Probably the wrong forums, but was curious, are they planning to implement a female version of this form? I play a female night elf, and it does feel odd to shapeshift into a masculine male cat.

[Cthulhu 2020]

Doubtful. There was a similar thing when tree form was implemented... and even for bear and cat form wanting bows.

The skeleton used is the worgen. I really wouldn't want a female worgen style cat woman.

[Deafyx]

WTB Glyph to be able to use the original cat form because this mancat shit sucks. And it is the ONLY talent at 100 that is viable for PvP.

Blizzard tends to focus on the male version of most races. Female versions tend to be an afterthought. A long time past there was a bug where cat form would always do the female /silly, and bear would always do the male /silly, leading to the perception that the cat was female and the bear was male.

[Jawless Jones]

considering the saberon use the male worgen skeleton as a base, wouldn't female saberon use the female worgen skeleton?

and why would you want to look like the female chihuahua worgen?

[Lahis]

Saberon is a NPC only race. There will not be female models for them.

Have some feminazi organizations shitstorm blizzard via twitter :>

Why? I really enjoy an added 30% to my FB crits that are already overpowered. I feel like that it might be more valuable than having to spend an extra GCD for every Cyclone cast.

dispels

you can dispel LI's moonfires so they're nothing but ranged combo generators (pointless, powershift and get on that target)
you can dispel Predatory Swiftness and if you're using it right, it has to be up a while at times so you can get a 5cp FB off, which means against 1500+ players, you're doing shit damage that you literally can't do anything about....except for

speccing claws. damage reduction, damage bonus passive + 1 GCD clones and no need to sit on PS

[psychoholic123]

Makes sense, thanks. I'll probably start using it more then. Haven't played enough serious arena where enemies dispelled me I guess, because I didn't know that was possible. Also, I forgot about the bonus stat on claws.

[alzoron]

I think I could live with just having the male saberon model if they would at least give us some more variation. Most of the other druid forms have variations based on your race/hair/skin choices and I miss that with this talent. As it stands now every single druid of a particular race is an exact carbon copy of each other. I made the race/hair/skin choices purposefully because I wanted my shapeshifted forms to look a certain way. It feels really tacky the way it is right now.

[MrCool]

It would be a nice start if they could fix animation problems with regular Cat Form...

[gingerlemon]

It's shallow, short sighted and stupid, but I hate that stupid model so much I refuse to take that talent, even though I realise it's probably the best choice for PVP.

I have little hope for a female version, however a glyph that keeps you in regular cat form even with this talent seems much more likely.

[Useful]

the other thing that i don't like about this form - it doesn't have a fire version of it gained from seeds in Firelands raid. and I do like to pvp as a fire cat =)
on a plus side - u save GCD not only from Cyclone but from dispelling enrage effects as well. very handy vs warriors =)

Incorrect. A twitter response from the art Dev's said there will be female models eventually. They are most likely (according to another blue post) going to re-do the Fworgen model which would be (in theory) the base skeleton of the form, or at least the start of it.

[Durtnasty]

i think the model is awesome haha, way better than normal cat form and its clunky animations. Maybe if we got an updated cat model like how they updated all the player race models, everyone would be happy.

[Andyclan]

I personally like claws more than the regular cat form. It just looks so much more beefy and powerful.

Its tail looks dumb while running.

Why do you assume that Saberon are all males purely because they have pecs instead of boobs? A little anthropocentric, aren't you?

We had a similar discussion in beta with this model: http://media.mmo-champion.com/images...y/Arakkoa2.jpg

It doesn't have boobs, so it's clearly not a girl right? But wait, it also doesn't have raging biceps. What gender could it be?

Birds are not mammals. Their secondary sex characteristics hinge almost exlusively on plumage color. That Arrakoa is brightly colored, so it's likely male. Cats however, are mammals, and females will most likely sport breasts.
