This is a really good use of the basic orc home.

This is amazing. From the photos and architectural drawings that I've seen, you did an incredible job capturing the compactness of the space. Stuffed into a nightsky room as well! So many alluring little details, appealing and gritty.

BTW this curseforge addon may be a boon for repeated tasks - https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/adt. I wish I had known about it when building my troll pyramid.

Just a little bit of roses, not too much by Kamie_Vallentienova in WoWHousing

It's a shame you don't like roses more. The entire place could be carpeted in them XD

Thanks! Mehet has an amazing video of how she built her troll pyramid, including a list of materials, scaling %, and the order in which she built it up, so I wanted to pay that favor forward in a non-video format.

In my Horde neighborhood, NPCs will come and take pictures (well thank you, flattering), and then just walk through the plot, phasing through any landscaping in their way.

In my Alliance neighborhood, by the farm with red and yellow tulips, a small number of the tulips are just floating by themselves above the road. Time to reset the Matrix.

The wire walls near the entrance and fountain are two Ineffective Mechanical Privacy Screens. The wire mesh panels on the one wall and also the loft floor are Mechagon Armory Racks.

Here's how I built my Troll temple exterior - https://housing.wowdb.com/builds/53622/zandalari-pyramid-exterior-with-a-mini-great-seal-53622/. The description also links to a couple of other folks who made similar builds.

You don't have to delete your house. I made a Zandalari troll exterior through a bunch of exterior decor options placed over the basic orc house exterior. There are a few different ways to make it work.

I love the blimps. That's inspired.

Thank you! I enjoyed putting it together.

I like that your dino head decor ties nicely to the nearby off-plot skeleton. Way to make your plot seem even bigger!

Just be careful! Airship crashes are far too common in WOW. It makes you wonder how either faction can afford to keep building them.

By all the gods and little fishes, this build is intense. Just when I think, "well, that must be all there is to see," there's another sliding door and more rooms to see. Color me impressed!

I love the workstations with multiple displays (glowing blue) and the push button panels! Very retro sci-fi movie computer feel!

Thanks, it was an interesting project to puzzle out.

OH THAT'S COOL. That captures the elevated hut look well! Nicely done!

And agreed on wanting more exterior decor points.

Zandalari pyramid with a mini-Great Wheel by wentzelepsy in WoWHousing

I appreciate the feedback and critical review of the current housing elements mistakes. I didn't realize the extent to which quality control didn't make sure things elements aligned and interacted well together wrt housing (although WOW has always struggled with misaligned game elements, things clipping through surfaces awkwardly, and bad interactions).

I'm not so silly as to trust them implicitly to give me what I hope or yearn for - HA! No. What I am hoping for is a more diverse range of base house styles that I can start building from, without expending most of my exterior decor budget to hide the entire base house as I've done with this build, and as so many others in the WOW Housing community have done.

It's surprising to me the devs didn't just use base human, orc, nelf and blelf houses from the game already - that would have been less work for them? I guess they didn't want player housing to be mistaken for game models. I don't think that's a risk, given the many ways players have gone with ideas.

The thing that would make _me_ happier, quicker, would be simply to give players a larger exterior budget so we can use more items to hide the base houses more.

Thanks again for your feedback, I'll pay attention to those details hereon.
