I get the feeling this might be tree-related somehow.

Not suuuuuure how, just a guess...

Summons a dancing treant, 1hr CD. Dropped by Bashiok.

I believe the dancing bit comes from PAX East, where Holinka and Bashiok did a dance-off on the stage. Bashiok only agreed if Holinka's tweet about it got 100 RTs, which it did quite quickly. I followed along and livetweeted the "event" with pictures, which a lot of people liked at the time.

When a few Blizzard devs were asking for details to Bashiok's item, I suggested the dancing item and everyone involved in the dance-off liked the idea!

FYI the CM known as Bashiok was formerly known as "Drysc" and his avatar was a glowing fel-corrupted tree. The "spirit of" and the fact that the transformation is an ent maybe be a reference to his CM past.

LOL the tree version of Bashiok you summon dances and if you talk to him his dialogue is: "Aren't you thankful?"

Wonder if any fellow D3 players were as amused by that as I was. :P

Aren't you thankful?

This is a must-have item for all the Resto Druids in Tree form.

Early in Diablo 3 Bliz nerfed the heck out of the Increased Attack Speed Stat, which they felt was too powerful. When the community cried against the nerf, Bashiok (A 'blue' community manager) posted essentially "We could have nerfed a lot of stuff, instead we only hit this, aren't you thankful?" It caused a lot of forum drama and aren't you thankful became a bit of a meme for a while in discussing any nerf or potential nerf in Diablo 3. Having Bashiok dance in Flames I'm pretty sure is a reference to all the forum backlash he received for that comment.

I think there's an MLG parody reference going on here, too. The mob that drops this is surrounded by Taumeisters which cast a spell (couldn't find it on wowhead, I want to say it was liquid life?) that's casting Mountain Dew at you. On top of that, you get this blazing ent (smoking weed).

Judging by the comments there are a few other references going in here, too.

Above is is Bashiok´s famous post. Definately a reference to this item assuming when you talk to the tree it says "Aren't you thankful" as said in that forum post by Bashiok, the CM and Bashiok's Avatar is also a tree by the looks of it..

A must-have now, I'd say.

Today, July 31st was Bashiok's last day as Community Manager.

May the spirit of Bashiok ever be with us.

with the start of the war of thorns with a bunch of friends and people of the server we started using this toy outside of the alliance dalaran hall
to taunt and dance around it, you know, as the toy itself summons a burning dancing tree
