Blood Elf Customization Thread (Glory of the Sin'dorei)

Its more the interest in than the full blown use honestly. Farstriders are mostly a defense force but they also help in the nurture of the land and its animals. They help to keep the balance of the lands of Quel’Thalas which is right up the alley of druids.

I think it would make a great deal of sense for the Farstriders to induct a new order of Druids, that uses both nature and arcane ala the Botanists concepts, to bring druids into their group. A similar interest in the magic of Shaman would be likely as well as both classes focus on balance of the natural elements around them to protect, serve and heal.

Couple that with the Blood Knights helping to heal the dead scar and I can easily see those groups coming together to finally fix the Dead Scar and save their people from the onslaught of continual undead.

Should be noted that this has effectively been written out and as far as I can tell its origin lies in some very minor mentions and the Table Top RPG which was decanonized.

That said I would love it if they brought it back with that sort of story. Using it to revitalize the forests, heal the Dead Scar, and reinforce the Guardian Stones.

It would be an amazing way to tie those old lore points together and bring them back into the fold.

Glorious I love it!

Might add some of this to the main post…

It was last mentioned in legion in the hunter artifact stories book thingy. So it’s canon at the moment.
An artifact solve from cata also mentions a dwarf making a shield using the wood from a sacred helf tree, which is presumably Thas’alah as it’s the only sacred thalassian tree we know of.

<—points at High Botanist Freywinn…literally a blood elf druid present in the game since TBC. Literally nothing is stopping blood elves from learning druidism from the other druids in the Horde.

Really!? Which hunter relic mentions it? Do you know?

Thats good then. Still a great way to tie a whole lot of old lore together in a very nice way and advance blood elven lore!

Absolutely.

A proud heirloom of the Windrunner family, Thas'dorah was carved from a bough of the mother tree of Eversong Woods shortly after the elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas was founded. Handed down to the eldest of each generation, the bow was last wielded by the high elf Ranger Captain Alleria Windrunner
This is from the old legion website when they showcased the artifacts, sadly not available anymore.

Here is the fuller background of that artifact bow that talks about the tree.

Let’s stop feeding arguments with people who already believe this game is failing, and instead, put our energy into ideas and things we want to see! :heart:

Would love another version of the Heritage appearance. The robes feel off on a hunter. Tho I did use them for awhile.

Maybe one day we could get a blood mage set and/or verdant spheres.

It could have a traditional blood elf variation, san’layn variation and a fel variation.

We could use different verdant spheres like how the orcs have different clan flags. I could see flame, light, blood and fel themed verdant spheres.

It would be really nice if belves had the same function as Draenei and Nightborne, which is the ability to change the color of your hair pieces.

It’s really frustrating that they have some really cool hair styles but the clips and scrunches don’t match your mog.

I need more braids and I want some freckle options, plus scars and tattoos and ear armor! A nice strawberry blonde hair color would also be much appreciated.

The fact that belves got only two jewelry colors and no optional hair pieces is really frustrating to me. I feel like the effort put in for belves was very minimal.

I’ve wanted some ombre looks.

I still can’t even use the jewelry at least and that was already a low bar for added options

Definitely need our Farstrider tattoos and box art runic tattoos

Oh man absolutely amazing job! I LOVE the sindorai heritage armor recolors!

What i REALLY want though is a new updated hawkstrider like the pvp one. Its such a waste of an amazing model to have for pvp which i highly consider trash. Give us one where we dont need to farm the games worst content please!

Oh also i would love the void elf hairstyle called melancholy i think for blood elves.

I’m glad they added something about it so recently! A great way to bring in the old lore and link it to new stuff still!

My main complaint about the current ones is how unbalanced they feel without the robe.

Also I wish the gloves had a no bulk option so I could have a rogue without the 3d assets. (Same for the chest.)

This would be amazing!

So much this!!!

Exactly. Honestly so far the game is starting to get much better with each patch. If only if some people would see that.

If only though…

But there is some who just prefer things to be static and doesn’t want things updated or moving forward.
