First reaction: OMG this is awesome!!!! Much better looking, thanks =D!!

Second reaction: Wait.. we can't pick which color we want..? It's based off of our hair color? I hate to be a downer but.... that's really lame. My druid has essentially looked the same since 2 months after launch. I'm certainly not going to change his hair color now... So essentially I'm stuck in whatever color you give me again. Which means my cat form will be... green...?

Can't you make it independent of what color our characters hair/fur is...? We were really looking forward to some customization... I really hope I'm misunderstanding things :(

Anyone else disappointed that after waiting so long we got so little? This really just looks like they're finally enabling us to change the colors of the layers of the bear form art. Personally I liked the original bear form anyhow, but I mean really, why did it take so long?

As long as they aren't put on individual glyphs and instead put in the barber shop, I'm all for it! These look great!

Q u o t e:
Pretty fail imo. Was expecting something totally new and exciting and you give use recolored bears with a few extra markings? I hope this is just concept art.

Edit: oh yeah and please don't give my night elf horns, thanks.
There alot better then nothing you should be happy with that and yeah druids won't have horns if you look thats the turen bear form not night elf night elf is coming sometime this week

The night elves grow more arrogant. They take what does not belong to them and trespass where they are not wanted. It is their assumption that everything falls under their domination. Although they di

Q u o t e:
New art for two druid forms, cat and bear, are coming in the next major content patch. As this has been a much-anticipated update for druids, we'd like to give you a first look at the fresh designs. We'll be offering up the new art for night elf and tauren druid forms in four installments. To kick things off today, let's start with a preview of the new textures available for tauren bear form. Take a glimpse at the new feature and art: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev/druid-forms.html


It is nice to see that the mouths are still wide open. I have hopes that this is one of the things still in the works.

Taurens don't have eyebrows...

...and bears don't have eyebrows.

Why does tauren bear form have eyebrows? It looks pretty silly.

All this wait... for... a re-textured model?

Is there something I am missing? Because while new textures are fun, I was under the impression you were going to do something cool and unique for druid forms -- I had envisioned a way for gear upgrades to reflect on the model... Or completely different models...

Q u o t e:
Hopefully we can change it up between the different skins too, and aren't locked into chosing one and staying with it. Sure, the models aren't radically different, which I never really expected, but they do look very good overall.

I also couldn't help but notice that it continues the trend of bears in WoW having problems closing their mouths. ;)


You'll be able to visit the barber to change your hair color (skin tone for Tauren) and that will change the look of your bear and cat form based on the color choice. You'll be able to change as often as you like as long as you pay the barber's fee.

Also, in the screenshots the bears are roaring, but when just sitting normally, their mouths will close in a toothy grin so to speak.

Well i'm excited!

Hmmm, I actually like that the color of your bear/cat is based on your hair/fur color. A black tauren turning into a white cat and a blue bear would be a little weird.

All the feral druids in the world just threw a party, and all the moonkins and trees now hate you a little more blizz :(

I guess what I'm most disappointed in is that they didn't really do something. Yeah, some new skins, they could have banged new skins out years ago. Yeah, its linked to the barbershop, cute. The shapeshifting element for Druids should be a ticket for the developers and artists to go crazy with creativity and imagination. Instead, we get a few new skins...... where's the creativity. Had to wait years and years for this.

I will add that this is still better than what is in game already and as it is a change that is really only going to be noticed by Feral druids I am appreciative of the attention my spec is getting.

Wow, not only do they look great but we get to choose (and switch) between at least 5 of them? This is fantastic, nice work!!

Hey Zar, you've got a shiny 4 gold coming your way if you make sure the next "installment" of art unveiling is Tauren cat.


Edit: I just noticed the new bears have 4 claws on each foot instead of 3. The logical assumption is that this comes with a 33% damage bonus to bear form right? :)

It looks cool- and I do hope the bear form will reflect our horn style too. I don't mind that it matches our hair/fur color, since it seems like a more natural shape, reflecting the character that shifted.

That said, these new forms will be made or broken by what they do with the tauren cat model. If it's the same model just different colors...no.
