Phaelia Community Spotlight: Art from Andrige and More Blogs

Shiny Red Apple
by Triggerman

With the assistance of readers in resolving my Firefox-specific CSS issues, the left side of the page became worthy of a truly special artistic contribution from Andrige. Andrige illustrated and colored the Tree of Life you see at left, and I absolutely love it! Andrige also recently completed a new illustration of an unhappy Bear faced with now forbidden fruit, the dreaded [Shiny Red Apple]. Personally, I’d like to see the Blizzard developers try to tell a real bear that he can’t have an apple!

I also have a host of blogs to share with you, some of which are old, some of which are new, none of which are borrowed, but a few of which are blue:

  • FauxPaws
    A ridiculously cutely named blog from a Hunter and a Druid (the two classes often considered as the most prolific in the blogosphere) hailing from Kael’thas.
  • Flyv’s Warcraft Blog
    Flyv of Garona (US) writes a well-rounded and enjoyable Feral blog, sharing theorycraft, gear discussion, and news!
  • Golden Leaves
    Akhila of Nathrezim (EU) plays an endgame Restoration Druid. And a Tauren! Her leaves are a lovely color of yellow ochre.
  • Lady Jess
    Lady Jessymn of Khaz’Goroth (US) writes what is quickly becoming one of the “best-dressed” Priest blogs out there with a smattering of posts related to her Night Elf Druid.
  • Malicious
    The Unlife of a Death Knight. A brand new blog for a brand new class, the Death Knight! Learn about your OP Warlock twink replacement before you can even create her!
  • Nekkid Cow
    Grizz of Feathermoon (US) gives new meaning to the phrase “keep your pants on.” /shudder
  • The Nyxes
    Breaking the rule that Restoration Druids must have long, white hair (I swear you can recognize our spec from the hairstyle choice), Nyxtaru of Garona (US) instead has Lifebloom-colored hair.
  • Shifting Out
    Onionpeels of Windrunner (US) plays a Feral-gone-Restoration Druid with raiding and PvP experience.
  • ThinkTank
    Kalon of Quel’Dorei (US) has a certain predilection for getting his face bashed in … while keeping healers and DPSers everywhere safe from harm.
  • Vendor Trash
    Megalis of Shandris (US) is a Bear tank learning the ropes in Serpentshrine Caverns.

And just as a reminder, the deadline for submitting your Tree of Life pictures for the Arbor Day Challenge is a little more than two weeks away. I’ve gotten some really stunning submissions already, but I’m still waiting for yours!

The Sprout(ed) Seed (87)

tkc
15 short years till he wants to borrow the car! Cheers!

Phaelia
As much as I loved writing Resto4Life and am enjoying playing again (even if in a very limited capacity), I don’t have the time to devote to blogging anymore. Instead, I’ve been learning2play from Keeva at TreeBarkJacket.com and Lissanna at Restokin.com. :-) I am excited that BRK is back, though!

tkc
Soooo, with BRK back in action, I’m wondering if Phae will get recruited too.

CONGRATS on such a cute little one! <3 Jezi .-= Jezi´s last blog ..VIGIL =-.
The Belkin Nostromo N52 TE (73)

Marc
Hi, Too bad this blog is no longer maimtained. Thanks for you post though. I wanted to address the issue of lefties. I am on, and use the N52TE. I use a trackball with my right hand and the n52TE with my left, no problems.

I didn’t read the pages upon pages of comments so I don’t know if these issues have already been hit, but I can think of two things as a boomkin/tank druid that have helped immensely with my nostromo. First off, turn off the diagonals on the D-pad. Wow kindof accounts for these innately by combining vert/horizontal key presses. Having the nostromo keyed to do this is redundant and screws up movement. The second is key spam macro’s. I have my nostromo 6 buttom set to...
Andrige’s Shapeshift Skins (72)

Asher
Sweet thanks for sharing! And i thought I was the only one disappointed in WoW’s art and character customization! Let’s hope Cataclysm has more in the works of real visual art like this instead of middle school quality graphic farts!
Direct Healing in Wrath (103)

Phaelia
@Otta: This article is out of date and no longer relevant. I understand Nourish is now the preferred choice over Regrowth, though you should keep a RG on your tank for its HoT component. As the methods for finding this information are explained, someone should be able to apply them along with the new values to create an updated comparison. I, however, am not that person. :-)

Otta
Ok, just found this post, and it’s long and interesting, quick dumb question tho, the numbers for nourish with hots, is that the healing both by the nourish alone or also the hots that are running? I used to use regrowth and now use nourish, debate is whether to switch back. I also am specced into tranquil spirit – am guessing thats weird comapred to this info!
