So I thought of a fun idea for Saurok customization and a racial feature: Tail Equipment! Basically, the idea of attaching weapons or items to a Saurokās tail, either for visuals or possibly a small buff.
To illustrate this idea, I have a couple of pictures of Lizalfos from the Legend of Zelda series:
Youāll likely notice the weapons attached to their tails. This is the idea Iām referring to.
At the very least, I could see this being put on Saurok NPCās. Saurok guards in particular would likely have them, and whoever the leader of the playable Saurok faction would also have some sort of weapon on their tail when theyāre decked out in full battle attire. It makes Saurok seem even more fearsome in battle and just adds some character to them, in my opinion.
As for player Saurok, this idea could be just as a visual look to complement transmogs or could even apply a small buff. For example, a spiked ball tail attachment could have a chance to stun enemies briefly while an axe attachment could slow mob movement speed. For casters, they could have orbs or totems that offer buffs like spell haste. Of course, such options should be allowed to be invisible if players want their Saurok to have nothing on their tails.
The idea of buffs does come from the Zandalari, where they can pick a loa to worship to gain a small buff of some sort. Nothing too overpowered, but something that gives them more character and flavor as a player race.
This is just a fun idea I wanted to share. I figure if Saurok utilized all of their body in combat, they would likely innovate how to make their tails even stronger as a weapon.
More Saurok research to continue in the future!
