Q u o t e:
Not sure how I feel about the design. I was expecting something a bit more obviously dwarven. Just looks a bit frail for a dwarven design. I'd be worried about planting one in a stiff wind. Needs to capture the beer / stout / hearty / rune/ iron-loving dwarves we've come to know. Just my opinion :D

Let's get a couple of good dwarven craftsman to make a sturdier version of the same thing.

I thought they looked kinda like welding torches, which is appropriate.

But not nearly as cool as cute little kegs would have been :(

Q u o t e:
why would a totem have a beard?

That's like the guy's trademark. o.O

I'm probably typing either with my DK funding mule, or another new alt. I'm an a'lt-o-holic' trying to find the right class for myself. :< /whimper

As Brewmaster Barley, a fine lover of ale, I have a soft spot for the keg totem idea so cheers to that ;D

I'd also accept thick carved stone totems covered with glowing runes in appropriate colors.

Or what I'd hope they'd do was something really different for dwarves which was to give them runic glyphs which formed on the earth around them. Each one glowing with an appropriate elemental color as the light poured through their shape skyward. I see dwarves as rather earth focused and I kept seeing their "totems" as being more closely tied to that element in appearance.

What's wrong with bearded totems? If it was good before a beard can only make it better. Besides it helps keep the elements off the carved oak finish and makes them easier to talk to on lonely adventures!

The fact that the totems are not kegs is a minor but not insignificant disappointment to most of us.

They're designed in the Wildhammer fashion, of course.

I told you they wouldn't be kegs when the discussion first came up, heh.

Maybe it's because I don't have a shaman, but I really would not give a crap what my totems look like.

Kind of reminds more of the Ironforge symbol than a Wildhammer ( besides the feathers )

Hmm, so lore-wise the playable dwarf shamans will be Wildhammer? Neat!
