I’m really hoping that the upcoming Blizzconline will be chock full of 9.1 details, and that it will include info about new customisations for allied races. What’s on y’all’s wishlist?
Me, I want tattoos of course. I would love to see kul tirans get some piratey tatts like anchors and krakens.
I’d love to see way more interesting cybernetic options for mechagnomes. Maybe even individual limb customisations. I know plenty of people would like them to have normal legs.
I’d love for mag’har to get a skin colour like Rexxar. We’re never going to get actual mok’nathal, but frankly I’d be more than happy with his skin colour. I also hope that they just share all the hair and beard styles between mags and regular orcs, because the regular orc styles are all terrible.
Ooh, and I’d love so many things for nightborne. More skin colours, more hairstyles and colours, glowing mana hair, more variety and more brightness options for their tattoos, better faces. They just need a lot.
Void elves, sure more normal elf options like hair colours I guess. More styles without tentacles too. But I would also love some more messed up, void corrupted customisations too. Twisted faces, discoloured limbs, that kind of thing.

Anything for Nightborne. They got way more custom models, but because of that they didn’t get as many options as the other 3 original allied races.
I want ombre and pink hair for void elves, alongside the basic black/white that are already in the files, tendie colour selection, corruption effects, starry skin effects, void tattoos, ability to potentially look like we’re /in/ void form all the time? Also potentially extra and multiple tendie options for all hair cuts.
Jewlery that actually looks void inspired. The scrap they gave us on pre-patch looks untextured and awful.
Also, can they separate our wings from the chest piece already? Would just be a nice time to do that.
Also Also, blonde hair, because people need to grow up and stop gate keeping something as asinine as a hair colour.
They could try to fix mechagnomes a bit by actually letting us look fully mechanical without the heritage armor. We asked for mechagnomes - not junker diaper babies.
I just want deep black skin for Lightforged. They desperately need customization that make them actually look unique. Regular Draenei are 500% more interesting.

Nightborne need some options as well as kul tiran.

Oh, totally. You’ve got me onto a pet peeve actually. What you said, or give us a version of the chest piece without the freaking collar. I hate it so much, and it makes no damn sense. It clips with almost all their hairstyles. Which means you have to choose between either their really cool, iconic hair feature, or their really cool, iconic armor feature. It’s so dumb!

or at least one extra one that doesn’t like my grandpa

I would love to see the highmountain tauren have more attention to the antlers to stand out against their tauren cousins. Perhaps some druidic influence that we see from the moose mounts?

Each covenant seems to easily be converted into an allied race.

Yeah don’t worry the game is a complete mess and people are unsubbing it’s all about what you look like now lmfao. Good one.
You know, except for the whole “dead and unable to enter the world of the living” thing.

AFAIK the only ones who can enter our world (kyrian bearers) have mentioned off handedly how they would like to visit our world one day. I have heard no other npc have a line like this, so I assume visiting means spiriting away souls from Azeroth to the shadowlands
Kyrian can not enter our world.
They can enter that greyscale subspace we go to when we die.
They may count that as visiting. I do. That’s what I meant as visiting. Like that one quest where the blue dragon was in love with a spirit healer and you had to enter that greyscale to communicate with her.
Wouldn’t that give us metal bodies with underwear?
Regardless they aren’t able to enter Azeroth in any meaningful way, so they’re not going to be playable.
I’m not saying they are, I’m explicitly saying they won’t be and providing evidence for that. The only ones who have expressed interest in visiting Azeroth are kyrian bearers who can only see Azeroth through that greyscale when they are picking up souls. You’re misinterpreting everything I’m writing. I’ve been agreeing with you from the start dude
When is blizzcon? Would like to see if they reveal anything there. Would have thought there would be blue posts by now for their generic feed back or questions. (They never seems to pick from that list anyway… not sure Ion is interested in customer feedback or input.)
But yes, Nightborne and LFD need major love for customizations… Not much experience with nightborne but I do know LFD has so few hair styles it’s criminal. Nightborne I can just see from GD that they are sorely lacking.

You can have whatever as long as Worgen get more than just a hand full of fur and eye colors. Worgen being taxed for customization was one of the more stupid aspects of the expansion so far as we can’t use human form most of the time and we have 0 things unique to being Gilnean.

For humans, blood elves, etc. I wish for the necromancers appearance. The gloomy eye shadow we could customize for RP purposes.
