Void Elf Hair Colour Suggestions

I don’t know why everyone thinks that when Blizzard add customizations in the future, they will focus on one allied race and ignore the rest. That is False.

The only reason Void elves got some stuff early along with the core races is because the stuff they got is already in the game, a copy paste process. Nothing new. It’s also to keep things cool, I mean can you imagine the anger if Blood elves got blue eyes and alliance Didn’t? It would be a slap to the face to the long awaited 16 year Helf request. The forums and Reddit would explode from complaints. So they gave it to both factions which include Void elves .

So when Allied races get a customization update, most likely they will focus on ALL allied races, including the Void elves. Since Void elves didn’t get anything (new), especially when it comes to hair customizations they got nothing at all.

Telling us to wait and to not suggest anything is kinda weird, considering that what we suggest won’t take away the focus on the Nightborne customizations. When Allied races customizations comes ALL allied races will get a proper customization treatment, including Void elves.

It’s not like there aren’t any people suggesting Nightborne stuff. Thanks to Luna who posts suggestions on Reddit and the Forums , Nightborne fans are heard loud and clear. I’m sure 9.1 or 9.2 will prove my point. In fact, Luna’s Nightborne posts get more likes than the Void elf ones.

The fact we are asking for hair colours and styles does not invalidate the customization of Nightborne, or that of LFD, or Vulpera, or anyone’s customization for that matter. Like Jakafo said, all should receive customizations, not just Nightborne. Behind the queue on Nightborne I agree.

I’d love to see a pure white colour - that would really cool with the void skin tones.

Black would look really cool too!

Can’t wait to see what they come up with for allied races!

Actually, let us be brutally honest here. That is what historically -happened- Or do you think they paid equal attention to every other Allied race, that they did to Void Elves? do you think they paid the same attention to Blood Elves and Draenei, as they did to other core races?

It isn’t a weird thing to say when the only example of these customisations provided us with 100% of our understanding as to how they work.

I mean that is literally how it works. You go by the historical precedent as your source of data, as anything else is just hypothesis. Void Elves got a lot more than other Allied Races, and moreover, more -drastic- changes which allow them to resemble an entirely different race.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t get light hair, in fact I have always been on record as saying that it wouldn’t bother me. I am saying it wouldn’t kill their fanbase to actually show a little fairness and wait for the other Allied races to get similar treatment, before charging on ahead with more demands, as at this rate we’ll end up with Void Elves looking Identical to High Elves (Which I’m fine with) High Elf Fans still screaming for High Elves as a separate Allied race because it says ‘Void Elf’ on their screen (I wish I was making that up) and Nightborne sitting there going "Gee, sure would be nice if they could actually -FINISH- designing our models so that we look like what we’re supposed to in game, rather than just throwing everything at Void Elves.

Have a little patience.

Blood Elf fans and Draenei fans are having to be patient in waiting for all the unique customisations we were promised, I am sure Void elf fans can exhibit the same patience.

Would probably have been a more convincing idea, if they had done that with the last customisation update, where they emphatically did -Not- focus on all ALL allied races, or even for that matter ALL Core races either.

Be patient. And if you genuinely think this is them listening to people wanting High Elves after 16 years then can I make a request, for the sanity of these forums? That you actually tell the people who say they would campaign for a High Elf Allied Race -EVEN- if Void elves could like identical to just shut their yap and accept that they have High Elves. Seriously, I will be so annoyed on my Alliance side, if We get Void Elves who look identical to High Elves (Which is fine) and then a -separate- Allied Race called High Elves who look identical.

That is legitimately what some people want.

Do you see why people get a little bit squirrelly when Void Elf fans want more stuff all the time? We already had a bloke making a thread about how the Void Elves should get Quel’thalas, Silvermoon and Suramar, and a lot of Void Elf fans agreeing with him.

You see how bad that looks?

Blonde hair is sensible, sure, Give Void Elves Blonde Hair, and Blood Elves Ranger Warpaint. Blood Elf Hairstyles for Void Elves are sensible, Sure, Give Void Elves that, and give Blood Elves Arcane runic Tattoos.

Quid pro quo.

If Void Elves get Blood Elf stuff, and Blood Elves get nothing, then it makes the Void Elves a race of petulant thieves, who just want everything on a plate.

So why not both? Everything the Void Elves get from the Blood Elves, the Blood Elves get something -actually interesting this time Blizzard!- that is exclusive to them.

That is, after all… only fair.

I am… You are talking to fans who waited 16 Years so I’m sure I can wait a few more time. No worries, for me at least.

I was just saying Suggesting customizations doesn’t equal to being impatient. It’s just a suggestion. Since a month ago blizzard said in an interview that they are not done with customizations and they are listening to the fans, so what better time to suggest than now? So they have an idea about what we want and hopefully add it in the future.

All I want is a Black hair color, which believe it or not is already in the Void elf files… it’s just not available for players. Only NPC’s. So it’s very easy to add. It’s not creating anything new, hence they can easily focus on adding stuff for the Nightborne.

Blood elves are free to ask for Customizations too. Every race can suggest stuff. And you know I am a supporter of that. I made threads asking for Red eyes and Ranger tattoos for blood elves before

And I made threads supporting the Nightborne too.

Jakafo, it’s good to add the rest of the hair colours that have been discussed in the posts as well. Like white, blonde and pastel pink. Saying you only wish for black might give the wrong impression. Most of us definitely wish for at least white, black and blonde. I always make sure to include black in them for those who are into a pure black colour, but better to unite and include all the colours that we are all interested in to avoid confusion and drama.

Nah. It’s just what I personally wish for.

Of course everyone has a hair color they want to see. I just stated my own personal opinion.

I don’t mind if they add other colors

why big deal about ur hair color when u have a helmet on covering ur head anyway ? DAHHH ! :rofl:

I never wear a helmet :rofl: :sweat_smile: or at least I do… but it’s…invisible!

I think I will be using a hood if I don’t get any blonde hair lol, x3 different shades of blue and x2 diff shades of grey will not cut it for me - I’m getting a little tired of all those hair colours that are so similar to each other lol

Considering their nature and the void I don’t personally think light is really all that fitting. I would love various shades of pink/purple/blues to give it some greater variety, can even see the logic in a very dark blue almost black.

Not allowed hair dye, only the snippy snip.

Please don’t do this to me. I don’t want to have to switch to Horde just for my hair to look white or blonde. Please support me in this. My fiance told me I speak in my sleep about void elf light hair. Please do not support giving us anymore blues or purples. I beg you. It’s just colours…Don’t do this. Please.

I dont wanna be that guy, especially since I am highly biased when it comes to Belfs and Lore. But it is not unfair whatsoever, since it has to do with the lore. Blood Elves actually tried to get into Alliance but they negotiations failed and Tyrande decided it would be a great idea to invade Quel’Thalas, spy on the Belfs and sabotage them which made Lorthemar stick to The Forsaken and therefore the Horde. So it would not have made sense if the Blood Elves actually joined the alliance, esp with the Night elves in it.

Sorry, the weeb in me was too strong :slight_smile: Hope you get more Customization options, although id dislike the same hair colour and style as belfs because there wouldnt be any difference or special aethetic about both races.

Thanks…my thread was not referring to the lore. And we can be given different hairstyles to you. And many races have white and blonde hair colours, including draenei and dark iron dwarves. So we can take a white and blonde from them, not from Blood elves. But I do not want to play Horde just for blonde hair. I’m a girl and I pay lots of attention to the looks of my characters. If I cannot look like a model in real I would wish to look like one in game, and I cannot achieve that with just blue and grey hair colours. Our greys look fugly while all blood elves can look so bright and pretty. I really do not want to have to switch to Horde. I have 11 chars on Alliance. Makes me want to cry.

I get your point, am a Girl myself. And yes, I just mean Velfs and Belfs share the same model, now if they implemented same hairstyles and colour…well you get my point.

all blood elves can look so bright <

Well , I actually consider Void Elve to be pretty too. That they arent " visually bright"…again lorereasons^^

My problem is that they gave us skins and no hair colours. It’s like waving a bone in front of a dog and never handing that bone to them. The Alliance has been asking for High elves for 14 years in huge High elf megathreads totaling 40000+ responses. The lore can be altered by the devs however they desire, and the blondes and whites would be to cater to the High elf fans, instead of adding a High elf race to Alliance. If I don’t get any white or blonde hair on my character after getting so close I think I’m going to quit the game. I never would have reacted like this if they had not given us the light skin colours. As soon as we got them I was looking for light hair colours and when I found there weren’t any you can imagine my dissappointment. I’ve been playing this game 12 years and have NEVER been so bothered by something in the game before.

Well to be honest ifthey go and change more lore for the sake of visuals it would actually make me quit…again. Yes I quit during BFA due to lore reasons…(burning of teldrassil, even as horde player…couldnt handle Slvanas becoming Garrosh 2.0 and worse). Told ya I am a weeb :smiley:

Well hopefully you get some lighter variations.

Mabe silverish or something.

Thank you. I know I am pathetic but I really care about looks in the game. Everyone plays games for different reasons, one of the reasons I play is because I get to feel like I am deep into a new world, a magestic and great adventure, thinking I am the actual character as I play.
