New Druid Forms! (Tauren Bear)

posted 2009/05/26 at 12:28 PM by Malgayne

Tauren Bear FormEditIn our next major content patch, druids will find a host of new textures for two major forms, cat and bear. There will be five different designs for each of these forms for the Horde and Alliance. Night elves can choose to change their cat and bear look at any time by visiting the barber shop and changing their character's hair color, while tauren will be able to change which look they use by switching skin tones in the barber shop -- a new feature for tauren in the next major content patch. Given that there are more hair colors and skin tones than unique form looks, some colors and tones will overlap with these new textures. The hair and skin colors chosen will, in most cases, correspond with the color seen in the look of each form. Some similar colors that may share a particular cat texture will not necessarily share the same bear texture.

We'd like to share with you this new art for each form and faction in four installments. So without further ado, our first preview is for the five new textures of the tauren druid bear form. We'll also show the current form design so you can easily see the extra detail and textures of the new art. Work continues on new looks for the remaining druid forms and we hope to add them in future content patches.

Comment by guntitanI'm going to roll a druid! I always wondered why Blizzard never did this before. I mean not all bears look exactly the same druids' bear forms shouldn't either.Comment by freakeystyley34Ok it's amazing that they are giving druids some new threads but would it hurt to have them change every 10 levels, maybe subtle like they start blank (like current bear) and get a new mark or bit of ornamentation (band round arm, something round neck etc) until they get to 80 and look like the new models. Would just be nice to have a distinction between an ulduar geared bear and a level 10 bear.Comment by blademeldAnd bears still can't close their mouths. It makes my throat parched just looking at them.Comment by 115147This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by LordHiccupMy druid friend will be amazed by this news, I wonder what Boomkins will end up looking like...Comment by 273605This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by 346682This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by 295744This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by 278900This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by 364485This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by AfoxiI like the changes, but...

WTB Gender distinction pls! Beards on Male Bears only (the bears have beards), and no manes on Tauren Female Cats.

Oh, and what would be extra shades of awesome - If a Tauren's Horns persisted in Bear/Cat/Moonkin.

One or two extra colors would be great too.

EDIT: Damnit Blizz, in Lore, Druid Travel Forms are based off Stags, not Cheetahs, and the Icon for Travel Form is a Stag's Hoof (or at least just a Hoof).Comment by Misentro...We still have the permasnarl?Comment by AfoxiUhm no. Can't confirm for cat, but Bears close their mouths into "a toothy grin" now.Comment by ZorrahAbout time :)

Well worth the wait it looks like too!Comment by tessaeDruid Owl-bear form?

Maybe something to go with Noxy's Boom-Kitty?Comment by InterestYes!

And my druid is level 80 now too!

Best....timing....ever.Comment by SpitefulCrowWould rather have it be that the bear skin changes when you hit a milestone leveling. Every twenty levels or so (30, 50, 70) your bear form gets a new, more fierce looking skin. More markings/tattoos, more armor, etc.Comment by JenroelI'm amazed, and slightly disgusted. All that's really changed is they gave us five new colors to choose from. I'd much rather have better looking bears all around. I personally asked for something without huge horns, and perhaps the ability to choose from a variety of tattoos. That would make this update ever so much better.Comment by Gore123WHERE ARE MY MOONKIN SKINS DAMN IT!Comment by EteryuYes, yes, Y-E-S! New form art! God knows the moomoo's needed it. More excuses to stop shifting out to whack things with the flaming cat head =)
