Take all my strength into you and be whole once more!

Lay on Hands is a Holy-based spell that instantly fills your target with life. Considered an "emergency" ability, in that due to its long cooldown it should only be used when it's really needed. Lay on Hands causes [Forbearance], but only if the Paladin uses it on him/herself.

Talent improvement

• [Improved Lay on Hands] - (2 Ranks) Reduces cooldown by 2/4 minutes, adds 10/20% damage reduction buff.

Notes

• Tankadins can consider this as a long cooldown "oh s**t button". Turn on the auto-self cast option or create a macro. When your health is dangerously low, use it immediately to heal yourself back to full health.
• This ability is completely independent of the amount of Healing the caster has. It always heals the target for the amount of health the caster has.

Patch changes

• Patch 3.3.0 (2009-12-08): This ability will place Forbearance on the paladin if used on his or herself. It will not place Forbearance on others.
  
• Patch 3.0.2 (2008-10-14): Does not drain all of the player's mana anymore. Cooldown reduced to 20 minutes.
