I replayed the battle for Lordaeron and noticed how there were new skeletons after it was implemented. So new forsaken were born.
Almost as if it were an allegory for that liquid that precedes the creation of life, after all, blight afflicted victims complain the same way my ex-girlfriend did when it got in her eyes.
My alliance friends have been telling me this is the sickening poetry of the forsaken, I guess trying to make me ammend for the burning of Tedrassil? Now I can’t make jokes about the damn tree, and I had been adamant to refuse it, but every time I hear that nasty, nasty rascal Nathanos say “blight it all, from here to the shoreline” I just feel disgusted, and also a bit disturbed. As if the bonemen were cheering, just like the average consumer of Japanese adult entertainment.
I am so tired of being the receptor of alliance propaganda to ruin my favorite class in the game, first was the sylvanas farts and now this. I am here to file a formal complain, and a request to the community.
Please do not use blight as an allegory for that slimy liquid.
I don’t think we have to worry about the killing part. We’ve been warring against each other and third parties of various scales for decades. There are probably enough bodies to more than fill the Grand Canyon just waiting to be raised.
It’s more of a semi-magical bioweapon. It does sometimes cause flesh to break down but most iterations of it seem to need to be inhaled. That’s why gas masks are effective protection against it.
Some versions of it can turn the living into mindless undead but it doesn’t seem to raise those that were dead before getting exposed.
Also, some versions of it simply kill. For example, the one that was used at the Battle for the Undercity just killed everything and then Sylvanas raised the skeletons with her own power.
Edit: On the topic of plague, acid, and raising the victims, there’s a quest/daily in Icecrown where you “neutralize” the plague by adding a component that turns it into acid on the logic that, while it’ll still be a painful death, the victims will at least stay dead.
We can make a compromise, and turn this thread into a MAKE MALDRAXXUS SLIMES PLAYABLE [GENERAL] if the high elves got it, why not get skelletons with blight?
