Last wish - Nightborne customization

I LOVE the new Nightborne stuff, but the faces still look the same,
Doing an emote you can see how amazing they would look if they didnt look like grumpy old men when relaxed:

Been thinking on things a bit and the changes are excellent BUT there are some things I still want to see.

  • More non-wrinkly faces for male Nightborne.
  • Glowing hair/hands.
  • Some changes to heritage to add some variants that show off Nightborne Tattoos more and represent the Nightborne we see in game. We’ve seen mogs like this pulled off via belts and stuff with the new Kyrian Covenant set.

And of course, please give us a neutral/Horde Suramar phase so that we can wander our fair city without our Duskwatch trying to kill us!

After looking at the Nightborne PTR changes, I am disappointed that the skin tints do not feature more lighter tones. Also, the newly added male faces are all ugly and evil looking. If these changes are final, me and my Nightborne playing friends will NOT be re-subbing in the near future. We’ve been waiting for years for updates to Nightborne customization, just to fell short when it could have been amazing :frowning:

Can Night elves get some regal hairstyles and the golden jewelry options to? Even if they are from the Nightborne. The new long hairstyle that Nightborne got screams Azshara. It’s just so sad you can’t look like a proper Highborne or even close to Azshara. Either you need to go with full purple aka Nightborne or more blue aka Night Elves :sob:

You aren’t Azshara sister. There’s only one Azshara. Our queen beneath the tides

This is probably the best we’re gonna get unfortunately. I think Nightborne (especially males) needed a larger rework than this. The faces are still too round, ears are too big, chest too wide, lips too thin etc. I could go on about it forever. We needed more than just a new eye shape to resemble our NPC counterparts. This is a hot take but I think the new eyes still don’t look quite right.

There are a lot of extra things that would be cool to have, like arcane hair and glowy hands, but the original goal of making Nightborne look more like their NPC versions has failed in my opinion. We still look like discount Nightborne and I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed.

I think it is the closest we can get at this point, playing around with the customizations, I could make a decent look.

I do understand that there are parts that need an overhaul, but still.

Still need an npc haircut though…

Is it me or does he look like as if he’s just a few moments away from starting to beg for mana crystals on the streets of Orgrimmar? lmao :rofl:

Since 9.1.5 is still in development, PLEASE DO IT RIGHT!
A broader spectrum of customizations is mandatory - nicer faces, and lighter skin tints. Also, some NPCs look much more interesting.
Nightbornes are elves first - why should they look so menacing?
Either you do it right or you’ll lose even more subscribers - including myself.

Loving the new greenish skin tones and greenish hairstyles.
I might even make a Nightborne Warlock, if that is supposed to resemble them.

These updates are positive. Can I suggest though that Nightborne get the glowing arcane hands option that all the Nightborne NPCs in-game have.

Also as a bonus I’d like to suggest worgen human form not breaking due to combat, but being a standard toggle mode down to player choice. But this topic is primarily about Nightborne so, please - arcane hand glow.

There is a forum for PTR Testing if you wanted to give feedback in there as well, to cover all bases.

Blizz, you are so close!
You need to add the following:

  • Nicer faces, more similar to the NPCs
  • More diverse skin colors, including lighter tones
  • Glowing hands

DO IT RIGHT! PLEASE!

I’m so sorry to be a pain Linxy but please pass on our last few requests on customization for 9.1.5:

Nightborne: Azshara skin tone and pink skin tone, and fix the faces that have a scowl to look more neutral.

Void Elves: Fix the gaps with the missing pixels where tentacles were removed, such as the ponytails on both genders, and hairstyle 2 and 7 for females.

Another popular request is to enable hair colour to show through the Entropic Embrace effect.

Thank you so much for your efforts so far! We really appreciate the new customization options! <3 :heartpulse: :heart_eyes:
