What's the deal with High Elves?

It’s unlikely both because Ion said no already and because they wouldn’t have done void elves if they had planned playable alliance helves.

Ion said they would consider giving them more skin tones.

Ion has said no to A LOT of things that eventually turned around. That shouldn’t be a limiting factor at this point.

Which, imo, is probably what they will end up doing.

Horde has there version (Blood) and Alliance has their’s (Void) .

Both are High Elves . There has been not been time for their to be any genetic differenc. All the Blood and Void Elves were known as High Elves until the either changed their names due to Arthas and the Scourge or embracing th VOid.

Blood Elf Leader was once a high ranking High Elf Ranger.

Sure if they add Ethereals to the Horde and give all Blood Elf characters free race changes.

Would be super easy to toggle the racials to have arcane effects instead of void effects.

It still doesn’t make it final :sweat_smile:

Which the closest races we got to alliance are blood elves undead (humans) and nightborne who look alot like night elves. So if that ever happens I would expect some same things for other races to be fair.

Void-embraced elves aren’t the only type of high elves in the Alliance, though!

Cool, give us horde worgen and you have a deal.

Except you don’t, because I’m not a game dev. :stuck_out_tongue:

You may never know lol, Blizzard has a history of backtracking, so none of their word is final

It would require switching the spell animations (I don’t know how labor intensive that would be) and icons in the spellbook. I think they’d be more inclined to share the racials of the blood elves instead since they fit more thematically. There is also the issue of heritage armor for both void elves and blood elves, though :confused:

You mean like WoW Classic ?

That came because of a need to protect their Intellectual Property. It was never about what people were asking for. It just worked out and both sides got a win/win

Horde race. It’s a Horde race. We’re a Horde race. We’re a race on the Horde. Since 2007. Horde.

It was about people too and to protect their intellectual property. Nostralius backlash blew them off.

Who says alliance high elves aren’t the same kind of intellectual property? Haha

Why create a new thread asking this question?

Just go to one of the hundreds of others that ask the same exact thing.

Sorry to bother you!

I mean… i don’t see the point of making Blood elves neutral.

It devalues the request to just wanting Horde’s pretty races on Alliance.

And i will always detest that idea.
