Frustrating Druid Restriction: forms/transmog
I’m looking at all of these amazing weapon models in the Shadowlands alpha, and just getting disappointed as a Guardian Druid main knowing that I can’t use the weapon models and also use my hard-earned druid forms from the Legion artifacts.
For those who don’t know: The Feral and Guardian forms from the Legion artifacts are tied to the physical appearance of the artifacts themselves (daggers and bear claws). The frustration happens in this kind of scenario:
You are a Guardian druid who got an amazing new polearm that perfectly matches your transmog set. You are also extremely proud of your Balance of Power bear skin that you spent weeks earning. You visit your preferred transmog NPC to nail down your new transmog style. Then you remember: you CANNOT transmog this new weapon without LOSING your awesome bear skin. You have to CHOOSE to keep your awesome bear skin which requires the bear claws appearance, or choose to get rid of the bear claws and show off your new weapon, but lose your awesome bear skin. This is NOT a fun choice to have to make (especially for players who care a lot about aesthetics)
I would like to make a final request to Blizzard during this Alpha phase. Please allow druids to choose their bear/cat form appearances and their weapon appearances separately.
Thank you! - A friendly old bear.
