I hope those are the only T’Partstos you touch!!

You leave the boy alone, he’s too innocent for dirty Scarlet hands.

While I’m all for objectifying draenei men just to be a contrarian, that is my giant son and he is a pure baby child who should be treated with respect.

It is too late! I’ve disenchanted his chest.

T’paartos’ chest sinks in like some sort of Blender nightmare

T’paartos also collapses due to his Heart being disenchanted as well as his chest.

NOOOOOOOO

I knew Scarlets were villains but this is ACTUALLY too far.

And they wonder why we keep seeing them as pathetic villains, worthy only of quest-kills and the occasional dungeon filler…

Scarlets continue to prove that they are the worst!!!

Picking on sweet underutilized draenei!

They’re like my senior cat. No matter what he’s doing, if I go in the bathroom, he runs in to lick the plastic bag in there. The plastic bag does not need licking. I don’t even want the plastic bag licked. It serves no purpose to lick the plastic bag, yet he still does it with serious devotion to the task.

The plastic bag in this metaphor is being “the worst”.

I know I only had my NE elf druid for a day or so, but I will admit they’re growing on me. It’s nice to have a character that I can put cute mogs (In my opinion anyway) together on and the shoulder pads actually look nice.

Still gonna miss my worgen, but we’ll see how I feel in a couple weeks.

Just looked at the aboveground part of Tertium in Warhammer 40K Darktide… It’s as bad as an Underhive unlike the Underground Cities…

This is a major reason to like Elves… we are great for making mogs with…

Time… helps.

I’ve been tempted to either level a toon or faction-change one of my pre-existing toons lately to a Tauren for the little hair daisies. I’ve been playing a Tauren Druid in SoD and I so badly wish they could have a little daisy. I’m obsessed, I love Tauren!

Elves definitely get it good when it comes to transmog, Night Elves are THE Druid so almost everything Druid is going to look bombastic on them by default. Works that way with Human Paladins or Orc Shamans too. Blood/Void Elves also look SO great in cloth transmog, they make excellent casters.

Draenei are decent but I find belts clip quite a bit, especially with robes or anything hanging down in the design.

As a self-proclaimed transmog expert I actually love Dwarves the most for transmog. Everything fits really nicely on them with minimal clipping or general graphical jankiness. Plus, they’re cute and small and fit on almost every mount. Runner-up would be Vulpera because the lack of hair makes a lot helms look so adorable on them and a lot of transmog looks good on them that doesn’t look good on anyone else. (These opinions are limited to only female toons though, I don’t play stinky boy toons.)

You could have ended it right there. I respect that you didn’t, but let’s be honest here. Blood/Weirdo elves look good in all armor types. Transmog was made for us.

Night elves come very close too.

Nightborne will look like ick weirdos no matter where their transmog game is at.

I mean, yes. Except plate and maybe mail (I’M SORRY) because I feel like it looks too… SMALL. If I’m gonna be playing a plate class, I want to be hunky chunky, beefy power girly with big juicy armor.

A lot of the modern plate sets have a ton of bits and bobs and on a teeny cute little elf lady it can look a big damn mess. I like the sleek smoothness of VE/BE in either cloth or leather. Slinky and streamlined!

I dunno where they went so wrong with Nightborne, tbh. I was so incredibly excited to play one when they were released and it was like ‘who the hell is this purple weirdo?’ when I got to the character creation. They look ‘okay’ in cloth, but I don’t know why you’d want one over a Blood Elf unless you’re really invested in their lore and fantasy.

Now you are just asking for a blood fued.

While mail armor is the most awkward and ugly armor type of all, as an expert at finding ways to make it work because Blizzard refuses? We are the pinnacle of mail armor mogging. Sets that other races simply cannot pull off look less ugly on our models.

And plate!! Do not get me started on how we are the excellence of plate looks. Y’all gotta worry about the five or six pixels used to make an older set? Not us, they work fine. All then new doodads armor can’t stop from having sticking all about? They look 50% more Doo on female wearers, and 75% more Dad on male ones.

You are simply jealous that blood/weirdo elves can wear boots.

I do.

One dev looked at another dev and said “what if we gave the Horde some off-brand night elves nobody ever wanted anyway?”

When you start off with this terrible decision-making, everything that follows must also be terrible. This inevitably carries over into customization.

My Blood Elf Paladin often gets told :

“You can’t Tank, but damn you look good.”

And you know I see that as a compliment, while I gingerly throw my shield.

I want this so badly to be true for me, but I’ve tried so HARD to like Thalassian elves in plate/mail and it just isn’t clicking. To each their own, I suppose!

SORRY, WHAT WAS THAT, ALYNSA? I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THE SATISFYING CLIP-CLOP OF MY PERFECT HOOVES.

I mean, any self respecting Blood Elf would take style over tank skill any day of the week! I will say, a lot of Paladin sets are pratically MADE for Blood Elves, but I can’t get over some of the goofy sized boots. (Night Elves and Humans have this problem with some older sets too, why does Blizzard love clown shoes and wrassling belts?)

I said you’re entire race is a lie, males are the only real drainos and females are just girl-satyrs they found along the way, and that is why female broken don’t exist because female drainos don’t exist!!!
