High Elf compromise

Model stealing is fine if that model doesn’t exist on the faction.

Giving Highmountain tauren to the horde when they’re the exact same as regular tauren is isn’t.

I 100% disagree

I think that’s also bad, but they did the same thing for almost every allied race. Did you get upset about that? 'Cause brown skinned orcs is the exact same thing as reguular orcs if that’s the case.

This is not what happens, and thats why yours points, and the points of the high elvers should not be taken serious.

but what you are doing is exactly that, nitpicking, trying to make the horde bad and alliance good, so elves like lotr, should be good, and should be alliance, its an asinine mentality that do not belong in warcraft, go play another game who fit those standards

No, The alliance players who didn’t realize that blizzard cannot put a horde race playable in the alliance, that is no misunderstood, they saw they could not do it, and instead did something close enough

But apparently is enough to make then tear off their hairs in anger, right?

And blizzard already did that, they already made then look different, they change their color LUL

because they are not nelfs

no

no

we don’t need races crossing factions, we don’t need factions lines blurring even more

There’s like 3 people that keep whining about high elves and they’re all continuously bumping that one thread.

I still think this would be the best compromise.
I quite like it.

They’re night elves with high elf heads.

A Blood Elf walks into a tavern and orders a fruit-based wine, drinks it, and then leaves.

Shortly afterwards, a nearby patron commits on how lovely that High Elf who ordered the fruit-based wine was.

Give em night elf heads

Nah, high elf heads are what’s appropriate.

Lol
Good luck with that

Horde got night elves with troll heads, seems like it’d work :wink:

Were the Zandalari the most challenging because it doesn’t use another model like the other 5 allied races?

S: Most difficult because it’s a unique rig. It’s a modified Troll rig (straight, instead of hunch). Required a little more time on the touch ups. Same amount of time spent on them for customization options than the other allied races.

Was wondering where people were getting that.
Kinda odd they had night elf animations for a while.
It’s more likely the troll model made to fit the night elf animations which they then modified. It’s definitely not the troll animations except for the maybe the face.
They’re also talking about the model. Does make sense it’d require the most touch ups to get it to work with the NE animations since they’d have to get the proportions and such fit to it.

They really just need to do away with the faction divide at this point. It’s boring and over played and makes no sense lorewise.

Most of your responses are just mindless vitriol but this one is worth responding to. Blizzard blurred faction lines when they put high/blood elves on Horde. They blurred faction lines by putting Void Elves on Alliance. And by making Nightborne Horde. And by making Zandalari into light-worshipers. And by putting werewolves on Alliance. And by making dark irons playable. Compared to those races, high elves are a breath of fresh air and puts a race in that reinforces what Alliance is all about.

And I wasn’t asking you specifically about eredar. There’s point in directing a question like that at someone who would not answer in good faith.

Yes. I thought it was stupid. Same for dark iron and lightforged draenei.

They gave us something that should have just been customization options. Not an entire race.

Put in an in game suggestion for them! Under the help tab. :heart:

It certainly wouldn’t hurt. More voices the better.
