Heritage Armor sets for the OG's

[Gen4Glock21]

Simple question have they abandoned the heritage armor sets for the original races, Orcs, Humans, Night Elfs, Undead, etc? or was that never going to be a thing?

[Clone]

Probably. Humans and orcs were likely low on the priority list seeing as how most armors were made to fit humans, and orcs have various sets from WoD and BfA season 1. Night elves and undead also recently got some themed sets from warfronts.

They made a comment at Blizzcon that they were still working on them just that they aren't front line and center. Which they stated was going to be the case when they first started. It was going to be a slow and gradual process that took awhile.

Not abandoned, no, but clearly not a priority, but we won't bee seeing any more this exp I'd wager

Maybe on 9.3.5 after the final content patch on the earliest

Probably something like this.

I would assume for Pandaren, Draenei and Darkspear next.

Then it'll be a tossup for Night Elves, Orcs, Forsaken and Humans since warfront armor. Even though I wasn't all that fond of the pink and urine gold sets the Darkshore warfront gave me.

[Caerule]

It sounds like they'll just keep it until they actually have a story to tell with those races.

Like, eventually the Night Elves and Forsaken are getting a new home. It makes sense to tell their racial story then, with the Heritage Armor as a reward.

But it's harder to explain why they would wait with a race like Orcs, Humans or Trolls.

To be fair, I'm surprised they don't have some kinda heritage story to tell for Trolls and Night Elves tied to Ardenweald. Bwonsamdi, Mueh'zala, Tyrande, etc.

I badly want a heritage armour for my Darkspear boi

You deserve it. Been a long time since jungle trolls got any mog other than shammies. (T21) Probably TBC.

I know people will say Zandalar had a lot of troll gear, but Zandalari and Darkspear styles differ enough.

[Nize]

Yeah Darkspear and Draenei should definitely be next. Warfront armor really really fits the other 4 races just fine that even if they opted to not release heritage armor for those, it would be okay. Though I think they should figure out a way to make that armor obtainable outside of warfronts.

Not abandoned, just, sometime in the future as a statement.

We're currently missing for:
Orcs
Trolls
Undead
Humans
Night Elves
Draenei
Pandaren

[Hastis]

i expect for trolls and draenei i would left orcs, undeads, humans and night elves for the last one because of warfronts, pandaren wll get alone cuz its neutral faction so both of us gets it

[Varodoc]

Heritage armor for core races? I'm still waiting for Heritage weapons for the Void elves:



What even happened to these datamined weapons? Why wouldn't Blizzard put them in the game?

[LemonDemonGirl]

I wish Hertiage Armor had diffrent recolors too. I just don't think my Zandalari Shaman looks good in red. I'd like dark blue or black tbh

[PingPong]

still waiting on the troll one just hope I don't need to wait till vol'jin come back from being a loa

[shoc]

Warfront Armor is much better than Heritage Armor, talk about a literal non-issue.

Humans, Orcs, Night Elves and Forsaken aren't 'left behind' they are way ahead, they got 3x4 sets of Armor + Weapons of every type.
Compared to the 1x set of Armor and no weapons, it's the races that got Heritage armors instead of Warfront sets that got screwed.

Draenei and Trolls are the only real losers right now.

No, you are.

I'm still so ambivalent about the Night Elf Warfront armors; there were some good ideas there, but I really don't like any of them as a whole :/

Both NB and LFD Heritage sets already have recolors on the files, and we have literally see it implemented on Maghar. It's something that really should be done across the board, I really don't get the lack of consistency in things like this.

I’m sure they’re going to do it at some point, but it’s clear that it’s not a priority. Maybe they save heritage armor for a later patch on the (questionable?) assumption that it would help sub retention. Maybe they just don’t want to prioritize having their art team work on it yet when there’s still more work to do on Shadowlands content.
