Shadow bow is for sure going to hunters as well they have the archetype. And it shows DH in shadow but still with warglaives so I am guessing a melee shadow or a throwing glaive spec.
I dont think void really goes well with hunter since hunter is life magic and engineering (and death magic with dark ranger).
I know they have a dark ranger hero spec but dark ranger is death magic not void magic (shadowlands/Sylvanas /lich king/dk necro stuff). Death != void magic those are 2 separate types of energies in wow lore i think the void actually is terrified of death magic.
Hunter is nature by default. or it was until they added survial which could be still considered nature. But as I stated they have the Archetype for shadow in Alleria. She is a hunter that went void. So they have the Archetype already for a bow using shadow spec. It could she she trains other hunters on how to use the void from what she learned.
And in the pictures it shows a DH in void coloring using two shadow warglaives so it would make sense that if it was going to be ranged that it would be a thrown weapon spec since it showed the warglaives while the DH was in Shadow spec.
This is just my thought and sorry for the length of the post but we already have a class that uses bows so why not make it a throwing spec. There is no class that uses throwing as its form of dps. But I dont think it will be ranged I think it will just be a Shadow melee dps.
Oh yes I do know this I play Dark Ranger on my hunter and to be honest I know leaning into the Sylvanas fantasy with it being death but they did it wrong by having Dark Arrow replace our execute. It should have replaced our Arcane shot and it should have converted all of our abilities to ones more aligned with death. But I would have rather had void powers over death and gone for an Alleria build than Sylvanas. Hell if we could get Alleriaâs bow she uses or something that looks as good with it being void I would love that over the what 3-5 different Sylvanas bow looks we have had with no explanation as to why she switched bows.
Where does it say that hunters use void magic like alleria? You might be looking at old lore since the shadowlands its been pretty concrete that void and death magic are seperate entities. I dont think hunter uses any void spells its like a few death magic spells from the dark ranger hero tree.
My actual guess is that void elfs and Alleria are primed to mix with the illidari and we will have void illidari, at least this is based on what i see with the story in the next few patches and the fact that demon hunters always use the enemies power against them and there are some references to it next patch
From what was data mined a DH was showing a void elf how dhâs work and the void elf was going to do a void ritual to empower the DH with void.
Alleria can show other hunters how to channel void. I am just saying the DH with a bow is a concept that isnât probably going to happen and that Hunters already have the Archetype for getting void with Alleria.
I dont know what you are referencing when you say alleria is teaching hunters void magic and that the hunter class already has void archetype. Its death magic not void
Are you not readingâŚI said she can show hunters not that she is. And yes she is a hunter that uses shadowâŚReally learn to read ffs
I dont want to argue about this but the idea that hunters can be across life magic death magic and void magic just doesnt sound like its going to happen. As i already said, i dont think hunters will get a 4th void spec or BM\MM will get any void spells on top of the life\death spells they already have
HUNTERS ARE NOT LIFE they are nature. NATURE⌠And Yes Alleria CAN teach how to channel the void. I am not sure why you arenât understanding this. Why you are so desperate to hold on to DHâs with a bow. When from what I can see the Videos showing the DH that was void spec was using Warglaives not a bow.
Yes Alleria can show hunters how to use the void.
Life magic\nature magic it doesnt matter. Death magic and void magic dont mix. You can get as angry as you want im just saying what is likely going to happen if DH gets a third spec.
First I want to apologize for getting angry was running on 2 days no sleep.
That being said in part I was correct with the you arenât fully reading what I had typed I never said Alleria was teaching hunters to use void magic but I said she could. And the Fact that Void Elves can be hunters they could also.
Neither does light and void yet Light Forged Draenei can be Shadow Priest and warlocks (and if you remember from legion when light and Void touch it causes an explosion from the sceen where you help Turalyon find Alleria after we shoot down the ship. When she saves him from the demon that we were fighting she touched him which caused an explosion) so following this logic that is a cut scene in the game all void elf priest should explode when they use holy abilities what about Void elves being hunters. The combination is already there Void Elf Hunters. Death magic isnât always turned on for hunters. But hey void elf hunters can be dark rangers so that right there proves that combination can exist.
If blizzard followed their own rules. Made Void elf priest where they only had shadow powers but that they healed and that lightforged could not use void but their warlocks were using light versions of spells for warlocks and summon light versions of demons which in legion has a demon go to the light for the paladin class hall he shows up. If they made lightforged priest not able to have shadow form but a holy form with holy versions of what shadow priest spells are there. Well then that would be a different story but they donât follow their powers chart and those mixing of powers are in the game we play right now.
And look at Dark Ranger spec the damage is shadow damage just like shadow priest and warlocks. So its not death magic they use its shadow.
There is definitely new lore incoming for sure with this 3rd spec I suspect⌠and your mention of Void base aberrations makes sense⌠I hope they expand on it.
Since Warlocks have been mixing all types of Shadow Magic (Death, Shadowflame, Shadowfrost etc) and recently even visually you can tell that these type of magic look very Volatile having Purple and Green flames mix looking very Chaos Oriented if still full Void and ShadowâŚ
I honestly would not be surprise that, if the Legion was able to enslave a Titan infusing him with the Power of Death (Argus) whatâs from the Lore reveling that they capture a Void Lord or at least a Lesser Void Lord and have been feeding it with Fel and from this they get their Voidwalker AberrationsâŚ?
One thing does intrigue me however and that is the new type of Shadow magic called Cosmic DMG⌠Looks very space like and is similar to Fel in that its comprise of other types of damage or magic type mix together.
You can look it up in the Wiki: [Cosmic damage is a damage type that often involves a combination of Arcane, Shadow, Nature, and Holy magic]
So if this is the Void Cosmic Magic that DH will use to hunt Void Aberrations itâs very different from what Warlocks Fel Shadow Magic use and probably most Demons. (IMO)
I do hope they do expand on both Classes sources of power in the future⌠Iâm such a nerd when it comes to these Magic Schools or even new ones!
Even if the lore changes Iâm exited that DH is getting its 3rd spec whatever it is⌠and ones its truly confirm am dying with anticipation of what the Hero Spec will even be about!
Just open it up to more races elfs are ao boring let me play a zandalari
