Totem Druid: Elemental Shape Skin

Post by Haruspex »

Can this be changed? If EDK can be changed to a totem skin, I don't see why a totem druid's elemental shape can't also have a totem skin applied. You can't readily tell what type an EDK is with the totem skin, so it's functionally the same, but if there's concern, I propose the following vfx be added. The size of the animal shape could also be scaled up for monolith form.

Fire: Combust spell vfx
Air: white/transparent aura. No idea what it's called, but the Spirits of Elg'Nizrul (or whatever) have it.
Earth: The floating stone vfx which appears when a DR spell is applied to a large creature
Water: Ghostly visage vfx or ice skin vfx (same as spellsword cold imbue)

I just think it would be better if totem druids could keep their skin no matter what shape they choose to take, as the thematic aesthetics are one of the main draws of the totem path.

I was going to reject this at first glance, but I love the VFX suggestion.

Approved.

Six years later, I am approving the VFX part of this only.

Roleplay is a two way street.
