There is indeed a Horde Ogre megathread located here:
As far as Vrykul, Iām personally unsure if there ever was a Vrykul megathread. You might want to search to see if someone ever made one, as Iāve never personally seen a Vrykul megathread.
Getting back to Sethrak, itās good to see this megathread still active. Iām still interested in making a Sethrak if they ever became playable. Iām also still leaning towards making a male Sethrak Shadow Priest if they did become playable, as I feel like the Priest class is a likely option for them.
oooh, okay. gotcha. I suppose i could see that, but crocolisk/basilisks are longer and less stout than the bear/anklyosaur. With the exception of zandalari moonkin, all forms have used the traditional skelemanz for their respective forms. Bear and Cat forms, especially, would need their basic skeletons for animations to be copied over neatly.
I feel a krolusk could be modified to fit a bear skeleton more easily than a croc, but iād gladly take whatever forms they want as long as any amount of effort and thought goes into them.
But itās no use asking seriously for Vrykuls, when I already fear, their round version, Kultirans, added to the game.
It seems difficult for Blizzard to do something about vrykul for the alliance, but it wasnāt hard to invent silvermoonās 40 blood elves, paint them all purple and make them forget their hatred to ally.
Like the kul tiran druids have dead seaweed and skull motifs for their forms the sethrak could focus on chitinous heads and bits mixed with sand and lightning between the harder bits.
They donāt have to be actual animals in their forms like the kul tiran arenāt.
Alliance asking for anything is a lost cause from the start
We might as well ask for something more interesting than tall humans.
Iād be all about some Sethrak druids, my primary alt is a night elf druid and I need something to race change her to. I already have a worgen and Kulātirans do nothing for me.
Yep, Blizz canāt even think about another horde druid race until they balance us out, Sethrak work the best for it.
Since the only rule KT forms seem to follow is having a fleshy body the Sethrak could do that too, for sureā¦ maybe it could be an example of what happens when a race tries to āforceā druidismā¦ sort of Frankenstein monster of sand and bone/chitin animated by lightning.
Make them a neutral race like the Pandaās are and let the player choose which faction to join. I think the game needs more Neutral (Ally) Races anywayā¦
Vulpera and Mechagnomes are the last round of Allied Races in BFA with no confirmation theyāre continuing the feature outside of BFA, as their team moves to focus on existing race customization.
Sethrak have an NPC model with several skin tones and zero customization outside of that, as compared to vulpera who were out of the gate with multiple ear, snout, fur color, and fur pattern options.
Their clothing is baked-in NPC-only armor with texture mapping for existing armor models.
Lorewise, thereās no real reason for them to join one faction over the other, but if they did, it would be the Horde due to the aid offered by the Horde player and the Vulpera (who are now Horde-aligned).
So what should we suggest as possible allied race?
Cockroaches?
Will Worgen, Night Elves, forsaken and Pandarens be the only races to see nothing related to allied races?
Although it is not possible for sethraks to come to the alliance, because the lore that made blood elves be painted purple to come to ally cannot be applied to sethraks on ally, it would be a waste if they didnāt go to the horde at least, so that they can be a playable race.
And we havenāt seen the blizzard yet say there will be no sethrak.
So until the end of BfA, I do not plan to discard sethrak from the realm of possibilities.
Night Elves had their Allied Race passed off to Horde (Nightborne) an belves had theirs passed off to Alliance (Void Elves).
Worgen could have the original night elf worgen as their Allied Race but the story opportunity to get the night elf worgen to join up against the Horde has come and gone with BFA.
Similarly, it has come and gone with Forsaken as the Sanālayn leaders that assisted the Horde are gone, the valākyr follow Sylvanas (so no new undead to be raised), and thereās no insinuation that more Light-undead like Calia are going to happen.
Pandaren sit on the fence and the devs said they donāt want to repeat that, and I highly doubt theyād bring 1 race to each faction on behalf of the pandaren.
IMO, playable sethrak sit in the same realm as Tortollans, Hozen, Jinyu, Mantid, etc. NPC-only race with monogendered appearance.
