Phaelia Resto4Life Says “Farewell” on Twisted Nether

Bre and Fimlys of the Twisted Nether blogcast very graciously invited me onto their show this week to talk about my decision to close Resto4Life and what will become of Blog Azeroth and the World Tree Project. If you’re looking for a little more insight into my thought processes and future plans, I’d encourage you to give it a listen!

Thanks, Fim and Bre! It has been a tremendous honor to share the blogosphere with you both!

P.S. Apologies for the heavy breathing. My mic is just awful!

    I really enjoyed it! :)

    The breathing was only a LITTLE distracting…

    :P

    That was a lot of fun to listen to! My mic does the same thing, don’t worry ^^

    You sound like you’ll be a very nice, nurturing mother =) It’s sad to see you go, but maybe someday you’ll be able to grace us with your leafy presence again!

    Thanks, guys! :-) I only just realized this morning that I have a professional microphone we bought for Rock Band that I could probably have used instead. DOH!

    If it’s a headset microphone, it helps if it’s positioned off to the side of your head, rather than right in front of your mouth, that way breathing doesn’t hit the mic.

    Phae, though I don’t play a druid (and probably never will), I wanted to thank you for the awesomeness you supply on a daily basis. Though I won’t lie to you and tell you I check your blog directly, as I tend to follow the link from Bells blog (as I’m a parasite there), I do check it on a bi-daily basis, and it has always been the shining example of what all blogs should strive for: entertaining, informative, and engaging.

    Best of luck to your youngin’, and if it’s a female, keep her away from people like me. And if it’s a male, tell him confidence is the key. To everything. Everywhere.

    If your posts about an online game are any indication, which to some degree I suppose they are, I’m sure you will make a great mother.

    Cheers, love.

    Phaeeeee! I was just reading one of your posts on glyphs and it hit me again that you won’t be updating this again, and it filled me with immense sadness. Once again, trying to tamper it with some joy of your new bundle of joy. :D

    On topic: I really enjoyed the discussion you guys had. Make your own blog! k go!

    Very sad to see you go..I only recently…since WOTLK….started playing a Resto Druid and found your sight via BRK’s website (Old main was a hunter). Well I’ll need to find a new place to get my ’sage’ advice from but thank you so much for taking me from Zero to Hero(or Valorous) on the healing meters and giving me enough clear understanding, of everything from the class to how to build effective healing macros, to carry my own weight. Best wishes and CONGRATULATIONS!

    Just purchased two shirts, Phae (last day for the discount!).

    As a new resto druid, I’m sad to see this great resource go, but am quite happy for you, Mr. Phae and the sapling on the way.

    Grace and peace to you all,
    Baz

    Sad to hear you are closing down, it’s funny, I’m only just starting to blog and to me blogging seems like the new upcoming thing, and then to see that other people are past that point and are actively deciding to stop. Well, I guess it shows that things go around and around.

    Fare well!

    It’s sad to see such a great resto druid blog come to an end. Your closing of this site actually inspired me to start a druid blog of my own, though I know your blog set the bar much higher than most of us could ever hope to strive for. Best of luck with everything the future has in store for you.

    Always,
    Lissanna of Elune

The Sprout(ed) Seed (80)

David
Congratulations! Cute baby!

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.

@Terrorpaw: This information is vastly outdated. Notice that the article indicates patch 3.0.8 while the current version is 3.3. The amount of haste needed for resto druids to reach 1 second GCD has been shuffled considerably. I’ve been poking around on this site and I find it likely that much of the information here might be outdated.

Terrorpaw
Not to distract from your information, but this is confuddling to me. Everyone on the druid forums just touts that with CF and GOTEM you should see 735 haste on your character sheet? Are they just dead wrong?

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 :(

Over a year and a half later this post is still worth it’s weight in gold! Hope you and your family are all well Phae. :) *hugs* .-= Softi´s last blog ..Dum di dum di dum =-.

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.
