Can we finally get playable the high elves? (Part 1)

Thats because they didnt update their model, cause they literally dont matter, not because its a subrace, stop lying to yourself and making up headcanon, blizzard already said they are the same race, period

They’ve had over a decade to make an update and they have updated other models from BC to fit the modern game… since they haven’t made that update its cannon that there are at least two skeletal riggs/structures for High Elves.

As a Dwarf all I can say is YUCK!

ye elvs alwaz ask’n for more, whitha beauuta! ye lack the consideration of tha otha races on Azeroth. Alwaz looking down on othas! Alwaz finding ones own complectiuun tha pride of their thoughts!

Whens ita anuff? Bah! Back to meh mountan! All this pretty squabblin has made meh work up a thirsta for some ALE!!

There are a few possible reasons this is not happening:

  1. They want to leave open the possibility of a future Alliance v Horde conflict - OR -
  2. It’s just too much of a coding change - OR -
  3. It would make leveling with Chromie time confusing.

They didnt, because they dont care and dont matter, there is tons of ingame models that arent updated, stop trying to force this bs that not even you believe.

New Heritage would be cool. Not a fan of the Void Elf one even for my characters that use the original customizations.

Because the blood elf active racial is based on mana tap, which the high elves refused to use.

So at least that would likely be different.

High Elves still had to get their addiction sated, however. They just used mana tap on magical objects and not mana wyrms.

Okay if you want to bring down to what matters - there’s money Blizzard is leaving on the table - tons of people are asking for High Elves… this thread is proof of that. Discord servers dictated to the cause.

All Blizzard has to do is realize they would like that money… and whatever other argument you throw out there is meaningless against that. Warcraft has no story integrity - they retcon this narrative on the regular so previously established facts can be thrown out at anytime.

Or would you prefer Blizzard not act its own financial interests?

Which is why I’d say they wouldn’t have it as their racial. That ability by its design is only used on “living” things.

That said… I also don’t think it’s a big deal. Like it’s just a reason they might not have the same racial. Whether blizzard would care that much especially since at this point in the story that aspect isn’t as big an issue… :person_shrugging:

the high elves got better due to using mana infused items and artifacts from the Kirin Tor otherwise they would have become Withered.

tbh if they dont give 'high elves" in midnight i dont think they will ever become their own “faction” velves were a mistake and should have just done “high elves” imho.
this whole round about they have been spinning for decades is completely unnecessary.

The Blood/High Elves become wretched when they over-indulge. The Withered are the Nightbornes issue.

I was under the impression that High Elves became wretched when they became mana starved.

Nah it’s the opposite. The nightborne have the mana starved issue.

With my seizures I am pretty much always a high elf, see the red eyes?

My question is to everyone, why prevents you from RPing a high elf?

yes that is the case just like the nightwell did to nightborn.

you didnt play tbc…

I punch a High elf I ever cross one.

Which means there’s a market for punching High Elf players in game - which means there’s a market to make high elves a thing?
