You do realize that Shadow and Void are a little different, right? And you do know that the Insanity thing for Priests is a gameplay mechanic only recently added?
Shadow magic has been used for ages without going insane from the Void. You can touch the Shadow without delving full into the Void.
YEAAAaaas Please!
I have normal shard for Affliction, Fel for Destruction just need Shadowflame for Demo!
PS: Give Evokers Shadowflame quest too please! I love if my Blue/Red/Black flames would have that tint added to their powers like Warlocks have with the Green Flame!
Shadow priests use shadow magic, which is void magic. You say shadow magic is shadow magic, therefore, warlocks and sub rogues use void too. Where are their sanity issues? Youâre not making sense.
No, itâs a pretty universal thing that happens when you dabble with the void. See Alleriaâs story in Legion or anything having to do with the creation of void elves. Shadow priests have it as a gameplay mechanic but theyâre far from the only ones who experience it.
Yeah before Chronicles retconned shadow into void magic lol.
Warlock shadowflame is from pre-Chronicles era and was just basic shadow magic, new shadowflame is explicitly void related. Theyâre not the same thing.
You want to make mages REALLY mad and feel neglectedâŚgive warlocks more special spell effect quests and glyphs while they get a new polymorph that never gets used.
Personally im not fussed.
But after seeing a thread where someone asked for shadowflame effects on mage (lol), im in full support of claiming what is rightfully ours.
The shadow magic that shadow priests use, and that 10.1 shadowflame is made of is explicitly void magic.
Shadow priests didnât used to be insane void cultists. Undead used to be animated with shadow magic, now retconned to death because of the cosmology chart and later on the association with the Jailer.
Plenty was retconned.
Neltharionâs shadowflame is fire and void and this was made extremely clear in the campaign quests and the raid, not that it wasnât clear beforehand because of the whole Deathwing thing. Why else would it have started affecting Sabellianâs mind?
Warlocks do not use this same kind of shadowflame, period. If they did it would affect their minds as much as it does Sabellian or any shadow priest, yet that hasnât been demonstrated at any point.
Yes and the blend of shadowflame warlocks use is not the void variety we see in 10.1. That was my entire point which seems to have flown over everyoneâs heads.
Void isnât an energy type. The Void is a realm full of shadow energy. The voidwalkers and Void Lords are shadow creatures. Stop trying to downplay my class fantasy. Shadow priests donât have a monopoly on shadow, or void for that matter. Shadow priests had nothing to do with the Void until Legion.
