What race do you want playable the most?

[Chantilus-bonechewer]

I said High Elves, not blood elves, or blood elves lite.

Blood Elves are LITERALLY High Elves. Not sure why people have such a hard time grasping this simple concept of Warcraft.

[Chantilus-bonechewer]

If you aren’t aware of the physiological changes Blood Elves underwent over thousands of years and more recently to become what they are with green eyes and a mana tap racial, or void elves mutating further with void influence, that’s ok man, tauren are ok too. To each their own.

New race: ogre
Allied race: saberon

Both Horde only.

New Race: Naga
Allied race: Vrykul

Both Alliance only.

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

Oh. You’re back.

If you don’t understand the difference between a High Elf and other elves

I understand the way elves in Warcraft work just fine. It hasn’t changed at all since the RTS. Folks who keep insisting Blood Elves aren’t High Elves seem to be the ones who don’t understand that High Elves are literally just the aristocracy/nobility of the Night Elf society.

Literally every elf in Warcraft is the same race of elves. They just pick different “titles” based on political/religious affiliations and/or the circumstances of their birth.

I’ve been playing a Worgen Death Knight on Ally and that jawn seems as evil as you can get. Undead Werewolf Necromancer? Pretty metal

There were no Blood Elves or Void Elves in any of the RTSs.
So… you’re sure you “understand elves”?

[Paladina-kargath (Paladina)]

Wukong Monkeys for Horde.

Centaur for Alliance.

Huh?

[Mianyaue-moon-guard]

If I need to choose just one race: Mogu.

For the races I really want:

• Mogu (Alliance or Neutral)

• Broken (Alliance)

• Forest Troll (Horde)

• Saberon (Horde)

• Haranir (Neutral)

[Ventorath-wyrmrest-accord]

Non-Outcast Arakkoa. They look cool. Though I understand that if anything we’d get the Outcast ones, and that the time for that has passed.

Following that, Sethrak. Honestly they should have been the counterpart to Vulpera.

I’m fully expecting Haranir either during TWW or going into the next expansion if they stick around. I’ll slap them down as 3rd place.

I’m not keen on some of the old timey common asks for races. Ogres, Naga, etc are ugly as hell beyond logistical issues of doorways, mounting, transmog, etc.

Murlocs are a joke ask that some people treat as not a joke. Those people should be tried for war crimes.

No thanks on Jinyu or Hozen. Hozen wouldn’t fly in 2024+ and I’m surprised people didn’t raise a stink about them in 2012. Jinyu are just lame.

[Dracarian-medivh]

@Mookosh-ysondre

Ogres in WoD were one of the primary antagonists to both factions. Why would either side recruit them during that period?

Not all ogres are Bloodmaul, just like not all forsaken are Scarlet Crusade, and not all humans are fanatics in the Priory. There are several neutral Ogres on Azeroth who we have dealt with in the past. I think the one that sticks out for me was this guy

Lunk's Adventure: Spider Rider

[Phlynch-sentinels (Phlynch)]

Yeah. I’ve been enjoying Genshin Impact for the last few years but I wanted to play with a decent character creator again.

[Thistle-boulderfist]

Kul Tiran Vulpera.

They’re like regular vulpera, just built like a brick ship house.

[Etrich-bloodsail-buccaneers]

Definitely vrykul.

[Furos-garrosh]

Fel Orcs !

[Jenten-crushridge]

I’ve wanted Ethereal since TBC

Would love a more buff stalky red Troll, like the Troll Berserker’s in WC2. I originally wanted to play troll in Vanilla until I saw how lerpy they were.

Ogre’s would be cool, just due to how iconic they are, but I tend to avoid large model characters since they feel slow.

Thats about it for me.

[Obvìoús-stormrage]

I’d play horde again, if i could be an Ogre

[Noa-moon-guard]

I see others who share the same dream of the traditional, non-voidy Alliance Quel’dorei of the Silver Covenant, Quel’Danil and such. I hope for this as well as others in the community. However this is executed, it would be wonderful to have this distinct customization.

[Customization - Race] High Elf Race, Customization & In-Game Architecture

Bal’a dash! To my fellow Council members who know me, my passion resides in the Quel’dorei and RP realms. With that, my hope is that we can implement playable high elves as seen fit. High Elves are a canon race in the Warcraft universe but have only been available to players as a Horde race via Sin’dorei, despite the ongoing demand to create an Alliance-aligned version. Discontent among the RP player base has been ongoing since then, and increasing with each new expansion. The introduction of …

Otherwise, naga has been a childhood dream of mine, with ogres as another one. I seem to prefer the classic fantasies of Warcraft like pre-Sin’dorei/Ren’dorei high elves. I also think Arakkoa are so interesting I can already imagine the gorgeous ‘mogs with their colorful looks.
