The Night Elf Heritage armor has received further updates, removing the shoulder strap over the chest piece for the female version of the armor, creating a more distinct look from the male version of the set. We previously noted that the shoulder strap of the old chest piece fit incorrectly on the female version of the armor, sticking up above the shoulder — turns out that's because it wasn't their intended look after all! Interestingly, their chest armor seen now isn't actually new, it was there before, but simply covered by the shoulder strap.
It also may not be complete, as this chest piece is simply a «painted» on texture, lacking the 3d features of most newer armor pieces, as seen below. Note that the female chest piece lacks 3rd elements, and therefore may still be receiving future changes.
Males will continue to use their shoulder strap without the underlying textures. Click the images below to enlarge and compare the old and new versions of each set below! Old (left) to new (right) versions of the female Night Elf Heritage Armor.
