Hildr:
If I’m a Shadow Priest or maybe a Rogue, hypothetically a warlock perhaps, I’d rather be a Void Elf.
Almost anything else, I’d rather be a High Elf.
See the issue?
Lightforged Draenei have the same problem, I literally can’t see them as anything but Paladins or Holy Priests, and their heritage narrows it even further by being straight up paladin armor. Void Elf Heritage I don’t know what that’s supposed to be, so I won’t go there.
Void Elves are really cool if they have a class that’s shadowy or spooky, but otherwise feel almost too specific in that direction. Hence why some people are still interested in High Elves. I mean a Void Elf Holy Priest? Cognitive dissonance.
This is literally my exact feeling towards the lightforged. I can’t see or play them as anything but something overtly holy. Void elves fall in that same vein, though I do like them aesthetically.
