I'd like them to just allow druids to go out into the world and "tame" the forms they'd like to use, along the same lines of how Hunters function.
Especially since the whole weird, armored, tattooed animal forms, most of which don't exist anywhere in nature--even in WoW's nature, KINDA runs contrary to what being a druid is about.
Of course and agreed! There just wasn't any non-armored version that I could find, since this was a special Dark Iron mount that they made.

Looking up more about them, it seems they do share Wolf animations after all!

While the original darkhound model had unique animations, the updated model introduced in Battle for Azeroth shares animations with several animals such as coyotes and wolves
I know Blizzard said that they want to unlock all clases for every race, but pls no druids for undeads, it makes no sense at all, You can make your way around the lore in most cases, like giving mechanic beast forms to gnomes that are actually robots they pilot instead of making them transform but you cant really do this with undeads.
Looking at the Tauren Cat Form nose ring, fat chance.
Been waiting for years to have that follow the actual Tauren customization (none of my Tauren have nose rings, they are not cattle, and don't need a "hit me here to stun me with pain" point) and have been using the Artifact forms ever since Legion.
But your duty to Azeroth is not yet complete. More is demanded of you... a price the living cannot pay.
Nah man, undeads will be easy to do. There is a whole side of life that lives off of death, decay, and waste, those will be the forms they use. Bear form=beetle. Cat form=cockroach. Moonkin form=fungal giant. Swim form=leech. Flight form=fungal spore. Travel form=millipede.
Hi, I've got a rad idea for Dark Iron druids. How about giving them their own set of fire forms, like flame leopards? These fiery felines would be exclusive to them, making them even more badass. With fire-related abilities and a unique vibe, it's time to set those Dark Iron druids on fire
