Blizzard being scared to just give blood elves blue eye option

I’m just going to reply with a simple fact. The sun well now imbued with the light, if it was automatically connected to every former highelf and they had no way to sever the connection then all void elfs in all dimensions that are connected to it would instantly die. This is a fact that the light and void can not mix. You are saying a race that is being empowered by the light wouldnt feel immense pain when they forcefully are imbued with the void idk what to tell you. They have the option to connect to it.

They felt immense pain when the orginal well was destroyed many would prefer to never experience that again. Many would not reconnect to the well on that level but would still hold it close to them with love.

they would not, because their transformation broke their connection

Simple as that

They would feel pain, that is understandable, but there is nothing saying they would explode

Void elves can still manipulate the light as priests

You seem to have a weird idea of void and light not being able to mix all the time but tis wrong, in Legion by example, we infuse our weapons with both light and shadow and they didn’t explored, the only weird interaction so far are with Alleria who ate a dark naa’ru and Turalyon who is lightforged

Void elves are not, just like alleria isn’t anymore

You are making that up, there is nothing saying they don’t want feel the experience again and chose to not reconnect, like we see in the shadow of the sun shortstory its just happen automatically, all elves are.

And again, why only the He would do that and not BE? like i said to the other guy, anything you want to apply to one group is applied to the other, cause they are the same race

Site where it’s been stated that they lost the connection? Nothing ever stated that, the wells lore pages does in fact state an elf connected to it. Not that all elfs are. Void elfs dont use the light at all in lore, that is gameplay btw. The bloodelfs and the highelfs have two different ideologies. So no one thing applied to one group does not automatically apply to the other.

whats different besides red and blue nylorad

and that one side represents a few individuals the other an entire high elf kingdom

I’m not going to get into it, ion made a clear statement that bloodelfs evolved past having blue eyes.

He didn’t say anything about the SC high elfs having no evolved past it. Just bloodelfs so I’m pretty sure there are more difference then what ever you want to imply.

Also we’ve seen plenty of different ideologies as well besides just being red and blue.

That’s fine I’m not going to argue with you about the word evolved nor will I argue with about how the fel mutates races to an extreme.

and while their minds and souls were still their own, the sin’dorei had been transformed by the ritual: now, having consumed the void as Alleria had**, they had achieved new powers** as well as a dangerous susceptibility to its whispers. Alleria immediately offered her aid, wanting to help her transformed kin understand and control their new forms and powers

old powers of the sunwell = gone

All high elves are, that include blood elves and the group in the alliance.

No, not rly, unless you also have something to confirm that is just gameplay, cause we have plenty of example of void users also using light

pointless

It does in this case, their only difference in ideology is one is alliance and the other is horde.

That void elf lore doesnt state they lost the connection. So good job that shows they where not connected.

I guess ion saying they evolved isnt good enough reason for you to say they are different. Ok then :man_facepalming:

where did he say they are different. he used blood elves as a broad term

This thread is going places. Unfortunately, those places form a circle.

I think it was in that same April interview where he said High Elves weren’t going to be a playable race.

it literally say they are not the same anymore, breaking all they had before, including their bodies connected with the sunwell, just having their minds and souls lul

Guess ion saying blood elves are high elves isn’t enough for you then? gonna pick what to believe now?

They dont do it because it would be pointless.
Those that want High Elves would not be satisfied at all with it.
Those that dont want, or dont care, about High Elves. Do not
need blue eyes on their Blood Elves.

if i didnt care about high elves i wouldnt be playing one and be against giving that race to the alliance and blurring the lines between the factions

Oooh semantics argument! Let’s see how long it takes for someone to respond with the old “Blood Elves aren’t High Elves” argument.

(Commentary): A bit contradictory to what Ion said, but then again, the guy said the Zandalari would have normal Druid forms instead of Dino Druid forms, and then a week later dino druid forms were datamined. Really makes anything he says lack credibility, but on the bright side, if Blood Elf players get blue eyes, that’s good for the folks that genuinely want them just to have new customization, rather than being spiteful.

And in the most recent interview that changed the lore, or rather further expanded on it. I guess you pick and choose not me. Before I would have said yes they are the same exact race. But as the lore grows and story changes so to does things that used to be facts.

The lines have been blurred since Pandas. The line became more blurred with void elfs.

The line is fake and you need to get over how pointless the “factions” are.

Those eyes look great, but they don’t look blue to me. More aquamarine.

Excuse me? I have blue eyes.
