There’s also the unfortunate consequence of the pose. In a top hat, though, Running Wild looks dapper. Ever wanted to see a wolf in a skirt, loping along on all fours? Yeah, me neither. It also looks ungainly on robed classes like priests, or female death knights. The all-fours pose exaggerates the worgen’s hunchbacked look. The Running Wild look and animation are…problematic, to say the least. Whatever You Do, Try Not to Look at the Running Wild Animation (1.5 second casting time) (Available at level 20)ĭrop to all fours to run as fast as a wild animal.
The Running Wild spell also solves all the problems Plainsrunning had by being entirely different from it: even though the worgen is their own mount, the spell behaves just like other racial mount summons. This has clear roleplay support, given that wolves in the real world are capable of sustained running at speeds up to 38 mph for more than 20 minutes at a time. Rather than summoning a mount, Running Wild puts the worgen player on all fours, allowing them to run as fast as with a mount all by themselves. Running Wild is the spell worgen obtain at level 20 (and that worgen death knights start with, obviously) for their racial mount ability. The worgen’s mount skill may have some roots in Plainsrunning, but it has greater roots simply in today’s plain old mount/riding skills, as we’ll see in the next section. The buff went away the moment a player stopped moving (normal mounts don’t dismount you when you stop), and it caused players to run into mobs accidentally as well as made PVP a head-scratcher. Plainsrunning was a unique idea, but it was also a very broken one. After 10 seconds of running forward, the “mount” speed would kick in and they’d be running as fast as if they were mounted. It’s Not Plainsrunning, and Quit Listening to People Who Say It Isīack in the olden days (the Beta version of World of Warcraft), Tauren couldn’t have mounts, for roleplay reasons - they were too “big” to fit on them.
We’re going to look at what Running Wild _isn’t (_it ain’t Plainsrunning, that’s for sure), how it works and why, and talk about how Running Wild looks on the worgen and what the running animation looks like. It’s just not the pinnacle of coolness so many had hoped for. Okay, the worgen mount skill, Running Wild, isn’t all that bad.
