Unofficial Sethrak Discussion Thread 🐍

[Briselody-lightnings-blade (Briselody)]

Because Blizzard can and has pulled 180’s on lore before. Nightborne had no aspirations or even rational reason to join either faction until their recruitment scenario. Void elves didn’t even exist until theirs. Times change.

The primary argument for them being on Alliance is that they’d bring something new and interesting thematically to the Alliance, which it desperately needs. The “whole of two minutes” they spent (which was actually a fairly extensive questline) is more than enough to build on if they wanted to.

That being said, most in this thread don’t actually care what faction they go to, though personally I don’t want them to go to Horde because I have no interest in playing anything there. The OP is outdated and likely doesn’t even play anymore, which is why Nad is working on a new one that won’t get you Horde stans all riled up.

Unoffical Playable Sethrak Discussion Thread

This thread is dedicated to discussing the possibility of playable Sethrak, as well as Sethrak in general, and all the things they might come with if they are to be playable. Such as customization and new lore. https://i.imgur.com/7EHnkFU.jpg Contents: Why a new Sethrak thread, when there’s already another with over 6,000 replies?

Y’all gonna have to let me know what you think. I did a LOT of edits.

[Fezzy-draenor (Fezzy)]

I love it. Its exactly what we needed I think. Expanding upon this thread in every way and opening the door for a more even keel on Horde and Alliance or Neutral viewpoints!

[Nadezhdha-proudmoore]

Thank you! And thanks to Zuro for give me the base draft to give me something to start with!

I will likely add and edit over the next few days and into the future.

Not everything translated well from my document, into the forum format. xD A bit of it looked wonky. I think I already fixed the worse offending bits.

[Nadezhdha-proudmoore]

OMG. THEY MAKDE MEREKTHA TAMEABLE IN SHADOWLANDS.

/SCREECHES

WoW Petopia

I made an in game suggestion for this months and months ago!!

[Fezzy-draenor (Fezzy)]

See! The suggestions help!

[Sunne-area-52]

My only suggestion would be using the spoiler tags for less scrolling but I am just lazy!

Like:

Sethrak Lore. What we know as of now.

Snek stuff.

[Nadezhdha-proudmoore]

I forget the formatting to do that!

Throw it at me and I’ll toss it in

Thank ya both.

I added a few in.

Some of it got buggy so I had to leave as is. xD

[Terranox-stonemaul (Terranox)]

I would like to see some nuetral allied races. Sethrak seem to be one of those races that would be good for being nuetral. As we could have Zandalari sethrak allies, and faithless and nomad allies for the alliance.

[Fallynn-wyrmrest-accord (Fallynn)]

I think someone could start a ticket to get this one locked, but I’m not sure if they’d do so since the OP isn’t the one doing it. Either way that new thread looks neat!

[Alaeis-wyrmrest-accord (Alaeis)]

I’m still around. I left WoW due to a bad break up, having to move then not having internet due to covid and then after everything just needing a break.

I’m still really sad about sethrak but glad people still love them. I actually was in a conversation in game about them today. People have not forgotten.
If you’re all wanting to make a new thread go for it. I would love to be part of spreading the love for Sethrak still but a lot of the fight is gone from me now that bfa is coming to an end. I’m afraid we will never even hear about sethrak again. u.u

And every time I see a mechagnome I want to feed it to my snake irl >:’ (

Have hope yet. Sethrak have been mentioned in SLs and while it may not be as direct as we may want, it’s still more than many supposedly lost causes.

I will say mechagnomes took nothing from us, it was unlikely Sethrak would have gone Alliance at the time they released, blizzard would need some more story there to get us to them, and there is no reason we cannot have both.

I’ve been wanting this race since I saw it, especially with how unique they look. Something I’d have done if I were designing them to be playable was when making the models, make them a lot more unique. What I’d have done for them was to make the males the way we see them in game, while the females would have a viper like appearance, where they’d have more prominent scales and a lot more color variation. Another thing I’d do is have it to where helmets would remain hidden on them (much like how pants and boots are hidden on mechagnomes). This would avoid needing any real redesign for helmets and thus allow the Sethrak to still be able to equip them.

[Fezzy-draenor (Fezzy)]

@Rylanen-zuljin

Honestly right now their not any worse than Tauren or Worgen with such things.

Though personally if I were blizz I’d redesign specific types of head pieces.

Hoods mostly…

A sethrak with a hood that covers their… Hood… Would be really neat.

[Fokuro-sentinels]

Hopefully we see more of the Sethrak in Maldraxxus

[Xamantul-ragnaros]

I really want Sethraks being playable for Horde, to me are even cooler than Vulperas tbh
