New Customization Options for Blood Elves and Void Elves

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

He is.

He knows Blood Elves want them and refuses to put them on his list that he tries to speak for everyone with despite being told otherwise.

I’ve only seen ethnically darker skins myself so far. Felbloods are technicolored with blatant red, orange, violet and even blue skin colors and horns, similar to demon hunters.

And as far as energy wings go I’d say more reminiscent of the Void Elf/Dark Naaru theme but gold and shiny like an actual naaru. I’d do a similar design depicting fel. Orange leading off into purple like A’Lars wings would be a great depiction for the traditional fiery/arcane motif which has always been a thalassian hallmark.

His speaking for everyone while leaving things off his list is disingenuous.

I kind of dislike it when people speak on my behalf without my permission.

@Selesnya-wyrmrest-accord

gold and shiny like an actual naaru.

that would look cool.

[Rialius-wyrmrest-accord (Rialius)]

I like soft fluffy feathery wings.

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

Just keep asking for what you want.

Wait, some random guy who mainly is known for supporting high elves wants to act like they speak for blood elf players? Sorry, but I know how some high elf people feel about blood elves, he should stop doing that.

[Hypêrspace-dalaran (Hypêrspace)]

thatd be the felblood wings unless we can get something inheritable from kyrians. now their wings are amazing

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

Maybe because you take it upon yourself to crusade against anything not dark for blood elves,

I haven’t.

Though I do openly dislike “Lightforged” races like Lightforged Undead/Humans. Dull concepts.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

and have shown no interest in blood elf requests until this point.

I’ve literally been compiling suggestions and adding suggestions of my own.

It’s just you seem to have a conniption whenever I suggest something that you don’t personally like.

You even acted like Dark Ranger/San’layn/ OPTIONS would be

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

corrupting the Blood elves with undead themes.

At least until Lenn actually convinced you that people actually wanted them.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

You trolled blood elf players who wanted gold eyes relentlessly with quotes like “You’re tainted! Deal with it!”

And I never said that at all. Rediculas.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

and now suddenly want us to believe you’re pushing for these tainted themes out of the goodness of your heart?

Damn right I am.

Been part of the San’layn thread(s) for going on 3 years and been suggestion Dark Ranger type stuff for… around a decade.

The face that you keep calling the themes “tainted” says a lot.

You’re also discounting the fact that there ares separate San’layn/Dark Ranger/Scars For Blood Elves threads. And a Blood Elf request thread that list most of those things as well.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

Why does it seem like you only have an open mind for Blood elf customization when it revolves around dark themes?

See above. Also I like them so I tend to notice them more.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

Yet cringe at light theme requests?

I find the concept of little angel wings as a customization option cringy. Not all light options. I just don’t like “Lightforged” as a concept. So sue me.

I’ve even been suggestion Light Runes as part of a magic rune option this entire time. Just including them with Fel/Arcane/Death options.

Why do you think I keep linking the TBC box art?

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

Or ranger tats?

Because there’s no such thing… Alleria has tattoos but that has nothing to do with rangers themselves.

Void Elves have a small chance of getting them to mirror Alleria but I’m not holding my breath. I’ve actually removed it a few times but only keep it on

It would also be really weird to take a key feature of an enemy faction leader as a racial feature.

They also clash with the runes concept which would work for Arcan/Fel/Light/Death themes. And Blood Elves have a lot of depections with runes.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

You can’t even bring it upon yourself to add braids to your blood elf request list

I have. I just haven’t posted it.

It’s a toss up between that or having fade hair colors on hair as the Blood Elf version of Vines for Night Elves.

Still a wip.

It’s not like braids is a general concept that can be applied to all easily. Like… what would it do with a bald option?

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

What? Tragedy is not necessary to make something fun, and interesting.

It’s one of the most interesting things about Blood Elves.

Otherwise they would just be a generic fantasy elf. Dull.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

You conveniently forgot redemption in that list too.

Triumph…

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

I don’t mind adding different themes, but don’t complain about pretty themes as if people are unsatisfied with them in comparison to goth themes, which is pretty absurd.

I’m complaining because that it’s all they are doing. Just conventionally pretty stuff.

They haven’t even added scars or any dark jewelry colors yet.

Or added the TBC Box Art Runes when they just let Night Elves look exactly like the box art.

I loved the jewelry at first but now it’s lost its shine in my eyes and I’m compared to other stuff so I’m asking for more.

And yes. That includes GOTH options.

@Snowsong-fizzcrank

Except that’s exactly what you did.

Umm…

@Drede-cairne

I think they can give options for both depending on how you want to set it up.

My only problem is that all just added jewelry and fancy hair with nothing interesting. AKA Glitter.

The guy I was talking to was saying that they need to do one or the other.

[Rialius-wyrmrest-accord (Rialius)]

@Drede-cairne

Because there’s no such thing… Alleria has tattoos but that has nothing to do with rangers themselves.

This is an absurd take.

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

And goes against his statement of:

@Drede-cairne

I’ve literally been compiling suggestions and adding suggestions of my own.

If he was really doing this, he’d have them added instead of trying to deny a popular request as if he has some authority over what can be requested and what can’t be requested.

[Rialius-wyrmrest-accord (Rialius)]

Lore policing suggestions with headcanon is a special shade of skeevy.

[Drede-cairne (Drede)]

@Rialius-wyrmrest-accord

This is an absurd take.

It’s based off of WC2 stuff but that never carried over to WC3 or WoW.

Like Celtic Longhouse themed Lumber Mills or High Elf druids making the runestones.

I just don’t see a feature exclusive to Alleria being given to an opposite faction race.

[Rialius-wyrmrest-accord (Rialius)]

Where has blizzard explicitly said that the tattoos are retconned? Because Alleria having them indicates they aren’t retconned.

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

@Drede-cairne

I just don’t see a feature exclusive to

Just like a feature exclusive to Blood Elves being given to Void Elves?

Get out of here with that restrictive nonsense, Drede.

[Skérge-moon-guard]

@Drede-cairne

It’s based off of WC2 stuff but that never carried over to WC3 or WoW.

You can claim that all you want, but it’s still a request and should be added. Unless of course you’re biased. Because it hasn’t been retconned and can be added. The only thing that could be here is you being bias’d

[Selesnya-wyrmrest-accord (Selesnya)]

Well Drede obviously doesn’t care for certain ideas and on the same note is certainly not going to keep anyone from said requests/ideas for disagreeing.

I have my disagreements with him on occasion and move on, because A. It’s his prerogative to voice said opinion, and B. He’s certainly not going to hurt anyone’s requests if he’s the only person who doesn’t like it. He may come across as brusque in his opinion at times, but he’s hardly the only person guilty of this.

And yes, I can attest that he’s been just as avid in supporting San’layn as he has High Elves.

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

@Selesnya-wyrmrest-accord

Well Drede obviously doesn’t care for certain ideas and on the same note is certainly not going to keep anyone from said requests/ideas for disagreeing.

Except when he makes the claim that’s compiling suggestions but then leaving out a popular request because of his opinion on the requests negates that statement.

He’s free to not like it but he can’t deny it if he was truly for compiling suggestions.

[Skérge-moon-guard]

@Renotarshil-malganis

This. This is my issue, he’s clearly bias’d and cannot compile said list. Which I won’t ever fault someone for being biased it happens all the time. But don’t try to say you’re compiling a list for anyone.

[Hypêrspace-dalaran (Hypêrspace)]

wait, i finally realized what you meant by a’lar’s coloration. its like the fist weapons - the talon / claw of the phoenix
https://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screenshots/normal/219298-talon-of-the-phoenix.jpg

so void elf style wings but with talon of the phoenix like coloring?
