Considering that the Alliance High Elves were more than eager to harass and straight up kill Blood Elves and their leader attempted murder to one of their core leaders in broad daylight, and that all of them were still fresh in the Blood Elves' memory given we have Hathorel - no, reunification will never happen and I prefer it that way

    I mean... I don't know if Silvermoon will go to the Alliance. But since Alleria's return, so many hints have been intentionnally spread by Blizzard.

    Blood elves in Telogrus Rift, Alliance sympathisers in Silvermoon (Why bother mentionning it ? A portion of citizens favoring the ennemy in a Horde capital, what ?), Alleria telling the player she knows Silvermoon will get back in the fold one day, one of Umbric's goals IS to get Silvermoon back into the Alliance.

    "Silvermoon will never be Alliance"

    Yeah. Just like :

    - Alleria will be neutral/Horde
    - Turalyon will be neutral
    - Stromgarde will never be reclaimed by the Alliance
    - Lordaeron will never be touched/conquered/destroyed
    - Void elves will never get fair skin options

    Just wait and see. But I'm fairly confident that void elves led by Alleria will at least try to reclaim it and partially win.

    I do agree with that: When Vereesa says "I believe Blood Elves can still be redeemed" Sylvanas scoffs at it, saying Blood Elves don't need redemption. Indeed, While I was pointing out Vereesa's perspective, it's patently clear Blood Elves themselves -in the majority- are okay with their choices and would echo Sylvanas sentiment on that answer.

    I hardly doubt Blood Elves as a whole would seek redemption because Vereesa -of all people- thinks they should, lol. And I say this as like one of the 3 Vereesa fans. Beyond Halduron, I don't think in game BE's have any love or even respect for her -not like Alleria, we could say-

    Even when I think that Hathorel was meant to portray the extreme -a BE so bent on revenge they willfully throw their lot with Sylvanas even when the rest of the Horde is rebelling- I do agree that reunification is not really on the cards. That being said, I would love an attempt at it that results in failure if it leads to an updated Quel'thalas and a change of the status quo.

    Like I really don't want the reunification itself for many reasons, but I do want to see how an attempt at it would affect elves on both Horde and Alliance, you feel? It makes sense from an in universe motivation and it leads to the updating of the zone that was made 14 years ago, but again I don't agree it should actually end with reunification of all Thalassians in one side. That's a bit I particularly don't get about many people's arguments; the civil war just as means for reunification of thalassians in one side. I see the civil war on itself as the end-goal, as content. Like perfect case scenario a civil war ends with both sides realizing they just can't reunite and setting a new status quo, one where VE and HE actually might settle somewhere else.

    (Like at most I'd be into the alliance taking control of the Ghostlands)

    I do agree that there are hints, but that hints only tell us an attempt will be made, not that it will suceed.

    And honestly just that would be exciting as content; I really don't see what is gained by the Alliance reclaiming Silvermoon from a narrative standpoint; if anything, it would go against the maxim of keeping the faction's power on each continent balanced.

    I mean, I'd prefer if blood elves got dark ranger options to offer them a second visual theme (as some say on the official forums) to match void elves. In saying that though, I'd also prefer that both void elves and blood elves got options that made them unique, rather than homogenizing them. The "natural" hair colors you linked for void elves though imo could work, as they aren't as "light and bright" as the blood elf options and instead have a dulled undertone (which could fit their theme). Again though, I would simply just prefer that each race get their own unique options that delve into the fantasy of said race, rather than homogenization for the sake of options. Options are great, so long as they're meaningful. in WoW, the game is specifically designed around the concept of two factions that are each unique both in theme and visually. That means that the races should have significant differences, rather than being carbon copies, and that race selection should be a meaningful choice (ie do I want to play a "forest elf" on the Alliance or a typical fantasy "high elf" on the Horde)

Overall though, I think Blood Elves need more options period. Compared to other core races, Blood Elves really feel like they got shafted.
    I'd be fine if void elves kept their hair styles unique to them and vice versa for blood elves. I agree though that blood elves are in much need of more options. Tattoos (farstrider and magister) is a good start, runic markings, and dark ranger options. Void elves should get the ear options that blood elves have, and should get jewellery (unique, not the same as blood elves), black + white hair options and a few more hair styles. This is a good start for both races, though given blood elves are the core race they should get the focus first. When it comes to an AR pass (if there is one), then void elves can get some more love (so long as said love does not make them blood elves 2.0).

    I know what you mean, it's just that alliance aligned thalassians are in no position to "uphold supremacy of their people" without the actual help of the Alliance.. in which case it'd be a faction war as opposed to a civil war. And if it were to be a civil war amongst thalassians, it'd be as one sided as a war could get. Blood elves would eradicate the alliance aiigned thalassians.

    But what we do know is that a group of Blood Elves got recently exiled for using Void, AKA the Void Elves, so that's a far more evident argument for their division. I do agree that the animosity is not as high as it was after the Purge of Dalaran, but it's clear that both sides think they are on the right here; with Vereesa believing "BE's can be redeemed" and Alleria outright stating she wants them back on the Alliance, so even if some High Elves have returned to QT -which again, speculation, but likely- doesn't reflect a large scale road to reunification under the Horde.
    There is a blood/high elf who received the new purple eyes. These eyes were specifically stated to be a bug causing female high elf NPCs eyes to change from blue to purple. When the bug was fixed the same NPC (can't remember her name) had her eyes change from purple to blue (same as every other female high elf NPC), indicating that she is actually a high elf NPC in the game files. Now this is nothing breaking, nor is it confirmation of anything, it's just another piece of information that can be used (along with recent blizzard statements) to presume that high elves could indeed be reuniting with their kin in Silvermoon. I mean, not every high elf is a die hard alliance "fan boi", there are many high elves who are/were neutral or in some cases downright hostile toward the Alliance. It isn't unreasonable to assume that they're rejoining their kin in their native homeland. It's not a reflection of reunification under the Horde, but rather a path toward high elves being absorbed by blood/void elves storywise moving forward.

    I really wish they'd be ballsy, and give the alliance Silvermoon and Suramar - let the blood elves and nightborne become remnant elven races on the horde. Horde doesn't need them any more really, at least doesn't need them having both the kaldorei and Thalassian civilizations while the original incarnations of those races on the alliance are remnants - with the alliance itself ever increasingly shrinking to the horde on all levels of the elder game.

    Elves are a great alliance asset, and the one race the alliance cares most about - i never see alliance making a fuss about forsaken, orcs, Tauren, trolls, goblins, Pandas etc, only elves, because they were established on the alliance first, and the alliance has seen first the legacy of the high elves given tot he horde, then shockingly a repeat in 7.3.5 when the legacy of the night elves and their pre-sundering civilization was also given tot he horde.

    Face it, after Zuldazar, and the ever increasing gap between horde and alliance, the horde doesn't need the leg up of the alliance elves.

    My opinion is that to boost the alliance and re-establish it as well as increase a love for it, the elves on the alliance should now rise to prominence, and it should be at the expense of the horde elves, they should suffer a blow and diminish on the horde.

    How it Happens
    They can do that by losing both Silvermoon and Suramar, and it should happen by a large chunk of the Sin'dorei choosing to identify with their high elf heritage, feeling they have sufficiently mourned the dead, and that the horde and it's ideals really aren't for them.

    For the Nightborne, they should show how the Nightborne really viewed the genocide and burning of Teldrassil, and how alarmed they became at the horde they'd signed up to, and became increasingly disenfranchised. Furthermore, when the Arcan'dor started reversing the Nightwell changes in many Nightborne in particular the ones born kaldorei, and their kaldorei appearance started returning, blood elven horde zealots started treating them with discrimination and disdain as they were the kaldorei refugees that the Nightborne were friendly with after their help in 7.0

    So with the majority of Nightborne now kaldorei again , Suramar chose the alliance and strengthening ties with the kaldorei on the broken isles, which is their heritage, this caused friction with blood elven horde zealots, who polarised the issue, resulting in a few younger Nightborne resenting their kaldorei heritage and seeking artificial arcane methods to retain their Nightborne mutation, which they succeed with, these remain on the horde , but are now at odds with the majority of the city and go to Kalimdor to establish more Nightborne colonies. They are rather disgusted by the choice of most of the others, and don't really care to return to Suramar, vowing to create something newer and much more special.

    This is in contrast to the blood elves, who eventually get expelled due to breaking the peace, they vow to cease Silvermoon back and purge every elf that refuses to conform. These blood elves are passionate about the horde, and view the philosophies and ideologies of the high elf and alliance far too restrictive - which is a funny one given how liberal the alliance is on many areas of research, but what they are really saying is that the pursuit of absolute power for absolute control which is very much against the alliance philosophy but very much part of the horde is what they identify with the most.

    Consequences

    - The horde carries on but with the identity of the orcs, trolls, tauren, goblins, even pandas becoming far stronger and prominent. With developmenet on the elves ceasing, blizzard compensates by developing core horde races more. Think a Pandaren city, more troll tribes and sub-races coming in with the their cities.

    - The better alliance elves boosts the alliance population, it makes alliance lovers happier about the faction and htose on the horde who went their for the leves return, this will lower the horde population a little and boos the alliance some more.

    - The alliance actually becomes really attractive again - cos face it, humans being amazing hasn't done it for the alliance, and dwarves, draenei, gnomes, worgen etc as nice as they are to niche groups really aren't loved enough to amke any differnece if they are further boosted. It's the elves - the night, high, void elves that need to be amazing.

    - Overall I think both the alliance and horde would be better for this. Horde will feel more horde and less elven both in terms of elf lore presnece and elf player presence, whiles the alliance would feel more whole, more traditionally alliance in a way the alliance will appreciate, while the horde core would love their idneitty restored.

    - Horde elves will still exist, blood elves and nightborne are still on the horde, they just don't have major assets and aren't playing massive roles like before, they now play similar roles to what the void elves are currently, a small niche powerful group bringing something very differnet, but in small quantities.

    - Alliance gains two amazing elven cities, the horde gains 4 new cities, Zul'drak, Zul'aman, Zul'Farak and a new Pandaren city in addition to several new blood elf towns in Azshara zone and Nightborne ones in Desolace, and a horde Pandaren city. Mag'har develop a city in Borean Tundra, but so do the Lightforge in dalaran crater recreating Aucnidouin - so alliance improvements do spill over to some of their other races.

    The Alliance having in the same time Suramar, Silvermoon, and de facto Dalaran would be super boring imo.

    Suramar needs to stay Horde. But Dalaran needs to go on the Alliance again. And Silvermoon should be contested.

    Blood elves are so hypocritical on that matter. "Human r evil blabla but can we stay in Dalaran plz ?"

    Tbh, Suramar doesnt need to stay horde at all it's the kaldorei civilization, horde already have the civilisation of the trolls and all their playable races, why do they need the civilization of the night elves too?
    They dont..

    Further to that I would re establish the high elves and give Silvermoon to the alliance, replacing its presence on the horde with Zul'aman and Zul'drak - elevating trolls on the horde and reducing elves to a remnant. As it should be.

    In time, several expansions into the future, the remnant blood elf and exile nightborne can build something cool if blizzard feel the horde needs elves again to grow, but I think relying on elves for the horde isn't good for their faction nor its identity and flies in the face all the things they profess they want to achieve by having two separate factions maintaining the original heart of the factions.

    I could understand it when the horde were vastly outnumbered, but it seems silly to continue especially when the reverse is true at end game, and the alliance is the one vastly outnumbered.

    The horde should keep blood elves and nightborne only in name and model and lose everything else about them to the alliance . It fits if we are honest, the Thalassian and kaldorei kingdoms really arent needed on the horde, they are necessary on the alliance though, the elves are the only race the alliance cares about and the core horde fans really want their influence rid off and restored to the core horde races which the elves aren't really, just like the alliance want the restoration of the strong alliance core races which includes the high elves and the kaldorei.

    At this point its unnecessary for the horde to have the night elves' and high elves' civilization and both alliance and the horde would fair better with them replaced. On the horde, they will fair better by the elven influence and infrastructure of the blood elf and nightborne replaced by horde races like trolls and orcs/pandas etc getti g more cities and assets to replace the elven ones lost to the alliance, while the alliance will fair better with their high elves and night elves actually shining once more on their faction..

    Only the horde elf fans would complain, but it would cause a few of them to return to the alliance where they should be if elves is what they love boosting alliance numbers a little, and for those of them who hate the alliance, well, they fit nicely with the alliance hating remnant blood elves and nightborne who would still be on the horde, forever resenting the high elves and night elves for gaining their stuff back which is what you want in faction enmity.

    Horde becomes more horde, alliance becomes es more alliance, and all it toom was to reverse the horde elf push funny that huh

    The problem here is that alliance dont view it as horde stuff.


    If it was orcs, troll, tauren, goblin stuff this argument wont exist. But you are talking g aniut the home of the high elves and the kaldorei civilization, in particular the very one Tyra de, Malfurion, Jarod and Maiev all come from being horde, it doesnt sit with alliance fans for obvious reasons.

    As long as the high elvrs and night elvrs are better on the hordr tha on the alliance, you will always get this because it feels like stealing alliance stuff and giving it to the horde and making it better to either make alliance jealous or get them to play horde.

    Neither of which makes sense any more.

    Alliance dont have this issue over any other race on the horde. It's bad enough that blizzard gave the horde alliance races, but they made them better on the horde than on the alliance and kept tunnelling the best stuff to them.


    So right now the horde have:
    1. All the civilizations of the main horde races.
    2. Share the civilization of the humans via the forsaken
    3. Also have the civilization of the night elves

    And wonder why the alliance is been abandoned and alliance fans are not happy at all about said alliance when stuff like this happens

    It's difficult to do so when Horde players are used to share and/or destroy all the stuff the Allliance has. That's said, Suramar should stay Horde.

    Gilneas is contested. Dalaran is lolneutral. Theramore is gone.

    Stromgarde was a really good improvement though. I hope more will come. Dalaran needs to land off to Hillsbrand once and for all.

    And since the crown of Menethil is now officially in the Alliance's hands, I really hope Turalyon will take Lordaeron back.

    People in this thread need to understand the thought process of a professional writer:

    - Alleria wants to reclaim Silvermoon.
    - Umbric wants to reclaim Silvermoon.
    - Vereesa wants to reclaim Silvermoon.
    - Many in Silvermoon want to rejoin the Alliance.
    - The Void Lords want Alleria to reclaim Silvermoon.
    - Turalyon wants to reclaim former Alliance holdings, like they did with Stromgarde in BfA.

    Like, the set-up is so obvious. People need to understand that writers NEVER do things randomly. There is HEAVY foreshadowing for a MASSIVE Thalassian civil war. The writers did not have several characters mention their desire to reclaim Silvermoon for fun. They did that because they are setting something up. And what could that "something" be? Hmm...

    Exactly this.

    Also a line from Alleria that was removed from the PTR when Lor'Themar tells Alleria to "Go back to Stormwind. Silvermoon is no longer your home"

    "For now" as if at that moment she knew she would come back one day.
    I think it was too obvious for what is to come so they decided it was better to remove that line.
