Phaelia Turkey Day 2008!

Published on November 27, 2008 by Phaelia

Happy Turkey day, everyone! I’m especially thankful to all of the readers who contributed pictures of their Moonkin. The turnout was greater than I anticipated, especially given how generally healing-oriented Resto4Life is! Thank you! And now, without further ado, here are the 2008 Turkey Day submissions:

Adremma Adremma of Sentinels (US) sends in the first of many examples of the improved quest coding that allows Druids to complete most quests while retaining their shapeshifted form! Personally, when I complete this quest, I’m going to do so in Tree of Life so that it looks like a yeti carrying firewood! Then again, maybe that’s not such a good idea!
AedosAedos of Aggramar (EU) is seen here chilling out with her undead buddy, Frosty, after defeating a Frost Drake in Dragonblight. If Frosty seems a little heftier than normal, it’s because Aedos has been feeding him a diet of Papa Hummel’s Old Fashioned Pet Biscuits. The hope being that a vegetarian diet will prevent Frosty from instead developing a taste for Turkey!
Bellwether Not wanting BRK to have all the pet-related fun, Bellwether of 4 Haelz has managed to acquire her own pet, this one a Ravager. She aspires to even greater heights, though, admitting that what she really wants is a rhino! Just imagine the ground tremors from a Moonkin and a rhino!
Copey Copey of Dunemaul (US) fixes a non-traditional Turkey Day feast by serving himself alongside fresh seafood. Now who’s going to tell the butterball that he’s already golden brown?
Hana Flash of Moonfire author Hana of Skywall (US) takes to the sky in Harry’s Bomber, no doubt on a mission to exact revenge on those who mocked her stubby wings in grade school!
Hibiscus John Marikel
Hibiscus of Terokkar (US), soon-to-be mother of two baby Boomkin A mysterious contributor, John, sends this snapshot of his Boomkin traveling overland. Poor Mistsaber! Marikel of Scarlet Crusade (US) learns the hard way that
Moonkin can’t fly.
 
NurowynEnjoying her new-found firepower, Nurowyn of Kilrogg (US) struts her stuff out in the Grizzly Hills. The two native Imperial Eagles seem less than impressed by her lack of avian dignity.
PhaeliaHere my Warlock guildmate Miaja has lured me into a dangerous trap, intending to enjoy a delectable Turkey Day dinner at my expense! Who can really blame her, though? After all, in Moonkin Form, I’m bigger than Hansel and Gretel put together!
Riverwish1Despite the extreme cold of Northrend causing her feathers stick together, Riverwish looks poised to throw a Starfire (or maybe a snowball) at yet one more quest mob. Fortunately, she persevered through the wind and snow to level 80 and is now happily back in Tree of Life, snuggling by the fire in Dalaran inn (though hopefully not too close).
Teranin1 Teranin2 Teranin3
Set for 600 Degrees and
Roast for 9 hours
POOR TERANIN!
Teranin of Skywall (US)
is a Master of the Drumsticks!
Charging into battle aboard
an engineered tank, Teranin
gives whole new meaning to
the term “Panzerkin”!
 
Thorn Glyph of Thorns author Thorn sets out on a Paul Revere-esque ride across the frozen tundras of Northrend, likely yelling “THE PILGRIMS ARE COMING!” and fleeing certain demise.
RoselineA common theme this year appears to be a celebration of the ability to ride all manner of mounts — and, in some cases, quest mobs. Here Tauren Druid Roseline of Dreadmaul (US) is seen galloping across Dragonblight astride a Blood Elf Paladin’s mount of all things!
WiseFox1 WiseFox2 Muffinator
Wise Fox submits this picture of his cunning method of avoiding becoming a turkey dinner! After this, Wise Fox will NEVER AGAIN lose his raid slot to a Mage! From this gory shot of cannibalism, I think Muffinator thought this
was a Halloween contest!

    Not to nitpick, but was Hana’s picture (from Flash of Moonfire) supposed to link to the blog and not a bigger version of the picture? Ditto for Thorn. Otherwise lots of fun!

    Hahahaha… I love being a moonkin. This was a good bit of sillyness to enjoy before heading off to the folks’ for dinner. :)

    I love Adremma’s. I’m so going to do that once I get to Storm Peaks.

    Wow, I’m amazed that the representation is so slanted to Alliance. I thought it would be *ahem* balanced, or even Horde-dominated. Interesting. Still, boom it up, saplings! Boom it up! Good show.

    I’m glad everyone enjoyed the turkey day pictures! Maybe next year we’ll have even MORE elaborate turkey forms to share (or maybe Blizzard will realize it’s pretty much impossible to make an Owlbear not look ridiculous and trade the form out for something a little more dignified).

    @Aedos: Whoops! Corrected, thank you.

    @Awlbiste: No, that was unintentional. I’ve fixed those now. Thanks!

    @Graylo: I’m very disappointed in you! Nevermind that I respecced and took my own picture just minutes before the deadline (/gasp!). You’ll just have to make it up to me next Arbor Day by respeccing broccoli!

    @Nim: Now that you mention it, R4L is awfully close to the blue and gold of Alliance … hmmm!

The Sprout(ed) Seed (87)

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.

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.

Costo
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...

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!
