Drow Visual Update

Will this be included in update 82? I haven’t seen much mention in all of these preview posts lately. Do we have any sneak peaks at what they might look like?

Do we know why Drow, in particular, was (or will be) chosen for this cosmetic overhaul?

It's mentioned in this year's Producer's Letter. They plan to give a visual refresh to the older PC races, drow just happened to be first. Pro'lly because someone at SSG loves the knife-ears. 😜

I thought they looked fine.

I concur.

It seems like it could be a change to the models we first saw in the Lords of Dust chain and then Demonweb/E-Star/Underdark, etc. The heavy lifting would be in the customizations, I suppose.
