Just confirms that the race design is a massive failure

Honestly the only slots I think would cause trouble are boots, cloak, and helm.
Just disable those three and they’d probably be pretty decent. We already have races that have certain slots disabled (mecha gnomes) so this wouldn’t be anything new
IDK what they were thinking. Why create the foundations of a race without transmog in mind? It’s not a conceptual hurdle — if you can design armor into an oversized bovine, you certainly can for a humanoid dragon. Who even though that would end up being popular?
It’s because they get 4 body builds? I’d gladly have just 1 if it means transmog.
Even if they added the triple of the barbershop armors we have today, it’s still not enough to compete with everybody else (sans shapeshifter druids) getting new sets every season. Heck every month with the TP.
Regardless, I’m happy with Battle Visage because something to show transmog more often is better than nothing.
tbh they mostly made it work for the fem goats so I don’t think drac would be much harder. That said the fem draenei boots still do that thing where the textures sometime go halfway up their leg even though the boot stops at their ankle
They get plenty of transmog in their human forms 
We don’t exactly see dragonoids in game running around in full armor so I think it would be weirder if they had transmog honestly
Except Dracthyr is not a Draconid? Different races, different body types, being a dragon ‘cousin’ is the only relation they have.
I’m so confused, if you don’t like Dracs or Evokers, just don’t play them lmao
Glad you guys got what you want I guess but this is another pointless addition, I think.
I’ve personally always liked their appearance and not having to waste gold on transmogs I’m either never changing anyway or constantly changing because of gear swapping, which they just fixed.
The little fart cloud when you glide in your scale-elf form is downright stupid.
If anything, they should change Dracthyr to have any race as their visage. I don’t like the Scale Elf/Scale-Human visage we have now, even with all the fancy customizations.
Regardless how I feel about this change, glad more Evokers will join the fray. It’s a fun class, I love all sands of time stuff.

No. They still look weird
A good start, now how about a toggle to let mecha gnomes wear / transmog pants…
I mean, Void Elves get a discount and Mechagnomes also have inactive slots, I’m pretty sure the whole point is for people who don’t want to spend gold on cosmetics.
It’s not half-baked just because it isn’t the same, but I surely doubt you care.
This is a god awful suggestion, just play on Visage all the time.
I don’t think it’s half-baked, because it’s not — pretty clear Dracthyr have a lot of work into them given the sheer number of customization options. I just think it’s was made with a bad conceptual decision in.
See you in three years everyone.

Sounds great! Might give up my regular human and switch to Dracthyr then. I hate the dragon form, but the customization options for the human form look dope.
Then don’t use it. Don’t use it on your character.
Choice is always good in matters of character expression. It’s one of the few obejctive truths about character customization.
Wher did it say this was forced on you….

Going to laugh because Devastation is all dragon abilities. Pres and aug could probably get by but living flame and azure strike are the only ones they can really cheat around for Dev.

I’ll have to agree to disagree. I’m fine not have transmog/armor clutter my dragon and I like not having to open or go to the transmog guy so often.
I don’t need every single character to play dress up.
It’s not conceptually bad, it’s just poorly received. This change is made to compromise/middle ground their concept with the people’s desires.
Sweeet!! Will have to see what abilities will require the dragon form for Aug but I def want to try it out now.
Always was.
