Undead Paladins...When?

Based on his description… Undead Priests and anyone healed by them should be stunned for 30 to 60 seconds every time they are healed, or cast a heal… Let the game reflect the lore.

Never

Though with 0 posts I suspect someone trying to get an early start on Sunday, or they’re chronologically challenged.

Priests and Paladins are two very different classes. Just because a race can be a priest, that doesn’t mean they can also be paladins. It doesn’t work that way.

What makes you think you’re stunned when in pain…? People are still fully capable of fighting through it. It’s a war.

So no. :woman_shrugging: Otherwise tanks would be stunned on a regular basis. That’s ridiculous. This also has nothing to do with my point pretty much at all that there are undead holy priests, by the way…

Not sure if you’re a guy or a girl… but have you ever had someone kick you in the nads? Seen a guy get kicked hard in the nads? I dare you to work through that pain… I would expect using the light when your essence is effectively from the dark would be worse than that kinds of pain.

Never. 10char

…Once again, tanks are smacked in the face and dealt horrible wounds on a regular basis, yet they keep fighting. This also isn’t real life, believe it or not.

This is also completely and utterly irrelevant to my point, so have a nice day I guess? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say pretty much at all, because my argument wasn’t ‘gameplay reflecting lore’, it’s literally ‘here’s the lore and here’s my source’.

Yeah, as a race. By your logic all Lightforged are paladins.

They have the Gift of the Narru, but again that’s a race thing. There’s no evidence that Vindicators are any more infused with the light than other Draenei.

Congratulations! You found exactly one case you can back up.

Source?

And how is that any different from how they use any other kind of magic? Again, that’s a race thing.

Feel free to show a source for where the blessing of the Loa is infusion and not just the power granted them the same way priests are.

And again, you’re free to show evedence that this means they’re actually infused with it, but you won’t because it doesn’t exist.

So far the only case you’ve been able to prove it that wasn’t a race wide condition not specific to paladins of that race has been humans. Which isn’t exactly a rock solid argument.

Since everything is assumed to not be infused with the light as a general rule, that obviously extends to the numerous cases of paladin you can’t prove are infused with the light.

From the very establishment of the Order of the Silverhand for the dwarves were a part of. And you’re talking like everyone of that race has to be a Paladin. Vindicators are a title for a warrior. They don’t all use the Light. But the PALADIN do. If you are considered a Paladin on any terms, you are infused with the Light as poor the lore and story.

Sir Zeliek, a boss in Naxx, is an undead Paladin and functions quite well.

Calia being light forged sorta makes this questionable though. I mean, there is an entire light forged race who can be Paladin’s afterall.

I don’t think Blizzard Entertainment wants to acknowledge sadomasochist tendencies, so I doubt Undead Paladins being playable will happen.

I have asked this question since I learned about the NPC
“Sir Zeliek”
Why is it only exclusive to him… feelsbad

Good show sir, starting this topic on a Troll

I mentioned this in another thread. It makes me wonder what the state of the situation has to be in order to qualify for Lightforging. If an undead Paladin were to happen, Lightforging would be the way it could happen.

No. You are.

You are the one who declared that being infused with the light made you a paladin, and your examples were races that were infused with the light across the entire race.

Vindicator is the Draenei paladin order. Draenei warriors who are not paladins are called peacekeepers or protectors.

And ALL Draenei use the light, it’s a racial ability.

And you still haven’t backed that up.

You’ve proven that Human paladins are. And you have given tangential evidence that dwarves might be.

But you haven’t shown that Paladins, as a whole, are all infused with light, and in fact you’ve hurt your argument by using race wide connections to the light when every member of that race is not a paladin.

No, no I didn’t. The conversation was Paladins. For a Paladin to exist they must be infused with the light. Not all humans are imbued with the light. But Paladin are. At this point I’m just writing you off as a troll as it is stated very clearly that a Paladin is in tune with the light.

There’s no lore stating that the Forsaken/ Undead can’t be infused with the Light, or even call upon the Light. There is established lore stating that it takes a great, great many years of constant improvement for them to re-attune to the Light to even be Priests. As for a Paladin, I am assuming it is a similar process, but one that comes with all the more risk to the Undead.

Calia is a priest, not a Paladin. I fail to understand how this makes anything questionable.

Calia is also a special snowflake raised by the Light and is NOT our common necromancy Undead.

Give it enough time. Blizz will open the flood gates on any race/spec/class and may even one day just drop the whole faction thing.

If it brings in money, lore can be rewritten or just flat out ignored. This is a fantasy setting where I can’t fly at the start because of reasons

Voicing my support for undead Paladins

Blizzard doesn’t care about lore anyways. So might as well go for it. Same for void elf paladins
