Vulpera Discussion Megathread (Part 1)

Alright I just looked at animations and gear models on the Vulpera. I must have a Vulpera I will pay for a race change please. Make it avaible to Horde or netural, I cant stand the idea if it was alliance only race. I must have a Vulpera especially after seeing their sleep animation.

Your theory hold water, I'm just speculating myself. But I feel like if any horde character were to recruit the vulpera it would have to be one who understands what it means to live through slavery. And that would be an orc. Thrall returns, maybe?
I think it's pretty unlikely. These things are planned miles in advance and if Thrall was meant to induct an allied race, he would be in the Orgrimmar Embassy, but it doesn't really make sense for him to come back without making a big deal about it. Also, Thrall most likely will have no connections to the Vulpera at all, making him a pretty poor ambassador for the job.
Okay, I think you guys have convinced me that it probably will be Gallywix.

Shame, I never wanted to have to thank that greedy turd for anything > >

I'm honestly fine with more Gallywix. Though I'll admit that's mostly because I love Darin De Paul's voice acting. He really knows how to bring characters alive.

I mean, I guess I could see this. Again though, this is going off the assumption that NPC's can't vouch for multiple allied races and they are limited to 1 per NPC.

For all we know, a Vulpera might approach the Horde akin to how Pandaren did. One of the Vulpera Faction Leaders may approach and say "Hey, you guys helped us out a lot. Really dig your champions and what you have going, we want to return the favor" or something along those lines.

If it is set in stone that each NPC in there can/will bring an allied race to the table then I could see Gallywix I guess. There has to be something in it for him though knowing his Greedy mind set and I am just not quite sure what that would be.

He has such a great voice actor! Like, seriously, really has that scumbag, shady, filthy vibe to him just from his voice alone and it fits his model sooooo well.

Believe me, I can appreciate good voice acting specifically designed to make me NOT like a character.

Love the actor, hate the character. Which is pretty much the point

Hi guys, just the usual reminder of how awesome Vulpera druids would be if:

>Scorpion tank
>Hyena feral
>Vulture flight form
>Cactus tree form
>[No idea] Aquatic form

...Think about it!!!


I am actually 100% on board with this idea. I wasn't sure how well you could really meld a vulpera and druid forms but this actually has me WANTING it to happen because of how awesome it would be.

Since though there aren't really any cactus models I can think of in game, and tree form is mostly just a cosmetic glyph and not a mandatory form, we'll probably have to give that one up at the negotiating table.

I would prefer: Rhino/Tortoise bear form, Hyena / Lizard Cat form, Meerkat Moonkin, Hawk / Vulture Flight form, Camel travel form, and some sort of fantasy reptillian aqautic form
So with all the salt flying around.

I need some levity. I need some foxes. I can has foxes, Blizz? Plox?
At least in less than a week their faction unlocks along with the rest of bfa.

I could definately see them at least being interesting to gallywix - those little guys are natural looters due to the way they had to survive they have a 'take everything thats not nailed down' mentality.

Ehhh I really don't like the Rhino/Tortoise idea personally :s I think Scorpion would be really cool and unique, plus there's already a silly turtle coming for the Zandilari. But that's just a matter of preference difference :P

I do like what someone mentioned before: Otter aquatic

I don't really think a scorpion would do well with the bear form animations is my main concern with them, and I wouldn't wanna push Blizz to do more work then they have to because then they might just be like welp, guess vulp don't get druids

HAHAHAHAHA! XD

Statistically, one hour he would have to do something of value during his lifetime! If it is the recruitment of the vulperas to the Horde, it can die soon after, with the mission accomplished!
vulpera driud? give me
I would like to see them if only to spite all the edgelords hating on them.

Well the issue is some of us edgelords aren't in fact hating on them of course! How dare they say that about my people! Oh... or do you speak of the REAL edgelords... the *Teleports behind you* "Nothing personal kid" edgelords? Hehehe.
----------------
@Bas As for scorpion not having bear form animations, that's a fair point. Granted I'm not sure how they glued a bear form animation to a turtle for the Zandilari but if they ever do branch out, scorpion would be so cool. Regardless you make sense.

No idea how I'll be able to do it, but my bf and I want to name ours some variation of Rock & Roll. If no Vulpera druids, I'm hoping for monks. Rollari could be mine, Rockaru could be his. Who knows.
