Description
Grants a 10% max health buff to all allies inside the radius and provides a free resurrection if anyone dies within its 30-second duration.
This is a choice node with Earth Wall Totem (5% of the Shaman’s HP as absorb shields). Pick this **only when necessary**, not just for the sake of assigning it.
Does not work through overkill damage (e.g., a solo-soaked mechanic dealing 200%+ of a player's effective HP).
**A note on Totems:** Two talents provide CDR to all totems: Water Mastery (~5 sec per min) and Totemic Surge (-6 sec). These are already factored into the totem’s cooldown.

How To Assign
Best used in fights where frequent deaths occur or where additional raid-wide effective health is critical.
