Official High Elf Discussion Megathread

[Rhlor]

I am not sure man...they become void elves during that. High elf costumization is just that, but green still indicate you are currently a blood elf. That is just not what you are playing when clicking void elf.

Uh, you can link it to demon hunters now, but thats not fair, as these eyes are full on fell and are linked to that class, this is also indicated fueled with fell. Blood elves had exposure, which is just a hue really and can wear off. So technically its not true. But ye.. I could see more people say this.

I agree we should main differences, I think that is not hard to do, but this isnt helping blood elves, who havent gotten anything compared to void elves, sharing isnt perse in good spirit with the blood elves, as there barely is anything left. That is not good. Both have their own styles. Its more about maintaining their own uniqueness and their own selling point, then blantly copy paste. But So far its just been that sadly.

This is just my opinion, but we also see NPCs in Telogrus with green eyes.

I think the difference should be light vs. void.

[Alanar]

oh, i can spin thus further!

There is no spin, You brought up Valeera, so I though I remind you of her special character and bond with varian. You tried to make a point with her, but failed. Why name all those examples? We have tons of weird cases, doesnt help the case here.

I mean did you read it or? It gives you an explanatiom of the eyes. Same as how blood elves and high elves are there in the process of.

We already talked about the tatoos and all the stuff. I had many more ideas, which I replied to you already.

If its tons of cases, it is no longer something weird, but a trend. Ignoring it doesn't make it go away. Factions are a thing for the past, things will move beyond that.

No one is ignoring that or saying that. You just use it in a wrong way.

The thing is, it doesnt help you case. Because, basically everyone who we have seen is working with the blood elves currently. It doesnt need Valeera to do so.

Factions will stay, it is again boiling in the backround and mostly, its just a big part of wow. I can only say, keep dreaming on that.

Old thing..

Ye, its been both from the very beginning. Old news.

Although they were not recruiting necessarily, they were open to those who share similar interests, and their research had even attracted other Thalassian elves to Telogrus, such as blood elf Silvermoon scholars and high elf wayfarers curious to learn more about the Void from their transformed kin.

@Rhlor, its not based on opinions.

[Tourmaline]

2 named Alliance blood elves on Telogrus Rifht. They say the blood elves betrayed the Alliance by joining the Horde.

In Midnight, Alliance-flagged blood elves are running in the Portal Room, taking the portal to Silvermoon or coming out of it.

In Telogrus there is a Void Elf named Lyria Skystrider. Is that who you mean? She can be mistaken for a Blood Elf if you aren't paying attention to the hair style and don't have the sound on when clicking on her. She has a Void Elf voice and uses the Void Elf hair style named "Scandal". Scandal is very similar to the Blood Elf "Parted Long" hair style. Ennas Faithfallen talks about Silvermoon betrayal, but he also uses a Void Elf voice and hairstyle.

You are right about the golden eyed Alliance elves running out of the Silvermoon portal. I submitted a bug report, hopefully they'll fix it.

In Midnight, pure High elves are using void elves hairstyles. So that's not a proof of them being void elves.

They're not from Midnight, they're from the Xal storyline at the end of DF. They have Void Elf voices.

[MyWholeLifeIsThunder]

I think they mean Silver Covenant High Elven NPC's using VE hairstyles as well as BE ones. They showed up in TWW on the shore and later Dornogal, and now on Midnight on Silverglad Refuge.

They made the claim that there were "Alliance Blood Elves" in Telogrus, specifically pointing to some named Elves that do not have the original Void Elf colouring.

I pointed out that they are not BE due to using VE assets and that they use VE voices. They then tried to use the Silver Covenant members using VE assets in Midnight as an example.

Yes, there are Silver Covenant HE using VE assets, that is not in question. The NPCs in question on Telogrus slightly predate them, they were added in 10.2.7.

In addition, all of the HE using VE assets in TWW and Midnight have the same voices as BE. The Elves in Telogrus that they tried to claim were "Alliance Blood Elves" use the VE voice that has the echo.

Here is their original comment:

You don't seem to be aware that there have been Alliance blood elves in Telogrus Rift since TWW and that they are present in the beta right now. Alliance flagged blood elves are present in Stormwind

Except that it's not about coloring and/or voices.

These blood elves are real blood elves. They were introduced first 20 years ago in TBC Silvermoon.

They just chose the Alliance over the Horde and that's it.

Shared thalassian customisation is comming so we Alliance will be able to play Alliance blood elves.

Nah, it was about blood elves being there according to some guy, green eyes, hair styles what ever. The thing is, some clearly missed that they have been there since the beginning. Not since tww, no before that. It doesnt mean anything more then we already know, void elves were either of them before they become void elves.

They were Blood Elves. They are now Void Elves. Just like the original Void Elves, they are no longer Blood Elves. They use the Void Elf voice. If they were simply Blood Elf defectors, they would have the same voice that all High Elves and Blood Elves use.

They added new NPCs to Telogrus in 10.2.7 taking advantage of the new VE cosmetic options added in Shadowlands. They also show new VE recruits being trained, and former Blood Elves that transformed since BFA.

Still Blood Elves.

Midnight also features High Elves using the new Blood Elf voice set (see Rellian), so this proves nothing.

There are currently no known Void Elves with green eyes.

That's because he is no longer a high elf, he has left the Sons of Lothar and rejoined his blood elf brethren. Politically, he is a blood elf now.

There are Alliance blood elves now.

Being politically a blood elf means nothing now.

Did Eitrigg left the Horde when he joined the Sons of Lothar ? He didn't.

What I mean is, the blood elves you see and are mentioned here, are there, like the high elves who are interested in the void elves and their teachings. Its to showcase that both are there. Likely to become a void elf themselves.

Alliance blood elves is a fun meme, but saying this, means you dont get what they are doing there. Blood elves these days all comes down to a political difference vs high elves. as it always was. The Green eyes are from the bc days, but can wear off as it is a hue. That was the only real visible difference. Void elves are the only real different ones and that is what comes next for those who are interested in the void.

And they'll be Void Elves after they turn, just like all the others. You are grasping at straws trying to find any evidence that BE customization will he shared with VE. There is little to none of that.

If it happens cool, but right now we have idle speculation and that's about it.

But who said they would turn into void elves? What if they don’t want to? Is it because Alliance blood elves are illegal?

[BaumanKing]

Did Eitrigg left the Horde when he joined the Sons of Lothar ? He didn't.

Fair point. I guess we'll have to wait and see what kind of story Rellian gets in Midnight, if any.

[TheProphetLord]

Nothing in the State of Azeroth or even a tease.

Not even a thing on potential Paladins for the Void Elves.
