I play Nightborne alot. Only thing what bothers me moust is there is only 3 skins and all 3 are blueish skins whats prity disapointing. Adding like skins like dark gray skin or even black. Add some “withered skin tones”. Some eye colors like dark blue or purple or dark gray.

The Nightborne models around Suramar also have thicc thighs and the Nightborne we get to create seem to share a model with Blood Elves… and even if I like Nightborne A LOT more, I think they should get their Suramar models as a customization option.

They are slightly slimmed down Night Elf models with curved up ears.

Just give us the NPC Nightborne, and make the NPC armor/weapons available somehow (make it an achievement or something, like they did with the Lightforged Draenei weapons in Argus).
Nobody asked for the abomination Nightborne we have.

Adding to this, a non-robe heritage armor option.

For me, the biggest problems with Nightborne are:
- big bulging blind lightbulbs for eyes. Nobody wants that. Lore-wise every elf has sclera and iris in the eyes, even if pupils are somewhat missing. What we get ingame looks like something stolen from a DEEP-SEA FISH!
- raging lack of skin tones (aquaman, midnight sky and deathknight pale? lol) and hairstyles
- all faces are UGLY. I really think they even looked better as nightfallen, rather than nightborne. Their faces still look like they’ve been starving for months and their pose only accentuates their absurd chins
- they are forced into Night Elf pose, but their models look more like blood elf models, which makes them look worse than either of those races. Just give them Night elf bodies fully, just as you gave blood elf bodies to void elves
I mean, really, the only things Nightborne have are heritage armor and ear accessories. The rest is really really pitiful.
And that’s not even talking about the male model - they look like any hit in the stomach will BISECT THEM. So frail…

To make it fair lets give nightborne night elf models. Just as alliance got void elves that are going to look more and more like blood elves let us have their night elves as nightborne.
I cant personally even play nightborne because of their manly bodies and horrible faces. Nightborne eyes are horrible too. Would be nice to have somekind of glow on them and more colors.

Giving yet another thing from the other faction is not an answer. The nightborne model has issues and hopefully they will address those when they give the allied races their customization pass.
Just keep things unique to each faction. If you want a night elf then make one on the alliance.

Narrow eye options
-
Borrow some skin colors from the Night elves like Purple, etc.
-
More Hair colors (Purple, Pink, Blue, etc).
-
Heritage armor with pants
They are lacking in customization. I hope more is coming to them in Shadowlands. They are a cool race and have a lot of potential to become better.

Just to correct you, Blood elves aren’t really alliance. We did borrow some skin colors but that’s it. And I do support that Nightborne should borrow some Night elf skin tones too. It would give the race so many skin tones to choose from and overall make the customization better.
We still have our unique hair colors (and a possible black could be added).
We don’t have Green eyes at all, we just have the High elf blue and some purple Voidy eyes. None of which are Horde.
And High elves too. Some from the Silver Covenant are joining.
Blue eyes is a High elf thing (Alliance). They gave it to the Blood elves too so everyone can be High elves on both factions (only we have a more different hair colors that matches the void)
Anyway let’s keep the topic relevant.
It’s just skin colors being asked. Not a big deal. The Nightborne will still be unique and have different color hair, hairstyles, and Tattoos. The skin colors will give the Nightborne so much to choose from. Seeing as we (Void elves) borrowed some Skins from the Blood elves, it’s only fair.

If you were focusing on getting new customization for nightborne you might by now got it.
But instead of that the focus was to forbid others from getting what they want.
As a Nightborne main:
- Eyes, our eyes are eyes of a fish, we looks supper weird, we need to wear heritage armor because it changes the ugly eyes.
Nightborne NPC’s like Thalyssra have more arrowed eyes which makes them more smug and high class as they are should be. - We need new faces, not just new faces but faces that look different, if you go now into nightborne customization you can see couple of faces but they all look the same, literally…You can check it out I’m serious.
- Withered looks, I know lore wise this is not the best…But Nightborne withered look is awesome, and many players love it. It would make Nightborne have something special.
- Skin colors, we only have 3 skin colors right now, which all are super weird, one is too blue, one is night elf, and the other one is literally green like a goblin.

It’s because in the lore we saw some void elves not being completely transformed like Alleria, she can chose if she wants to go into void form or not.
Nightborne and Night Elves are completely different and shouldn’t ever take night elf customization options. They are unique, they have been isolated from world for 10 thousands years, with no food but just arcane addiction…It changed them so much. It’s like asking Blood Elves should have Night Elf customization options.

Well it’s very hard to choose a skin color the Night elves don’t have. Have you seen what they are getting in Shadowlands? Blonde hair, black hair, Yellow eyes, amber eyes, blind eyes, Many more skin colors even light skinned human ones. It’s very hard to be unique from them when they almost have every color you can imagine
Which is why I don’t see why they can’t borrow some. Especially Purple skin And hair can go very well With the Suramar theme

It did, that’s why we don’t look same as Night Elves.

It might not be the answer but it would be fair. Or is it just alliance who should get everything and horde nothing? I’m all for keeping racial identity but that line has been crossed, and if belfs lose their blonde hair to velfs it would be nice to see something more normal on the nightborne too.
Nightborne is lacking in many areas. Faces are bad, hairstyles are bad idle pose is bad…their body is bad and eyes are just horrible. Accessories are way too less as well. I feel like it was just well we have to give horde something race and they just slapped something in the game. If you compare nightborne to velfs and light draenei you see how much nightborne is lacking. I cant compare to the rest of the alliance allied races since i havent unlocked them.
I wanted male get more faces. I don’t like little lips.
NPC’s face was much better.

This , add some different face shape, add some skin color my proposition is some of the Drow elf so dark grey, obsidian( with shades of blue),jet black and some others of course this is just a few proposition.
Add some haircuts and jewelry , some hair color and rework the eyes: not just the color of the iris but also the shape and size of the pupil so different kind of eyes, allow an option for the ears size too please it may not look but it is important !
PLEASE, for the love of everything sacred in this world do not make them look like the freakin kaldorei PLEASE NOOOO !
Like Darmor said if you really want to roll an effin kaldorei… there is (unfortunately for us) the Alliance, and i add it would kill the appeal the Shal’dorei have for them.
If they really do a good job on the Nightborne characters options, since there should be no more requirement to play allied race i would consider playing horde for the first time in 16 years soon and an elve on top of that but that is only IF and a big one !

No.
Your hate for Alliance’s Void Elves wants you to ruin another race and make it an uninteresting copy of already existing race. Void Elves are not that interesting because they look same as Blood Elves, and Nightborne have so much more potential to be different and unique. Don’t ruin it with your Void Elf hatred.
I don’t want more Night Elves wannabe in Horde, I want Nightborne.
