Would love to see some shape shifting abilites in AoC. Like I'd love to turn into a Werewolf.

    There are 64 classes in the game, with each class having 4 augments. I am sure one of them will be a shapeshifter.

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    I can understand vampires, but werewolves as well? I like being a werewolf :(

    If they really wanted to go in that direction maybe, like maybe the summoner ranger archetype can turn into a wolf or bear, but since the skills seem to be variations of skills from the base class, unless that base class as some kind of transformation ability, I doubt it. Summoner is really the only class I can see that happening with, and even then I don't think the summoner skill set really fits with that. However, there's no way to know for sure, there could always be a legendary item or something that gives you that ability, who knows.

    Maybe it could be added as a race later on.

    Maybe, but I would not hold my breath (if I had lungs that is)

    I bet you want an undead race. If you don't have any lungs, better get a pair, as you might wanna hold your breath too.

    @CaptainChuck so this guy isn’t wanting AoC to copy wow druids for or ESO vamp or werewolf?? Hmm I see you practice selective saltiness.

    I wouldn't be opposed to it. Druid from Diablo 2 is one of the most popular classes in that game because he can shapeshift. However I can see them not having shapeshifting at all if they want to add a druid in a future content update or something.

    Shapeshifting has always been a trait unique to druids.

    Huh? Werewolves and druids don't JUST belong to WoW. They are in so many supernatural stuff: movies, games, shows, books, you name it.

    If i mentioned that I wanted werewolves JUST LIKE IN WOW, then your statement would be valid. But I didn't, so it goes through the window.

    Maybe not racial xenomorphs or anything, but d&d style polymorphism would be cool as a class
