Mystic Enchants

Change

Guardians of the Grove has undergone an extensive rework pending next restart. Treants will now cast HoTs on a target even if they already have that HoT allowing up to 3 applications of Rejuvenation as an example.

Treants will now actually cast Swiftmend, they weren't before, and will do so when their randomly selected target is in mortal danger (less than 40%). Treants will spend significantly less time standing around wasting their global cooldowns on no actions. Treants will now apply stacks of lifebloom to targets if they don't have one but due to the potency of lifebloom they won’t stack lifeblooms together on one target. Treants will now cast Healing Touch (in PvE only just like Regrowth). Treants will now cast Regrowth on targets even if they already have the Regrowth HoT.
