    I think it would be cool to match True Form to Wolf, Panda, Lion or whatever else. I doubt it would happen though.

    if youve played WoW it would be like a druid in bear form. slower than tiger wolf or lion but more powerful.

    that would be very cool if each animal had their own traits like tiger is powerful attacker and fast runner, panda is powerful attack and defence, lion is powerful defence and fast runner, and wolf is fast runner and fast attack although weaker.

    Yah I'd say being able to change also from a veno form why should it always be into a red fox? Maybe to those who are a cat type veno can have a different color and look different plus in cat/fox form you can battle with claws and fangs instead of just a few fox skills and veno skills.Lol my veno is getting deadly when it comes to a fist fighting probably only main skill I prefer is ironwood scarab to lower defense of the enemy and equip back to claws/fist wepon and kill it faster.Lol I still even have my beginner quest charm sitting at 10k XD.

    Yes, I would certainly vouch for this change! Of course my opinion carries little weight in the world of the Perfect.

    It completely makes up for the LACK of customizability for the Barbarians!

    I say we get 500 people to sign this thread. That should get the attention of the producers.

    Though it is indeed - that the white tiger is a symbol if chinese mythology and culture and it would be hard to change. But really... I just want a Lion to be a Lion.

    I also agree, true form should match humanoid form.

    And the whole "The tiger means something" is a horrible reason to keep it the way it is. I'm pretty sure the devs aren't hardcore mythological follows when they throw in items like the warlord outfit and steampunk clothes. They should have thought about the forms matching when they added the other skins besides the original humanoid tiger.

    The only reason they haven't done it is because they won't make any direct profit it, and that always puts it way down on the list >.>

    It is not just a tiger.. It is a WHITE TIGER. Big difference...

    Adding new forms will just add to the lag. It's simple enough to just leave the game to drawing two animal forms instead of ten.

    For one, it's not really that simple to add all these forms. They have to animate it and all that other good stuff.

    For two, the game is based on chinese mythology. The white tiger is the symbol for werebeasts, which most of you know as barbarains. The fox is the symbol for werefoxes, which most of you know as venomancers.

    Yes, and chinese mythology also includes emo fashion and beach shorts.

    Anyway, I reckon it wouldn't be hard to animate as they can simply use the base structure of the original true form. I mean, to put it on a mindblowingly simple term, a cut and paste job with a different design for skin palettes.

    Yes, adding new animals would be awesome, and the tiger does symbolize something in Chinese-what it is i have no idea-the panda, wolf, and whatnot also symbolizes something too- so I'm fully backing up this decision.

    I would think it would be really cool to have your animal form match you human form. I would really hate it if each form had different traits. I think this would seriously mess up people builds kind of like what happened with the whole fairy thing.

    Example: Say you made a wolf barbarian and made him a super tank build instead of like a DD barb build. BUT when you get your new animal form as a wolf you don't have the tanking traits you get DD traits (faster attacker, fast runner, but weaker) well shoot that just messed up your build so now you have to buy a makeover scroll (or whatever cash shop item might change your true form or even worse you can't change it and have to re-roll) for a **** up you didn't make.

    Also it would be a lot easier to just change the looks of the true form instead of changing skills and traits.

    Okay, how about we talk money then. Since it's what pretty much piques the best interest of such.

    The Lion/Wolf/Pa    nda form shall be none other than equippables by the barbarians. You purchase it like clothes, except it only applies to the transformation.

    I'd really like this feature, even if it'd cost a few bucks here and there. Lions are awesome.

    yes very much so, but that's beside the matter. I see where you're coming from, but how much would people be wlling to pay for said feature? I believe it would be pretty high priced because of the graphics that go into it, time, and having to pay a said amt to the person/people who would have o create and through that process ext....

    I honestly think it wouldn't be that hard...
    THey can work off the bases. A smaller version of the purgatory green lion mount for the Lion form. One of the sharptooth wolfkins - but enhanced for the Wolf form (meaning it wont look anywhere near to a mob). THe tiger form can remain white tigers. If they want it changed, they can easily get the palette and change all that's white to orange. And the Panda form can be based off the Bad Panda.

    Doesn't seem to hard. ALl they need to do is size adjustments.

    Yes, but you have to take into consideration how much money that costs. A few size ajustments aren't as cheap as you think

    Aren't you being a little bit to unrealistically negative about this?
    Sure it's best to think of the consequences of certain actions such as these, but say for instance that it does cost a bunch of money, which I think is kind of... odd, judging by the palette they use to design their skins.
    Here are the tideborn's skin:
    http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/1381/pwi12.png
    http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/1817/pwi22.png

    Which looks reminiscent to this one life SIMulator game which I will SIMply not mention here (because of the rules, no, not really, I just like workarounds) - in designing clothing and stuff.
    Edit: I forgot to finish my main point in this - I was gonna go for "It's simplicity in creation and design makes it lean towards a 'no, this probably wont make it that expensive'")
    (Reminiscent in the terms that you can create your own designs with that similar palette.)

    But I digress.

    I think that if this cash shop modification is kept out for a long period of time, the ends justify the means. Even if it does cost alot, it'll make up for it.

    I think it would be a great idea to see all different kinds of "tigers".

    It would add a nice look to the game.
