Void Elf Paladin - This NPC Needs Fixing

Where does the light sees multiple possibilities?

Ah, lol. That fits even less. How is this an argument?

benediction could change between a light and shadow staff as its user desired. that’s how it’s an argument.

Do you know what the staff does?

This is such a bad faith attempt to annoy me. Troll elsewhere.

Change. It never is both. Light and void cannot exist in one place without a stabilizing agent.

And priests channels the magic unlike paladins. Totally different concept.

Man imagine taking a single typo and making that singular thing, out of a whole dozen paragraph essay debunking you, the crux of your argument for why the person you’re arguing is wrong.

I’ve debunked every point you’ve made and every time you find ONE thing you can argue with, a FRIGGIN TYPO. and ignore the rest of the evidence presented to you.

That’s called arguing in bad faith.

Goodbye.

Literally them lol

Not sure why this topic triggers them so much. It reminds me of when certain helfers had a temper tantrum on the forums over blood elves getting blue eye options.

Yes, but obviously it’s not both at the same time. So I don’t see where that contradicts me. The name changes also. So how do you know it’s even the same staff?

A bad faith attempt? Ignoring your arguments? I’ve typed you a whole novel.

You’ve “debunked” nothing.

Your scribbled one-liners are supposed to be an “essay”?

I responded to your actual “argument”. You might have noticed if you had read more than a sentence.

But in fact you are doing exactly what you accuse me of doing. My post has about 5800 characters. And you’re stuck on the fact that I assumed you meant Benedictus, not Benedicton. (Given your first ‘typo’, I can hardly be blamed for assuming you meant something else that actually fits the context.) But it looks like I’m the one who fell for a troll here.

Thanks for playing.

Didn’t know the staff had a gender.

I still don’t think you know what you’re talking about.

So again, proof the light and shadow don’t work at the same time. :slight_smile:

I guess it makes more sense to talk about LF shadow priests. It’s the literal inverse of Void Elf paladins/light priests.

LF draenei DKs are also a thing people barely think about them. They’re the inverse of undead paladins.

canonically, they shouldn’t and do not exist
mechanically making this distinction against players has issues (imagine being a velf priest and only having access to 1 spec) so I can somewhat give the priests a pass. Also holy mixing with the undead has had a foothold since WotLK at the earliest I can give a concrete example, although there might be some obscure mcguffin in the RTS games I never played I’m overlooking.

Warlocks and paladins however are another matter. They don’t have an opt out where 1 spec would be valid ALL warlocks use void magic in their arsenal and ALL paladins use the light. But alas “everyone can do everything” is the prevailing mentality that dictates game direction nowadays. Hell I remember when night elf mages becoming a thing back in cata was a big deal that required large amounts of story to happen in advance to allow the shift in mentality but now it’s just like “you get a warlock, you get a warlock, warlocks for everybody!”

Can I have everyone’s hands for all this to my face. One facepalm is not even enough to even… ugh…

Why should a whole class like warlocks simply be blocked completely from being played but specs shouldn’t? If that’s the logic, all classes for all races even if that’s just “for gameplay reasons”.

And I don’t know where you got this “they don’t exist canonically”. The moment you give an example or an idea, people shot it down because it doesn’t fit their view over what is canon. If that was the case, they wouldn’t be able to that class. If they’re playable, they exist canonically, that has always been the rule.

because all specs of warlock use void, not just one.

Gameplay mechanics =/= Canon Lore.

Warlocks are actually about the Fel, not Void.

Or they realise how bad black and white situations are and perhaps they need a more nuanced approached to storytelling?

We do not actually know How Aeonara being a Paladin actually works, and we have already seen Twilight Vindicators using Paladin abilities since Cataclysm. There¿s obviously so much more nuance in how Void and Light interact than just “they explode.”

Yes, they need give us a good explanation of how it actually works, but we cannot pretend that Twilight magic doesn’t exist in the setting, and that we have seen Light+Void users since Cata. If anything, it was Legion that brought the idea that mixing them explodes with Turalyon and Alleria, and even that has been reframed to a specific interaction, with Turalyon being able to use void portals even.

Let’s not pretend that “lore that I don’t like” means the same that “lore that shouldn’t be”

nice! about time that the Disc priests figured out how to put armor on.
The Holy ones did so long ago and I don’t think Shadow has even tried yet

Ok, all PLAYER warlocks use void regardless of spec, therefor they’re not compatible.

One again, gameplay mechanics =/= canon lore. What part of that do you not understand.

And no, Warlocks does not have one “void” spell. Otherwise, name one “Void” spell that Warlocks have.

Not compatible with what?
