The White Moa is a charmable animal that can be found in the Far Shiverpeaks. It appears to be a distant relative of the Moa and Black Moa, although much less hostile. It actually runs away if a character attempts to charm (unlike other charmable animals, which turn hostile). There is no need to cancel the skill to chase after it; the charm will succeed as long as you activated the skill while within range.

[edit] Locations

• Far Shiverpeaks (White Moa flocks appear randomly, and somewhat rarely)
  • Drakkar Lake (directly south of the exit to Sifhalla)
  • Jaga Moraine (circling the wurm breeding grounds around a small peak)
  • Varajar Fells (southwest of Olafstead, near the first group of bisons)
• The Battle Isles
  • Zaishen Menagerie Grounds (levels 5, 12, 15, and 20 depending on unlock progress)

[edit] Notes

• The White Moa flock spawns very infrequently, so players may have to re-zone several times before getting the flock in their instance.
• A white Moa flock usually runs if you approach.
• Unlike most pets, a white Moa appears as an ally (light green label color) instead of a normal NPC and it does not turn hostile upon activation of Charm Animal.
• Cannot be death leveled in the wild through traditional ways, since they are found as allies and will run once approached.

Anomaly.

White Moa seems to use the same calls as a Flamingo, rather than that of a regular Moa Bird.

• Hearty, Playful, Elder, Aggressive, and Unevolved White Moas deal piercing damage, while Dire White Moas deal slashing damage.
• Unlocking cost: 1 plus 100 or 10,000 Balthazar Faction (Prestige, Tyria)
• If you cast Charm Animal before they begin to run, it will complete even if they get away.
