You can't see your weapons in feral/guardian form, thus the idea of cool looking weapons would be lost on them. Moonkins see their weapons.
yeah wow we can see our Weapon. what a lame excuse
This would have been a good opportunity to give Moonkin new Skins
If you use the Moonkin form you are stuck with that old boring Model... if you dont like you are stuck with a annoying Astral look.

Moonkin customisation has been lacking for a long time.
Feral had customisation available, then new weapons, and then even better artifact models.
Would be nice to have even the slightest variation between players tbh, its been a long time coming.
Wait, you missed the point where Boomkin model actually received a huge upgrade in particles and looks?
-All- other classes have only a new skin on their weapons, just like Boomkin, indeed as stated, because you can see your weapon.
That is the reason Ferals and Guardians get to see a different skin-form, because otherwise... What'd be the difference? Oh a cat form... ooh, a same catform after hours and days of grinding! >.>
And aren't the boomkin forms all differently colored/altered, based on character race too? Our extra skins don't have that..
It isn't a lame excuse and all, so many boomkins are so entitled when it comes to the skin stuff. The ONLY reason, feral and guardian got fancy skins, is because you can't see the fancy artifact weapon. In Boomkin, you can see the fancy skin.
It's very simple. It's like a mage crying that they didn't get a model update for their actual character, and saying that their artifact weapon isn't enough. You have your weapon, they don't. If they give you a fancy boomkin skin, then you get a cool weapon and a sick skin. Ferals and guardians, like every other expansion, then get less cosmetic stuff than boomie/resto. You've always been able to see your wep, feral and guardian always haven't.
It's completely fair that they get a perk for once.
Each race is its own color, but we still lack the option of any other class to customise hair, tattoos and so on.
obviously feral are no longer affected once they have the artifact but the witrhout it you still have customisation
- - - Updated - - -
Not at all. imagine every single mage looking the same, except for their race. purple hair, bob cut, nose piercing.
Thats all we need, customisation available to every other class in the game - we dont identify with our weapon, we identify with our character

It kills me when people bitch like this... You could always have moonkin form taken away like treant form and you would lose immunity to poly in Pvp
Try being thankful for what you have rather than always finding something to complain about and remember that you may not like some things...and that's ok. Feral and guardian have updated models...yep. But we lose out on all transmog in our forms, both weapons and armor. You at least still have a very cool weapon to xmog!
Uh, old boomkin models? They were updated with Legion :|
It would of been cool, if at least, the hidden skin for the scythe changed the boomkin model up a bit, like a Firelands boomkin or something.
"May the way of the Hero lead to the Triforce"
"May the Goddess smile upon you."
"Hero", is what they've all been saying. This world, it isn't worth the saving."
Could be worse. Shadow priests can barely see their weapon. It's way smaller and hidden with shadowform.
You're just whining for the sake of whining.
The reason ferals and guardian is getting new forms is because they can't see their weapon, and doesn't have a glyph to hide their form.
The moonkin form was updated in legion though, be happy with the small things you get instead.
Just make it so that im not a stupid blue moonkin when i talent BotA and Ill be happy.
Just a proposition.
Change the moonkin form by giving us wings like Malf
- the boomkin idea is here
- no need to change weapons
- easy to implement
- you can see your armor, haircut etc.
- it's awesome
- we can flap
- for whining people you can make a glyph with the old form.
And yeah I agree BotA coloration sucks, just let the spark around the character and leave this ugly blue color
Seeing your weapon is a piss poor fucking excuse for them being lazy as fuck. so sick of "but you can see your weapon!" so? you know you cant see it as a feral or guardian.
About time we got a model overhaul like feral and guardian have several times now.
yeah I've always wondered why they didn't go for that, some sort of Hybrid look, winged arms, antlers, things like that even if it was just a glyph that would be preferable to being a poor mans shadow priest
I'm feral.
Yes, we feral druids (and guardians too) spend 99% of the time in our spec's form and we don't get to see our gear set or transmog much, if at all, but the excuse of Moonkins being able to see their weapons it's just lame. You get to the see the weapon, but what about the rest of the gear? Unless you get the glyph of stars, you won't see it.
Like the example given above, what it that mage you mention only gets to see one single outfit from level 1 till the end of wow because you can change the looks of your weapon? Would you be happy? I bet not.
It's not fair that 3 out of 4 moonkin races share the same exact model, while the other one only has different horns, and only 1 colour availabe per race; while cat and bear forms have different features (different manes, fangs, faces, markings...) and 5 colours per race. C'mon, you can go to many zones in the game with npc moonkins with colours the playable races don't have... Bummer.
So yes, Moonkin players deserve some love and customization.
