Unoffical Playable Sethrak Discussion Thread

I would want to kill these.

That would be adorable.

Congratulations!!!

I need to work on mineā€¦ But Iā€™m very much not an arena sortā€¦

Weā€™ll see Sethrak eventually. Iā€™m sure of it.

Blizzard knows people want them and they know itā€™s a good race. Just gonna take time.

Sethrak for the players!

I had to force myself to play arenas cause rated battlegrounds is such aā€¦ toxic cesspool.

But I did find some nice people to do 2v2 with.

The awful thing is itā€™s rng. I feel lucky getting it after 24 wins.

And I agree. I think when we get back to Azeroth, weā€™ll see more of the Sethrak in future content.

Emeni is still a nice nod though.

They didnā€™t have to add a Sethrak at all yet here we are.

As I said, I donā€™t expect it but it would have been nice to have her story concluded as to why and her/the Sethrak history when she was alive.

It would make my return to Azeroth much happier. :heart: :snake: :heart:

This waiting and uncertainty is tiring for players.
I would be happy if Blizzard came and said they have plans but donā€™t date for something like that.

Sethraks would be an instant hit and good news regarding the game.
God knows how Blizard needs to publicize something that will have a positive effect on the gameā€™s image.

I cannot stress how much I agree with this.

Communication is the most powerful tool blizzard has at its disposal and they fail to use it.

We donā€™t need dates or times. We need to know whatā€™s next. What to look forward to. We need to know if they hear us at all.

Right now we get silence.

A developer closing the door on us, heads down, never acknowledging our words.

Itā€™s the second worst path to take, behind inaction on Activision Blizzards legal and worker problems, and they trudge ahead heedless to it.

Yeah I agree itā€™s frustrating we donā€™t get feedback.

Even a ā€œNo, we donā€™t have plans for that right nowā€ is better than no response at all.

And not just for this. A lot of feedback.

And what with the stuff going on at the company, what is going on? By no means do I support what has been accused. But is WoW okay? Are the Devs okay?

Do we even have a tentative release date for 9.2?

(I am however still hopeful because I am a stubborn woman, lol.)

I hope the player council remembers to quote threads about racial and new race customizations.

Iā€™m not sure how many community council members were picked but odds are there is atleast one of them that supports continued customization and new playable/allied races.

Overall new AR, customization and playable races are a selling point for mmorpgs and a lot of people look forward to that sort of content.

As always, keep voicing changes you want to see.

Playable Sethrak please! :snake: :pray:

I hope so.

My concerns are that even if there is one or two who do care about it that theyā€™re not invested enough to bring it up.

So far I donā€™t know of any of the main AR or customization folks whoā€™ve been picked.

And Iā€™m still not sure why Blizzard needs a ā€œcouncilā€ to tell them what players want or what they should work on when theyā€™ve had the forums for years doing exactly that.

This is another thing. Its clearly a popular ā€œfeatureā€ so why are they so stingy with itā€¦

Bah!

One of the reasons I intend to stick around with all thats going onā€¦

Sethrak for the players!

I briefly went over some of the threads in the Community Council Forums. I do think they will come over to GD to take a look at some of the discussion is.

And I do agree with you on the front that in part, this is what the GD was intended for.

However, I hope maybe this will help and it is a plus that theyā€™re just players like the rest of us.

So maybe, just maybe one of the council members will see this thread and others like it.

:snake: :hugs:

I hope so.

AR threads and Customization threads deserve someone in their corner on that Council.

Iā€™ve started linking other AR threads and Customization threads on my Void Elf Customization thread in the hopes that if Blizzard (or a council member) takes note theyā€™ll see many of the collected threads.

As always though, Sethrak for the players!

I do see some of the community council interacting on the GD. Some have even offered up ways of contact so as a way for the community to give more feedback. So thatā€¦ might be promising.

But who knows. Maybe Iā€™ll ask one of them to take a look into some of the customziation and playable race threads.

Or anyone else if free to do so.

:snake: :pray:

Look at this night 3D render of Serastiss, the sethrak OC of ground-lionā€™s.

Very nice! Love it!

Encouraging. Would be nice for some way to make sure our voices are heard. :frowning:

I reached out to one of the Council members.

I hope at the very least they read some of the threads I linked, and if itā€™s not their expertise, the torch is passed to a member whoā€™s interested in this part of the game.

And I hope that at least our passion is seen.

Iā€™ll be happy if they just link the threads to be honest. No need for essays. We already wrote the essays.

On another note, I was perusing the PTR version of WoWhead and found they did find models of Emeni for 9.2. So while not a huge surprise or finding, Iā€™m glad theyā€™re including her in some manner going forward. As it was a bit lackluster for 9.1.

At the same time I donā€™t think weā€™ll get to hear the rest of her story. :frowning:

I also wish we could save Serrikā€™s soul. Dude didnā€™t deserve to go out the way he did. Though maybe Bwonsamdi squirreled it away for safe keeping.

Sethrak would be cool regardless of what faction they end up in or even neutral. for all of bfas faults i loved the allied race system and i want to see more races join the faction! I want to see jinyu for alliance saberon for the horde, mokā€™nathal orcs like rexxar and more!

That would be neat.

I agree though he deserves to be saved somehow.

I couldnā€™t agree more friend.

Sethrak for the players!

A long time ago, I took screenshots of a Sethrak in front of the Horde and Alliance embassies. I wanted to try taking them again, as I remember the Alliance one at least needed some work. So here is what I came up with:

Hopefully someday, weā€™ll see Sethrak be able to plant their banner at either or both embassies. There is plenty of room in both!

Letā€™s get some reptiles on that character creation screen! :snake: :crocodile: :turtle:
