    It would be really great if a GM could drop in and give some indication of likeliness of this ever happening and some sort of why/why not?

    Sorry if its already well known or been posted earlier i only skimmed the 10 pages to get here ...

    I'm so glad I found this thread. I was seriously considering doing a wolf or Lion barb. But if all they can change into are tigers I'll go roll something else.b:sad

    Too bad you'll never get this unless its added in the Malaysian version. PWI devs can't add anything like this to the game.

    This entire idea is rather stupid. Do you have any idea how much time and money it would take to code such meaningless ****? We dont need a total revamp on something that doesnt need fixing k thx.

    A simple check to determine your char's head, and based on that it switches you model to a different one? Honestly the coding wouldnt be a lot of work and the model wouldnt be hard. Just a reskin with a few changes to it.

    Hell, i could model and code that **** myself in a matter of a few hours.

    how stupid are you? it will cost nothing. the only thing they need to do is change the texture of the tiger...man research before u say something stupid

    Yes so for example if you were to choose the lion humanoid the transformation would result in a large lion instead of the typical white tiger.

    so what about the girl veno's, there are bat ones, fox ones, bunny ones. should they be able to change into those too?

    - Be patient to handle all sorts of requests
    - Be level-headed to keep discussions and some petty squabbles in check.b:cool

    yeah because wolves and pandas TOTALLY look like lions/tigers, and the dev team would TOTALLY do it for free, and it TOTALLY wouldnt cost to get permission the parent company in china. They cant just add things as the players whine for them.

    Theres a difference between having a mean opinion, and being an ****, as you dont need name calling to be the former. jack ****.

    I support this completely-My friend brought me into the game because he liked the character customization, and i typically play a tank character. I was disappointed when I couldnt customize as much as the other characters. I like the humaniod tail idea and i really support the different true forms among the different barb animals. I hope this gets some GM attention.b:victory

    The best would have been to have the barbarian looking like a regular blademaster in humanoid mode ( i like tanks but i dont like the beast formb:sad ) and in animal tanking mode to turn in to the barbarian as he looks when he isnt in tiger mode. That would have been perfect. And tiger mode should be a special transformation so that the barb would not need a horse. But thats a dream. I would like to choose in what i could transform.

    I posted this in a different thread on mistake, but they're both about the same topic

    I totally agree with being able to change into the animals us barbs choose when we make our characters, it'd also be awesome for the venos as well. Everyone gets their own choices for character customization, but what do us barbs get? 4 different faces, body size, and eye color... If we're supposed to have been given the gift of Self-Awareness, like the intro to this game says we were given, we should turn into a wolf, when we choose a wolf barb. we'd also be able to have different types of fur, after all, there is soo many species of Tigers, a few Lions, Wolves, and Bears... Where's the Variety? Everyone gets sick of almost always being the same as untamed barbs. Only the Cash Shop items, our armors, and weapons make us different. It's not fair to us, the players, and you'll probably get rid of our petitions if it actually is put into motion, and we are given the variety of untamed Barbarians we deserve.

    I think it's weird that they change in to white tigers... I mean... white tigers are from a result of inbreeding. That's kinda gross...

    Dont mess with a Barb cause you may get the tiggerb:angry

    O.o WOW, thanks for that info... EWWWW~anyway, I PMed GM_Xarfox about info of plans for the barbs, yesterday. He hasn't checked it, but since he's also a Barb, AND a GM, i'd like to think he'd share the same views of how the barbarians are mistreated, if we're so important, i'd think the variety of our character's species would have been considered! But, alas, we've been forgotten about...
    TT.TT i want either more customizations for basic characters, or the True Beast skill being altered, i mean why can't they make a program within the game that when we choose our model, it also selects the True beast, and if we alter from a wolf to a panda, true beast also changes with it?

    It would be a lot more fun if we could choice our animal form :D

    And I think we should be able to choose the color of the fur in the humanoid form (at character creation) also. The customization for the Barbarians are very poor compared to the other classes.

    Completely agree here. The fur color would be awesome customized. I'd prefer it to the current state. Barbs are arguably one of the cooler classes to play but still boring to look at...you've seen one wolf head, you've seen 'em all.

    Even if they made it an option only available through boutique I think I'd do it.

    if barbs wil get these animal changes then clerics should have the option in the start of the game what kind of wings they would like (a kind we could use our flying mastery on)

    not to stomp on that idea, Alyyy, but this is the barbarian Discussion thread. and everyone else has soo many more stuff then we barbarians have, it'd not be fair for you to get even more, while we only have like 6 things we can do, and the others have like 30

    It wouldn't be a bad thing, but personally I think the tiger is really cool and nice. I think before this issue is addressed the devs need to first give the barbs more customization options, like fur color, ect.
