Before i start yes i know about the search function so dont hound on me for not posting this on a another true form thread. I started my own thread beacuse this is a new approch to changeing the barb true forms. My idea instead of replaceing the tiger form with the appropite animal why not just add another skill for barbs i have no ideas for a lion or panda but today i thought of a wolf one.
Wolf Form
Lvl 1 learned at lvl 29
Shapeshift into a black wolf. Maximum Mp increases by 10%,Movement speed increases by 20% but defence decreases by 50%

Lvl 2 learned at lvl 40
Shapeshift into a black wolf. Maximum Mp increases by 20%, Movement speed increases by 35% but defence decreases by 35%

Lvl 3 Learned at lvl 69
Shapeshift into a black wolf. Maximum Mp increases by 30%, Movement speed increases by 50% but defence decreases by 20%

Demon learned at lvl 89
Shapeshift into a black wolf. Maximum Mp increases by 30%, Movement speed increases by 80% but defence decreases by 20%
Defence reduction removed

Sage learned at lvl 89
Shapeshift into a black wolf. Maximum Mp increases by 40%, Movement speed increases by 80% but defence decreases by 20%

Wolf form is able to use all tiger form skills except Flesh Ream, Roar, shapeshift intensify and Invoke the spirt

Instead of Roar Wolf form has Howl
Howl
learned at lvl 40
grants all allies in a increase in attack rate for 8 seconds
higher lvl grants higher attack rate

Instead of Invoke the sprit Wolf form has
Moonlight song
learned at lvl 59
Attack is increased by 90% speed decresed by 50% lasts 8 seconds
consumes all chi

Instead of Flesh Ream Wolf form has
Sharp Claw
Learned at lvl 9
Same as Flesh Ream except it doesnt get argo and it isnt 100% accurate

Instead of Shapeshift intensify Wolf form
Wolf's Rage
learned at lvl 13
Increases Attack by a certain percetage
15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,80
Demon gives increased attack rate
Sage gives increased defence 20%

Wolf form is ment for Attack and not defence which means NOT FOR TANKING hopefully this will also keep people in squad from saying "Arrgh why are there 2 barbs in the squad?"
Defence is decreased so that they wont be overpowered in PK
MP is increased for more skill useage.

As for looks Wolf form is a black fured wolf with lavender eyes and glowing purple paws.

Hopefully a GM will see this and better yet reply to it

    Most likely a moot point - I'd be stunned if the 'true form' transformations were ever added to the game.

    That said, it's an interesting idea - giving the different forms different skill sets.

    I like the idea. Except that the numerous skill changes for each form will make it tricky. Maybe just keep all skills but have have stat changes (ex. +hp/def/etc).
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Why not? Coding issues? Lazy devs? All of the above?

    Yeah keep the skills, except have different secondary effects for each transformation(like Sage/Demon versions of skills)
    lion would be what? speed? lmao

    panda would be.... yea... there's really nothing a panda form could offer that matches its "style" lmao
    Lion=attack, wolf=speed, panda=mag/phys defense, tiger=HP

    Quick note, when making a suggestion, proceeding to insult the devs may not be the best way to get them to look at your ideas....

    Just a thought though
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    Hey, it wasn't my idea originally. Besides, if I were a dev, I'd want to go prove a snotty little noob wrong anyway.

    Says the one who believes he can do whatever he wants with a game just because he would be a developer. Do the words "copyright infringement" mean anything to you?

    What in the world does that have to do with anything? And why are you getting so damned hostile?

    I asked a simple question(joking, might I add), and here everyone goes blowing their top because of it...

    Look man, I'm just not gonna ruin your chances of this suggestion being implemented just because of that. And odds are, the (Chinese) developers aren't gonna be reading this board. If anything, the staff here will send the suggestions to the devs, and I'm pretty sure they'll omit all of the comments.

    It's a very interesting idea, only one question. Can all barbs change into every form, or does what true form you have going to be decided by your apperance?

    Because it might suck to get to lvl 20 as a wolf, and realized "hey, I though this was the tanking class D:<"

    The suggestion is nice but the easiest thing would be to keep the Trueform transformation alone without adding new skills. New skills means a lot of things would have to change. Some, if not all, are listed below:-

    1.) Skill Tree Charts ingame
    2.) Sage/Demon Skill Books
    3.) All NPC lists which have skill books mentioned in them
    4.) All forges that let you make them
    5.) Barbarian Trainer Skill lists

    The most simplest thing from a Dev's point of view is to simply change the appearance of the true form depending on the type of barbarian

    That being said, this would probably never be done since:-

    1.) If it would, it wouldve been done already or when the game was launched.
    2.) No profit for the company as such (People dont stop playing cos its not there nor would implementing it get them more customers)
    3.) Time and money spent on implementing this change could better be used to introduce cashshop items/expansion which would actually get the company more money

    Yes all barbs will be able to use this skill and still have the Tiger form
