🌿 Druid Forms – Embrace the Wild

Unlock the ancient secrets of the Druids and shapeshift into the wild beasts of Hytale! Whether you want to soar through the skies, dive into the depths, or outrun danger, nature answers your call.

Harness the power of Gaia and become one with nature through a growing progression system designed for exploration, survival, and mastery of the wild.

🏛️ The Druid Shrine

The Druid Shrine is the center of all druid progression.

At the Shrine you can:

✨ Craft the Druid Totem
✨ Upgrade eligible forms through evolution tiers
✨ Progress through Verdant, Primal, and Elder energies

The Shrine is your link to Gaia’s wild children and the foundation of every transformation path.

🌲 Class-Based Shapeshifting

Druid Forms now uses a class-based form system instead of a simple animal list.

Each class represents a role, and each role can contain multiple skins / creature variants.

⚙️ Abilities & Roles

Each class is built around a gameplay role:

🌿 Warden – healing and nature-based support

🦌 Travel – fast ground traversal
🐻 Guardian – durability and survivability

🔥 Evolution Tier System

Select forms evolve through powerful tiers:

🌿 Verdant
🌑 Primal
🌟 Elder

Upgrade your forms at the Shrine and deepen your bond with Gaia.

🖥️ Druid Form Menu + HUD

Druid Forms includes a full UI-based form system:

✔ In-game Druid Form Menu
✔ Browse by class instead of memorizing animals
✔ Select skins within each class
✔ Persistent HUD icons showing your active class
✔ Improved selection highlighting and usability

🎯 Quick Select Radial Menu (NEW)

Quickly access your forms without needing to type /shapeshift commands.

✔ Radial quick-select wheel for all classes
✔ Fast, intuitive selection during gameplay
✔ Seamless transition into the Class Skin Menu
✔ Designed for smooth mid-action shapeshifting

The radial menu allows you to instantly choose a class, then refine your selection through the full UI when needed.

🛠️ How to Play

1️⃣ Craft the Druid Shrine
2️⃣ Craft the Druid Totem
3️⃣ Keep the Totem in Slot 1
4️⃣ Use /shapeshift commands or right-click while holding your Druid Totem (or class item like the Life Seed) to open the Quick Forms menu and select a class

⚠️ Druid Warning:
The Druid Totem binds to Slot 1 while channeling forms.

Placing other items in that slot while transformed may cause them to be lost.
