I don’t know, Blizzard is weird it’s why despite finding the upcoming Man’ari customizations for Draenei cool, I feel they aren’t what they could be and should be because they are basically just red skintones which is fine but it’s not the same as NPC stuff so I look at it like Nightborne vs NPC Nightborne.

Yep, I’m hoping there is more to it but not expecting it. Story will probably say they no longer have the fel features due to being the good guys. Despite us being able to have fel eyes still, DH and Orcs existing too.

Dark Ranger customization that elves JUST GOT is close enough to San’Layn.
this is like a fellow restaurant customer, telling customers at the next table that are asking the waitress for ketchup and mustard for their meal, that they should be satisfied with salt and pepper. close enough man.

They gave us non-blue looks cuz they didn’t want to give High Elves. By doing that they killed any hope for VE new looks as long as HE are unplayable.
i dont think so. if anything it’ll just slow down any customizations for both helf and velf, since it’ll be perceived poorly no matter what. give velf, helf get mad. give helf, belf get mad. we’re dooomed, doooomed i say
We were doomed when we got VE before HE.
It’s ironic isn’t? That most VEs chose to look non-blue.

you know theres a disconnect when the velf customization thread has over 17,000 replies yet we are nearly at the bottom of the list of available customizations. lol and i imagine belfs have even more replies in their thread and have fewer customizations than half of the other races.
I never understand this - so many elf haters on the forums act like Blizz resources are so scarce that more than one/two races can’t get extra customization at one time. Like ??? It’s not war rations dude, or at least it shouldn’t be. 
And like, yes, there are races that don’t have tons of customizations, and they should absolutely get more customizations. But, just because other races have been neglected by Blizz doesn’t mean that people can’t advocate for more customizations for their favorite race - especially customizations that people have been requesting for years.

/thread. Teylari wins. Pack it in, gang.
Thank you for saying what half of us have been trying to say this whole time.
Someone asking for customization options for their favorite race should not be a threat to you. If you want to direct your anger anywhere, direct it as Blizzard for being so bad at this. We ALL deserve more options. We can debate who should get what first, but this level of vitriol is absurd.

I fully expect another blood elf heritage quest before Pandas get their first.
we probably won’t get it… the san’layn usually showed up as the blood princes with their cool armor we don’t have unless that mage variation from icc that for some reason is purely restricted to them, and the san’layn that showed up in icc they had the dk appearence, blue eyes and white skin.
i’m sure later on they made use of it with the dark hunter red eyes customization with sanl’layn but…
either way, there is also the class problem, fundamentally a dead elf got everything to be considered san’layn, all you need to do is give them some blood roleplay along with it.

the blood princes used the night elves face as a base, but they are dead blood elves, and the blood princes model they share some of the blood elves animations… but most of all they have their own unique model animations, to walk, to speak, as they stand and how they move standing still.
I think it’s probably because early on there were Helves and Belves that were the Nelf model. Sylvanas had it at one point. And then they just never updated it because they were always wearing the face mask. Or they turn into the look of their genetic cousins when turned into a vampire…

Void Elves are literally a copy-paste of the Blood Elf race, minus the fel-green eyes.
So the Blood Elves should get two heritage quests lol.
If Undead got ‘human’ undead (Like Nathanos) forms - Then later had ‘Alive’ skins added, but humans got a bonus heritage quest and cooler gear — I don’t think many would be singing the same tune of bonus heritage = too much.
Honestly, Blizz should’ve just bit the decade long bullet & given Alliance official High Elves. The whole void elf nonsense for both lore and how it weaves into gameplay is just a whole bloody mess.
To some, that’s a pro – Not a con.
