Highmountain Tauren Customisation

With this data mine, I have to say I’m relatively happy.
The fur colours look good. The addition of antler colours and snapped antlers is great.
Buuuut! More tattoos and colours would be welcome. I think they should retain the one block colour (helps to keep the differentiation between the two tauren types) but add more patterns.
Lower hanging necklaces with various fangs or trophies on would also be a good choice, the standard tauren ones should be lowered too, so they’re more visible.
What does everyone else think?
(I wrote this on the way to work and will have more ideas over time.)

Wow ,i didn’t even know it was planed for this update.Very nice :+1:

It might not be, wasn’t part of any previews.
We’ll see what happens in that regard.

I’m happy for our Highmountain brothers. :heart:

Hope you achieve what you desire

Yeah, some more tattoo patterns and colors would be amazing. Very glad that these customizations are being added!

:deer:

They seem pretty far in implementation of those considering how many options they are, I wonder if we will get them in 9.1.5.

I hope they are, but I’m not expecting it.

Some tattoos to represent the Ironhorn would be cool. Hammers or something.
The full face paint that the NPC in Orgrimmar has (it’s a normal tauren, but meh) would be nice too. Just a pure X coloured face.

Good blizz, these changes look great and have encouraged me to dig up my HMT chars last night and give them a play.

Just one thing (I hope you see) please please please can you consider a white/very pale grey skin and the option of black horns as well? I’m loving all these new browns and ash colours but these two additions would complete the set!

I’m… not completely satisfied when it comes to the female options.

There’s a lot of really awesome stuff and I love most of the things that were added, but I’m not really a huge fan of any of the hairstyles (they are okayish, but could use a few wilder-looking ones) and I’m a bit disappointed to see we didn’t get a few more horn options. Including the new ones, HMT will have I think 7 or 8 options. Regular Tauren have at least 20. I get that antlers might not have as much potential for variety, but still.

Oh, and it’s a bit disappointing that they went for black and grey skintones, but not pure white. The one we got looks cool, but it’s more… dunno, palomino or something. A white would be nice.

I really hope there is an option to choose the “jewellery colour,” because right now the string horn decorations have specific colours tied to the horn styles, and that’s a bit restricting.

Nice. Thoose horns are massive!

Why does it look like corn/maize?

Still nothing compared to Void elves.

Because corn is very important to HMT culture? They really like their corn, I think.

What I find more puzzling is this:

Uh. Always wear protection?

I’m guessing this is the result of taurens liking nature and its wildlife just a bit too much.

Bring me my antler sheaths!

Sure was unique to recruit the moose people that literally have no visual difference besides reindeer/moose antlers.

Why couldn’t we recruit the drogbar instead!

Currently have Eagle, Bear, Moose and Otter tattoos.
Water, earth and air ones would be nice. (There is no path of fire.)
Add white, darker blue and deep brown markings.
