★ PSA: Void Elf Paladins are justified in the Lore ★

Dunno if anyone has suggested it - but why not just create a special form of Paladin - the Void Paladin.

They are more or less the same as Light Paladins but they draw on the Void rather than the light.

Now that…that would be fun.

And I wonder: What fantasy? Because I guess there have been like 2 or 3 High Elf Paladins (I could be wrong.)

Counting Arathor.

If that’s the case, then people act as if High Elf Paladin are like Draenei Paladins or something when they already have what they wanted, Mage and Hunters.

Why you crip walkin all over my fantasies bruh

It’s about drive it’s about power we stay hungry we devour

-William Shakespeare

I asked the Void what I should eat today and it said “Devour barely canon class+race combinations”.

But the question is legitimate. I’ve seen like two High Elf Paladins. This is almost as non existant as Night Elf Warlocks. It’s not a “Class fantasy”.

Assuming I am not missing many more of them.

I’m the freaking

MAW WALKER

Petty race/class restrictions don’t apply to us, it has already been confirmed our player characters are basically The Messiah

Also OP justification makes sense if Velf Pally doesn’t get to use the void-infused customizations.

There’s nothing stopping a Paladin from using Void magic for power gains, did you not do BFA Corruptions?

Then that applies to me, because I am the Maw Walker. You are a Blood Elf Paladin whose Sunwell hides an old god beneath.

Sorry.

I am a heel. I’d end up cheating and winning with a roll up.

you know… you could just say you want Void Elf Paladins without acting like you care about the lore if you’re gonna go and bend said lore like that :smiley:

No it’s just hard to match the fever pitch breathlessness that the Void elf crowd seems to muster constantly.

I want NE Paladins, there are many many threads about it… it just seems like one of those things that would be a given if blizz found the keys…

No. I’m using Holy spec. Literally. That beats canonically all day. You just got mopped.

:broom:

I’m ready to have my heart broken again :cry: My wife is hyped as all heck right now about it, so I might as well join her lol

So… what about Blood Knights? People keep arguing that Paladins are, “Made of the light.”

Blood Knights definitely weren’t.

Blood Knights were light users, they were just taking it from a Naaru by force at TBC launch instead of calling upon it.

There aren’t a ton of npc’s in the first place. So having seen two high elf paladins are enough. How many Blood Elf Demon Hunters had you seen before Legion anyways?

Shadowmoon Valley & Black Temple they’re everywhere…?

I want Void Elf Pally but you’re not helping with these innacurate lore points please stop

That’s what I’m saying. There is this argument that Paladins are made out of the light and that’s why a Void Elf couldn’t do it. Blood Elf Paladins definitely aren’t. They torture a Naaru, think they’re stealing the light from him, but he’s actually just giving it to them.

Blood Knights were siphoning the Light from the Naaru, it wasn’t a “give because torture” scenario, they were taking it.

Regardless, Twilight Hammer & Scarlet Crusade Paladins prove anyone can call upon the Light.

I understand wanting a High Elf Paladin. Almost as much as wanting a Gnome Druid or any other class.

My question goes with the “Completing the High Elf Fantasy” thing. How can this be “complete” when High Elf Paladins barely exist? I’d understand with Mage, because obviously they are mostly mages.

But not only people are asking for HE Paladins on a group who are clearly Void Elves (as by Danuser’s own words, they went to undergo a similar Void transformation), but are also asking it because 2 High Elf Paladins.

So that’s where my question came from. I had to investigate because with the ferocity people ask Paladins, one would think that class was a staple of the High Elves, when it’s barely there.
