Class skins have my vote.
So many race/class combos with deep lore and nothing to show in-game.
Off the top of my head, I can think of Night Elf Priest and Blood Elf Mage as two, who have no true visual representation in-game.
Night Elf Priests should have the white line of Elune
Blood Elf Mage should have “pheonix” based spells.
People who want to use void elves to role play a non void high elf got love.
We didn’t get any void related options added.
Those that like the void theme got nothing.
Well, we did get the option to change ear sizes.
Nothing to do with being a void elf but was a nice thing to be added.
(Yes I know I benefited since I have orange hair. But I think it works for void elves)
This comment is regarding new race/class combos. Not about new void-based features for the void elves.
Of which, I don’t think we should be in a hurry to see Void Elf Paladins, Druids and Shamans (Nightborne, the same), but we should aim for Void Elf and Nightborne Demon Hunters along with Night Elf Paladins.
Blood Elves are getting new lore, plus an additional transmog plate set, so we’re covered on that front. (Not that we ever needed Blood Elf Shamans or Druids anyway.)
There is the Temple of Elune in Darnassus occupied by Night elf priestesses, but nothing else unfortunately. And with Darnassus now burnt to the ground there’s nothing of that left unless you speak to Coridormi to view the old city.
Also the MMO-C leak speaks of a Warden skin for DHs, though it sounds unlikely.
I’m thinking a bit outside the box so the 1st thing I’d love to see for Night elves is a new Night elf capital that will be top notch with its inns and shops and temples, the full package
And I’m hoping for a new Night Elf rig as well. A reworked model that will not have those rough edges and much better faces. Male Nelf arms will not look bulky, and stationary battle stance will not move about like an odd marionette.
That way maybe the Nightborne model can be revisited as well for some fixes. I’ve heard the NPC models’ postures are pretty popular?
Yep, aside from the white, black and orange hair and the ear sizes, I agree. Have you seen the Starcursed skin and hair variations by Aceline? As well as these DOPE Void ears??
I was just talking as a general thing, that void elves haven’t really gotten any attention from blizzard to enhance them as void elves.
So they shouldn’t be ruled out as having gotten attention already. Because it was only high elf fans that got that.
I would love void elf demon hunters.
I feel it would really suit them.
Plus having only one race on each faction that can be one is really restrictive
I wouldn’t dismiss the latest Void Elf customizations as something that was made exclusively for “High Elf” fans - many Void Elf fans were also looking forward to regular customizations. Just because they weren’t void-based customizations doesn’t mean Void Elves didn’t get any attention from Blizzard.
I am personally grateful to Blizzard for those customizations. And sure, I’m also hoping they give us some more options to further enhance the Void aspect of the race.
I mean, that was kind of expected, right? Customizations will come in a future, be it in 9.2.5 or in some future minor patch in Dragonflight.
YES! We must never forget what Blizzard did for the Void / High elves in SL. Regular skin colours, and a variety of natural hair colors, several of which as you said can be used for the Void aspect as well. Such as White, black, orange, red, and even blonde! So THANK YOU devs for your decision to give us the above! We are Grateful!
And I sincerely apologise for sometimes coming out as greedy and focusing more on the negatives.
The only problem I see here is that they restricted the new Class to just 1 race, and from what I understood, they seem to be placing all of their cards in that new class/ race, with lots of customization development time invested in it. That means that players may lose out on development time on customization for their own favourite races that are currently playable in-game. And that is quite a few races.
We will wait for the next news concerning patch 9.2.5, the DF pre-patch, pre-order bonuses, etc… there will be other surprises to discover before the arrival of the next extension.
Hope there’s something good in store for us. I feel we are so behind compared to blood elves, night elves and humans in customization when we are such a popular race currently catering to two different fanbases (high elf and void elf fans). I also feel both Void elves and Nightborne are a bit limited in their class choices.
Nothing to promise yet, but they want to work towards a place where race isn’t a limiting factor. But the timeline is something they’ll have to be flexible on. A lot of the classes have a lot of content and lore requirements like for Paladin and Warlock.
In 10.0 Rogues, Mages and Priests available for all races.
that horde gets ahead on Rogue, Priest now with Tauren Orc being able to be it blizzard will see 90% playerbase going horde due to racials being to good…
There’s also very active topic over US about more customization for void elves. These mounts look very awesome and more customization options would be welcomed.
