As a collector and transmog enthusiast, Heritage Armor was one of my favorite new additions in BfA. I love the idea of having armor that represents your race’s heritage. And so far, I’ve enjoyed every Heritage Armor set that has been released. But that doesn’t mean these sets couldn’t use some improvements, because they definitely could. Here’s some ideas i wanted to throw out that i think could make certain Heritage Armor sets a little bit better.
- Void Elf
My main problem with this set is also the best part of this set. The wings. Why must the beautiful Void wings be attached to the chest piece? These wings could be used in unique transmogs in so many different ways, but are sadly attached to the chest piece, greatly limiting the things players can do with them. Please just make them into a back piece instead. It would make way more sense, and would be a blessing for transmoggers.
- High Mountain
Just like the above, id like to see the back totems of this set be removed from the chest piece and made into their own unique back piece instead. If Blizzard can do it with the normal Tauren Heritage Armor, they can do it with the High Mountain one too.
- Blood Elf
Give them some better shoes. You can clearly tell that they were only made for the dress option. They look like socks with some gold plating glued onto the front.
- Vulpera
Give them something for their feet. I’m not asking for actual shoes or anything, i know they have paws so shoes wouldn’t work. Some simple wrappings to go around their legs would be enough. It just bothers me for some reason that the only armor slot they don’t have something for is the foot slot. They just feel incomplete without it to me.
- Mechagnome
Please, for the love of Elune, give players these alternate tints already!
The fact that we don’t already have these boggles my mind. Currently the only one we have is that golden colored one on the left, which only matches one specific mechanization color option that Mechagnomes have. Having the other two tints would make so much sense, and they’re already in the game so it’s not like it would be hard to give them to players. Besides, it’s not like Blizzard hasn’t made more tints for a specific Heritage Armor set before…
- Nightborne
Give players the option to have either a dress, or no dress at all. Not every Nightborne player wants to run around in a dress, some would probably like to actually see their pants. You did it for the Blood Elves, you can do it for the other Elves.
I also see a lot of Nightborne players talk about how much they hate the chin armor that’s attached to the chest piece. It doesn’t personally bother me, but an option to have it off would be nice.
Oh, and having this alternate tint for their Heritage armor would be really nice as well.
- Lightforged Draenei
Give them these awesome alternate tints. That is all, i don’t really have any other issues with this set.
- Heritage Armor Weapons
This last bit i wanna talk about isn’t really about Heritage Armor, but rather what would work well with Heritage Armor… if it was in the game for players. Here are some Heritage Weapons that exist in the game but are only used for NPC’s. Please give them to the players, Blizzard!
Dark Iron Dwarf themed weapons.
I didn’t mention the rest of the Heritage Armor sets because i simply didn’t have any problems with them, or at least not any that i could think of from the top of my head. Id like to hear some ideas from you guys though!
