Why is it that people who feel a need to tell you how smart and elite they are tend to be such knuckleheads?

This is rhetorical.

Hopefully to inspire to be as great as us. Better world and all that jazz. Rhetorical or not.

More of a passionate elite intellectual.

I think the main problem is that Dark Ranger options wouldn’t “work” on a Paladin or DH, like, at all, and while Blizz could probably make it so Paladins and DHs can’t access the options (kinda reversing how no other class can touch the DH or DK skintones) it wouldn’t feel great to do.

That said, give us the options, let folks have fun.

Personally, I don’t find emotional immaturity particularly inspiring.

you heard it boys the forum needs more 2/10 trolls rev up those classic alts

This would be the logical way of handling it. Class locking it where it doesn’t make sense. Then again…they could always give the class a unique ‘skin’ to match the theme. Replace the paladin light effects with red ones :thinking:

Maybe we should add a little bit of Fel to our Blood Elves, maybe smash them together with the voidy ones and see if they explode or something.

52

Okay, sure, you can have the Withered model from the Blood Elf starting zone.

53

Do you just secretly want to explode elves?

For… uh… science or whatever.

I mean, between Sir Zeliek and Calia Menethil, I’m not opposed to Forsaken having Paladins. I mean, even Lightforged Draenei and Draenei Death Knights still have light-based racials.

A San’layn Paladin might be odd, but I imagine one could explain it as something to do with the Sunwell anyways. Assuming anyone wants to be a San’layn Paladin.

This is what it really boils own to, speaking for myself. There was a time I used to be concerned with lore-appropriate customizations. Now? I like lore-abiding customizations but I’m well past the point of thinking something shouldn’t be added because lorewise it might not make sense. This entire setting has ceased to make sense. Just let players have fun.

There’s almost no concept you can’t appropriately justify in lore in a world where void elves can be serene enough to be monks and worgen death knights exist.

Also, I’m fairly sure everyone arguing against tauren and draenei rogues has never actually been around a hoofed animal on anything other than pavement. Or goats at all.

I’d like to see the following customization options for Blood Elves…

Each of these I imagine would have its own custom ‘voice’ and emotes, available during character creation, or changeable via the barber shop (via a new drop-down).

–

The Wretched

I don’t advocate re-using the NPC skins from TBC-era; these would be all new HD skins that would sit well alongside the current Blood Elf options.

  • Customization available to all Blood Elf classes except maybe Paladin…? Can anyone see a Wretched Paladin happening?
  • If player selects a Wretched skin, the new voice/emotes option automatically selects the Wretched voice and emotes

–

Dark Rangers

See Balesong’s megathread - many good ideas:

  • Customization available to all Blood Elf classes, again excepting Paladin. Apparently undead Paladins aren’t a thing, though I’d personally have no problem with that.
  • Special Heritage Armor style quest to obtain a new cosmetic set that’s essentially Dark Ranger attire, useable only by Blood Elves.
  • Special undead-sounding voices and new emotes, as with Wretched - available at character selection or in the barber shop.
  • Special Dark Ranger hunter pet - a unique black spider. Can be used by any Blood Elf hunter once tamed.
  • Special Dark Ranger undead hawkstrider mount, or an undead Quel’dorei steed, obtained via a quest or scenario.

–

San’layn / Darkfallen

See Fallynn’s thorough megathread - so many terrific ideas and images:

  • Customization available to all Blood Elf classes except Paladin.
  • San’layn regalia Heritage Armor available via a quest chain or maybe taking the player back to Northrend and doing a scenario in one of the old ICC dungeons.
  • Unique San’layn voices and emotes.
  • Unique San’layn hunter pet - a vampire bat maybe, or some kind of revenant-style mindless zombie ghoul.
  • Special San’layn mount, obtainable via quest or scenario. I envision a black hawkstrider in San’layn livery, but even cooler things are possible I’m sure.

–

It’s a lot to give to Blood Elves, but they’re the most popular race, so this could be justified as “more people will see this content and play it”.

Also since I’m excluding Paladins from the above, maybe Blood Knights could get some additional unique customization too.

You have demon hunters.

Demon hunters are a class not racial customization.
