Best Restoration Druid Gems

Meta Gems: Ember Shadowspirit Diamond or Burning Shadowspirit Diamond
Red Gems: Willful Ember Topaz, Brilliant Inferno Ruby, or Reckless Ember Topaz
Blue Gems: Purified Demonseye
Yellow Gems: Mystic Amberjewel

For meta gems, we recommend that you use Ember Shadowspirit Diamond for additional base mana, but due to the BiS trinkets for Restoration Druid that will provide mana reductions on your spells, Burning Shadowspirit Diamond can be a preferable option. It will provide better throughput for your hots and casted spells.

There are multiple Red gems you can choose from, and should be chosen based on the current gear set and secondaries you have on your character. If your character needs to reach the 3000 Resilience breakpoint, choose Willful Ember Topaz. If not, prioritize using Reckless Ember Topaz to reach your 12.5% Haste breakpoint. When you reach all of those breakpoints, use up the rest of your red gem slots with Brilliant Inferno Ruby.
