New Customization Options for Blood Elves and Void Elves

You need a mog that gives the illusion of your head floating in a crystal ball!

Cool additions,

I would like Blizzard to add the Skinny Kultiran human model walking around Boralus to Kultiran character customization, maybe a toggle option would be cool.

I love that silly little head!

Avarie-farstriders · June 19, 2020, 12:44am

It kills me when he first shows up with it, he sounds SO proud!

Lancelot-lightnings-blade · June 19, 2020, 12:44am

Oh, the head in the crystal ball?
I’m trying something new!

Hey guys, after reading some of the last 3k or so replies that I missed, I noticed that most of the talk was about what Void Elves and Blood Elves should get or not, which lead to a toxic discussion.

So, instead of telling others what they can or cannot ask for Void Elves/Blood Elves, why we won’t focus in what we want to see for Void Elves and Blood Elves personally and let Blizzard decides what they think fits or not?

Let’s try this? I mean since both sides still want something for their beloved race, it’s a waste to fight each other continuously here, instead of using this precious time, space, and energy for useful feedback.

That’s how we know you didnt read the last 3k replies.

Archmage-azralon · June 19, 2020, 2:21am

The last few were good, but around 6-9k was rough.

Is this more of the toxic “If your tastes differ from ours and you advocate for features that you feel are better for the game, but that would require limiting how much of our requests get implemented, you’re being bad.” nonsense?

Archmage-azralon · June 19, 2020, 2:36am

Ok, guys listen, I’m not getting into this. I’m going to follow my own advice.

But hugs to everyone though!

It’s a simple request to “Ask for customization options we want for X race instead of arguing about who should or shouldn’t get what”

It doesn’t have to be any more complicated than that unless you choose to make it so.

Tarrok-thorium-brotherhood · June 19, 2020, 2:41am

Some people just happen to have a bad habit of framing the requests of the people who don’t want the same thing as they do as being gatekeeping or similar negative terms.

Nicodemùs-argent-dawn · June 19, 2020, 2:44am

And some people have a difficult time knowing the difference between

asking for X option for Y race

and

asking that Y race not get X option

But I’m not going to speak on this further. I’m going to follow Archmage’s example and move on.

I’ll leave you with something to chew on though… I found common ground with Broflake on features we’d both like to see added to Blood Elves. Why not join in the discussion about things you want to see added to whatever race catches your fancy?

Tarrok-thorium-brotherhood · June 19, 2020, 2:51am

Because the things I want to see are the void themes expanded on and strengthened in the void elves, as that’s more interesting to me. And I prefer more unique races that bring their own things into the game’s story and less copy pastes that go back against story themes I found to be more interesting.

I get that you don’t share that taste, and I don’t think that even though you getting your requests means that my requests get denied, that the reason you are making the request is to attack others, but because you have different tastes than I do. I’d just like the same courtesy that my tastes are just a taste in game style and coming from the same type of place as your request, just me letting it be known to blizzard the things I enjoy in the game and don’t want to see thrown away completely in favor of another set of tastes.

Nicodemùs-argent-dawn · June 19, 2020, 2:57am

I think you’re confused about me…

I like the void themes! I want more void themed options for void elves in addition to more neutral options that can work for a High Elf aesthetic, or just plain look good mixed with the void aesthetic.

So lets talk about what void themed options you’d like to see added to Void Elves!

For me, I’d like to see an option to look like I am in Entropic Embrace form all the time. I’d also like to see an option to add tentacles to non-tentacled hair (as well as remove tentacles from tentacled hair). I’d also like to see coal black and bone white skin tone options.

Drede-cairne · June 19, 2020, 2:58am

I say charcoal black and ivory white!

Nicodemùs-argent-dawn · June 19, 2020, 2:58am

I’ll take it!

Avarie-farstriders · June 19, 2020, 3:02am

A nice light red hair just screams void elf. Yep. Definitely.

Archmage-azralon · June 19, 2020, 3:29am

Something I think that can give a distinct look to Void Elves would be two shades of color intersecting in their hair, like starting at Blue and fading into Black/Purple, or White into Blue/Purple/Red, Gray into Black/Purple, etc.

I can’t provide images but I think you get it.

Avarie-farstriders · June 19, 2020, 3:30am

I am boring and want plain red hair, but that would be a cool option as well!
