Let Night Elf and Blood Elf guys use jewelry

[Battlemaster-stormrage]

jewelry needs to be usable on all male characters

same with makeup

hairstyles need to be interchangeable for both male and female. ridiculous that hairstyles are exclusive to a specific gender

[Skycaller-wyrmrest-accord]

Even if it’s not much. I think it was around 5 new hair colors was datamined for zandalari on the PTR.

Also, I’d love to take this time to point to this great post showcasing many concepts for more belf stuff.

Big Blood Elf Customization Thread

Been a long time since I posted this and its been quiet here for awhile so I’m just gonna throw this up again. Some of it needs updating given some things that have come to pass but I think most is still valid. Blood Elf Customization List Still a work in progress… Eyes, Hair and Faces A great deal of options remain unexplored in regards to hair, eyes and faces and should be added to give Blood Elves a greater amount of options. Eye colors especially could be expanded for not only several n…

Yes that is the thread I would utilize for new ideas for BEs (I know several races have threads like that but I would hope they all have one main thread)

I made this thread to specifically point out both NEs and BE guys are locked from options that already exist to the race, so it’s a weird place of not specifically asking for something new but rather opening existing options the race already has to benefit everyone that plays that race.

And the precedent imo helps everyone as if they decided to add something to a different race tomorrow the precedent shouldn’t be locked options for half the people that play the race.

@Lannislight-tichondrius

I think everyone should be brought up to their standards, in the mean time I am also requesting that the jewelry that is already available for NEs and BEs but restricted to not allow guys access to the options be opened up so we at least have a little something to do.

So much this.

It’s ridiculous.

@Ion-kiljaeden

IMO they need another comprehensive customization overhaul as they’ve fallen behind pretty significantly.

And so so much this.

Eyy it’s me! (Kyuu is my alt and often Horde main)

[Sledgehammer-wyrmrest-accord]

I see no reason why not.

I would get some milage out of those wee crowns.

[Zengin-mankrik]

ye end giv those options to void elfs 2 thnx

[Rosenivy-area-52 (Rosenivy)]

Its still stupid the jewelry is gender locked

Sorry Kul Tirans only girls can have necks sturdy enough for a necklace apparently

[Athorian-moon-guard]

For once Lannislight we agree one something . . . more customizations is seldom a bad idea.

I think on NEs the body tattoos guys get can’t be used on girls too

I feel like it’s a really bad precedent- in BEs case I think they just decided to not include the guys w jewelry options even though people on wowhead showed both models using the jewelry options at the time when they first picked up on the options etc

89 - WEIRD ELVES

Whaddaya mean, “WEIRD ELVES”?

Honestly, if KT males had jewelry options it would give off a IASIP/Sopranos/Sin City vibe.

[Fortuna-sentinels (Fortuna)]

@Lannislight-tichondrius

Its not more stuff though its the same stuff BE girls already have

I mean, from a design and technical perspective, they’d need to be adjusted to fit the male model. It’s not as simple as “just unlock it”.

It would be just as much work to port these items to the blood elf male model as, for instance, the orc male model.

“Hey Tony! Crazy business with that N’zoth fellow eh? On the day of my daughter’s wedding too.”

[Fortuna-sentinels (Fortuna)]

Fugeddaboutit.

[Lannislight-tichondrius]

But BEs both guys and girls were shown by wowhead to have been flagged for the jewelry

@Lannislight-tichondrius

There was also body jewelry that never made it live.

So BEs specifically the guys almost had jewelry and Blizzard just decided “lol no” and now male BEs don’t get the several pages of addition choices the female model gets in character creation.

As far as NEs go idk if they were shown to have jewelry on guys I don’t think so but I still think its an arbitrary decision to if the race is given options especially accessories to not have had both models in mind.

Heck I’m still mad only nelves and orcs get a burn scar option.

Rosenivy canonically has a burn scar on their face and I hate that I can’t show it. Closest I had was just the white eye option.

We’re fighting all the time. Let us have more battle damage. You can totally do that without gore. Like ripped ear tips. If Jurassic Park can sell oodles of “battle damage” dinosaur toys then its totally fine for WoW since its rated T

At least have this so people can pretend they got into a rough fight and are recovering for a bit. Throw the roleplayers something to chew on

Nightelves are more dream catchers and puka shells.

Yeah I definitely think scars are something universal that all races should just have

[Rhane-shadowsong]

It should literally be a weekly feature in the Tuesday reset that 1 race a week gets a few new customization options, so there’s something new every week. A new hairstyle or color, a new earring, etc. simple task that would make a lot of people happy.

[Sumwun-tichondrius]

I’m all for this! I’d love to see an Elf of any kind wearing some cold steel shackles or even better, wrapped in a nice, form fitting, Iron Maiden.

[Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord]

The idea of a form fitting iron maiden. Things weren’t even really used but that is an entertaining concept. Lol
