Night elf units feedback

First of all, vast majority of Nelf units look awesome! Just giving a feedback on few that I didn’t like.

Hippogryph - looks too cute, like a toy. Its too… round and colorful. It might be a good idea to stick with more serious version from wc3.

Archer - belly looks weird. Not muscular nor fat, but some amalgamation. Also, arrows need improvement.

Female DH - I love the idea of multiple skins for heroes. However, female DH has not the best voice acting and could look more messed up. Demon hunter are exiles from Nelf society and should look really different. I like the fact that she’s skinny and flat (don’t give her huge boobs plz). Also, face is … too plain.

Druid of Claw - doesn’t really look like a bear…

About Hyppogriph - Definately right! its like flying chicken that fell asleep at the paint factory. Its too colorfull! Colors must be a little darker overall. But what makes me really aware, is the model of Hyppogriph. its close to gryphon. No. please make it more similar to older wc3 model, thinner and more “sharper” i would say.

I really like the Druid of the Claw! I kind of wish there was a Heroic variant of it now.

Actually for me hipo raiders are the best looking after grunt and shaman :smiley:

Metamorph model can still be improved, darker or with aura magic effect. Demon Hunter voice from WoW is better than Reforged.

Feemale DH looks kinda hmm, I dunno, like she is missing soemthing or something.

I liked the female Death Knight a lot more!

I think the same voice actrees could have been used so, we could have gotten a female lich instead.

BEARS!

Bears look too small IMO, as is problem with many of current Warcraft 3 units.

Aside from this I think the vas majority of tthings looks cool and it isnt worth mentioning in a bad way, cuz nitpicking isnt really my style.

KOTG and the Huntresses are what realyl caught my eye, I can only dream of what Naisha would look like in Frozen Throne if we get there.

From all the races, I have to say that, right now, Night Elves appear most distuingishable (if this is even a word).

After them Undead, well see if ORcs and Humans can get better, but Blizzard please something about the terrain next!

K, some units looks amazing but new blizz still has some work on their mind to do, this isnt WoW.

Altar is awful for nelf society, pls turn it back as before, dont do a belf poop, I dont understand that change. very Lore breaking.

DH female. “could” be possible but very snowflake among snowflakes. Would be a slave/learning. Women in nelf society are VERY disciplined and commited to their duty. they even dream about it everyday. Being a Dh means letting all of that away, and its lore breaking once more. But meh, could be acceptable I guess, tho doesnt look good and respectful for nelf lore. They would rather die…

the bear is really too small.

Wells also could be much better.

the Warden changes are not very appealing compared to the amazing old design.

Rest looks good and respectful. gj. But no lore breaking new blizz pls

Exactly. So many units are frigging tiny compared to their environment. Its ridiculous and the opposite of wc3 FT.

hippos are incredibly distracting, one of the best parts of classic warcraft 3 was the simplicity in the coloring and art for your vision. I’m finding the fights incredibly distracting and really difficult to tell where certain units are, heroes etc… It’s not defined well enough between allied units and enemy units and a majority of the art is just distracting.

druids in bear form should be much bigger imho

I’m not a big fan of the hippos either, I agree they’re a bit too ‘cute’. I also think the DotC bear form is a bit too small, though they look brilliant in their elf form!

Most of the rest I think are really good, especially the Ancients, which are probably the biggest improvment for me; I never liked their original design much and the reforged versions look amazing.

I just feel the female DH looks real lackluster, there’s no definition, also the voice is terrible and the movement is off…

Archer’s need to stand more upright and look a little leaner.

As for the sizing of the unit’s, it’s to match their stupid silhouette - again, making reforged have to be compatible with classic is a total f-up.

Archers look like they have chronic back pain or something. Why are they hunched over all the time? They even fire their bows like that.

Altar is good as it is. NE models are globally beautiful.
Perhaps, they need to increase their scales.
Also, archers and Female DH are really bad. They need an improvement.

I will also say that its really just archers and DH that need the most work, everything else looking great for elf. Would be nice if archers were more easily recognizable, they have so much armor that clashes, they actually look more like Eastern continent elves, and not wild and naturey. Maybe simpler armor, and more recognizable bows and larger/wider capes.

Great points!

Druid of the claw is my favourite new NE model personally.
Archer is definitely the worst imo, her arms are so long and back so hunched, she looks like gollum or the flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz. Every video I’ve seen has mentioned the hunched appearance and it’s all over the comments, seems to be pretty universal. I think she could benefit from standing a little straighter.
Will add that druid bear form is way too small, it’s scaled at like, 25% less height too, which makes the animation look terrible, he transforms into a large sized bear, which immediately shrink to 20% smaller. I think the size of the bear should be equal to the NE so the animation is smoother and it doesn’t look like such a visual downgrade.
(While you’re at it, please fix the tinker so he doesn’t become 1/10th of the size)
