I am happy you’re back.

That would be a great Racial. The Racial right now is kind of meh. You use it and it only only teleport you for about few miles and even then it’s not really helpful when you trying to get out of the enemies from attacking you.

And how exactly is that taking the void from void elves?

I mean, all I have been requesting for is an option to hide the racial visual effect. Nothing there being taken from the Void Elves.

What would also be a neat idea is if they changed EE into more of a Starcursed Aura and added the current visual as a skin tone you could rock 24/7.

Add the heritage wings as a barbershop effect too!

Very that. It’s fairly close to the Starcursed aesthetic, instead with a Druidic/Elune flair.

Something similar though with a bit more darker appearance with more of a darker naaru appearance would also be very welcome :hugs:

I’d also love to see Night Elf players get a few more Night Warrior aesthetics as well.

A thousand percent agree! I would love for the Void and Night elves to bond and they do share a similar theme Moon/Night/Galaxy!

I like to think of it as the Night Elves draw on the Moon as well as the natural aspects of the stars, while the Void allies draw more on the dark mysteries of outer space and the more arcane/Void side of distant stars.

Ie they embody different aspects of the cosmos.

Also for this reason we could possibly have Void Elf Druids too?

I like the vampire-y aspect of void elves, I would love dark red hair and eyes.

Blizzard has to do this. I would love Heritage Wings as a barbershop effect too.

Yes indeed.

I actually really dislike the chest piece as it’s basically just a bra with a collar, not to mention it’s definitely more of a gaudy shade of purple, whereas a darker shade would be more befitting of the Void aesthetic.

I would love to see the Heritage Armor in more colours too, since Blizzard is giving the Alliance the chance to be High Elves through the Void Elves, but more customisations still need to come for them.

As to when that will happen, it could be later in the expansion, it could be next expansion, who knows. But in a way, I am grateful Blizzard is allowing us to pick our path. But honestly, they need to give more loving to the Nightborne the most.

By literally asking that lol. You want to hide any void effects and void curruption from void elves, the race that is supposed to be all about the void and what it does to a person. They are trying to learn how to control the void, and ee helps show the struggle.

Quoted from Ion

According to a dev interview Ion gave several months ago, Blood Elves were originally unintended to have blue eyes in Shadowlands, but later on that decision was reversed following team discussions. If the art department was involved, what was the reasoning that led to blue eyes being added for Void Elves and Blood Elves?

This is another place where there was a race, High Elves, in the game which hadn’t really been represented on player characters. Blood Elves were the closest, but had felt green eyes. It was an opportunity where we had a number of elven races, and we could tie it back to their roots, letting players choose where they want to align and what fantasy to play out. We did have a lot of discussion about it, ultimately we might do more in the future, but for now we’re providing the option to have a few High Elf customizations available.

source

The idea from this is that Blizzard is allowing us to chose from what fantasy we want to play from, without adding another race that is similar. Basically, if we want to play a High Elf on Alliance, then we can, through the Void Elves. They added some things for now, but there is more coming in the future.

Now, what I am requesting for, is something that is not going to hurt you, or your game play, or effect you emotionally in any means. It is something that I have been requesting for, and in the end, it isn’t up to you or me on whether Blizzard does this or not, but up to the devs themselves.

I like the idea of a more voidy skin color. Maybe a stiped T-shirt and some black skinny jeans. Maybe a black hair with a pink highlight or a purple highlight.

Maybe an earring thats an upside down cross or a crow.

You know, emo stuff.

It is going to hurt the void elf fantasy. Why seek out void powers when the arcane or another magic source gives the same empowering effects? It literally deligitimizes the void elf story.

It hurts the BE visual fantasy as well and fans of visual distinction as well as fans of the factions.

People don’t need to be BE fans or VE fans to see how allowing VEs access to the visual theme of BEs waters down both instead of new unique options both in the sense of for VEs but also Void Elves have a unique visual theme that is Alliance that’s pretty cool in terms of actually adding something to the game and the faction.

Confirmed role play tools aren’t really the flex people think it is, I wasn’t ever under the impression the characters we played weren’t our characters, sure it’s nice for the confirmation in general but it doesn’t change or have impact outside of our personal characters.
