Void Elf-High Elf Customization Thread

Is affliction any fun these days?

My Horde warlock is a Sandfury boy and I do love to tank, but… Hm.

It’s alright but you basically get locked into being in Night Fae if you want to play it in any type of higher content besides basic dungeons, random battlegrounds, etc.

You could always go with hunter.

but youre not ‘everybody,’ you are the only void themed race in the game and the only thing you ever suggest is to literally remove the void elf aesthetic completely so its just a plain blood elf

Boast meant every race.

They think an eye color was sufficient for the visual distinction BEs lost too

:face_with_monocle: would adding blue eyes to VEs have been a second visual theme for VEs without the non void skin tone additions?

I really hate saying this but I want the Void Elf eye color that’s purple/pink colored that my Void Elf uses, Blizzard really should share that to Blood Elves.

I’d love that white void colour that velves get on blood elves. It looks like the all white eyes Thalassians had in WC3.

Blood Elves have shared enough on a one way street so far, VEs could share a few things with them still not getting natural hair options and I feel that would be fair.

I’m not saying they should, I’m just saying I really want that eye color on this character. It would look so good with this hair. :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes:

Here’s what I was talking about for reference:

Yeah, the Priests had cool eyes in Warcraft 3.

I once tried to make a mockup that resembled the Warcraft 3 High Elf Priest. This was before they had even announced Reforged, if I recall.
I’m not sure how well it came out, but I tried to approximate the eyes.

Yeah I was just saying VEs could do with sharing options and pointed that out because the second the topic is bridged people forget BEs have already shared a huge deal with them and they seem to want to barter for natural hair options.

So I was just agreeing and pointing out it could be done and still not be an excuse for HE fans to argue for the last of our visual theme.

What’s cool with that eye color is that it takes tints from helms that have an eye glow REALLY well. Observe:

Depends on the helm. For the red glow on the Eagletalon hoods, the gold eyes on belves or the void purple on velves bring it out better for whatever reason.

even though the colors are part of their heritage and reflective of the sunwell restored, i would happily trade them back if it meant void elves never got our skin tones. the fact that the true ‘high elves’ in terms of themes and in terms of class choice can only be played by horde blood elves is what is most important to me and many people who arent lore deniers

those same people reject the lore and development. this is what i am talking about :woman_shrugging:

I fear at times that Blood Elves will not get a second theme. Because with how I see the Dev’s thinking they already have two themes. If you are trying to figure out what I mean, just think about the Interview with Ion when they gave Blood Elves the Blue Eyes and the Void Elves the Blue Eyes and Skin Tones. He said that High Elves were a race that both sides wanted to play but were previously not available. Which means that I wouldn’t be surprised if Ion doesn’t consider Blood Elves having two themes with Blood Elves and High Elves. Void Elves having two themes with Void Elves and High Elves. The difference being that one is an eye color, while the other is much more visually distinct.

I am so everyone!

…Except tauren, kul’tiran and vulpera.

But the others all have their heritage armor or are ready for it.

I wasn’t joking when I said I like customization!

Yea, the fact that the Void Elf eyes are white basically diffuses the color a bit. The more orange-ish Blood Elf eyes result in a deeper darker red.

For void elves, I think the void purple eyes worked well with the Eagletalon hoods with red eye glows from what I recall. I didn’t end up using it though and only saw it in the dressing room.
