That is all (for now).

Heh I found that thread just now ... the Realms (Test) Forum is handy.
Another Moonkin user actually said something positive on another thread in there: that the Moonkin can melee pretty well with a mace and Improved Thorns and zapping Moonfire mainly when OOC procs -- basically just keeping the Moonfire dot ticking. That was his route to success dueling warriors. Thorns will be nasty for catform and rogue-type attackers too I'm sure. I recall reading Thorns will now max out at about 40 damage returned.
Roots + bandage should work fairly well too.
I suppose Moonkins should now regard themselves as primarily melee with some spell support, somewhat like Paladins. You'd want Str/Spi gear perhaps, and focus less on Int.
