This is an incredibly useful spell while grinding, especially in early contested zones like Hillsbrad and Arathi Highlands.
You wouldn't believe the number of times times that, after fighting a large group of enemies, I've had my voidwalker cast this to heal himself and accidentally revealed a rogue/feral druid getting ready to jump me.

The automatic use of this ability at 20% is pretty worthless since it doesn't heal for the increased amount.
At 50 it has 6006 health for me right now (with my 429 stamina), so an extra 30% max health would bring it up to 7807. At 20%, it'll go from 1201 to 1561, essentially a heal for 360, which is only about a 6% heal.

When doing big pulls, use this near the beginning of the fight.
