Last wish - Nightborne customization

My favorite Community rep Linxy! Would you be so so kind to ask if a White and Black hair colour can also be added for Void elves? Some of our friends in both the Helf and Velf communities are sad because we did not get to see a White and a Black. The time for requests is right now! I promise to lay low after that! Thank you again SOOOO much WoW team and Community reps!! <3 <3 <3

Indeed I have friends who were really hoping to see a Brown along with the Blonde! Perhaps they can add a lovely Brown, Black and White by the time 9.1.5 hits!
Besides Void elves are having it worse than any other race with hair colours atm, they have the least variety out of all the races (no joke check if you donā€™t believe me)

This isnā€™t FF when it comes to what you want, please stop. There are games for that, but donā€™t turn player races into literally Alexstraza copy cats when it comes to showing alot of Skin and less armor.

Skimpy outfits are fun thoā€¦ :sunglasses: Iā€™m a girl and I loveā€™em xxx

Strange fetish in that case.

Linxy thank you, these all look amazing.

Nightborne male is a vast improvement over the current model, it is amazing how much narrow eyes change the model. Also, metal chin really gives a good symmetry with the shape of the ears, really digging the ā€˜ā€˜ancient egyptian nobleā€™ā€™ vibe.

In hopes you read this, oneeeee more thing that you may consider!

Please make the Nightborne heritage armor with pants version as well. It is one of the most amazing looking sets in the game, and while i donā€™t have a general problem with robes/gowns, it is a bit awkard for a hunter, warrior and rogue to sport them :slight_smile:

Linxy, from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank you and the team for everything so far! You have no idea how happy I am. I am like a little kid, excited for Christmas.

I know I might be asking for more, but are there any chances of seeing 2 iconic hairstyles of the Nightborne for the playable Nightborne please?

For female:

Again thank you very much, and everyone who has been working on the Nightborne.

I would really appreciate golden jewelry options for Night Elves and some regal hairstyles pls (even if they are taken from the Nightborne or any other elves). Let me live my full Highborne/Azshara dreams :pleading_face:

Greetings, Linxy. I must say that I admire the work of the art team, you guys are doing an incredible job. I really do, and I hope you keep this up.

However, I find your choices a bit confusing from time to time: When you thought of adding more customizations, why in the world did you not think of adding a single long beard for the Human race?

Are you not familiar with long-bearded Humans? Of course you are. After all, there are Humans in the game with long beards, they just areā€¦outdated NPCs (see Khadgarā€™s TBC model, the Necromancer model, and citizen models in the dungeon ā€œOld Hillsbrad Foothillsā€).

As a main fantasy aspect for Human wizards, shouldnā€™t long beards have been the first thing to come up with?

And especially when you know that Humans are objectively the most diverse race, and you yourselves say that

Humans should have had a long beard option since 9.0.
Of course other races could use it, too, donā€™t get me wrong, but Humans need it most desperately. They donā€™t have a single beard that covers the chest.

I know other races needed attention since they got nothing, but now that you dealt/ are dealing with them, can you please give us a hint that we will actually get long beards for Humans? It is just a terrible injustice we have endured since Classic.

I have a lot of hope that something like long beards for humans is on the agenda, just as it is for the race: humans to introduce the hairstyles and beards of the Kul Tirans.

Blizzard has created such a great diversity with all the hairstyles and other customisation options for different races, why not make them accessible for the most part. It seems that only minimal adjustments are needed in the process.

Oh and it would be really wonderful to see hair and (long) beards through headgear like hats, hoods or open helmets.

Keep up the good work Art Team! Thank you very much!

blonde hair to nightborne aswell ā€¦

Doubtful.
It will make them look unnatural. Yellow hair on beautiful dark body hmmā€¦
Hmmā€¦ :grimacing:

Nightborne have taste so i doubt they need that colour

I love this, but I have to ask if you could do something for Pandaren?

We have this pretty unsightly neckline where the texture stretches and switches resolution. It looks absolutely horrible. Hereā€™s a picture where Iā€™ve taken the chestpiece off to show that it isnā€™t just old armour pieces that do this:

Although it is reasonable to say that we started out with the new rigging and therefore werenā€™t in the state that the other races were in when they were upgraded, we were still the first.

As a result Pandaren have a few glitches and other oddities that witness of a team stretched to its limits trying to get this new rigging to work.

The bodies are not too egregious. They could use a little smoothing around the edges by simply getting some more polygons, and some more loose fur here and there would probably also look great.

No - the issues are the faces. Or rather, the face - and the transition from that face to the body.

Pandaren only have a single facial geometry per gender, and that should be fixed. Broader snouts, flatter brows, a more gaunt face perhaps - whatever you can think of. Some facial options would be nice.

Pandaren males have facial hair, which give a little bit of variety, but the females do not obviously. Outside of facial hair, the different faces are different fur patterns.

(Yes, thatā€™s my hilariously cluttered inventory from BfA. Sue me. Just look at the neckline please. xD)

So - can Pandaren please have:

  • Variety in facial geometry
  • An uprezzing of their body geometry and, in particular, texture
  • A fixed neckline
  • A couple more customisation options, especially in the hair department

We have the oldest model in the game and it really shows.
