Please add the fire cat form to the barbershop once you get Fandral’s Flamescythe. I know they did this in retail and they made it permanent in SoD as well. I think it’s only fair that they allow us to customize our Feral forms in Cata as well. Besides, we won’t get any real customization until Legion, so this would be a nice placeholder

would be nice if they don’t make feral druids have to farm the seeds or get the toy to be a flame kitty
I mean, by all means ask for and get whatever you want, but at what point do you just go play Retail?

if getting a feature that * checks notes * changes the way you look in cat form, is all it takes for this game to be retail then all the SoD players should be up in arms about that atrocity

SoD is a Frankenstein version of retail though.

I mean, we’re talking about Cataclysm Classic; we’re well into Retail category, in my opinion already. Of note, I’m not trying to say Retail = bad, Classic = good. I’m just generally curious whenever people ask for changes that legit exist in Retail.
If you’re playing both and like Retail so much you want its changes ported to Classic, so you can enjoy it more, cool. If not, what’s the take here?
Might as well buff feral druids while they are at it
I don’t enjoy retail though. I haven’t enjoyed the game since Legion. And I’m really hoping they don’t do Legion classic. I like Cata through WoD and I just want them to add more features to Cata. They already made the Fire druid form possible in SoD, so it’s not like it’s something they can’t do.

I’m not saying it isn’t something they could do. They can do almost anything. What they do in or for SoD though isn’t necessarily what they “should” do for any other version of the game.
Anyway, Cata is in my opinion, at least Retail enough that it’s reasonable to ask for any Retail change. But it’s also reasonable to wonder why you’re not just playing Retail.
I wonder myself also. I tried it for a bit. It feels like I’m already way behind and will never catch up. I hate that feeling.
If they removed all the QoL and scaling and graphical changes to Retail, I would probably play it. Currently, I’m enjoying Cata as it is right now. It’s where I spend most of my gaming time.

Feral Druids are in dire need of a buff! It’s incredibly frustrating that Blizzard considers it acceptable for Feral Druids to have the most complex rotation among all melee classes, yet they remain stuck at F-tier damage. Meanwhile, other classes with much simpler rotations are sitting comfortably at S-tier!
That’s how I felt from Legion to Shadowlands. I don’t know about DF as I skipped that expansion, and I also don’t know much about TWW, but I hated borrowed power systems so much. It felt like you had a never ending treadmill and if you fell behind or wanted to play alts, you could never get caught up. I’m really happy they made Cata servers

I’d not see the issue here.
Cata already has other retail appearance rules. Like the glaives are not accessible to any class in the game now for appearances. Its a DH rule. and we don’t have DH’s yet.
no retail is easy to catch up its full of Catch up mechcanics which is really what killed wow that Plus seaonal gear was also bad!!!
But Cata already has that. They have Valor welfare gear, which some of the pieces are apart of the tier set. They also have 365 pieces from the Molten Front. So there’s already tons of catch up gear.
For me, what killed retail is borrowed power and M+ dungeons. In order to keep up with the current power system, (Azerite, Artifact Power, etc…) you had to grind non stop, and if you played alts, you were severely punished for it. I’m an altoholic. I love making tons of alts and playing several classes each expansion, and Legion completely destroyed that for me. So I don’t play retail much anymore.
those arent even in the game.
Thats much later
Tell Everyone you didnt play OG cata without telling everyone you didnt play OG Cata!!!
Might as well make it a bear fire form since there’s almost no feral mono cats that play anymore since blizzard decided to ignore the class and force feral to either quit, or beartank or bearweave to be bottom dps
Fire chicken
That gets fixed later with glyphs to take a ghostly apparition form of race.
It be cool to see no doubt. But these devs are thinking it getting changed later is lone less thing to do most likely.
