Rejuvenate is an ultimate ability associated with the Defence skill. It requires 52 Defence and a shield or a shieldbow. When activated, Rejuvenate begins healing the user by 40% of their maximum life points with rapidly healing hitsplats over the course of 10 seconds with about 4% of the user's maximum life points are restored each second. The stat restoration restores to full any drained stats besides Prayer and Summoning. Removing the shield will instantly end the effect which will also prevent stat restoration.

Because of its strong healing power, Rejuvenate could potentially replace the need for food or any other source of healing during extended combat trips. Situations where Rejuvenate may be useful include Slayer assignments, player-vs-player activities, the earlier waves in the TzHaar Fight Cave and fighting bosses.

Rejuvenate has a similar effect to Guthix's Blessing. They both have their pros and cons. Not needing a shield for Guthix's blessing can be quite handy as it saves the off-hand slot or inventory space. The Guthix butterfly that does the healing from Guthix's blessing can be killed by enemies though, which they often will, making it not useful to use during combat as you'd heal only part of the 40% yet you still have to wait for the 5 minute cooldown. Furthermore, Guthix's blessing doesn't restore stats like Rejuvenate does, and it has an 85 constitution requirement, as well as completion of The World Wakes.

Trivia

  • Rejuvenate works similarly to the former Special attack of the Enhanced excalibur. The strongest version of Excalibur healed 400 life points, contrasting to the 40% healing of Rejuvenate. For a player with level 99 constitution, this resulted in an almost identical effect.
  • Rejuvenate can be seen as the shield equivalent to Guthix's Blessing, with an added stat restoration effect.
  • When first released into the combat beta, Rejuvenate could cure poison. However, this effect was removed sometime in October 2012.
  • As of the 14 January 2013 update, the cooldown time of Rejuvenate was increased from 60 seconds to 5 minutes.
  • The animation for Rejuvenate may be a reference to the popular BBC drama "Doctor Who", in which the main character, The Doctor, regenerates in a similar fashion to heal and save himself from death.
  • In order to reset the cooldown on the Rejuvinate ability, the player can log out to the lobby and then log back in. This can eliminate the need for food during long combat trips, although it is not that useful in PvP situations.
