Gnome druids. Vulpera druids.
Orc or BE druids is the day I bounce for good.
Give Forsaken a Wild God, and I’d accept them over Orcs and BE. At least Forsaken would represent Death, a cycle of nature.
Blood Elves were exiled and became what they are because they wouldn’t accept druidism. Why would they ever be druids?
If they become druids there’s a huge plothole: Blood Elves and Night Elves would have nothing to fight over.

Pandaren are first in line to learn druidism. They worship the August Celestials, Wild Gods who stuck around in Pandaria. They cherish balance and the circle of life. They are perfect. And they already have a bear form.
Teach 
Pandaren druidism!

Pandaren should’ve been druids from the get-go. Makes zero sense that they aren’t. They literally have, not one, but four Wild Gods they worship.

A Goregroth orc druid thread, must be a day that ends in Y.
Same. As I’ve argued before, those races should be at the bottom of the list for races that should get druids when orcs descended from the Breakers, rock giants that are inherently anti-nature given their relationship with the Primals, and blood elves are too detached from nature to take up druidism and have too many classes already (so I’m also fiercely opposed to them getting shaman).

Cat form is Saberon. Tree form is Botani! Bear form is… a Boulder.
Hey Malfurion, so listen. We know we killed your teacher and demi-god of the forest. But that’s all in the past. You should let us learn how to control plants and stuff.

Roll a shaman, then you can shape shift into a wolf all you want.

Can we stop trying to make this argument for every single dumb race/class combo?
It’s tired and it doesn’t actually support your argument.

Are you talking to me or the devs?
Druidism is suited to races that think themselves in the position to control nature.
Might be why Pandares are not druids.
To be accurate, they were exiled because they refused to stop practicing arcane magic which became a crime punishable by death. Not because they wouldn’t practice druidism. A lot of Night Elves are not druids. Just like all blood elves aren’t mages.
Also the forsaken are a crime against nature, that’s why undeath and nature oppose each other on the galactic pantheon of powers. Blood Elves according to the worldofwarcraft race page are moving away from arcane magic, or at least most are trying. Rediscovering roots of their past in Shadowlands isn’t farfetched. They’ve also spent a lot of time with the tauren druids and now an extended period of time with troll culture. Who’s to say they didn’t have an old wolf god they followed or could be introduced to either the tauren or troll practices and make them their own.
Um… troll druids, Zandalari druids, kultiran druids all have no connection to the emerald dream that the night elves do. And to a lesser extent neither do the tauren or high mountain.

The same one who taught druidism to Night Elves, taught it to the Tauren.
Due exactly to their similar connection to the nature, as the Night Elves praise Elune, the Tauren praise the Earth Mother, An’she, which is a solar deity said to be the “other eye” of Elune, which Tauren call Mu’sha.
"Such was the power of her gaze that the Earthmother closed one dreaming eye for every turning of the sky. Thus, her loving gaze turned day into night for the first dawning of the world."
"The Shu’halo (the tauren) arose to give thanks and prayer to their loving mother. There, in the endless fields of dawn, the children of the earth swore themselves to her grace and vowed to bless her name until the final darkening of the world."
“According to tauren mythology, Cenarius instructed them first in druidism as recounted in their myth, Forestlord and the First Druids. With the release of Wrath of the Lich King, it is strongly suggested that tauren were most likely the first students of Cenarius, as accounted for by a 10,000+ year old immortal tauren druid by the name of Xarantaur. There is still debate whether this character is considered canon, but Xarantaur suggests in the game that while he and his brethren were taught directly by Cenarius, his fellow druids forgot their lessons over the years; this would imply that current tauren druidism is relatively new, learned from the night elves.”

Holy smokes
Except that the night elves were gifted the power to enter the dream by Ysera the former leader of the green dragonflight. So it doesn’t matter that the tauren learned druidism and worship a deity.
Saying that just because 2 races learned druidism first there can be no other druidsisn’t how it works. Trolls and Drust are obvious examples that there are other ways to reach druidic teachings. You can even look at the Druids of the Flame who were granted druidic powers from an elemental lord. Or in the case of worgen, get yourself infected by crazed wolf hybrid night elves and suddenly you’re druids without any training or reverence for nature.
Blood elf druids should happen. Just like many other class combinations; night elf paladin, orc druid, dwarf druid, orc demon hunters, draenei demon hunters, tauren warlocks, goblin monks, worgen monks, the list goes on.
Racist.
Like I said there is a female Orc druids on the WoD island thing.
So there’s that… So they already exist.
You won’t get Orc Druids or Draenei Warlocks until Vulpera can play Death Knight. wait…
Like we learned of the Dragonhawk Loa Jan’alai in Zul’aman back in Cata who was being forced by the Amani and rogue Zandalari to bestow them with power. The Blood Elves could easily learn more about this loa and begin to learn druidism. Or learn from their ancestors in Ardenweld in the Shadowlands. Study the Ar’candor tree more about the blending of nature and arcane to find a way of druidism. There’s so many avenues for them to reach blood elf druids.
