Grand List of Customization Suggestions

With new customizations coming and it still being a constant request for. I’ve compiled a list of the more common Customization Suggestions for each race.

These are just simple list of general concepts and ideas. I try not to get into too many specifics or focus on concepts that are just unlikely. I will leave those to the individual customization threads. (I also want to give the Blizzard Artist room to do their thing.)

Feel free to add your own ideas and discussions. And point out errors in grammar/spelling. I will try to add any popular ideas I can fit in this format.

Options for Every Race

Every Race

The new customization options where a major improvement in many cases, but some of the additions where not quite implemented in a good way and some basic options like scars are missing from most races.

Common Suggestions for All Races

  • More Hair/Beard Styles.
  • Eyebrow Customizations.
  • More Scars and Scars separated from Faces.
  • Tattoo and Marking Options for Races without them.
  • Blind Eye and Heterochromia options Simplified as a Toggle.
  • Jewelry Options for Every Gender.
  • Glasses/Monocle/Eyepatch as Customization Options so they can be worn with Helmets. Or to be made into cosmetic items.
  • Heritage Armor for Races that have not gotten theirs yet.
  • Voice Selection Options.
  • Body size options.
  • Racial Name Selection for Subraces. (High Elf, Sand Troll, Wildhammer, ect.)
  • More Subrace Options.

Dracthyr

Dracthyr

Dracthyr’s main issues seem to be not resembling other WoW Dragons and having limited Visage Forms.

Dracthyr Suggestions

Dracthyr Body Customizations

  • More Body Type Options.
  • Option to increase the size of the head/neck.
  • The option to see the teeth with the mouth closed like other WoW dragons.
  • Different Dragonkin Customizations.
  • Black Dragon options.

Visage Form Customizations

  • Allow other Races to be chosen as a Visage Form.
  • Change the Model/Animations so they don’t look so much like Humans/Blood Elves.
  • More skin colors then normal human ones, like Trolls or Night Elves.

Drakthyr Armor

  • Allow more armor pieces to be shown in Drakthyr form.
  • Fix the clipping on some of the Customization Armor options.

Classes

  • Allow Drakthyr to choose more classes then just Evoker.

Allied Races

Void Elves

Void Elves are currently in a unique spot with recent High Elf/Dark Ranger themed additions, but they did not receive anything new related to the Void theme yet.

The best path going forward would be to add more Void Themed options, as well as adding things to differentiate them more from Blood Elves.

Void Elf Suggestions

Markings/Corruption

  • Tattoos/Markings like Alleria. (Both her Void and Non Void forms.)
  • Darker Void Infused Skin/Eye Colors.
  • Entropic Embrace customizations.
  • Scars/Void Marks.

Tentacles/Hair

  • Add Tentacles for all haircuts that don’t have the option to toggle them on.
  • More Void Inspired hair colors/effects.
  • The ability to change Tentacle Colors.
  • More hair styles, preferably some that are more managed/styled and less messy looking, and made with the Tentacle Toggle in mind.

Nightborne

Nightborne where a well loved NPC race in Legion, but the Player options and appearance fall short of the NPCs and they lack a lot of differentiation.

  • More Eye Colors.
  • More Tattoo Patterns.

Mechagnomes

Mechagnomes enjoy some unique customizable body parts but the mechanizations hide legs/boots/gloves so it’s very hard for Mechagnome to look unique from each other. Separation of options and more colors for parts would greatly help making them more unique from each other.

Great thread Drede! Wow, love it.

Dwarf Suggestions

What Dwarves got was pretty great, but there are a few odd omissions from the first pass that would make for easy fixes.

  1. Accessories colour, ergo the cuffs in female dwarf braids, all piercings, and male dwarf beards. Right now they’re all defaulted to gold, but nearly every other race has at least a few options for colour, including gnomes. The dwarf jewelry is some of the most prominent of all the races, it doesn’t make sense to exempt them from being able to make those items, say, silver, or bronze. The feathers as well should have a few colour options, much like night elf leaves.

  2. Tattoo colours, which are nice currently but again oddly limited. For example, it’s currently impossible to get the same colour tattoos as actual Wildhammer NPCs. There’s also no option for black tattoos, and the current green doesn’t actually match the Wildhammer tabard, it’s a strange lime green.

Gnomes

  1. Female gnomes need more of everything, honestly. They gained so few new updates that they’re currently the only core race without a second tab in their customization. I assume this was due to a lot of stuff already made being cannibalized for Mechagnomes, but there’s very little reason why they can’t share even some.

  2. Mechanical limbs, which seems like a no-brainer, and can easily be done in a way that differentiates them from Mechagnomes. Even just the arms, or an eye, would add a lot of combinations.

Overall

More shared hairstyles, especially between races that are close culturally. Human females still don’t have a proper braid hairstyle, despite there literally being a Dwarven District in Stormwind, where braids are all the rage. Swapping styles between the races, altered to fit the given culture, would not only make sense lorewise but is something that’s been done before when the barbershop first opened.

Give us a way to color our nails

Since it hasn’t been mentioned Meta needs customization imo. While it does retain hair color thats all it does, doesn’t even retain tattoo color which the player has selected iirc.

Great googly moogly, that’s a big post (15 default .doc pages). Megathread indeed.

Just taking this a bit at a time, I don’t think Dark Ranger/San’layn are really appropriate for a generic “Blood Elf” customization. They just come with too much implication and baggage - these are undead creatures, on the opposite side of the life/death equation.

That said, I do think more demonic Blood Elves would fit. Something that leans more towards the Kael’thas’ Felblood, Sunwell Goons line of aesthetic.

Welcome.

Honestly there’s no reason Eyepatches/Monocles/Glasses shouldn’t be a thing separate from helmets/hats so we can have both.

Huh oh, think that one got deleted by mistake, I’m going to have to redo it. Thanks for pointing it out.

I’m not sober enough to add anything reasonable. I just wanted to give a bump.

If we can out-FF14 with customization and vanity options, that would be a win on so many levels.

At this point, I really wish they would finish Heritage Armor for the core races. Not exactly a customization but transmog can be a heavy function of who a character is.

For Vulpera, the addition of head hair that isn’t tied to fur would be lovely, where it makes sense. Albino option for all races.

I often wonder what lengths Blizzard could add to Vulpera and Worgen and Tauren hairstyles if they really applied themselves. All three are fairly limited.
