I asked ChatGPT about new warlock combos

Again, I keep having to say this, because people keep incorrectly citing lore they don’t understand.

since the game first came out, warlocks are pariahs that for most races, operate illegally. We do not care about our race’s broad culture, we are power hungry individuals with a variety of motives to pursue the dark arts.

Is there going to be canonical droves of lightforged warlocks? No, probably not. But it certainly is possible. Warlocks are generally a tiny statistic on the census of any given race’s population anyway.

Just like how canonically, we are essentially the main character, and an exception to the briader rule. If gameplay and story seperation didn’t exist, we’d be capable of feats gul’dan can only dream of.

Someone really needs to update the Chat. Every question I get is.:

“As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021”

One of the main complaints is not just cultural, but biologically fel is not compatible with some of these races.

If you refer to mag’har, that is false. Every race would mutate if they drank demon blood or siphoned fel the way the elves did. Otherwise, barring massive infusion like that, they would remain un-greened.

If you refer to lightforged draenei, there’s nothing to really support that, and the fact they can be shadow priests without exploding debunks that notion by itself.

Nothing quite like what a forsaken light user, especially a Paladin, would endure.

Isn’t it like… almost every race’s values are incompatible with warlocks and, in general, warlocks are sort of outcasts to begin with?

The class itself is supposed to be an exception to the norm, and probably shunned by their people in most cases.

Felblood elves drank blood.
A very miniscule amount of elves, so miniscule that it is not even noteworthy, decided to siphon fel.
Their eyes turned green from simply exposure due to the burning crystals found in Quel’thalas, because fel radiates and permeates the area around it.

While some frostwolves appearantly chose to become warlocks, that was also a small number, and even those who did not drink blood or practice fel magic still had their skin turn green due to the fel magic around them, because as mentioned, fel radiates and permeates the area around it, it corrupts everything in the viscinity.

This included Blood Elven rangers too, who were largely hanging out in Eversong Woods.

So yes, even mag’har would eventually see their brown skin turn green.

Technically did was explained away with the fact that blizzard simply could not disallow players from choosing a specific talent tree for a class.

And it is not the first time blizzard does something like this. On the matter of the golden eyes for Blood Elves, they outright stated that it was only Blood Elven paladins and priests who would have these golden eyes, but they could not limit the golden eyes to just these two classes, and that was simply a cosmetic thing.

Brown orcs should see their skin turn green eventually. But as far as I am concerned, it is up to individual players to deal with that consequence themselves.

Also, there is no such thing.

I love when people are like “only one in a million LFD would be Warlocks.”

Yeah, thats what stories are. They dint write novels about a guy who orders pizza in a Friday night and watches netflix.

Its called Background Character Syndrome

Who cares about what ChatGPT has to say? It’s just code.

33

It is a bit opened to interpretation how much fel is needed to turn an Orc green. It is fact that being around fel turns an orc green based on Thrall’s parents.

Basic Draenei devolve when exposed to fel, but you are right that we have never seen this happen to a Lightforged. To me it seems like a reasonable assumption it would happen to Lightforged as well.

Blizzard needs to fire their current writing staff and hire this ChatGPT fella.

I think that’s what most of us who support this one want. Freedom of choice to roleplay and story OUR OWN CHARACTERS. I don’t care if it’s not in the story of the game or NPCs, but players should get freedom of choice.

Draenei don’t devolve when exposed to fel. The broken were created by the red pox combined with fel energy to create a bio-weapon. Krokul were created by fel exposure but after thousands upon thousands of years, which probably any race would devolve if exposed to fel that long.

Among roleplayers, the people who are the loudest about being “LORE ACCURATE” and “proud lore elitists” almost always have completely whackadoo character concepts for their own characters.

No, but see, they can do it because they did the research, they say! Their character is the special snowflake that’s the exception to the rule! But OTHER people aren’t allowed to just do what they want willy-nilly, they need to play cardboard human warrior and Kaldorei Druid cutouts because X, Y and Z are supposed to be rare.

But see, they have a novella going over their Draenei Warlock’s backstory and it’s a totally unique exception, he’s the only one. Ever. But that’s only because he was created as a crossover with their homebrew D&D 5th Edition Tiefling character and imported through Universe Gates and isn’t really a Draenei and also he’s Khadgar’s dad.

…but that thing that YOU want to do, that’s breaking lore :dracthyr_a1:

Write a story about dragons

In the vast realms of Azeroth, where the forces of light and darkness clash, a tale of dragons unfolds. High above the land, the majestic Dragonflights soar, guardians of ancient powers and secrets.

Deep within the emerald forests of Ashenvale, the young night elf druidess, Liadrin, sensed a disturbance in the delicate balance of nature. Mystical whispers guided her to the Shrine of Ysera, the Aspect of the Green Dragonflight. There, amidst shimmering moonlight, Liadrin discovered a wounded green dragon named Elysia.

Elysia’s emerald scales were tarnished, and her once radiant wings were tattered. With her remaining strength, she revealed a troubling revelation to Liadrin. A dark necromancer named Xeros, seeking to harness the power of dragons, had begun capturing and corrupting the once-proud Dragonflights. Elysia implored Liadrin to gather a group of champions to aid her in freeing her kin from Xeros’ clutches.

Liadrin, fueled by her love for nature and her oath to protect it, embarked on a perilous journey across Azeroth. In the snowy peaks of Northrend, she sought the frost wyrm Vesperion, last of the Blue Dragonflight. Though hesitant at first, Vesperion recognized the threat to his brethren and agreed to join their cause.

Next, they ventured to the blistering deserts of Tanaris, where the fiery Red Dragonflight once thrived. There, they found Emberix, a battle-scarred red dragon who mourned the loss of his kin. Fueled by vengeance, Emberix eagerly joined the group, his flames burning brightly once more.

Their search then led them to the twisting caverns of Deepholm, home of the powerful Earth Dragonflight. Beneath the stony surface, they discovered Daelan, a wise and patient earth dragon. Though reluctant to leave his realm, Daelan recognized the importance of their quest and pledged his formidable strength to their cause.

Finally, they traveled to the Skywall, realm of the Wind Dragonflight. Amidst swirling winds and turbulent skies, they encountered Zephyrion, a swift and agile wind dragon. Zephyrion, yearning for freedom and adventure, readily joined their group, his wings eager to soar once more.

United in their purpose, Liadrin and her newfound companions set their sights on Xeros’ stronghold, a hidden citadel nestled within the treacherous Blackrock Mountain. Facing formidable obstacles and hordes of corrupted dragons, they fought with unwavering determination, unleashing their elemental powers and strategic prowess.

At the heart of the citadel, they confronted Xeros, a twisted figure consumed by dark magic. A fierce battle ensued, with the dragons and Liadrin’s allies unleashing their combined might. Through sheer bravery and unwavering teamwork, they defeated Xeros, his malevolent influence dissipated.

With Xeros defeated, the corrupted dragons were freed from his control, their scales regaining their luster. Liadrin and her companions bid farewell to their newfound dragon allies, their bonds forged through shared adversity. As they returned to their respective realms, the dragons took to the skies, vowing to safeguard Azeroth once more.

And so, the tale of Liadrin and the dragons became legend, a testament to the unyielding spirit of unity and the indomitable power of the Dragonflights. As long as Azeroth endured, their legacy would continue, forever entwined with the winds that whispered through the land and the eternal flame that burned within their hearts.

I was referring to the orcs, comparing to the mag’har.

Again, every single race in the game would mutate with un-protected fel-exposure, depending on how it was channeled. Mag’har aren’t a special lore breaking case, there.

I’m RP as an “undead Druid”

The skin that’s green with red eyes made it perfect.

My gear is from when I climbed out of the ground, dripping with nasty ooze xD

When I read that it seems like the keyword for both scenarios is still fel exposure.
