Lightwell

Lightwell is a Holy priest ability that conjures a very shiny healing well. Every second it will attempt to give party and raid members a 6 second buff (Lightwell Renew) that heals for a notable amount while the buff is active.

It is an exclusive choice node with Lightweaver.

Prior to patch 5.4.0, Lightwell did not heal targets automatically but instead required players to click on the well in order to receive healing. This functionality engendered a significant amount of complaints from priests and non-priests alike, although some argued that the greatest factor in the failure of Lightwell as a useful healing tool lay in the lack of education of the playerbase. Over time Blizzard granted progressive buffs to Lightwell, but the spell failed to receive whole-hearted acceptance by most players due to the requirement for their own active interaction, preferring to leave the healing to the healers.

Patch 5.0.4 introduced Glyph of Lightspring, providing priests with an alternative functionality for the well. Apparently this alternative was well-received, as with Patch 5.4.0 the new design was adopted as the default functionality of Lightwell.

• One of the loading screen tips once read "Click on the Lightwell... unless it's a Lightspring!".
• The tip was originally simply "Click on the Lightwell!", but this was changed some time after the introduction of the now defunct Glyph of Lightspring.
• The Lightwell appears as a rare card for the Priest class in Hearthstone. The flavor text reads: "It isn't clear if people ignore the Lightwell, or if it is just invisible."
