So – when is this going to happen? Soon™?
The last time we got any was about 3 years ago, I think we all deserve some love for players that enjoy the cosmetic aspects.

Do you know what they would need to do to add new forms?
They would have to copy and paste the code for a current form and then replace all instances of one model ID with another one.
Do you really think they have 10 minutes to spend on that?

They are too busy making the next round of night fae skins. If you think they are finally going to give druids new skins you’re kidding yourself.

And those aren’t even new skins. Their existing models and skins with the blue swirly graphic added to them.
If you barkskin when in soulshape it turns off the blue swirly effect and you can see their brown bears from highmountain, green haired dawnstriders from Val’shara etc.

Exactly, I find this pretty insulting. Rather than making forms for a class that has had nothing since Legion - even though there are covenants which have all these cosmetics - there are no covenant specific forms which I find silly.
if they do - they better be new and different…like how cool the mage tower ones were. i don’t think anyone will settle for lower of a quality
well not me anyway 
I doubt we will ever get druid skins again until we have an expansion with Elune and the “Life” pantheon. Because those are deities druids worship. Maybe, just maybe they will give us cool druid skins because we are killing / interacting with NPCs related to druids.
I want the opposite of a new skin. I want a nude skin. I want my Tauren to be One with Nature and run around in my Birthday Suit. My Bear Form would be glorious with nothing but my World Tree and Moonglades hanging for the world to behold.

That would be a very nice addition that’s relatively simple to do. It can even be just a raid drop.
I can’t speak for all druids, but I’m all about the nightmare.
I think they should start adding natural forms that already exist in the game, like polar bears, various stag and doe forms, cats. They should update the original forms, some of which look awkward. Especially cheetah form is an abomination that should look like an actual cheetah.
Let inscriptionists make and sell them.

Still rocking the same Moonkin form since Vanilla. It’s astonishing that Balance Druid’s don’t have any Moonkin form customization. In 17 years they can’t make new ones??

Technically there were the allied race forms in BFA.
Exactly like why does a troll druid have night elf ears sticking out of their moon chicken!? Still. Like come on.

Fun fact, trolls came before Night Elves so technically - any resemblance to Nelfs is the Nelf stealing our appearance.
The reason Mage Tower ones are so nice is because they were a ‘challenge’ to obtain. I personally hope they stay that way.

That’s actually incorrect, the skins for all legendaries were already created and then they wanted a way to put them in-game and came up with the mage tower.
They were not made for the mage tower - aka they could come up with that quality of skin for anything they just don’t.
Regardless the Mage Tower challenge still ended up with objectively the ‘nicest’ skins. Even if the comment I replied to just said artifact skins in general, each artifact skin still required some bit of work to obtain. I simply believe new skins of that ‘aesthetic level/quality’ should still require some work, that was my bottom line.

I can agree with that, it’s just like why mythic level gear tends to be more collected / enjoyed because of the rarity and quality of the designs.
I think that designs / quality artwork for skins should come a bit more frequently than once every 4 years+ and I think most wouldn’t mind doing a challenge to obtain them.
It’s also worth pointing out that by the last tier of legion the mage tower wasn’t really a challenge due to the scaling - I don’t think the ‘it was a challenge to get’ argument makes much sense. Sure some people got them when it was hard, but in reality the MT challenges by the end of Legion were no harder than pre-nerf Torghast. So it’s more of a “I’m cool because I played during a limited time event” rather than a “I have awesome skills at the game” thing.
This is true they did but the ears they have sticking out are the overly long that trolls do not have
