High Elf POSITIVITY Thread 😎

I do not agree, it would be very nice and I do not see any real reason why they could not become a single faction.

“see the entirety of the thread” Must I? Or you can just give me an obvious reason why Void Elves and High Elves would do better politically divided rather than united.

Cause let me be frank, are you actually considering what is more logical in universe, or simply what you want to happen?

Lunch time tbf


Nope sweet exclusive runic tatoos like the one the Belf from the TBC gamebox has had since 10+ years ago /drools


I mean I wasn’t for Paladins for a legitimate HE AR I felt the possibility to encroach on Sunwell themes was too high.

If they use HE lore to justify new VEs, then I support Paladins very much so.

I know some void elf fans wanted a Paladin regardless of these new revelations anyways, citing the idea of Void themed Paladin etc.

But we may also just get NE Paladins and no VE Paladins who knows.

But I support both VEs and NEs being given Paladin now.

I mean I do support more class/race combos across the board.

I just contest the common notion that High Elf Paladins were iconic representatives of them as a people, so I just have never bought into the “High Elves NEED to be paladins” idea.

Would be nice if they did, and I see a lot of potential with VE paladins as either the apex of the cyclical nature of the void and light struggle, or as a flavor of a “Shadow paladin” through cosmetic glyphs -Like, how Riftblades use a lot of paladin-esque abilities-

I, personally, don’t think it makes sense for only Belves to get the tattoos. Void Elves (even without High elf customization) should have such things too.

Heck my Void Elf is a former Farstrider


Your feeling was just that — a feeling. And unjustified based on the lore.

Void energy is literally the opposite of Holy Energy. Thematically, in universe, this does not make sense.

Hear me out.

Void Paladins.

Blizz could even add some dark glyphs to make it feel good.

Nah, void literally overtook them to their last molecule. The quivalent to those tatoos are the hair tentacles, man.

Makes me want to barf.

The identity of the Paladin has been diluted enough with the other equivalents (Sun Druids for example). At least those equivalents still, in some respects, still access the light even if through other means and if their primary practice is not that of an archetypal Paladin.

The Void Paladin? That’s about as far away as you get from Paladin
arguably really going Black Guard or even Anti-paladin.

Getting off the topic a bit, I’m the only one who thinks it would be nice if BE, VE/HE and Nightborne could be druids. I mean, at the end of the day the druids were once part of their culture (a long long time ago) and in the particular case of the Nightborne, and BE (#TeamLor’themarxThalyssra), during Legion they spent the expansion doing grow a tree and learning about the balance between nature and arcane (not to mention the NB Gardener on the raid, and the Herbalists BE on TBC).

I don’t think you have any lore basis for why they would not have tattoos available to them.

They should have voidy colors for them. Oh! Could apply that scintillating blue purple the tentacles have to it.

Oh wow you missed a conversation last night then. I agree with you on that. I would have preferred Druid and Shaman over Paladin.

I’m more supportive going forward as I think making VEs Paladin doesn’t encroach on any Sunwell themes.

And advocating for VE Paladins with HE lore for VEs would make a lot of people happy so that’s kind of where I’m at.

Cause again, void kinda invaded their bodies to their last atom as per the lore? Runic tatoos invoking arcane proficiency -and spells- seem like an unecessary overkill for people mostly using void for their spells nowadays


Also, even while similar, we still have to differentiate the models by a minimum. You guys can keep the paint used by Alleria for example, leave the runic tatoos for the more arcane inclined Belves and Nightborne.

Well we have disc priests so eh

And I guess shadow priests still exist

Oh I just realized they added the black hair on the VE male! Really hoping for white too -but blonde? part of me thinks Ion is gonna be all “Well I did say if you wanted to be a blonde elf you should go horde!” so he’ll remain “technically” correct.

Bah, no imagination! So many doors are now open to us. :stuck_out_tongue:

No, you are absolutely not the only one. I advocate for all of them to be druid enabled.

Guess my Void Elf Arcane mage is just a spoof.

You have no actual lore reason to suspect that they would have had their tattoo’s removed.

remember when Illidan was being consumed by Light and his fel tatts were being turned into light?

Why couldn’t that be the case for Void Elves?

They are not giving them high elves, but the high elves are becoming void elf, which would make them never have paladins.

the lore may move in that direction, uniting the alliance helfs with the void elfs

Say thanks to the Anti’s.
