I don't know that you could call Cenarius a druid, really. I mean He's closely allied with them in the sense of what he does and what he cares about, but as a demigod, he's not really a mortal that learned the ways of nature.
Also Malfurion is a bit of a basket case. The feathers and antlers make him look like he got stuck trying to shift between travel forms.
Cheerful lack of self-preservation
An owl-chicken that shoots lazers isnt the worst ! its an awesome form
Still wondering why I play this game.
I'm a Rogue and I also made a spreadsheet for the Order Hall that is updated for BfA.
Malfurion has mastered Druidism. He has no spec. He has used all druid forms but moonkin. He always casts his offensive spells in normal form. In lore, most notable druid spellcasters don't use Moonkin form.
I would really like to know what leads you to this line of thought. Nothing about Malfurion is particularly Resto-orientated.
Can't say i've ever seen Malfurion use Cat, Bear or Aquatic form though i'm obviously assuming he has them. He's never really been depicted using them much so I would question anyone claiming he were Feral or Guardian specifically. He DEFINITELY uses more Balance spells than them at least (Not sure on Resto)
No, not really. You are forgetting PvP for instance, or that in general Moonkin Form serves other purposes than just +dmg. It is similar situation as petless MM hunters, either they will design this spec with pet in mind or not. These are far more fundamental issues than just visual preferences.
Problem is, if they added new moonkin form(s) would you all want to give up your weapon? Should moonkins have both cool form and weapon that you can transmog? Then why cant ferals have cat forms with daggers? What im trying to say is that moonkin form really is a hate or love topic. I understand that blizzard is some what ignoring to make a new form. If they keep it as it is, its just casual "whine" on forums. If they change it we prob see a sh#tstorm off complains. Then again the class druid form was aweful imo. They could make ppl able to choose. Btw
Malfurion is so powerful he dont need forms to empower him..
"You think you do, but you don't..."
"Problem is, if they added new moonkin form(s) would you all want to give up your weapon?"
Of course
lol just like how they've fixed fist weapons with windwalkers not only clipping into their legs but not having punching animations?
Bitch, please. They rarely fix their models. Worgens and Goblins have been sitting on fixes longer than Illidan has been pining for Tyranda.
We'll prob never see a new moonkin form, even though the form is so closely attached to Elune and the night elves in particular. The reason? We got a glyph to remove the form.
In blizzard's eyes you have a choice of use the form if you like it, or use the glyph if you don't. Zero incentive for them to create a handful of new forms to be more flavourful to worgen/trolls/tauren/zandalari.
Hope at least the Highmountain/Zandalari Moonkins have a different color Moonkin/Travel form, compared to regular Tauren/Troll.
