How to become a dinosaur druid in WoW with the new patch 8.1.5

In a developer stream, the makers of World of Warcraft talked about the upcoming patch 8.1.5 and also introduced the new allied races. A suspicion that had already existed was confirmed: Zandalari Druids will become dinos.

How do I become a dino? To get the new dino forms in WoW, you first need to unlock the new Zandalari Troll race. This will appear with patch 8.1.5, which according to new information will be playable on March 13.

The Zandalari Trolls have one of their possible classes as Druids. As shapeshifters, Druids can take on different forms that look different across all races. For the Zandalari, they are dinos. The forms have already been found earlier by data miners.

If you want to take a look at the forms right now, you can play Zandalari Trolls and Humans from Kul Tiras on the PTR. You just need to download the PTR and get started.

How to unlock Zandalari Trolls: With patch 8.1.5, the quest lines for the two new allied races will be unlocked. For the Zandalari Trolls, you will first need to meet certain requirements:

  • reach level 120 with a character
  • gain a revered reputation with the “Zandalari Empire”
  • Complete the War Campaign up to and including “Tides of Vengeance”

After that, a quest to unlock the Zandalari Trolls will be available to you. Complete it, and you can create a Zandalari Troll. If you level him yourself from level 20 to the maximum level, you will even receive a heritage set as a cosmetic item.

Why dinosaurs? In the stream, the developers explain why the Zandalari Trolls receive dinosaurs as forms. This is said to be related to the fact that they worship special gods, the Loa. The connection of the Zandalari to their gods should be better represented.

You can see the explanation again in the video embedded below starting from around minute 29:35.

One reason for the decision was also that due to the artifact weapons in Legion, experience was already made with different forms. It was decided to experiment with dinos, and so the first form became the travel form, which already existed as a raptor model and was slightly adjusted. Over time, the ideas for the dino forms emerged.

What do you think of the forms?

If you prefer to pledge allegiance to the Alliance, you will unlock the Kul Tiran in patch 8.1.5:
