Post your ideas for new druid forms here. I will try to find blizzard e-mail and I will send the best ideas to Blizzard.
Mine ideas are:
- Foenix (something to fly and fight)
- Fire master (something
like fire elemental with fire abillities)
- Shapeshifting master (he's skills will be only to transform in some forms just for fun)I want a Yeti form that imitates the Death Knight class. Wouldn't that be kinda cool?How about polar bear form. make it a glyph for all i care just to look diffrent would be cool. And shouldn't we look like the war bear mount with the armor?
We need a cooler cat form also to go with dire bear. A sabercat or something.
Swimming form maybe a orca or shark. Travel form something other then a cat which we have a cat form for dps. That was a mistake from the start IMO. And how boss would it be if in travel form we can be mounted? And how boss would it be if in travel form we can be mounted?
Gross :p jk, I know what you mean, running lower lvls is kind of annoying, when you have to walk the whole way.
I agree completely that we should be able to change what the forms look likeI can totally see a glyph being added to change the look of bear or cat form, just like mage's glyph of penguin changes the look of polymorph. The only problem with this would be that everyone would get it, and thus look alike again.
The ultimate solution would be an option in the barber shop to change up the looks of your cat or bear...a white kitty with a mohawk! epic!I definitely like the Yeti idea, but how about a larger cat form, called Beast Lord. It would be a combination of a druid and a hunter, where you could be in a form and tame/summon pets.Or how about a Dire Cat form instead? I could sit here for hours thinking up new forms but Blizz doesn't care. No,
they rather have us beg and plea for something "cool" xD
Anyone know if new forms are coming soon? Because if that's the case, I'll have to stop getting my hopes up.There were actually supposed to be glyphs to make your flight form look like a phoenix and your bear form like a polar bear and one for your cat form that made you look like a were wolf...maybe they will be added in future patches or maybe they were just rumors....either way i think they oughta add em so you can spice up your druid (I mean a purple cat/lion or brown bear only looks cool for a little bit then its old news....)actually tameing pets with a druid defeats the whole purpose of a hunter...i know i know noone cares but hear me out...Blizz gave each class something UNIQUE to make it stand out anywhere
Shamans-Totems mainly and can Melee OR spell DPS
Rogues-Stealth and their array of high dmg abilities
Druids-Shapeshifting (and able to perform EVERY aspect of a group)
Hunters-Pets, auto shot
Warriors-GREAT tanking capabilities and able to use EVERY weapon/piece of armor that isn' class specific
Paladins-Healing and tanking and is sometimes considered the best at both, and a wide range of useful buffs like their Auras
Mage-VERY high spell dmg and great CC
Warlock-Minions and able to do GREAT dmg with direct spells or DoTs and can make minions stronger
Priest-Can be healer DPS and used to be a mana battery however depending on talents you may be forced to choose between near unlimited mana (with moderate heals) or VERY strong heals but not as mana efficient (Hybrid IMO)
Death Knight-Can DPS or tank in any talent tree (each one focuses on a different aspect Blood=parry Frost=can absorb ALOT of dg Unholy=(from what i have been told) is more focused on all three primarily avoiding the dmg completely (dodge and parry)and can AoE tank effectively...
It may SEEM like some classes have more than the others but that is because of how it is listed...but if you were to
give a druid the ability to tame beasts and such why make a hunter? or a warlock? The druid could EASILY keep the pet alive by stacking HoTs on it and take zero dmg....if you want to have a certain aspect then make the class that has said aspect..you want to tank Make a druid warrior paladin or Death Knight....DpS (any class can DPS nicely if done up right it all depends on how you would like to do it so there is no reason to go into that)...If you wanna heal make a pally, shammy, druid or priest...if you want a pet make a warlock hunter or Unholy DK (although the ghouls are not as strong as a hunters or a Warlocks pet)....It'd be nice if there were a fully combat-capable aquatic form instead of just a travel-only (and auto attack) aquatic form.
Perhaps something based on the hydra or, not quite as preferable, a crocolisk.
Outside of that single instance, however, the current forms cover healing, magical DPS, physical DPS, and tank, the 4 primary roles that other professions' primary role is to fill one or two slots of.
The only other role I can think of would, in some respects, be more of a tchotchke role than anything else. A chimaera (or similar flying beast) form for aerial combat without gnomish (or goblin) devices.
All that aside, one form I wouldn't mind seeing would be a gorilla. Of course the only problem with that one that I see is that if it's done badly the tauren gorilla might look like the "bull alien" from the Aliens spinoff toys. :-D
... That just gave me another idea. How about a druid version of the beast mastery skill mixed with a dash of leatherworking/blacksmithing/engineering?
A quest-based form that you choose from one of a couple of advanced forms for to suit your preference, but you only get one of them. Go for a gorilla or high-tail it to the hydra, but either way you pick one and you're stuck with it until you delete/recreate the character.
Not a very practical idea, but an interesting one.OMG I have been saying we should be mounted all the time!they should make it so that you know how hunter pets you have the tenacity the ferocity and the cunnings, i think you should be able to choose one of each to turn into, just imagine, warp stalker form or rhino formi say druids should have a wolf or maybe a spirit animal that like acts as like a death knight and has special attacks that have to deal with all nature effects.How about a swift ground form? :Oit wil cool if u can get a form that cange to different people like hunters, death nights, warrior, all of those types but we have our spells!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I like alot of the ideas you all had. The swift ground form would be sick, and to make it better it could be mountable to run lower lvls around or any lvl in general.
cat form for horde is cool at first but alli cat form is much better IMO, but i think that for horde and alli that both of the cat forms should be bigger and even look different when it comes to the gender of your toon. for horde i was thinking something more along the lines of the NE saber mounts, with a few tweaks so they dnt look exactly the same but something cool like that. and alli would get something along the same lines but with a few noticable differances.
Bear form should be bigger first off, and maybe do something like the glyph or barber shop idea to make them changeable.
water form is nice but again a glyph to make it look different or blizz should just change water form so you can cast and fight while in that form.
tree of life(if spec) should maybe be changed to something that is more spirit form(or maybe that should be a shaman) but they need to make tree of life look better,
moonkins are sick looking as it is, but maybe look different when it comes to gender or make glyphs to change there look entirely.
flight form, the pheonix idea is cool, maybe even make the colors of the pheonix change in different areas. but maybe something that can do like bombing attacks(only problem with that is it would make druids way OP and be able to bomb and fly away quickly and repeat until target is dead)
But to add a new form completely have a creature that can take the form of different animals for a certain amount of time, with your basic animal attacks like a hunters pet but with some other attacks that make it unique.
maybe there should be a mountain form for when ur to low for flying mounts they should add it at lvl 50WAT does the water form look likeCustom Form
if anybody here knows what the game spore is, there should be a custom spirit form, a form that you modify like the creature modification in spore, it is like your inner spirit, kind of, who you really are, but nothing other than looks for the form, jus to express your own form so we all dont look the same. Every1 would roll Druuid.lolhow about a Mount Form? u become one of the core racial mounts from a quest from each race leader, and u can even act as a mount for others! lolI like alot of the ideas you all had. The swift ground form would be sick, and to make it better it could be mountable to run lower lvls around or any lvl in general.
cat form for horde is cool at first but alli cat form is much better IMO, but i think that for horde and alli that both of the cat forms should be bigger and even look different when it comes to the gender of your toon. for horde i was thinking something more along the lines of the NE saber mounts, with a few tweaks

ya on ur last paragraph it wuld b called like Spirit Shifter or Eyes of the Wild form loli think we should be able to go to any beast defeat it and then an option comes up that says if we want the beast as a form or notand see 40 spiders running around dalaran^^hehehehehehehe
Just wondering, why would you need to fight in the air anyway? its not like there are enemies up there.. and if your answer is pvp - prepare for the biggest whining fest ever... 1 class that can fight while in the air to the other, helpless classes flying around in circles would cause so many people to whine they'd have to add a whole new aspect to the game that would not be too fun.I happen to like to some degree the idea of being able to take on the form of defeated creatures. However I believe that you should be limited to non-fantacy and select breeds of said animals.
Like at the start the first form that you might be able to take on is that of a Wolf. No other types of wolves can be learned till maybe Dire Wolves. Or something like that.
The down side to this of course is the loss of Boomkin (fantasical creature), and the programming nightmare for Blizzard. I mean really what advantages do you give for a wolf form over a cat or bear form? Is there a point to being able to take on a rabbit, cow, or sheep form? A serpant for with poisoning ability might be really cool, but that poison would have to be seriously mitigated to ensure that Rouges still had something over Druids.
I do happen to agree though that with the standard mounts being faster and readily available at lvl 30 that the Druid travel form needs beefed up in someway. Maybe bump this to a lvl 35 ability, that gives druids an in door/combat form for escape? Or maybe 80%% speed as opposed to the current 40%% or 60%% from standard mounts. The idea of being a mountable toon sounds awesome for running lower lvl toons, or running toons without mounts around. They could do this and make it to where there is a 15%% chance on being hit while doing this that both toons are stunned for 5-10 seconds.
I also happen to think that we should be able to swim in any water while in our swimming forms. They could make the journey from one content to the next an insane amount of time. Perhaps a 2 hour trip? Or they could throw some serious mobs out there that make such an adventure extremely hazardous. But really the idea
of exhaustion form a walrus crossing deep water is just silly. Oh and yeah I think as you level your aqua form should improve as well. (Start out with a sea turtle at lvl 16, at lvl 36 become a walrus, at lvl 48 be given a choice between sharp (a little more attack power, but less speed than dolphin) and dolphin (a little more speed, but less attack power))
Too many ideas and ways to change things. Personally though I still have just one burning question... What is the logic behind a druid not being able to take flight form anywhere except in the Outlands or Northrend? I can almost see personal mounts for some reason refuseing to fly for you in certain areas, but I don't understand an ability/spell learned in one part of the world not being known in another.
Just my thoughts.I would like to see druids be able to have personalized forms. I would like to know MY druid, the one in the party, apart from the one who is either in the raid or an attacker. I know you can't attack a friend, but the extra mouse over/click can count in a tight spot.
Maybe allow a druid to pick the color of the Cat, Bear or Flight form when they finish their quest (It would be a forever thing unless a "respec" could be used to reset it). Kind of like the Nightsabers or Raptors have different colors/marks.
Any of the forms would be able to act as a mount if they are a "mountable" species. Makes a lot of sense, it would allow the Druid to bring friends with him when questing. The penalty would either be a speed penalty or a stun from being knocked out of aspect like with the Hunters. A kind of makeshift mount.
The Moonkin or Tree form could maybe "babershop" or otherwise select a more unique form? maybe be able to choose one of the MOB skins as a look?
As it is the only way to
tell the difference is the "cenarion tattoo" and horns/bigears.
I think the best form idea is the yeti death knight. But yetis are not the coolest looking thing and theres already a bear so no polar bear with armor(that would be sick though) Maybe like a penguin LOL no a walrus or a armrd yeti? Anyways we shuld send the email to blizz cuz theres alot of grerat ideas hereActually i will admit your beast lord sounds nice.Maybe in a future patch when they update talent trees.(e.i. lvl 60s now get berzerk) Maybe they will add one you can only get after 60 feral points.A new cat form.I mean yes i love my wittle kitty.Mangle doing ungodly countless non-casting damage.And using berzerk,completely forgetting what the hell energy is during that 12 seconds(correct me if its longer) of hell rampage time.
But...n elves get a black panther.With moon markings on it.And we get a lion-type thing.With horns.That doesn't shut its mouth? Seriously when we dash do flies get stuck in there or something?
I mean.Our 2000 lb monster bear.Totally owns there 50 lb teddy bear. And our moonkin is twice their size.
I have to admit the horns arent bad.But..my main problem is the mouth..When i sit.When i sleep.When i dance.When i fight.My kitty mouth is constantly open.Surprised at something i will never know.I dont want my huge cat teeth glitching through my mouth.But.Please? dire kitty form?
You know.Maybe a large orange striped sabre tooth.Hell keep the horns if you want.Add them to the seal form too i dont care.Just make our cat form bigger.Badder.And a hell of alot cooler than those 5 ft funny standing night elves.i think druids should have a cooler cat form and the bear form looks really gimp. maby like the barber shop type thing for the cat and a glyph to make ur seal form into a penguin or skare..i dont care..bears are pretty bug s it is, i think..just lose the pointless horns and maby let people choose the colors of it in the barber shop, too(white, black, brown) and give the bears some armor..the mounts are cooler lookin than us..oh and if travel form wasnt so slow that would be cool beans, too. the thing about people mounting druids(no homo..) is a friggen cool idea..tree form needs an upgrade too..is the damn thing still the same as patch 0.0.1?christ..and druids should be able to cast minor heals in moonkin form, again(mabyh just rejuvination and regrowth?).
i could think of wayy more things..but i'm tired..i hope blizz actually sees these posts and decides to care about the million ppl that play their game.What do you think about wisp form - when you sacrifice yourself, you can heal a party member completely and the target is umume for attacks for 15 sec. Or something like thatRofl guys... never heard of Druidsofazeroth.com ? im it aint rigth. .jsut google Druids of azeroth..
theres some Extremely cool forms.. you dont want to know how many times people asked as if i wore a Gm.. ;-)
Hah.. but also..
all that shit about Unique classes ? whats the Unique in a druid ? nothing . .that why we need a new form.. like..
resto/tree of life.. is just a priest who raped an Ent .. and got A kid of it..
and Balance ? just a mage which likes having sex with Fat birds..
And catform ? a rogue with no Good Stuns.. and also.. its just the Pet of a Hunter Stacking intellect way to much.. .. and plugged some fuzzy horns cuz it likes "piercings"
Maybe we could take the mountain climbing idea and get a gorilla form. Something that jumps a little higher than normal, as a balance to the cats falling ability. I never follow the roads and end up on a mountain just above the boss mob, dropping in in cat (cloaked) and wipe him first.
BTW, has anyone found the abandoned air strip NE of Ironforge? I keep expecting Blizzard to do something with that.
