Travel Form

Last wiki revision 2023-11-08

Travel Form is a druid shapeshifting spell available at level 10, or learned from A Druid's Form. It allows the druid to move faster depending on the environment.

At level 17, Aquatic Form is learned, allowing Travel Form to be used underwater with the benefits of increased swim speed and underwater breathing. Rank 2 is learned at level 20, causing Travel Form to gain an additional 60% movement speed while in the land version, effectively making it an epic ground mount. This movement speed bonus will not be granted if Travel Form is activated while in combat. At level 30, Flight Form is learned, allowing Travel Form to fly after training Expert Riding.

  • This form can only be used outdoors.
  • This form changes the druid into a stag if in land-restricted areas, a very fast bird in flying-enabled areas, and a seal in the water (which is immensely useful in Vashj'ir).
  • You cannot use abilities in this form. You are also considered a Beast, so spells that target Beasts can be used on you (Hibernate, for instance).
  • Your caster form will start regaining mana 5 seconds after you change to Travel Form.
  • Travel Form has three specific advantages over a mount:
  • Unlike a mount, which players cannot use while in combat, a druid is able to shift into travel form while fighting either a mob or another player if they choose to.
  • Travel Form is instantly cast, making it even better for those sticky situations. With Travel Form, druids are able to escape from nearly any fight or simply put distance between themselves and their attackers practically whenever they wish.
  • As with any form, you may harvest herbs through herbalism, and skin dead beasts through skinning. This makes it an excellent way to achieve the fastest results with a gathering profession.
  • The ground based travel form increases your speed by 100% when activated out of combat, and 40% when in combat or when in an arena or battleground. Previously it always increased speed by just 40%. Which speed you get depends on your combat status when you shapeshift.
  • This form is instant cast, so it can be used to beat a strategic retreat if a fight is going badly. However when used in combat you'll be considered land-restricted, even in flying-enabled zones, and so must wait until you're out of combat to use the flying form.
  • The travel form does not stack with speed enchants or speed gems, with the exception of the level 60 and 70 Feral PvP 4 piece set bonus.
  • When combined with Darkflight, Worgen Druids are able to go nearly as fast as a Journeyman Mount.

It was widely speculated that a stag model was intended to be implemented from day one but changed before release, explaining the odd hoof-shaped icon, and the fact that while the other forms had unique skins, this form looked identical to cheetahs in the game.

Masquerade ability usable in Suramar City also changes Travel Form to look like a Arcanist's Manasaber.
