I generally try to write these on Saturday or Sunday mornings, but I missed this weekend, so here you are!

Some great articles have been posted in the past week, despite the temptation to copy-and-paste class-specific patch notes. Here are a few of my favorites:

    Warcraft Card: Annissa by StarintheGutter
    Warcraft Card: Annissa
    by StarintheGutter
  • I Want You to Hit Me as Hard as You Can by Runycat of Unbearably HoT
    An extremely thorough and entertaining analysis of the value of hit-capping your Bear and Cat Form. The Fight Club-themed images alone make it worth a look, even to those who aren’t Feral!
  • l2pvp: The Trinket by Horns of Yet Another Warlock Nerf
    An essential guide to the best use of your PvP trinket, both in Battlegrounds and Arenas. Recommended for anyone that PvPs, casually or otherwise.
  • Spellpower — What does it mean to you? by Saresa of Destructive Reach
    A review of the change to +Healing and +Spell Damage we can expect in Wrath of the Lich King.
  • Wrath Mana Regen Calculations by Sylvanra of Moon Chicken
    An examination of the mana regeneration that a Moonkin can expect to see from his new Moonkin aura as well as a Balance-application of the information presented in my Omen of Clarity article. With math!
  • 3 Ways to Get Your Arena Mingle On by Megan of Out of Mana
    Looking to polish your PvE skills through a little PvP? Megan shows you how to meet like-minded (and similarly geared) individuals who might be interested in teaming with you!
  • Death Knight Tutorial by Lume the Mad
    If you have no compunctions about spoilers and can’t get enough information about your future plate-wearing, disease-causing, gravelly-voiced DK, this tutorial will walk you through the entire 4-5 hour questline. Very thorough (I admit, however, that I only skimmed since I want to be surprised)!

Project Lore

You might also enjoy Project Lore, a site that includes video “walkthroughs” of various TBC dungeons such as Hellfire Ramparts and Heroic Slave Pens. The videos are well-edited and fun, and I especially enjoyed hearing the conversation that resulted from a wipe. In addition to their gameplay videos, they have a frequently updated blog and some as yet rudimentary class guides. Their site is advertisement heavy (2-3 large banners), but it’s worth checking out.

Blogroll Additions

This week I have four new Druid blogs to share with you! Welcome to the World Tree, you guys!

  • For the Herd! For the Horde!
    Bumwaller of Vashj (US) writes primarily about Druids but includes some topics related to his Hunter and Shaman alts.
  • Leveling a Hordie
    Ithilien of Arathor (EU) has recently switched alliances and is rerolling her Night Elf Druid as a Tauren! /moo
  • Moon Chicken
    Sylvanra of Smolderthorn (US) joins the rank of plucky (get it? cause she’s a chicken!) Balance bloggers with Moon Chicken, a blog that contains theorycraft, class news, and spec commentary.
  • Trizophenie’s Weblog
    Trizophenie of Forscherliga (EU) plays a Feral Druid in an SSC/TK-level raiding guild.

“I Healed AV” by Rusco of Moonrunner (US)

This is a rewrite of “I Kissed a Girl (and I Liked it)” from Katy Perry and and tells the story of a Feral Druid who discovers a love for healing one day in Alterac Valley. It was written and submitted by Rusco, author of Dazed and Confused.

 

This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, deaths at hand
Lost my discretion
It’s not what, I’m used to
Just wanna try it out
I’m curious for it
Caught my attention

I healed AV and I liked it
The look of my resto hots tick
I healed AV just to try it
I hope my GM don’t mind it
It felt so good
It felt so right
I might even respec tonight
I healed AV and I liked it
I liked it

No, I don’t know what I’m doin’
It doesn’t matter
This is my experimental game
Just night elf nature
It’s not what, good droods do
Not how they should go raid
My head gets so confused
Hard to obey

I healed AV and I liked it
The look of my resto hots tick
I healed AV just to try it
I hope my GM don’t mind it
It felt so good
It felt so right
I might even respec tonight
I healed AV and I liked it
I liked it

Us droods we are so magical
Dark skin, soft fur, so huggable
Hard to resist so versatile
Too good to deny it
Ain’t no big deal, it’s innocent

I healed AV and I liked it
The look of my resto hots tick
I healed AV just to try it
I hope my GM don’t mind it
It felt so good
It felt so right
I might even respec tonight
I healed AV and I liked it
I liked it

    Um that song is not from the little mermaid. You were thinking of Kiss the Girl.

    That rewrite was based off of “I kissed a girl (and I liked it)” from Katy Perry.

    Just a heads up.

    @Sylvanra: Very welcome!

    @Olc: O.o That makes a LOT more sense! Haha, sorry! /blush

    :D thanks for the spotlight. Sorry for added confusion. I probably could have made it more clear where the song came from.

    If anyone is interested in covering it, go ahead. Just let me know! I don’t really have the voice for such a song, or really any song, so I haven’t given it a try.

    The original song for that raised eyebrows for me…

    Woah, now I’ll have to update mor regularly to stay in the World Tree *shivers in fear of maybe being too lazy to do so*

  • Gravatar Phaelia

    @Rusco: On the plus side, you introduced me to a really great new song. I feel so old, though, to have not heard it before now!

    @Loronar: Me, too. Especially given what I originally thought it came from! But it was fun. Video is definitely NSFW if you are thinking of looking it up!

    @Runycat: :-)

    @Eglador: Hahaha … well you only have to update once a month. That shouldn’t be TOO hard!

  • Gravatar Valenna

    lulz. I heard of the song and I’m like four times your age. =P

    Though I didn’t pick up on it at first. I kept wondering where the “tra lalallalala la” was in the new version.

The Sprout(ed) Seed (79)

Tsuki
I’m so late that little Colin ain’t swimming on his mini-shirt anymore by now. And Mr. Phae and the classic “drooling daddy” face, priceless. Grats Phae and family!

Rayvis
First I want to say congratulations on your new baby boy, albeit a little late. As a Druid myself, formerly Resto even, I found this to be pretty awesome. I had my first child in October, also a boy. He just happens to have the exact same onesie that you’re little boy is wearing in the video. It’s my favorite outfit of his because I am my son’s superhero! As a side note, I hope you’re enjoying your new seed. They grow like weeds though and you start wondering...

Snowmaidn
I certainly never looked that good when I sprouted my seedlings. Thanks for all the great advice on this site. Things have changed a lot over the years and 60 was the highest you could go when I last played before this year. I got back into the game again about 6 months ago after taking a 4 year break when I was pregnant with my daughter.

Zackoria
Curses! I’m so behind the times!! Grats Phae on the new kiddo! Now just wait till he’s a teenager! XD Many heart felt wishes! ^_^

Warmama
OMG! I just found out! Congratulations! As you’ve recently discovered, being a MaMa is the absolute best. Who knew you could love someone so much, right? All the best to you and your family.
Gift of the Nerfmother (14)

Ck
This is actually really useful – thanks for this! Is it still current and user friendly? I somehow managed to get up to 740 Haste without trying, and even with scrapping all haste enchants and gems – I am still languishing on 723 :(
Ark Inventory (2)

Kengur
I’ve been using this addon since I started playing some over a year now. I can’t imagine wow without it since. To swap bags you can right click the one you wish to free up and select ‘filter’. Then drag all the stuff into another bag. Also you could just swap a bag from inventory to your bank still full of stuff.
Debuffing Your Focus Target (19)

Catychlor
Thanks for posting this! What an amazing macro! I’m a Shaman and I use it for Flame Shock (dot)/Lava Burst and Wind Shear (spell interrupt)/Earth Shock (debuff).
Mailbag: A Deforested Restoration Build? (26)

DM
:( I….. I like tree form.. :waddles away quickly:
Thorns Damage Scaling with Spell Power (18)

blake
I think they changed it to use caster’s spellpower now, worth swapping specs and gear to buff yourself if you are a feral tank then i’d imagine
