That’d be an interesting question to hear answered from Blizz, how many Helves are there compared to the new Velf population.
But at the end of the day I’m all for them adding the Helves in-game in a way that does not make the lore seem weird.
I’m all for Helves being added at the end of the day though. I’ve wanted to play one since wrath and always felt a tiny bit jealous when I saw them running all over ToT lol. I feel that if they end up adding them in (which I’d say is more likely than not based on community suport) they will do it in a way that reflects how few there are remaining.
Hopefully they don’t force them in like they did Mag’har in a underdeveloped state, due to them being an unplanned addition.
They deserve to be fleshed out since they’ve been in game and desired for so long.
