No… more of one. Right now they look a little top heavy. Not as bad as the male Nelfs, but still irksome. I would prefer their shoulders and chests to not be quite as wide. The NPC Nightborne have a slightly slighter frame than the players do, though it’s pretty close.

Ahh, here. This thread illustrates it well. https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/fqmlaf/nightborne_edit_by_silverleaf2520/

Edit: So I guess what I want is less wide shoulders and chest really, rather than an increase in the waist.

Second Edit. And of course all the other things you mentioned. Faces more like the NPCs, mana hair, etc

Pretty much.

Should have read

Humans, Night Elves, Tauren and Blood Elves, get ready to update your look with hundreds of new character customization options!

fixed it. male belfs got half of what female belfs got. so they did get some, its not like their female counterparts. for example, female belfs got jewelry, male belfs did not, and they didnt anything else to replace the missing jewelry.

That should be good enough. It’s kinda a hard point to get across, really. Thankie though. :slight_smile:

Honestly, I wish Blizz would do what Wildstar did and give us a few body types to choose from. I know that the races have silhouettes that they want to adhere to, but you can do that while still giving people choices of skinny, muscular, etc.

This list is pretty good minus Void Elf Paladin and that makes zero sense on so many levels so I disagree with it but otherwise I like your list.

Have male Tauren gotten any faces at all that don’t have a nose ring yet?

i dunno. want me to add that?

If you don’t mind. I know a guy who made a female Tauren because he didn’t want a nose ring and hadn’t unlocked Highmountain yet.

I was actually for giving Worgen tails until I saw that. It looks horrid.

done. :grin:

Was looking at PTR last night again and I’m actually pretty upset about the lack of customization for Undead compared to the other races. I think the one thing players have asked for, other than covering bones is upright posture. I would love some more long hairstyles for female Undead too. The Elvira looking new one sits on the head weird.

I actually made a list about a month ago of every single customization option of all the races from live to the ptr. I know exactly how many more things each race got than another race. Was going to type it up and post it to forums but it feels like a lot of work. There is some pretty big disparities between the races and between alliance and horde.

I feel like the Blood Elves got very little customization because half of what they got was gifted to the void elves so there is no uniqueness to it now. I was hoping for a red eye option for dark ranger (which I see a lot of people want.) Maybe some more long hairstyles and something that keeps them unique and separate from the void elves.

Trolls are still stuck with 6 face options and all but 1 are old and angry looking (for female.) I like a lot of the changes for troll actually but there are a few things that could be added. The streak in the hair should be separate like in the Pandaren hair and able to change color. The female troll needs more hairstyles that are feminine like the new “Long” hairstyle. Girls like to play trolls too and maybe some of us don’t want to look like the mythical deformed cave dweller.

I think the most important thing that needs to be brought up to par between all the races is faces, hairstyles, hair color and skin tones. That would help create a lot more diversity between characters. Humans have 45 faces (female and 36 for male.) I know not all go with all skin tones (which is weird), but that’s a pretty big jump from all the other races. The next behind them in faces is Void Elf (really they have more than Blood elf) with 20. After that the most any other races have is 10. The hairstyles, skin and hair colors follow the same pattern, humans have a ton, everyone else has way less. I think every race should be on equal grounds with those core customization options.

I’m happy you guys are working on customization but I would like a bit more consistency in what you give each race. Right now it will be really fun to go to the barber for some races and not so much for others. I could get into the allied races but I know you guys didn’t plan on that until later. Please fix the Nightborne though. I’m hoping that you guys are finally addressing the awfulness that they are. The males need a completely new face, the ones that the NPC’s have. The female too and just give them some new hairstyles and colors.
