No question here... just sayin'. My night elf druid is only level 42 and I've become obsessed with the class, no desire to play any other right now. But my husband's changing over to Horde and wants us all to start Horde characters, so I started a Tauren. I admit to being one of those people who was hesitant to play Horde because of the ugly, but man, do war stomp and the electric slide more than make up for the cow butt, or what? I may never go back.

cow but lol.

the thing about war stomp is I"m always in animal form as I do feral. It'd be cool if war stomp worked in bear or cat form. extra hp's is always nice. I think they get some nature resistance as well.

I deleted my night elf druid who was 30, and now my tauren is 32. I never played my ne. NE's are ugly in caster/ne form. All the elves look gay (both ne and be). Yeah tauren are ugly, but ugly in a manly way. :) But the main reason I did it was to have all my horde chars on one server, and ally on the other (which my brother also has ally on). My brother won't do horde.

The thing is I like horde as I think of them like the underdogs. And they are greatly outnumbered on my server, so we are the underdogs. But they have their share of problems. Allies seem to be a bunch of noobs, and horde seems to be immature and impatient. Although both sides are always in a hurry and do stupid things. People are in such a rush to do an instance in under 30 minutes.

The ne cat form looks better, but being a lion (sort of) isn't so bad. The bear is ugly, but that's okay.

I just started another druid as a Tauren. My first was night elf (noob, I just started a few weeks ago) and I have to say I miss my nelf for one reason, which I know will go away. Stealth. I just miss being able to stop anywhere for a quick bite to eat, to look up a quest or whatever.

I know, eventual cat comes with prowl. But... Wah.

Now, since I made it this far and haven't found it yet... Where is the secret cow level? I assume as a tauren, it's my right to go there.

Bring that little Night Elf to Thunder Bluff. You'll see, it's just like the secret cow level.

Am I the only one that wishes our moo sounded more like the cows in the secret cow level?

I use warstomp frequently on my feral druid. I just pop out of catform, stomp and heal, then pop back in. Works like a charm. Saved my bovine rear many times.

I personally think Taurens are the best looking race in the game now that I play one. I just wish my Warrior was a Tauren too.

all in all I think that tauren get the best racails of all the races (save maybe undead) an extra .2 or .5 HP per STA and warstomp? yes please!

and tauren chicks are hawt!

I think the male Taurens make great looking druids (wars too). The females however... a cow with chest-mounted breasts? I guess Bliz didn't want to take the bovine analogy that far. Otoh, udders on a bipedal cow wouldn't look that great either.

Naturaly but it still helps to have more HP than everything on the battlefield. and I bet that meld helps for moonkin and the long cast time for Starfire.

I think you get knocked out of shadowmeld once you start casting, juast like starting an aimed shot with a hunter. Then again i have not tried to actually use shadowmeld as a boomkin yet. Its down to looks and skill, althought the warstomp and extra HP is a real bonus, yet i couldnt bring myslef to play a druid whos catform looks like they woke up after a serious bender.(?? wait thats what mine looks like most the time.... dang.)

When it comes to Arena... Shadowmeld is freakin godly. So for Moonkins thats great. Also NE feral druids are better at stealth. SO we will see you before you see us =D Besides ya'll catform looks terrible o.0

Only things tauren druids got that makes them better then NE's is when it come to tanking. Tauren bearform owns NE's in looks and power.

In Arena Shadowmeld is godly. Plus NE's feral druids are better stealthers and we have an extra dodge chance. So we see you before you can see us =D Besides ya'll catform looks horrible.

Only thing tauren druid have going for them is that 5% bonus to HP or whatever. That only makes them better tanks. Tauren bearform owns NE's in looks and power.

Night Elf Epic Flightform > Tauren Epic Flightform. That one doesnt really matter because the stormcrow looks better then both of them...
