With only stamina, hit, and crit, this could actually be put to use by any dps class, both casters and melee/ranged. Not that I would personally recommend using an off-hand frill to melee and hunters (Like the Book of Clever Tricks... nice for everyone, but most classes would probably be better off with an off-hand weapon or a 2h ).

But who wouldn't pass up the chance to turn into a giant wolf?

The transformation uses the standard old-world wolf model. It looks like the Shaman Ghost Wolf without the translucency and is a bit larger. It has the same idle animations (scratch, sniff) and of course it can /dance. It shares its cooldown with the Super Simian Sphere. The transformation lasts 2 minutes and ends when the book is no longer equipped.
Druids: using it while in forms kicks you to caster form and switching from caster to another form cancels the transformation (tested with moonkin)

This item is actually a placeholder on the recipe. When you craft it, it makes one of several different Rituals at random that turn you into different color wolves: Red, White, Black, or Grey. Making several of these on PTR I managed to make White, Red and Black, but there is also Grey in the spells on PTR Wowhead so I think it's safe to extrapolate that is the last possibility. These rituals have the same item name and statistics but the Use line has the color you got in it. Different color rituals share a CD with each other as well.

The Wolf spell is called New Moon

if only it made you a worgen...at least we're getting down that path

I think perhaps the reason your wolf turns you into a single color is because the book is a specific color. You get a red, grey, white or black book. The text will say "turns you into a red wolf" or whatever. that's not random, only the book you make is random.

Please read other peoples post before posting such things. It has already been said that you gain different books at random.

Apparently this is one of the single rarest items in all of northrend professions to find someone who can make. I've been trying for a week now on my server and not a soul can make it. It's well worth the effort to farm it, because so little people both to get it you can make and sell them for insane amounts of money having literally no competition on the server.

Wolves are supposed to be afraid of the moon, I thought.

Kommentar von metalsyko

I'm fairly certain that any sane player on any RP realm that actually RPs hates this item with a burning, seething passion.

I know that if I see one more blood elf Deathknight with this thing claiming to be a werewolf and running amok for 2 minutes in the Wayfarer's Rest I'm going to find the developer that created this item and bludgeon them with a shoe.

Kommentar von Amourysse

If you use this item with the Vestment of Summer, you become a dancing wolf that looks like it's trying to cast a fireball. Wolfmage for the win!

OMG WHAT THE HELL WOW WAS MY SANCTUARY FROM GETTING OUT OF TWILIGHT CRAP AND WHAT DOES BLIZZ DO BRING IT IN THE GAME
DAMN YOU BLIZZ DAMN YOU

Kommentar von Cheesecube

"Use: Transform into a giant wolf."

Shape shifting does not classify as being a werewolf.

Kommentar von Dole

Look. I am not a Twilight fan, but this has to be a reference.
In patch 3.1 two new off-hand books came out.
Twilight Tome
Rituals of the New Moon.
Twilight and New Moon are the first two books in the Twilight series.
Come on, I know it's not far fetched and I am not a fan or anything but it's obvious.
Oh, and they have stuff do to with werewolves.

Kommentar von 446413

The "New moon buff" has a 2 min durotation. If you remove the item from your offhand, the buff will go off.

Kommentar von 459580

Soooo.... Because the 'author' of the twilight series picked a whole bunch of cliches and everyday things means anything that's even vaguely similar=TWILIGHT REFERENCE!1! ...?

Seriously. Just... STOP it. You guys go back and pick ANY random song called 'twilight' and somehow say it's speaking about the book. I've seen morons commenting on Boa's (UK) song Twilight, saying it just SPEAKS about Bella and nopersonalitysparkledude. But the song has nothing to do with the book, and was made WAY before this 'book' was ever even thought of.

Not everything that has to do with cliches and everyday things just HAS to be linked to twilight, no matter when it was made.

Kommentar von Youtomia

The wolf buff has a 2 minute duration.
It seems to walk very slowly. You are silenced and pacified, so you can't cast any spells or use any abilities.
However, you can still eat/drink, use potions, craft and enchant items.

Kommentar von 31980

There are two fist weapons that drop from ZG (panther boss) -- that if you get both - chance on ranged/melee attack, you transform into a worgen looking thing for a few moments. Complete with sound effects.

I asked the daughter of a friend of mine, she's into Twilight, she tells me that these are the colors of the werewolfs, grey, red, white and black, in the novel. Haven't really check this out, but who's gunna argue with a ten year old girl? :)

And lol to all the ppl who downrate the ppl who find the popculture refs in WoW before they do, there's tousands of them in WoW, makes it a whole lot easier for those who write this 'lore' to add their favorite movies or books or what ever into the game, then having to come up with new stuff for every item, person, ect in WoW.

PS
Not a Twilight fan :)

Kommentar von 500414

Just gonna add that if in shadowform when using this you will stay shadow color as giant wolf.

Kommentar von Demki

This is most likely blizzard poking fun at Twilight fans.

Kommentar von 412367

So this item was released in patch 3.1 which went live in April of 2009 and Twilight: New Moon was released nationwide in November of 2009. I can't see how the item is copying the movie that came after it. If anything Twilight copied WoW =P

Edit: Just want to clarify that the date I listed for the Twilight release date is for the movie in theaters, not the dvd.

While not a fan of the series, I'm also not a fan of outright ignorance. It's a pretty obvious reference to the series, arguing the release date of the movie compared to the release of this item is insane considering this was a book long before it was a movie (You know, those little rectangle things with lots of letters...)

Judging simply by the fact that Blizzard has inserted many, and I strongly emphasize the word "many", pop culture references into WoW, it would just be idiotic to really argue the obvious. Downrating the comments simply stating the truth just because you don't like the reference to begin with is just ignorant and hateful.

I will agree with you that vampires that sparkle more than Elton John and are styled after the guy from The Cure in his youth suck imho, I won't deny that this item is just another way of Blizzard sneaking in easter eggs in for people who actually ARE fans and that in itself is pretty cool.

Kommentar von 630737

So is this crafted or dropped?
I read a comment saying it's random when crafted. But I just want the real deal- craftable or drop or something else?

Kommentar von 616859

what is the point of transforming into a wolf if you cant attack as a wolf?

Kommentar von warvik

As this hasn't been explicitly said yet, this off-hand can be made by scribes using this recipe Technique: Rituals of the New Moon which drops off the Silverbrook denizens in Grizzly Hills.
