High Elf POSITIVITY Thread 😎

Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord · January 5, 2021, 5:23pm

Even when I was fully on board with High Elves this manifesto always bothered me.

Grabbag-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 5:24pm

Was it the one with the whole section about Zandalari after all?

Somand-proudmoore · January 5, 2021, 5:27pm

I can’t find any mention of Zandalari, and the only mention of trolls I can find is a quote about the Witherbark trolls, and a section about the Darkspear troll population.

Grabbag-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 5:30pm

A riveting document to be sure.

There aren’t multiple elf manifestos are there? That’s the funniest thing I’ve heard all year.

Zurogrusel-darrowmere · January 5, 2021, 5:32pm

They misspelled Zalazane.

Misspelling a troll name is one of the most elf player things, it’s like Alliance players misspelling Orgrimmar.

“Zuldazane” smh

Grabbag-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 5:34pm

Or Alliance players misspelling Blood Lust.

Zurogrusel-darrowmere · January 5, 2021, 5:35pm

When I leveled my first Alliance alt in early BfA I remember seeing heroism for the first time and being mind blown there was a form of lust I hadn’t seen before.

I didn’t find out they had a different version until like 6 months later.

I probably kept confusing everyone when I asked for lust instead of hero.

Somand-proudmoore · January 5, 2021, 5:37pm

Ugh, Draenei shaman were such an afterthought.

Grabbag-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 5:37pm

A wrong version.

Zurogrusel-darrowmere · January 5, 2021, 5:38pm

It should’ve been Wildhammer and broken, draenei shamans trigger me.

Grabbag-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 5:38pm

The idea of having “heroism” instead of the Warcraft 3 spell is wrong.

Lannisterian-tichondrius · January 5, 2021, 5:39pm

You know I never even glanced at that before lol.

For all my sympathies for people who (as long as they aren’t hating on Blood Elves) to want like the Highvale for example, I never cared to even click on that manifest. I figured it wasn’t going to make me anymore sympathetic, it was probably extremely biased, and seemed like a hassle I hate things that seem like a hassle.

At least the available compromise allows the RP tools that should be more than sufficient.

Somand-proudmoore · January 5, 2021, 5:41pm

The fact that it was called a “manifest” always bugged me. Made it seem off, without even reading it.

Grabbag-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 5:41pm

Shouldn’t it be a manifesto?

Ithiriel-cenarion-circle · January 5, 2021, 6:00pm

Sorry

(Avarie? Maybe)

Vawwo-draenor · January 5, 2021, 6:05pm

Don’t you dare apologize. It wasn’t us who choose to name it “Heroism”. Blame those macho male Draenei who couldn’t bear to be the “bad guy” and just call it what it is. Blood Lust.

Ithiriel-cenarion-circle · January 5, 2021, 6:07pm

I meant for being a draenei shaman, though her connection with the light was cut off by fel exposure so she could be considered part of the broken.

Gulkas-barthilas · January 5, 2021, 6:11pm

Awful lot of draenei shamans in here.

Vawwo-draenor · January 5, 2021, 6:11pm

Oh, now that is an interesting story.

This one ended up on Azeroth rather early on during the First War… (Long story that amounts to getting super lucky and sneaking through the portal cause she couldn’t sneak back to her people.)

She became a ~~pirate~~ corsair working for the goblins in STV.

Recently amended her story so that she learns Shamanism from Kul’Tiran pirates, Zandalari renegades, and Goblin shaman while working with the Cartels.

Dakramith-bronzebeard · January 5, 2021, 6:13pm

I imagine that is mostly cause they were the Alliance’s only choice for some time.

I’d bet they’re still the most common shaman overall for the Alliance.
