Brooooooooo, it would be SIIIIIIIIIIIICK if Blood elves could get customizations like Kael'thas has there, I always wanted the whole San'layn / Blood mage look. That is so cool.
The only issue I have with undead skin on blood elves is that would be available for paladins as well, which makes very little sense. While there are undead using Light, they are extreme rare exceptions.
Dark ranger customization is basically only red eyes + undead skin, so san'layn would not need to have anything special to fullfil this fantasy other than hunter and rogue class. New updated vampiric skin would be cool.
Not High Elf news, but seems all the DK hair colors will be freed to all classes! That's just awesome for more options all around, and it interestingly also overlaps more the options between BE and VE, with shades of blue now available to both not only as DK's.
TBH, if I didn't enjoy autumnal aesthetics so much on Blood Elves, I might use blue/silver hair on one of mine.
Indeed, but so far nothing on that, just that BE DK hairs are now available to all classes. Just pointing out there's no a bigger overlap of blue-ish hair in VE/BE.
But I do think that lifting such hair color restrictions for all races bids well to what options we will get when AR get updated.
Where exactly did you see this is for sure happening? Last I saw was players lamenting that they took DK hair colors away from non-DK Night Elves. I mean, I hope you're right, I really do, I just want to see where you saw this is actually going to happen (was it a twitter post or something?).

That's so cool, a sharing of hair colors between blood elves / void elves now please Blizz !
For 3 years I have fought so that void elves could have pink skin tones like Alleria. Now I shall fight so that void elves can have blonde hair options like Alleria. The fight to look like Alleria will never end. We are going after the braids once the blonde hair is available.
The Void. A force of infinite hunger. Its whispers have broken the will of dragons... and lured even the titans' own children into madness. Sages and scholars fear the Void. But we understand a truth they do not. That the Void is a power to be harnessed... to be bent by a will strong enough to command it. The Void has shaped us... changed us. But you will become its master. Wield the shadows as a weapon to save our world... and defend the Alliance!
French with the link!
I had seen Ion's tweet about it myself but didn't hunt it down to source it; figured it was going to spread since since it came from himself, and here it is!
But yeh, the loosening of aesthetic restrictions is just great, and makes me hopeful for the options AR will get when it comes to them.
Honestly I think we will get lot of hair color options with them overall.

It's just kinda silly when you can't replicate the fantasy of your faction leader; that was always a huge issue with Sylvanas, and then they went and did it again with her sister Alleria, lol.
So yeah, I do hope we are allowed to get closer to her look soon, and specially, to see her ranger aesthetics adapted to a Void Elf sensibility -or just as, since it still remains an aspect of Thalassian culture barely touched upon- Would be amazing to see more braided hairstyles, tattoos and feather decorations, but imagine so with a void twist -braids with tentacles, void-feathers and shimmering purple to blue tattoos for example-
Awesome TY! Glad to hear that these options will be available regardless of class!
Now just give DKs two more eye color options, bloody red and unholy green, which get distributed to all the other classes too .
