/cries in draenei

It is pretty crappy being literally the only core race that can’t change eye color. We share this feat with the Dark Irons and the Nightborne also the LF Draenei. Hope we can get ours by the time the allied races get their customizations.

I do like what we got though. We got some good hair styles, I would actually change my hair style for once. I quite like the tail customization and the jewelry.

I wasn’t much a fan of the new horn styles though. I also don’t like the fat tendrils.

At least your race actually got new options /crys in lightforged draenei. female LF literaly got 0 additions. Cant even make our tails longer like normal draenei.

The real crime was taking totem mastery away from my draenei shaman :sob:

i got new stuff but it wasn’t enough WAHHHHHH

This is why the elf customization got so much hate leading up to this.

A few races got basically nothing, or very little variety, meanwhile the Sin’dorei, the traitors, and the tree-elves got like a million options while I’m sitting here with my single eye colors and awful new hairstyles.

I made a female draenei and used the thicker tendrils. Looked a hell of a lot better.

Guess draenei were made so perfect there weren’t really any improvements to be made.

I’m sorry you have to go through this, Namisan. These are truly difficult times.

Says the blood elf, lol.

I have no idea where they got the idea of thicc tendrils over eye color options for Draenei. I remember folks asking for longer tendrils, but not thiccer.

I mean, it’s hard to improve perfection.

My warrior does.

Ehh, i don’t mind it, other then i wish the gem color was separated from the metal color.

Good. I always wanted Yrel horns on the regular Draenei, and we finally got them. Plus, some of the horns on the Lightforged are pretty cool. It’s not “race change your draenei into a lightforged” cool because i like having more customization options in total at my disposal here.

All around, i like the new options they have added. And hope they add in more options. :slight_smile:

I was hoping for a red Draenei and chose the one that is slightly red, but it is just barely red.

Plus why are the male horns part of the hair style?

I tried, I really did. I posted in the threads, I made constructive arguments. We got… Well, we did better than undead or gnomes, but still we’re down at the bottom 50%.

I know some people wanted the thicker tendrils and that’s fine. I think they look terrible, but that’s just me.

The biggest issue is that they lied to us. We were promised awesome crystalline jewelry? We got one circlet that clips almost every hair style and they wasted tons of “options” on slightly different hues of gold. They’re different, but more than half are the same as trying to find the difference between two bright red lipsticks. I can’t tell the difference between fire engine red and cherry red by sight unless I’m holding both next to one another.

It’s the same problem Worgen have where 30 of their options are eye colors. Sure, 30 looks like a lot, but when you can only pick 1? It’s pretty lackluster compared to orcs or night elves or even tauren who got 5 eye colors, 5 scars, 5 eyebrows, 5 tattoos, 5 piercings, and 5 jewelry options. Both got 30, but one has a ton of mix and match variety, the other has… 1.

I’d much rather have gotten 4 jewelry colors (polished gold, matte gold, polished silver, matte silver) and scars, broken horns, cut tendrils, and eye colors than 15 jewelry colors where 8+ of them are gold 103 hue, gold 99 hue, gold 95 hue, and aren’t really obvious unless you’re actually at the barbershop.

Compared to how amazing my druid looks with her new hair, scars, one blind eye, nose stud, vines… It’s hard not to be jealous.

I have to agree thick tendrils look so bad. The original ones look thin and cute.

I’ve waited since 2014 for them to fix the hairstyles since they ruined the ponytail & made it saggy. I could give a heck less about anything else - I got a donut bun and I am HAPPY.

All races need some more customization except orcs, humans and tauren.

I hope they can add more as they go along. In other games new options (even if just hairstyles) come out every couple patches.

Seriously! That saggy ponytail they broke in WoD is ridiculous. The blood elves shared that same hairstyle, but they managed to not break it on them with the WoD character revamp.

I’m super disappointed with the Draenei options. The eye thing bugs me the most. How difficult would it have been to add a couple blind eye options at the very least?

Well, tough luck for those that wanted more customisation for Dreanei. I, for one, am happy with my LFdreanei Pally. ( Although, I really wanted NIght elf pallly)

i don’t know i like the changes blizz gave to the draenie and all the old raceses, quite frankly i am happy about it, i mean have you seen the hair with jewelry and the crown you female draenie where given?? my worgen self have no jewelry on me *sniff my human self does dough but seriously have you seen the new hair style with those jewelry?? (freaking cool i must say)

anyway don’t fret much come future patches more might be added this was said last year’s blizzcon. it’s will take time.

just like it took time to fix my chiwuawa face from back at cataclysm (i don’t really like to remember it though) but it is all about time.
