Final Wish: Long Beards for Humans!

It’s a long overdue - give us long beards for Humans! It is a customization that should literally be one of the first that were ever implemented into the game to begin with. The fantasy of Mages and Necromancers and whatnot having long beards in the game is something that we have seen since Warcraft: Orcs and Humans (WC1). It is also something that NPC’s had in classic, Human NPC’s: the Necromancers.

In your announcement of Dragonflight you were proudly talking about your creativity and about how you have made such great visuals… But so much for creativity if, for Light’s sake, you can’t even think to make a long beard for the most diverse race in the game.

I doubt there is much work to do, just copy paste the Dwarven beard(s), as you have done with Kul’Tiran facial hair at the start of the Shadowlands.

Here are some renders and photoshops of how majestic the Human race would look with long beards:

(The above picture depicts a kindred spirit, whose beard was made simply by stretching down an already existing beard in the game!)

Above we see a depiction of Gandalf, a great example of the human wizard fantasy.
And below are just some simpler edits depicting the obvious:

Notice how inappropriate the first Necromancer looks?
Speaking of, let me remind you that you have managed this in Vanilla.

There is a ton of those, that I have provided before in various threads, but let’s just end this by showing a meme:

Please, heed my thread! Add those beards, you can’t keep denying Humans such a basic customization.

Also fix the hairstyles, esp on the females. I love the human race, but some of them look so outdated…

I support this thread. If you can have a long beard as Gandalf, you can have a long bead as a WoW Wizard. Yes, they’re the same.

Don’t give them ideas, but honestly, sometimes it feels like we are in ancient Egypt or something.

When even Horde players support this (which is quite common), it really shows how basic this customization is and how weird it is that it has not yet been added to the game.

i’m afraid marketing research has proven that beards are the ultimate sign of the incels and thus blizzard with their current burning wreck of a company cant afford make beards longer for beta male incels

With the current design philosophy they’ll give us a weekly fill the bar quest. Every time you do this quest your beard grow 1mm.
After 1000 quest completions your beard will be 1m long.

Oi! Oi!
OI!!! oi!!.

If any council member could ask for this at the Community Council it’d be grand. :santa:
