Cataclysm: druid forms and other models
In case you haven’t been checking out MMO, and you missed it on BBB, here are the troll and worgen forms. While I do love putting pretty pictures in my blog, I’ve linked rather than put in as images, just in case a) you don’t want to spoil it for yourself and/or b) you don’t have your sunglasses handy.

MMO has a bunch of different in-game models (I can’t wait for an updated version of model viewer, *drool*), including hostile mobs, critters, humanoids, mounts, and pets etc, if you’re interested. Obviously it’s just the tip of the iceberg, can’t wait to see everything.
As for the druids, I like the cat stripes and mohawks; I don’t really like the tusks. I think they’re too thick, and look a bit odd, particularly on the bear model. I’d rather be able to have smaller, narrower tusks – still blatantly troll-y, but not so massive. Besides, a blue bear with a yellow mohawk – I don’t think anyone is going to be mistaking it for a run of the mill grizzly.
We know Tree of Life is getting a makeover, but not sure about Moonkin – Blizzard have implied they might not get to it by Cataclysm release; but of course that leaves us wondering whether they will just give everyone the existing models, or whether they are working on Troll and Worgen forms. That in turn could mean they update the Elf and Tauren Moonkin model “to be fair”.. or they might not.
I can’t wait to see.
And I can’t wait to see the new Tree – I’m praying they haven’t just reskinned an Ancient, that would be very disappointing.
I had already decided to have a Troll feral druid in Cataclysm; now I am even more excited about him.
Wouldn’t want to PvP as a Troll kitty though…….

I’m going to delete one of my current druids (3 on Cael) to “make room” for my troll. I can’t justify 4 druids on the same server, and I can’t spare the character slots either.
I really hope they introduce more character slots. I’d even consider paying. After 5+ years, 10 characters per server just isn’t enough !

will delete my Tauren Druid for a Worgen, or another character slots would be nice.
its like you say Keev, after playing for a few years, 10 slots isn’t up to it anymore, they should’ve giving a few extra at the launch of wotlk with DK’s cause many guildies deleted a char for a DK..

Seriously the new troll an worgen models look sick! personally i think the Troll ones are the best ever haha im re leveling a druid jus for the troll models plus the new questing an stuf should be fun with new zones so i wanna do that. I actually only pvp, i dont pve because idk i just think its too time consuming and overall alot of people take it way too seriously. I enjoy the pvp aspect way more, less time consuming(NOW that they are taking out arena thank god) haha also i just have more fun with pvp. also i love druid so much haha its my favorite class hands down. Idk what spec i will be going for pvp tho, now that arena is gone this changes everything. Since druid specs all of them rock in bgs in general. I will probably end up Troll Feral druid, i love moonkin but they do lack survival stuff and plus the new cat an bear form look sick haha. plus the boosted speed in feral forms is always fun and theyv boosted it more in cata.
so hopefully druids fare pretty well in cata. and seriously they need to update mookin and tree form. its been lke what 5 or 6 years? and a yearish since updated cat an bear forms?. kinda rediculous lol but the tree form isnt a big deal, altho cool they said the tree form is temporary now, like u dont get to use it all the time now, you stay in ur human form and when u use it its a temporary boost to ur healing then goes away so :/ i hope they dont do that to moonkin too. but i dont mind the tree thing, i prefer resto in human form, ur less of a target.

They’ve said that they won’t be giving us new moonkin models in 4.0, but what remains to be seen is whether the troll and worgen moonkins will simply have tauren and night elf skins – or whether they get a new skin on the old model.
