Not sure if this has already been mentioned but i’m tired of balance druids being left out when comes to customisation. why are they not in the barber shop?
I would like to be able to customise my balance druid feather colour and horn style.
As a tauren balance druid id love to have the orange moonkin skin.
Why don’t they just let us use spells without shapeshifting is beyond me. No other class needs to have an additional GCD that ruins their transmog before being ready to fight…
And I’m saying that for all specs, not just balance. We can attack with our weapons, and still have animal forms when fitting (like during Prowl or Tiger’s fury). Of course an option should remain for those who like the current system and want permanent animal forms.
Without shapeshifting you are just a “nature priest” and the class identity is eroded then. The current situation where restoration is without a shape is ok because they can still turn into others if they wish (it would be nice nonetheless for them to have some more cosmetic shapes if the so wish without power change, more treants or other restoration themed ones).
Nonetheless those spec who do shapeshift, and especially balance should receive some more cosmetic option as well and maybe even customization option (which would be real awesome).
Do balance druid get to use the cat and bear forms now with the new system?
Would love to shapeshift into an owlcat when running or sneaking as a boomie
I don’t see a problem with that. You don’t see people complaining that death knighs aren’t forced to turn into a ghoul because they’d just be a “death warrior”.
But if that’s really a problem, at least make it so that we can use our current spec without shapeshifting: If I’m a feral druid, I shouldn’t have to turn into a cat to use cat spells. You’d still have a shapeshift mechanic to access the utility of others shapes.
A guardian druid should have to turn into a moonkin to use moonkin spells, but they should be able to use bear spells in their humanoid form. And a balance druid shouldn’t have to turn into a moonkin to use moonkin spells, but should have to turn into a bear to use bear spells.
