I can’t even begin to say how disappointed I am after taking about a week to level a Nightborne to get the Heritage armor set.
One little detail ruins the WHOLE set as a female Nightborne.
Why would anyone think that a metal freakin’ goatee on a female Nightborne was a good idea? It sticks out like Jay Leno’s giant butt chin and looks awful!
“Whats the big deal?” you say, “Just turn off the helm and it’ll be fine!”
That was my first thought, too, but for some completely inexplicable reason, this metalic Shaggy cosplay is TIED TO THE F#%$NG CHEST PIECE!
Nightborne in general are terrible, they’re basically just flat chested Night Elves and look nothing like their NPC counterparts. The first 4 allied races we got are honestly all pretty pathetic tbh.
Six faces: Three old ones, one constipated, and one normal looking one.
Six hair styles: All pretty awful.
Six hair colors: Some are pretty.
Six earring styles: Some decent, some look weird.
Four tattoo styles: They look nice, but they are very faded and can only been seen while wearing skimpy armour. Wish they looked like pulsing runes.
They really dropped the ball on them. I hope that the upcoming expansion pack expands on their customization greatly. I mean, they still have the Night Elf skeleton, and their same dance. So lame.
I actually really like the Nightborne Heritage Armour. Well, the female one, the male one is eeeh. I don’t mind the chin attachment, though I could give or take it. I love everything else about the armour however.
I absolutely agree about the customisations though. The faces look off, they’re too short, and they missing many features the NPCs do. For instance the hairstyle I use is common on the NPCs, but on them is moves around freely. On me it’s stuck to my back. Also, the mana effect in Nightborne hair. I used to think it was a limitation of character creation that caused us not to have it, but then Dark Irons came out with their fire hair. So… why can’t we have mana hair?
Actually, I agree with that too. I would have loved the top being separate from the skirt and to be able to mix and match with different items like you can with the armour the Blood Elves got (for example).
the metal chin piece is cool though. it’s not a goatee.
also, you’re playing a forsaken race. they don’t care anything about nightborne. look at your heritage armor, it’s bugged all to pieces, and has been since 8.2, and they’ve known about it since then, because i reported it. they won’t fix it.
they didn’t give them the proper models, they won’t fix their heritage armor, someone with power at blizzard despises this race, and i wish i knew why.
The worst part of it is that the goatee is a part of the robe, not the helmet lol. So you have to remove the most iconic piece of the set to not have to deal with it. It’d be less bad if it was a part of the helmet.
I think they should just have two robe/helmet options, one with and one without.
I absolutely love nightborne but they got shafted.
Every time I see one that looks good I make sure to tell them. There’s a lot of good looking female nightborne but the males… I saw one awesome warrior and that’s it
