The strange need some ppl has with changing paladins to a void class

Cause they exist via twilight hammer and Nightmare vision.

I dont mind void paladin skin for VE but would be cool if they get a quest to get regular light effect for player who want to rp Alliance High elf. (I also mean light effect on their racial as visual)

They use light magic still.

Checked myself.

Then we need to reverse all class themes and shut down the servers.

Void knights should be their own class, not butcher existing classes.

Class/race restrictions are very outdated. It’s time to let us play what race we want… GIVE ME HM PALADIN!

Yeah they do. Cause they were brought in Cata and never reworked their look/spell. And the deffinition of most class is outdated. If you read the shaman one you need to have a strong connection with the element to be one. But hey you can just slave them with void magic and be one apparently so.

Its same for paladin. It not restricted to the light but in what you believe in and how you become the hero to that cause.

They don’t need to, evil paladins exist and use the light just fine.

Not really.

Dark shamans don’t use the void to force the elementals, they use decay, which is the opposite of spirit which gave the elements life and will of their own. Decay is a lesser part of the death cosmology. Playable shamans don’t use it, and would conflict with teh restoration spec.

It actually is restricted to the light, similiar to how warlocks is restricted to the fel, and mages are restricted to arcane.

Faith isn’t what drives void unlike light where faith is a minimum requirement. They are polar opposites after all.

A link to where ppl is suggesting this?

It seems pretty weird. Void being the antithesis to the light.

But if we are going to go this route I want to see Dark Iron Dwarves get a red holy aura for fire.

The way you phrased it sounded like it was already in the works.

My bad, no class skins isn’t in the works.

Think whatever man but they do.

Shaman are spiritual guides and practitioners, not of the divine, but of the very elements. The Void is capable of dominating and enslaving elementals… One way for a shaman to become a dark shaman is to use the Void to control the elements.

This is a quote in the void section on wowpedia. Im sorry but they use void magic not decay

Unlike Spirit, which is used to communicate with the elements and/or heal, Decay binds the elements to one’s will, forces them into servitude and weaponize them. This is also the main reason why dark shaman are able to use the elements (in a twisted form nonetheless) even without asking the elements for permission.[1]

First paragraph of the article on decay on wowpedia.

Lol you took something that was made up to explain Shadowland which hold little value.

And if we follow the tex they talk about sahaman in DF mostly used but the gnoll shaman in DF. And has a yellow/greenish mucus color.

And when you clic on the same article ‘‘Dark Shaman’’ part it litteraly say they used void magic and were more similar to Warlock.

And all their in-game VFX are purple like the void

I don’t care what they have to do to make VElf pallies playable I just want it to happen.

lol that’s quite the jump.

It is what it is equitable to.

If blizz continues “all races, all classes” as they said, it will happen. I just do not think they need to break class lore to do it like with a void skin to our spells.

It had been shamanism lore for several expansions now… it wasn’t just sl lore.

And even then, just because you don’t like it, doesn’t remove the fact it is canon.

Except your same article when you clic on the link for Dark Shaman it say they use void.

No. It was in SL and thats all. And a bit in Legion with the blood Hightmountain guys. But the one from Ragefire casm, Siege of Orgrimar, Twilight Hammer all use void

Let’s be real, they are not going to open pally, shammy, druid, because they have to make a special mount, totems, forms for each race.

I say no, but then again the current paladin design wouldn’t suffer from it because it literally has nothing to do with the paladin theme anymore outside of 2 abilities with undead interactions.
