Draenei Heritage Armor

Which is sad. Draenei should have been what the Broken are. Current Draenei could still be in the game, but as some type of renegade Eredar, totally unrelated to the Draenei.

Having everything be so closely tied together has always been an issue with mine with the story. It’s like if Star Wars went from Luke & Leia being siblings to Han also being their lost brother, the Emperor being their grandfather, and Obi Wan being their uncle.

I mean… Rey Palpatine. It’s not so unbelievable, is it?

Honestly I like the TBC Draenei more than the WC3 form. It was an incredibly massive retcon, and indeed almost all the base Eredar/Draenei lore has been retconned, but ultimately they gave us something rather unique and interesting. I think it was a good move. :man_shrugging:

I think they could have given us basically what we have now without retconning the actual Draenei. But it’s not my story, so I can’t control how “convenient” everything always ends up being.

I have a feeling their set will be similar to paladin t4 with modifications of course.

It should be something in direction T4 but shiny …

Long as they don’t make the gold too bronze again like they did with t17, I’m all for it.

Honestly it should be like Yrel’s HotS armor:

oh my gosh that top skirt is so cute I need it

That art in general is so darn cute. HotS Yrel is top tier cutie. And yeah her armor is great, would really fit current Draenei.

Maybe minus the heartshape, that goes a little too far into the “cutesie waifu” look for me.

I’d still love a good skirt though, that’s actually a skirt that’s built for Draenei and not hacked off so they don’t have to worry about the tail. Not that there’s a lot of skirts in the first place, and then there’s one that’d go with my planned transmog. The BIGGEST thing I’m hoping for I think for the Draenei heritage armor though is a good circlet.

KIL’JAEDEN GIMME YOUR CIRCLET

Wait what heartshape?

I’d like that they gave us a headpiece that took advantage of the horns. At least the base of them. I find it really bad how these race-specific armors don’t take advantage of the races’ unique features at all and are still made to fit humans.

I’m pretty fond of some of this guy’s ideas:

I especially like his mage one.

Incidentally, this guy has done a lot of cool concept art for racial armor. I always like to plug his work :stuck_out_tongue:

On the top one, the chestpiece has a heartshape in it.

And yup the headpiece with the horns is one of the things I also really liked about that design. Sadly there’s a lot of horn shapes so that makes it harder.

Oh lmao, it doesn’t look like that in game, I think it’s just a visual accident of the angle here.

Yeah it makes it harder for sure, but they could at least use the base of the horns that’s standard.

This is definitely what I want for Draenei Heritage armor, represents their nomadic nature.

I mean, we’re not going to get it, probably going to be a recolor of the LF one.

Sorry I’m currently leveling an alliance in Korrak and it always leaves me bitter and resentful of everything and everyone.

Yes make this happen ( The human heritage armor not the removal of DH)

I want to see a bunch of players running around SW looking like the city guards and watch people run up to them looking for directions.

You know what, sure let’s remove Demon Hunters, while we’re at it let’s remove Warlocks as well.

I hope its better than the lightforged set. Not so crazy about it.
