I think the old god stuff will be breadcrumbs for the next expansion and faction war will last till the end of BFA, when we kill Sylvanas in a Lich Queen raid.

I stand by my theory that I have had. either 8.2 or 8.3 sylvanas kills saurfang and crushes his small rebellion. 8.4 is 2 faction exclusive raids. Horde have the sacking of stormwind while alliance have the conquest of silvermoon.

Even if they didnât have development for 3 expansions itâs not going to change anything.
They are still strong members of the Alliance as still part of its identity.
Thatâs not going to change anytime soon.
That said. They are consistently the most developed and requested non player race and thatâs not changing anytime soon either.

Ironically i forgot the Druids of the Flame existed when i conceived the concept, actually had the Burning of the Tree and Dark Iron Dwarves in mind when i did it, least there story makes more then Void Elves since it would use an actual event that happens instead of a side event involving renegade Blood Elves.
Then later i remembered Druids of the Flame and figured can throw there skin colours onto them but overall the idea of a Ash Elf is ash coloured so grey, decayed white that sort of deal then they have a broken skin option that looks like a tree when the barks breaking but has red burning lines inside like a tree that was recently on fire.
I agree with you 10000% High Elves are interesting, they make expansions better cause theirs so much lore and story driving them, while they may not come this expansion, Iâm more interested to see the direction WoW heads in the next expansion, literally Blizzcon this year is a make or break for me and WoW, I donât think I can support a company making so many bad decisions anymoreâŚ
Like Iâm part of the problem aswell I stay subbed in hoping next patch or expansion is betterâŚ

It seems like for now those types of troops have been traded for Voidspeakers across the different incursions. Itâs not that noticeably bad to me since they still do what they do best in the areas theyâre presented in but hopefully Blizzard will branch out more with what Void Elves are capable of doing.
Agreed. Almost everything High Elves can do, Void Elves can as well.
Elven magisters? Void Elves have them.
Elven Rangers? Void Elves have them.
Elven spellbreakers? Void Elves have them.
Elven healers? Void Elves have them.
High Elves are just redundant at this point. Time to retire them and let the Void Elves shine.

By that logic, nightborne are redundant. They have not a single class that blood elves didnât already have.
Also, void elves themselves are redundant. All their classes are available to humans.
Void elves and high elves classes would be pretty much the same, except that high elves can be paladins and void elves canât. And void elves have no lore behind any of their classes, nor years of stories being told in-game and outside it. So, between them and high elves, the renâdorei are the redundant ones.

The opposite is true⌠we keep getting fielded the question, âWhy now after 13 years?â
But the Allied Race system is perfect to add Quelâdorei, and while Lightforged Draenei and Dark Iron Dwarves were given to the Alliance in good faith the developers have otherwise largely ignored requests for Quelâdorei.
Or, as argued, âGiven a compromise.â but itâs not like the players were involved in that decision. Not to mention how hypocritical it is.
and Ionâs inflammatory comments.
There is more demand for Quelâdorei now than ever.

Theyâre not redundant. Also⌠the Void Elves donât have them.
Elven Healers? The Void Elves definitely donât have holy priests outside of player characters.
Elven Spellbreakers? Thatâs a Blood Elf thing. I feel like the Spellbreakers and Dragonhawk riders ought to stay a Blood Elf thing.
Elven Rangers - Void Elves have shadow variants of these.
Quelâdorei are not redundant. Theyâre different. The Void Elves are a different group.
Give us the Silver Covenant.

By that logic weâre fine with humans and orcs.

Weâre only barely on the first warbringer. In summer we will be on the second. We still have the third to fight.
I doubt that is how it will go. I truly believe blizzard isnt going to make siege of orgrimmar 2.0 or something where we team up to kill sylvanas.
No I believe sylvanas is going to remain in power and kill saurfang and his rebellion.
next expansion is BFA part 2 and thrall returns to take back his horde.
I dunno. While I donât believe Sylvanas will die, I have a feeling sheâs not going to be warchief by the end of the xpac. In fact I think the whole musical warchiefs game is quite stale and can see Blizzard transitioning the Horde Leadership over to a War Council. I could be wrong though.
I see Sylvanas as a great character but I just donât see her as a good warchief. She has agendas all her own and the mantle of Warchief puts saddles her with too many extraneous responsibilities and shines too much of a spotlight on her activities for her to really focus on them. Being warchief actually takes away from her character in my eyes.
I think we will fight her and she will be removed from the throne, either willing or unwilling, but it wonât be siege 2.0. If they draw out the war too long, player fatigue will set in.
Come on Blizzard, make the High Elves playable for the Alliance. We need more players in our faction.

Void Elven Magisters, like Umbric, still seem somewhat dependent on Arcane Magisters, which is interesting. Umbric canât open and mask a portal on his own in the War Campaign. He requires Jainaâs support.
Void Elven Rangers, we donât have much to go on. I imagine theyâre pretty similar. Havenât seen them unable to do something normal Rangers canât.
There are no Void Elf or High Elf Spellbreakers. Thatâs a Blood Elf thing.
We havenât seen any Void Elven Healers, either. The Holy/Disc specs do not seem to be canon for them.
Know what High Elves have that Void Elves donât? Paladins. A stronger connection to nature that could make it plausible for us to see High Elven Druids and Shamans if development went in that direction. These are things the Void Elves will never have.

Iâd expect High Elf Hunters to be better than the Void ones, seeing as how High Elves have been living in the woods forever now while the Void Elves live in a space rock.

Yeah. Youâd think that. But just wait until your party gets stuck on a space rock.
Sure in the forest maybe you were hungry and your Void Elf Hunter brought you some tree bark or a rock and your party went hungry that night.
But in the cold, dark vastness of space your Void Elf Hunter is going to bring you all the void giant space hamster meat you could eat.
Space Rock Specialists*.
*Void Elf hunters ingredient gathering skills may leave something to be desired in all other environments. Void space meat may have side effects, including constipation, dizziness, increased sweating, lightheadedness, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, weakness, serious skin reactions, cardiovascular events, night terrors, insomnia, nervous system disorders, eye disorders, you may get out of bed while not being fully awake and do an activity that you do not know you are doing, the next morning, you may not remember that you did anything during the night. Serious neuropsychiatric events have been reported in patients eating void meat, adventurers eating void meat have reported falling asleep while engaging in activities of daily living, such as driving mounts, which sometimes results in fatal accidents, patients may experience hypersexuality or the new-onset of compulsive gambling.
