I still really want this race. I loved them the second I saw them. I miss reptilian races in MMOs. :frowning:

Edit: And now that theyā€™re allowing cross faction raiding, it doesnā€™t even matter to me what faction theyā€™re on. I just wanna play em.

Thats my preferred actually.

Either no difference between the models or just slight tweaks with the body.

Though Iā€™d make females a little bigger than males. Put most of the changes in the hips and broadness of the shoulders for the physical.

I DO NOT want to see orbs of mammory tissue on em.

Hate orbs of mammory tissue on reptile racesā€¦

Welcome to the neutral side of things. :smiley:

That cross faction makes some of this a lot easier overall. We can focus on just the race itself and not worry as much about what side theyā€™re on.

Showing my support once again for my most wanted race! Gimme the snakes already, Blizzard! I still have my name saved for them and everything!

As do I. Itā€™s a shame WoW has gone so long without any playable reptilian races.

Luckily, there are plenty of reptilian races in the game that would work very well as playable races. Hopefully, weā€™ll see them become more than a NPC race someday!

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

Psssssssssssssst

Sstill hoping for our mighty Sethrak sometime soon as playable, you folks will always have my full support. I would play a shaman or druid, I feel.

I miss that Tortollan thread. Wish that guy had kept up.

Saurok, Sethrak and Tortollan together would be amazing.

There were at least two Tortollan megathread attempts if I recall correctly, which sadly fizzled out. A shame, since Iā€™ve been thinking of doing some in-game reptile events at some point (still thinking out the details) and could use some Tortollan fans to help out with that regard.

Iā€™m for them being playable myself, since turtles are my favorite animal. Itā€™s a reason I try to include them when I talk about playable reptilian races. I donā€™t know what the chances are for them, but I would happily roll a Tortollan character if they did.

I only excluded Sethraliss because some of her design may be attributed to her being a loa and special character.

However I do agree her model can be used for female Sethrak as she has wider set hips and a higher set chest.

As a Hozenā€¦ Ook. :monkey:

+1 for Sethrak though :snake:

A new expansion announcement is bound to happen soon, as in this or the next quarter. Letā€™s hope for some scaly friends will be announced with it.

Oh man Iā€™d lose my mind if they announced Sethrak for the next expansion (regardless of side).

Someone had a nice mock upā€¦

Let me seeā€¦

I donā€™t seem to have the author in my notes so if anyone knows.

But as you can see the models are only subtley different. The males are also much smaller than the females. Love it.

Also, Nadez I donā€™t know if youā€™ve seen or not but I made a Furbolg thread using your and Zuros framework. I made sure to give you both credit at the end.

Sethrak for the players!

My main issue with the wind serpent balance form is that the balance form requires being able to mount, as you can be in balance form and use mounts, be in vehicles, etc. So I think a more snake featurey zandalari balance form would work instead. And maybe have the wind serpent for the flight form, or the pterrordax would work too since the sethrak use them as flying mounts. Still a great concept!

Yeah Iā€™d have the wind serpent be the flight form myself.

Itā€™s a cool idea for balance but Iā€™m not sure itā€™s practical.

I do like using the Arakkoa model like the Zandalari do though for the balance form. Just Sethralissy.

Sethrak for the players!

I donā€™t think Sethrak would be able to be druids. I donā€™t remember seeing any in-game that are druids. Playable Sethrak are likely but I donā€™t think Blizz would go for druids, honestly. :man_shrugging::snake::zap:

I think they could tie in the druids of the fang (from wailing caverns) to the sethrakkā€¦then boom :boom: Sethrakk Druids :revolving_hearts:

Looks like a Gold Mine of awesomness. Only problem I see is Helms. Id buy Sethrak!

Wowhead already addressed that years ago and a few have further proven helms are not an issue.

Helmets for Sethrak arenā€™t a problem to make them a allied race.

Sethrak have a cobra head so try to put a helmet on them isnā€™t so easy (but itā€™s possible).

Easiest solution: Do the same thing as the Mechagnomes for Sethrak => Mechagnomes canā€™t ā€œwearā€ pants and arm sleeves. Do the same thing for Sethrak with the helmets.

But keep in mind itā€™s the easiest solution, we can have other solutions too. :grinning:

I think best option is just to fit the helms to them.
