- In this history of WoW video, we’ll be looking at the history and the different appearances of the Druid Bear Form. While the Bear Form is usually associated with the Guardian specialization, it is important to note that any druid is able to shapeshift into a bear.

I had some fun when the Cata pre patch came out with my druid. I had logged out in dire bear form and when the pre patch hit I was stuck in dire bear, like I could not even shift out. I actually had to jump out of the sewers in Dalaran and die to get out of dire bear. There was a bug fixed within a day or so but I thought it was hillarious that they left out the whole "stuck in dire bear because it does not exist anymore" aspect of the class.
I loved the quests associated with the different forms. I miss the feeling of pride completing them instead of just dropping some gold at the nearest trainer.
Yeah, same
All old class quests were so satisfying. Getting my whirlwind axe as early as possible felt so good
No you don’t. You miss how you felt back then. You don’t care about this quest at all 😂
@@shamba4406 that's a good point
@shamba4406 I mean I also enjoyed getting it in classic WoW the quests were challenging and fun
Both Bear Form and Dire Bear form always had their mouths open in vanilla. The only reason one has their mouth shut in that screenshot is it's dancing, and dancing was one of the few animations that shut the mouth. They looked, visually, the exact same. Dire Bear Form was basically just the improved Bear Form, in the same way warriors got plate armor at 40. That was all DBF was for: an armor and health boost at 40 to keep up with warriors getting plate.
I know it would have been hard to balance, but i really wish Druids were just strictly hybrid specs. Weaving in and out of forms as the fight progresses would have been awesome to see and to me make Druids even more flashy to see.
Ya say that, but in like a raid or dungeon you're not usually paying attention to playmates, you're looking at the trash and the boss.
Didn't seem to be mentioned in the video, but Dire Bear Form was acquired at level 40, the same level that Warriors and Paladins got Plate Armour (as well as Hunters and Shamans getting Mail Armour).
I can't remember when the armour upgrade of those classes was removed, but I think it was around the same time Dire Bear Form was removed.
It was mentioned at the very start
@@silencegaming3227 the connection to the armour upgrade was not
Dire bear form got removed MUCH earlier than plate upgrade (it was legion for gear upgrades) it might be cata but instead of learning dire bear they instead changed the name of upgrade from dire bear form to something about their fur or skin i cant remember anymore but the gear upgrade remained the same for all untill they all got removed but the changed "dire bear form" upgrade was only for guardian
Yup it was cata
The armor upgrade for Paladins Warriors Hunters and Shamans was removed with Legion
Bonus fact, the goldshire inn has a constant Bear population that never falls below 4
You forgot to mention the new form they get when the mage tower came back in patch 9.1.5
He also didn’t show the armored variation of bear form when using the MoP and WoD versions of Incarnation: Ursoc
If you haven't already, a video on the old totem quests would be neat, and just totem spells in general
When my brother first got me into wow, he played a Druid because I loved the bear and moonkin. I was like 8 or 9. Such a good brother. He just got his degree last night in biomedical engineering 😊
I started playing Guardian druid 4 weeks ago on my fresh 70 druid and last week I timed my first +20 keys of Dragonflight and got 2500 io for the first time ever. I'm currently 2802 and finding out how much Fortified+Bolstering hurts lol. This video came at a lovely time. I've enjoyed Guardian quite a lot. For my first season tanking m+ it has taken me to the promise land. I do wish the community was less cringe and willing to let me earn the white werebear form though. That tint is my favorite but the Fel Werebear or BoP bear will have to do I guess.
Great video! I would love to see a video on the artifact weapon!
Hi, can you do a video about History of stats? Like hit, resillience, multistrike etc? :)
I'm gonna be honest...came back to your channel after a break. I'm gonna be skipping all the videos NOT narrated by you :P Glad to see you're doing great!
A couple of things I feel were missed:
- From Wrath through WoD, the only way druids could change their bear form was to change their character's hair color at the barber shop. The Legion artifacts added the option to select an appearance from those unlocked, but it was not until Shadowlands that druids could independently pick the appearance of their bear form at the barber
- Bear Form's abilities have been limited to almost the same set since vanilla, but the addition of Moonfire to that list in Legion feels significant enough to mention
Blizzard is So boring.. thye could have added that you could use the ink and colours bought from vendors like tailoring vendors -but hey its and ip that booby the world destroyer protects + there are colour items in the wild nature but hey us devs cant think that far sicne someone only hires jee sayers
U forgot the fel one
Noticed that too. The Felbear is a reward from the current-Legion Timewalking redux-version of the Mage Tower for those who are curious.
you know- I've been watching you for years and.years...and I feel like every time I randomly click on your profile I find more channels lmao. Unfunny jokes may be my 2nd fav. Anyway you rock man
Are you going to do one on treant form? It was removed so might be short. I would to talent rundows of classes and specs(like how prot pally went from trash, to meme, to OP back to inline)
just today was checking channel =) without weekly updates I thought that something happened =)
Thanks for the info.
Thought he would mention the new bear form model offered with the mage tower revamp.
There's a new one?
You can get Fel bear form in towera still. Heard they reopen it per expansion at some point or that its always been open. Not sure wich one it is.
Forgot to mention in MoP with the talent Incarnation your bear form would get battle bear armor during the duration of the buff
Why are you phrasing it like the skins were the rewards for the achievements..
Yeah it's backwards. There was one main requirement for the model, and then subrequirements for the tints. Players could use the model as soon as you got the main requirement. The main requirements for the different models were getting the artifact; finishing the order campaign; the artifact upgrade unlock from Balance of Power; the PvP honor level (10); the hidden drop off Ursoc; and the Mage tower. In short, you got new models at progress milestones.
And to repeat it for completeness, all the tints for a model were independent and getting all four tints didn't get anything extra, nor did getting the achievement for the set (as the video said incorrectly) unlock anything new. Once the main model was unlocked, the player could just use any tint they already had available. And like OneOfTheLoveless said you didn't have to unlock the full set of tints with the Fighting of Style ach to unlock the new model, the player just needed to get the main milestone.
The only thing I hate about Bear form is their slow run speed. I understand differentiating the different forms, but when real bears are really fast runners, it gets a little frustrating when your badass fantasy bear is a giant slowpoke.
Can't they at least have run speed slightly lower than Cat- and Travel form?
the base and foundation of Warcraft's lore and story is so cool and fun and interesting, but Blizzard failed to build on it, I mean you can go back and read War of the Ancients(about Nightelves, Illidan, Malfurion, Tyrande and the first Burning Legion invasion)and it was such a good book I couldn't stop reading it even though I never really liked reading books
Where can you read it?
You forgot the best change for druids we all love! In shadowlands, all druid forms you've unlocked can now be changed to whichever you want in the barbershop with all your alts!
I'm glad this video goes over the bear necessities
...
I'll see myself out
Funny that right after this video came out 10.2 dropped and we got new bear forms. :)
Bearboi pog
Bear form also has an increased charismatic affinity with vampire PCs.
Please do a video on treant form
Funny, the most recent druid tier set had wooden Bear feet
You get the appearance before fighting with style. Fighting with style is the achievement for having all the appearance, not the achievement that awards them
Bro, are you the same dude from TheDuel Logs top 10 Yugioh videos? I swear the voice is identical.
Yeah, Hiru runs a couple other channels too, they're linked on the channel.
Hey, I saw you had uploaded since this a couple days ago but the video disappeared. Is the video gone now?
I bearly made it through the video if not for the bearable bear puns. 😅❤
You missed Felbear form from the Timewalking Mage Tower
Im so torn between druids. I love that zandalari trolls are dinosaurs. I also lobe how the mulgore tauren cat looks. Since ive seen a highmountain bear with antlers the mulgore versions looks kinda sad. But i dont like antlers on a cat. Then again the drust wicker versions of bear and cat looks absolutely awesome. I wish i could have them all but i like the race specific forms giving them more lore and culture
6:31 Get it?!
1:55 Reduced not increased
Lore ?
I opened this video to see funny Baldur's Gate 3 comments. I was very disappointed.
Hey duel logs 👋
BEAR. FOR E. 1.
ah yes, retail footage for all expansions being talked about, very good video..
It has to be both infuriating and exhausting hearing everyone tell you what you apparently forgot to talk about when you release a video. Consider that the creator didn't forget to do anything, and that they chose not to for reasons they have no obligation to explain, and by explaining it would in fact be mentioning and talking about it.
i like me some thic bears 🐱
hahaha bear druid is the best
druids, carrying groups and content.
We need actual different bear forms not reskins of the already given bear form, werebear is the closest to being different and its limited when you can get it… boring give us new ones the only one thats different is zandalari which is a turtle even the kul tiran is a bear but just with what looks like tree stuff all over it. Just lazy at the end of the day.
I dont think a “recolor” is really changing the bear form, thats just me though.
"Bear with us." Disliked, unsubbed, unfriended
When are we gonna get a druid bear form sex scene in WoW? Baldur's gate has shown that fantasy enjoyers show great demand for it. Stop being cowards blizz.
unbearable puns
