I suppose that Balance at least has the option to dps in a vaguely human form so they can see their mogs, but I’m a little sad that Blizzard didn’t throw ferals a bone here. They have absolutely zero rewards from the new MT.
The ‘glow’ cat model was about as unique as the bear was for druids (it’s the only ‘flashy’ skin ferals have access to).
Certainly it wouldn’t be too much work to come up with a tweaked version of the glow cat model, or something analogous?
(Perhaps one of those funky blue fennec creatures from Shadowlands?)
Sparkle kitty is pretty unique, though not as unique as werebear. I’ll concede on that point. But at the end of the day, feral is in the same boat as guardian where you have a whopping 5 looks with varying colors.
It’s just a shame that feral isn’t getting a recolor too for people who missed it. I’m not going to throw a fit over it, but it’d be nice yanno?
Boomkin is fine. Glyph of stars covers that plenty. And boomkin forms are all ugly anyways, about the only purpose I can see to them is they at least make it obvious if you get knocked outta form from an action.
Yep! I think it’s just tied to a staff that drops off Fandral now.
Ehhh I don’t know about that. If you look at the faces they’re pretty similar.
Fire kitty is just a bit fuzzier because of all the particle effects, and because that picture is just someone taking a SS versus the Wowhead model image.
Ferals have zero rewards from the Mage Tower, as things stand.
I’d say that the MT cat model is almost as unique as the were-bear.
The legs and body also look a lot smoother. The lower poly count makes the fire cat really jagged and awkward (even moreso than the standard cat form, which can at least use darker forms to make it less apparent).
Regardless, I hope that Blizzard throws cat druids a bone and gives them something appealing from the Mage Tower.
“Balance have the astral form on glyph” Oh yes! The one who just recollor whatever gear you’re using as BLUE? YOU GOING TO RECOLLOR T20 SO BALANCE DRUIDS CAN RECOLOR IT AGAIN TO BLUE.
Very good. Also cool armor set to show off on Feral druids.
Would be nice to see Druids be able to transform into the Saberon from Warlords again.
For Moonkin, I would just add more glyphs to change colors or something. They don’t need to shower druids with a ton of new appearances. Other classes could use some attention, too.
Druids are the only shapeshifters in the game, they have some of the most unique armor sets, and they have new travel forms on the way. Among the races that can become druids, they each have very unique transformations and they have the werebear. They have neat glyphs, too.
I would argue that the only class that compares to druids are the warlocks. Everyone else is relatively boring in terms of unique options.
Besides, the werebear form is the only appearance that’s being added to the MT other than the new armor set recolors. It’s not because Druids are lacking in options; it’s because Blizzard knows how unique that model is and are making it available to druid players.
Mogs =/= class customization. Druids have their forms + transmog. Yes, you can’t see them in combat, but that’s kind of the druid’s whole identity… to be a shapeshifter. Plus, no one is looking at at my mog while we’re killing the raid boss anyway lol.
I’m not saying druids don’t deserve more appearances (I’m all for everyone getting more), but there’s no doubt that other classes could use some love too. Hunters get 500 pet options, new travel forms are coming + werebear… Would be nice to see others get some love too is all!
