Forest Troll Race/Customization Megathread

Anyway regardless of Troll Type, I can see the Zandalari being involved heavily in any further Troll Tribe Recruitment.

Or all tribes since it is about time we stop genociding them and give them some victories?

New event is a Mists remix and the characters we create for it, will be swapped over to retail after the event concludes. Which is rather nice and Iā€™m thinking of creating a Darkspear for the event, not sure on the class yetā€¦ perhaps an Enhancement Shaman.

Which means that when we get playable Forest Trolls, Iā€™ll make one and have my own Darkspear, Zandalari, and Forest Troll characters.

ā€œTons. Skardyn are back. Dalaran is destroyed and Khadgar dies. Thereā€™s a new race of dark troll type things called ā€œharronirā€ who appear to be a secret second allied race ala vulpera. Kā€™aresh was a world soul and Xalā€™atath is the Harbinger specifically of Dimensius.ā€

So we are meeting a new type of Dark Troll, known as the Harronir, and thereā€™s already speculation that it will become a new allied race. If that does happen, Iā€™m hoping that it wonā€™t prevent Forest Trolls from becoming playable in Midnight.

The return to Quelā€™Thalas and Zulā€™Aman just seems the perfect to introduce them.

Iā€™m unsure at this time that they will be. Theres a lot odd about their model despite the amount theyā€™ve added to it.

But its also early and the oddities may just be because theyā€™re in alpha.

Thats a great one, especially the lynx.

I would be so down for this if they didnā€™t just role Wildhammer customizations into base Dwarf. I wish Wildhammer was an allied race, but at least I can still be one. You guys got shafted by not even being given a customization for it.

By Bwonsamedi, did I actually call that?

Time well till. Though if the Harronir do become playable, I can still see Forest Trolls becoming so as well.

Possibly.

Its early to tell yet but at the very least weā€™ll definitely interact with either dark troll remnants or more likely the ā€œmissing linkā€ between trolls and elves. Which is cool on its own.

If the Harronir become playable there is no reason the Forest Trolls shouldnā€™t continue to be requested nor that they couldnā€™t be an AR.

I could say Iā€™d worry adding Forest Trolls after Harronir is too many trolls but we have so many elves. I mean, Iā€™d play a forest troll.

Harronir are also Elves too just more different than regular elves and trolls.

tbh theyā€™re kinda like to Firbolg from D&D. Hairy gentle awkward giants. Even the girlies can have sideburns.

But Furbolg already took the name. And their are oh so hairy with their fur!

I have to admit that I didnā€™t expect the Earthen to end up with the Rasputin dance and now that Iā€™ve seen it, I canā€™t help but wish the Forest Trolls received it.

Iā€™m actually not sure what kind of dance the Forest Trolls could get.

Saw this post and made me wonder how people would react to Zulā€™Aman actually being the neutral city in Midnight. I have to say that I would be very surprised, but at the same excited since it would be something rather unexpected.

Now while I can see people declaring that a neutral Zulā€™Aman would mean that Forest Trolls would be neutral allied race, like the Earthen, I donā€™t think that it would be the case. After all both the allied races did welcome the aid of both factions before joining the Horde and Alliance. Not sure what the Alliance would get to balance it out though.
