Void Elf Paladin make a lot of sense

Lightforged can be death knights. Not exactly sure how that works but ok. I thought Death Knights were incompatible with the light. So I wouldn’t mind Void Elf pallys.

I support the idea of a Paladin void-themed skin for Void elves. They could change the tooltip name to Dark Paladin. I think it sounds pretty epic personally. They’d re-colour hallmark spells like Divine shield, Consecration, Divine Storm, Avenger’s Wrath and Holly Light to blueish and purple colorations and ta-da! From an unfitting, lore-breaking class combo choice, Dark Paladins would become a hallmark of Void culture and theme.

In fact, if Blizzard takes note and decides to invest in this, we ‘‘Helfers’’ may someday successfully start a new era of class skins where people reap the best of both worlds and not only will all races be all classes, but also maintain their own unique racial flavours!

Hell, maybe Undead could become Dark Paladins too! Nightborne could be Arcane-based Druids. Gnomes and Kul’'tirans could easily be Paladins without need for explanation. Gnomes could be Druids with kitten forms! How cute would that be?? Pandas could easily be druids too given their connection to nature and balance. I could go on and on. But I certainly very much believe in the potential of class skins as it will give a unique and fresh flavour to the classes and races of WoW!

Worgen and a class where attacking barehanded is the whole thing WOULD seem like a great match, yes.

misconception based on older lore and some minor retcons.

The light can harm undead but they’re not opposed forces so its not entirely incompatible.

Though I don’t actually think the Light and Void are incompatible either… they’re just very volatile to one another in large quantities.

And these guys have their own Wild Gods called the August Celestials. It would be so easy to use them as the forms and have a group of pandaren take up a druidic order to support the celestials.

absolutely.

How sick would that be? I’d roll a Pandaren druid then for sure. Heck, you could choose as your ‘‘bear’’ form to be a literal Panda on all fours, or use a glyph to turn into a mini version of that Yak God, can’t recall his name.

You could be a crane for your restoration form with a glyph :smile:

I imagine their forms would be based entirely on the celestials.

Bear would be the Yak.
Cat would be the Tiger.
Moonkin would be a Ztroll style Crane.
Travel flight: Cloud Serpent.
Travel ground: Turtle
travel water: Koi. :stuck_out_tongue:
Tree form: Treant that looks like the trees in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms.

Blizzard is already working on opening all races to all classes; it is only a matter of time.

Expected results:

Blizzard’s result:

Void tainted Elves kneeling in the Cathedral, abandoning yet more of their essence to adopt more of their Human overlords culture.

Thank you Helfers :eyes:

No they don’t and you are incorrect. There’s more to it than just priests wielding something and thinking paladins should be able to do the same.

Funny thing about this is void elves gets special flavor text in the cathedral too.

Yes to doing it as a class skin, that being Void based Paladin. As for Light based, that could come in the form of a new glyph. Glyphs for making paladins Light/Void skinned would be a great addition for any Paladin race and would be entirely non-canon as glyphs tend to be.

I’d roll a panda druid in a heartbeat for those forms :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes:

the key is the composition of telogrus rift’s students. there are high elf wayfarers, silvermoon scholars and alleria’s rescued void elves, all studying the void.

And you’re going to argue light revering Blood Knights are part of the groups interested in studying the void? Is that it?

Any light revering high elves imo would be returning to Silvermoon to their kin under the Blood Elf banner.

Blood Elves are the main population of High Elves. We have two options Void Elves who study the void or Blood Elves who honor their fallen.

Where do you think the Light adjacent Thalassians are siding with?

Oh just give them Paladins already, from what I hear of Shadowlands, Lore is basically in the trash at this point.

No no because I need to type so many letters. But no

well the bulk of void elves are former blood elves with some non blood elf high elves mixed in. i think its better to make the class the tribalistic point rather than the race. you should be able to learn any class, regardless of race

We may as well scrap the story, plot, anything resembling history. Just make a toon and play any class. and just go straight to a raid and kill a monster.
