I did the heritage armor quest yesterday, and i can say that in my opinion it is the best heritage quest of all the heritage quests so far!
------SPOILERS AHEAD!!!----------
So why is it so great?! Let me say!
Firstly, i was not too sure, when starting because right at start we have kind of silly sci-fi joke with Ramuul not managing to contact us with the device, but its fine.
Then we go to Shatrath and Auchindoun and they managed to not make jokes or references to alternate draenor, we see Maladaar, and i mean OUR Maladaar being a good guy finally, and we meet some old exarch from the rise of the horde novel.
Then its even better because we see what everyone wanted to see! The 3 representative of the Eredars working together, them being Velen, Hatuun and Arzaal (who finally have a voice acting!) working together to fight another famous man’ari who is finally back : Sironas! (which if you remember i myself teased in my very old thread!) and she could be back again since she is beaten on Azeroth!
Then! The final piece! The finality of the quest! We finally have a reconcilisation between Velen and Hatuun and also an offer to the penitent man’ari of Arzaal to stay on Azeroth!
Another point is also that we have ALL of the important npcs even the less important of the Eredars, like Akama, like Volunai, and also! Finally, the return of Val’zuun!

And as conclusion we have a finally real unification of the eredars, which are no longer called Draenei by the npcs!
But Eredars!! Becuause the idea is that, they no longer will cry about Argus, their home, to be lost, but rather they will claim Azeroth as their new permanant home, as such are no longer exiled on it, but live on it.
And we also have a perspective to look in the future! A new home! that they will build! a new city maybe? A revamp of the Azuremyst and Bloodmyst islands?
That is why, imo this heritage quest is the best, because not only do it make the race move forward (something a lot of heritage quests dont do, like for example the blood elf one just tell you what happenned but nothing moving forward) but also! It gives you a future to look forward to!
Great quest really!
So… we really can have the “Opps I was wrong sowwwy” Eredar walking scot-free in Stormwind? 
Or Velen’s offer not extends to major cities just the planet he not really owns…?
More like to be accepted by the other uncorrupted eredars without fear of being badly treated.
Woo-hoo!!!
Welcome party in the Blue Recluse tonight!

Well… it is a start 
It is clearly a chapter in the history of the eredars and will have more later!
Do you guys think the name “draenei” should be changed into eredars in the race selection and others tooltips?
At some point, sure. They could do that. On the other Hand, it would diminish their history and cause for confusion, if it would be changed if (new) players (re)visit old content.

I think, it could be made without too much confusions, just like for Night Elves they are both called Kaldorai while the name in the char selection etc is Night Elf.
To me, i think they should change the name in the char selection and others place to Eredars, but keep the moments where in lore they say Draenei because, these moments would still be in older contexte of before the Heritage quest so it would not be wrong or confusing in my point of view.
When do you guys think the new capitale of the eredars on Azeroth will be built?
After The Last Titan. Most likely when they revamp northern Kalimdor.

Bumping this thread, the OP post is very detailed, I really wished Blizz would take some suggestions from here.
The purple skin color (13) doesn’t even have the green gift of the Naaru, and there’s some Man’ari Eredar using this skin color, not all of them are red skinned.
Also all Draenei Warlocks (Not Lightforged) should be mentioned as being one in quests and dialogue, instead of the trigger being tied to just two skin colors imo.
On the heritage quest you only get mentioned as being a penitent if you’re red skinned.

I remember the day how i made reddit posts about it on the very first day and it did get good amount views, but within those months when others made posts about Man’ari they just didn’t bother with it.
In my perspective is that, the thing was done already when they announced it they just waited the right moment to release that RGB recolor skin.
And with so little time they had around 2 months before the release i recall they just didn’t want to redo that, since that requiers a bit more work need to update the horns, get them working, abs, extra few rigging probably needs to be done. And if the devs already have deadlines to work on other things then yeh, i would not blame em for not able to work on it longer.
Perhaps one day we will see it, it takes them a good while to bring out things, usually what i notice is that they bring things out when the hype train is dead. Meaning several years later.

Yes, thats something i try to explain in my OP, the fact that, since war3 not all man’ari are just red, actually the very frist of them that we saw in game was Archimonde and he was not red he was greenish/blue the first red one we saw was Kil’jaeden and it was during TFT.
The green gift of the naaru should be a customization option on its own, just like with the LF draenei you can customize your gift of the naaru, the draenei should be able to have that same possibility and choose to have it as a green gift with also different new signs shapes.
Well, the thing is, as i mention in my thread, the customization are in the games for npc since 6.2, to make it available for players would requirt just to push one button, it dont requirt any kind of big work to make it happens as it is already in the game, just not avalailble for players.
You can actually even use it in the wowhead dressing room.

I am very excited about the next Hearthstone expansion! There will maybe have a lot of cool art of man’ari in it!! Here is the keyart!
Brand new lore addition to the pre-draenor period of the draenei : https://x.com/machadogps/status/1851836499827843337
Here whats the tweet says :
Hearthstone Lore Fact of the Day #497
Did you know that Dirdra disagreed with Velen & decided to challenge the Burning Legion head-on?
She formed the Voronei, a Draenei faction that pilots The Legion’s Bane in hope of ending the Demonic invasion.
She also has a Lightsaber!
Can be an interesting idea for draenei dh and thus man’ari customization!
Some people theorize that we might get a Legion remix in the future due to the color on the roadmap here : https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Snimka-obrazovky-2024-11-17-o-14.09.14.jpg
I dont know if its true, it is likely as Legion have a pretty good amount of content and would thus be a good fit for remix.
But, maybe we might get Man’ari related transmogs or even customizations?!
