This guide originally appeared on my blog,
A Sunnier Bear
.
Here we are, ladies and gentlemen. The outfit I will wear once tranmogrification is released!
Wait, you're saying that
everyone
will be wearing the
Thunderheart set
? I won't be a unique and special snowflake like I imagined? How can I fix this?
I have to find something that elegant, but also druidic. It needs to be relatively easy to obtain, but not dull. It cannot, by any means, interact with my worgen's muzzle, because that makes her look horrible. Worse than wearing white after labor day (is that right? I don't actually understand fashion).
Outfits
Blue, Gold, and Green
Let's try this lovely combination of Tier 9 (Alliance only) and Tier 11. The gold feathers on the shoulders match the gold accents on the dress quite nicely. The dress has excellent detailing, and the stitches down the middle accentuate this model's lady-like figure.

These colors also suggest autumn, but one for a colder place. Not ideal for Firelands. These shoulders are also one of the few that indicates the true nature of your role (that is, if you're feral).

Tier 6 helm,
Helm of the Forgotten Vanquisher

*-
Guise of the Tidal Lurker
is a suitable replacement for worgen, because it has the same skin as the traditional tier helmet for them. It also doesn't clip off your ears or hair.
Weapons
Feral staves used to have a reputation of being awesome. We had ugly cat and bear forms, so they had to give us something pretty to look at, right? Even if it was just for running around Shattrath.
Then we started sharing staves with hunters, and our options were suddenly less cool. Well, now that the ability to change the appearance of your gear is coming in 4.3, we can go back to the way things were!
Here are, in my opinion, the best options to pick from.
Staves
Pillar of Ferocity
Obtained from:
Anetheron
, The Battle for Mount Hyjal
This staff will be the first thing I change. It is huge, bright, and looks very much like it belongs in the hands of a druid. It was my favorite item in The Burning Crusade, even if it wasn't that great for tanking. Sadly, I'm going to have a bit of farming to do before I can transmogrify to this beautiful weapon.
Wildfury Greatstaff
Obtained from: Trash in Serpentshrine Cavern
Not quite the looker, but the majority of bear tanks used this staff all throughout their career in the Burning Crusade. Sometimes you need a simple weapon, whether it's to complement your complex gear or to indicate a natural druidic lifestyle. If you want to go back to the times where we didn't get true weapon upgrades for many raids, this is your staff.
Terestian's Stranglestaff
Obtained from:
Terestian Illhoof
, Karazhan
Famous for it's wriggling tentacles and the often inappropriate connotations, this staff is great for anyone who wants remember the Karazhan days and creep out their guildmates at the same time. Karazhan is also easy to solo at 85, so if you don't have it you can get it easily. Traditionally, this weapon was paired with Tier 4. Although the dark colors of the Stranglestaff contrast nicely with Malorne's Harness, I don't believe octopi and stags play together nicely.
Stanchion of Primal Instinct
Obtained from: Eredar Twins, Sunwell
The first staff that dropped in a 25 man raid that was actually an upgrade for feral damage (though again, not tanking). It's not as striking as some other designs, but it is beautiful. I got mine on the last day before 3.0 (the patch that upgraded everything to Wrath of the Lich King), so it has a special place in my heart.
Zhar'doom, Greatstaff of the Devourer
Obtained from:
Illidan Stormrage
, Black Temple
Not a feral staff, but definitely iconic. Since it is still a staff, we can use it to customize our gear. There's a wriggling fel-puppy on the top, creepy! Blizzard had a fascination with near-living staff toppers during the Burning Crusade.
Staff of Immaculate Recovery
Obtained from:
Gurtogg Bloodboil
, Black Temple
Ah, the "priest on a stick". Another non-feral staff, but it will bring a lovely purity to your tanking ensemble. Or maybe you want it because it will be a physical representation of the tank-healer bond.
Draenic Wildstaff
Obtained from:
Avatar of the Martyred
, Auchenai Crypts
One of the few non-epics on this list, but it is a beautiful staff nevertheless. The flowers bud and bloom, and it is covered with green foliage. A very druid staff.
Origin of Nightmares
Obtained from:
Grobbulus
(Normal 25), New Naxxaramas
A totem-like bird staff. It actually matches druid T6 quite well, even though it came an expansion late. Unknown to us at the time, it was the last true bear weapon we'd ever see.
Twin's Pact
Obtained from:
Fjola Lightbane
(Normal 25) in Trial of the Crusader, Horde only
This staff was a brief reminder of the old-fashioned feral designs. Unfortunately, it is Horde only (and the Alliance equivalent is super boring). It's made out of a shoveltusk horn and it's probably one of the biggest staves out there.
Frostscythe of Lord Ahune
Obtained from: Frozen Core (daily satchel from killing Lord Ahune), only available during Fire Festival
Largely useless to most classes, it sure does strike an imposing figure.
Sulfur Stave
Obtained from:
Loatheb
(Normal 10), New Naxxaramas
I don't really like creepy skeleton bats, but to each his own. At least it's interesting.
Shadow Wing Focus Staff
/
Conifer Cone Staff
Obtained from: Various bosses in Blackwing Lair / Random Northrend drop
It's got this funny pinecone or dragon tail tip on the end, what's more to want? Some models look like they have an eyeball.
Charmed Cierge
Obtained from: Four Horsemen (Normal 10), New Naxxaramas
Three candles and bright-eyed skulls. It's basically your own flashlight.
Devotion
Obtained from:
Yogg-Saron
(Normal 10), Ulduar
A reader recommended this one to me, and I happen to agree that there is a subtle elegance to this weapon. It also won't hurt to add a few true WotLK weapons to this list.
Polearms
Now, staves are obviously the best option, but sometimes we have to use polearms. Blizzard stated that only bows, guns, and crossbows are interchangeable, so we can infer that you can't make your polearm look like a staff. Sad news, but maybe there are some good looking pokey stick alternatives.
Black Ice
Obtained from:
Malygos
(Normal 10), in Eye of Eternity
A big, bright, blue polearm! It honestly looks more like a staff or axe from BC, but that's what makes it awesome.
Shivering Felspine
Obtained from: Sunwell trash
The model is not the most interesting,b ut it has some bright Sunwell coloring, and is more prestigious than most of the other options.
Halberd of Desolation
Obtained from:
High Warlord Naj'entus
, Black Temple
It's got some interesting spikes, right? More than the usual single spike.
Lantresor's Warblade
(Alliance) /
Lantresor's Warblade
(Horde)
Obtained from: Questing in Nagrand
It's a simple design, but a rare opportunity as druids to look like we're wielding a giant sword. Also potentially rare because most people would have finished the quests and vendored the item by now.
Hellreaver
Obtained from: Hellfire Ramparts
Famous for being the baby DK weapon of choice once they venture out into the real world, this polearm also benefits from the giant two-hand sword appearance.
Battle Scythe
/
Telaari Polearm
/
Grim Scythe
Obtained from: Various places, check wowhead links
These weapons share the same simple and effective model. Want to look like the dealer of death? Go find one of these.
