POTENTIAL SPOILERS: 4 new Allied Race IDs datamined

Reginageorge-moon-guard · April 12, 2020, 2:11pm

they could also just be making space for the future. new races we see in 10.0 +

Sâpphire-dalaran · April 12, 2020, 2:11pm

yep and that would be horde because having both the worgen dog and the saberon cat on the same faction, would be kinda wrong.

I doubt there’ll be allied races in the prepatch. I imagine if there’s 4 new allied races it’ll be the 4 covenants. Kyrians, Night Fae, Necrolords and Venthyr.

Pichorde-zuljin · April 12, 2020, 2:12pm

But I want murlocs and ogres.

Rreifren-wyrmrest-accord · April 12, 2020, 2:13pm

this could be the case but the way it is set up seems a bit off for that.

The race IDs are for skeleton, tuskarr, vrykul, and forest trolls however the male and female models are for the 4 covenants.

Kalzhun-thrall · April 12, 2020, 2:13pm

Most definitely going to be Kyrian, Venthyr, Night Fae, and Necrolords.

And guys, don’t get your hopes up for faction-bound races. These guys are most likely to be Neutral.

Kalzhun-thrall · April 12, 2020, 2:14pm

Kyrian use the female Vrykul skeleton.

Rreifren-wyrmrest-accord · April 12, 2020, 2:14pm

I know. I am just saying the race ID tags are likely placeholder and the real allied races are what is shown in the male and female models.

also the kyrians are linked to the skeleton ID tag.

Night fae are linked to the vrykul ID tag

Seeing that I believe the ID tag largely isn’t indicative of anything.

Horde: San’layn as they would fit thematically especially if they give Kael’thas a redemption story. He could have an in with the San’layn in some degree. He’s also tied to the Venthyr to some degree.

Alliance: Vykrul with their connection to the Gods like Odyn and Esyir. It makes them a valuable ally to the alliance, and they literally spawned the humans. Also they seem to almost aspire to be like the Kyrian.

Honorable mentions: Tuskarr, Tortollans, Jinyu, Saberon.

Playable Tuskarr…it’s a dream come true, I’d cry with tears of joy if this happens.

Luuni-area-52 · April 12, 2020, 2:17pm

What do you mean he can have an in with the San’layn?

The San’layn are literally the cheerleaders of Kael’thas. The leader of the San’layn in ICC, the blood queen, was a devout Kael’thas follower lol.

Ashamara-silver-hand · April 12, 2020, 2:17pm

I’ve been pushing for drakonids since I saw them. D&D brought out Dragonborn, Pathfinder is now including Lizardmen, come on Blizz catch up and give us scaled playables.

Telar-stormreaver · April 12, 2020, 2:17pm

I don’t know if you’re being sarcastic? Is that true? I don’t know much about Blood Queen.

Luuni-area-52 · April 12, 2020, 2:18pm

“Former countess, now Blood Queen of all San’layn, Lana’thel was one of the blood elves who followed Kael’thas’ lead into Northrend,” -wowpedia

She’s literally a groupie.

Telar-stormreaver · April 12, 2020, 2:18pm

I’d love to see Sethrak and Saurok become playable.

Pepino-caelestrasz · April 12, 2020, 2:19pm

I’ve never been more excited, TUSKARR!!!

Telar-stormreaver · April 12, 2020, 2:19pm

Okay, wow. So yeah totally an in with the San’layn if Kael’thas gets a redemption story and comes back to Azeroth.

Reginageorge-moon-guard · April 12, 2020, 2:19pm

we need a reptile race

Ashamara-silver-hand · April 12, 2020, 2:19pm

I’d be okay with those as well.

Pichorde-zuljin · April 12, 2020, 2:20pm

My like is for the Vulpera shaman named Tidalwave. I still want tortollan, ogres, and gnolls for my allied races. Tortollan are on the Zandalari Council which joined horde, so horde should get Tortollan. And maybe the Ogres of Ogri-la can help us solve something in shadowlands and join horde. Alliance can have murloc and quillboar since they all have annoyingness in common, then dragonkin just so they can have at least one good race.
