Talk:Moonkin Form
From WoWWiki
Moonkin form looks terrible! It looks like the costume shop is back open, with a special on chicken suits. For the final form, I think Blizzard could have done a lot better. It should have been a disguise one instead, so that the Druids could sneak into enemy territory, detected only by high awareness, like the "Perception" ability the humans have. What animal is it supposed to be, anyway?
Well, at least the Night-Elf one has a scary look to it. The Tauren one has nothing!
List
Someone with more knowledge of OOMkin leather should start a list of suitable gear and where to find it, simply because its very very difficult to find. I just swapped specs because my guild has too many resto druids, and I'm have a heck of a time just getting blue replacements for my purple healing gear. I currently look like a mage who decided a hide of the wild was a good choice... Roffler 15:26, 3 August 2006 (EDT)
Perhaps someone can add PvP tips? -Omacron
I disagree! Moonkin form is extremely sexy. Seriously. Gold-tawny-white with moose horns and a cute beak...what's wrong with it? Plus, its dance...*gasp*. Hot. So hot.

I removed the following note:
- With the addition of the spell Cyclone the Moonkin can replace a mage or warlock's group role with it's own CC.
Cyclone has diminishing returns and is therefore not suited for keeping a mob CC'd for > 10 seconds. Sad, but true.
Removed a note about the dance that was inaccurate. Dragonteuthis 20:44, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Tanking
It would appear that Moonkin form actually has some tank potential, as evidenced by this forum post: [1]. The character involved claims to have tanked 7/15 heroic dungeons, and well as a few bosses in Karazhan, in Moonkin form, mainly using +resilience PVP gear. Could we mention the potential of moonkin tanking on this page? Ygoloxelfer 13:50, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- I mentioned it on Tank#Secondary Tank Classes and mentioned it briefly here. There's the question of where to put information, a la Paladins as tanks, since Druids as tanks concentrates on bear form. --Quamarett 17:28, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Wouldn't hurt to put it on the 'druids as tanks' page, as it's a druid, tanking. I personally tanked up to UBRS as moonkin, at level, before BC. Hard with no grab aggro moves but can be done with careful management. --Azaram 05:07, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
- A Starfire/Moonfire combo is useful for pulling a mob off a clothy; I did it all the time in Scarlet Monastery (even before I had Moonkin Form) to get mobs off our Priest, and we weren't even using a tank! Felindre

When?
What patch did Moonkin form first appear in? --Azaram 21:05, 9 January 2008 (EST)
