BfA adds new Blood Elf eyes and new models

Blood Elf Paladins in World of Warcraft are drawing upon the power of the Sunwell, but they still have the same fel-green eyes as ever But you may not have that restriction in Battle for Azeroth. The latest alpha build of the expansion has added in three faces with golden eyes to the character creator, allowing you to go for a bit more of a light-touched look if you so desire. It’s a heretofore unannounced change, but a welcome one.

The latest build also includes the usual array of ability changes as well as new models and art assets; there’s also a new set of achievements rewarding the first hundred players to defeat raid bosses on Mythic difficulty. Those achievements are per faction, though, so the race is not against both sides (useful if there’s a faction imbalance). The alpha seems to be humming along nicely, then, even with the unexpected additions.
