Like twitter or something?

I am trying to hit while the fire is hot on warlocks about some flavor changes and to fix the bugged felguard’s size which has been like a week now, He used to and needs to be bigger.

Wanted to recommend a new and exclusive felguard voice so he doesn’t share it with the doomguard as his dialogue doesn’t make sense for a felguard and their lore of what is available to us.

Really want felguards size bug to be fixed asap, he should be a demon hulk, not so small like he is now.

A weapon bank for felguards so you don’t have to hold them in your bag, they just grab any 2h melee weapon in this felguard weapon bank to use.

Some more warlock lore for the races, the pandaren reasons for joining the warlocks is lacking while the lightforged dreanei’s was excellently done.

Fel totem customization for horns on high mountain warlocks.

More Felguard weapon animations, in the beta for legion felguards wield their 2handers with both arms and had unique animations for them, this was changed so we got the old animations back(but updated) and the felguards we fight would wield their weapon with 2hands like any blademaster warrior would.

Felguards in legion are also shown to duel wield and even equip shields, Would be an excellent flavor option for when they are in tank stance.

More overall lore for the felguard would also be nice, to see if their colors are symbolic or anything or if they have different behaviors because of it.

In the original wow trading card game most of the felguard cards for some reason are that of the yellow felguard which is actually pretty cool, Some of its flavor text suggests it doesn’t care about its own fate, it only wishes to cause destruction.

Could be a neat example of yellow felguards being some of the most blood thirsty felguards and will fight against overwhelming odds due to their extreme nature.

While these card details are nice, they are non canon but it would be excellent if they were made canon and even giving additional flavor.

The felguards quotes in legion are also a nice touch as it gave us a more detailed look into their personalities and how they wish to humiliate and kill warriors of other worlds and realities.

No, you can’t contact devs. If you could, then they’d get 10 million whining crybabies every day and they’d never get any work done.

In-game suggestion tool is probably your best bet for this.

I don’t think contacting devs over… pet customization options… would be their top priority, as it’s nowhere even remotely close to the realm of relevant game breaking patch-now content.

Warlock pets are pets. They’re just AI controlled by the game to do generic damage and/or skills. They are not inherently special, nor are they characters/lore driven units/etc. They’re just pets that you enslave.

Comparatively, Hunters can tame literal raid bosses, otherworldy spirit animals, demi-gods, etc that have less support for them than Warlock imps. You have been given the sun/stars.

Post in bug report if you feel the Felguard isn’t “big enough” since last patch.

Many inaccuracies in your statement and the demons aren’t slaves, they do have lore of their own and have been destroying the galaxy for eons.

Since its hot with the demon customization right now I am hoping more things can be set right.

The lore you is quite literally enslave them with enslave demon.

it’s non satirically in the quest line for nearly every pet. You literally enslave them. With enslave demon. You gather the materials to summon them in a binding circle, and defeat them - enslaving them permanently - canonically inside soul shards which is why original Warlock pets cost soul shards, except Imps - who canonically do not have souls.

That’s why you can’t actually summon Pit Lords, Shivarran, Infernals, etc. They’re “greater” demons, canonically, and you can only summon them for a limited time. In canon warlock-lore, you’re basically a bully making subpar demons fight on your behalf.

In the past you were able to talent Grimoire of Supremacy to summon permanent “buffed” pets - but that even further separates that you are summoning “inferior” demons normally.

There’s no… “destroying the galaxy for eons”… Most of the demons you summon are considered lesser demons. Demonology, specifically, has the ability to summon “intermediate” demons - ala Felguard/Wraithlord via making a pact with them… But make no mistake - your pets, even if you try to delve into the canon lore… are still puny/insignificant.

I know the lore and things have changed, enslaved demons give less performance so contracts are preferred or winning the demons respect.

Also we can summon a pitlord, and the felguards are the shock troops of the legion and only the most powerful demonologists can control them.

You also use demonic acts of supremacy and dominance to get demons to follow you and I dont mean spells, like acts of intimidation to make lesser demons fall in line. There is lore tidbits for this.

Spec wise all warlocks operate very differently and this is in warlock lore.

Felguards once they don their armor, wear it for all time and they were the waves of destruction that wreaked havoc on countless worlds the legion still controls, felguards arent insignificant and even an experienced adventure faces a challenge in these eon lived single minded immortal brutes.

Do pets scale like mounts do?
You are pretty small, your mounts are small, are your warlock pets small too? Maybe go find a Kultiran warlock and see if your pets are the same size

I got pics I can’t post of a tauren warlock using felguard spell and how they are roughly the same size but are now noticeably smaller.

Its also talked about on the warlock forums and I just put it in the bug reports as well.

We are hoping for the big bois to make their return.

It has nothing to do with respect. Canonically in classic WoW, MoP and Legion where you in-depth explore “demons” - they are servants, not allies. Please look this up. This was established at level 10 with Summon Voidwalker quest nearly 20 years ago - the creature is enslaved, and controlled by the master.

A direct quote, " Using these runes, you will be able to draw it forth, and then you must dominate it through strength of arms and magic.

When it is subdued, it will be indentured to you. Come to me then, and I will elucidate the spell of summoning, so that it may serve you to whatever end you wish."

You can temporarily summon them Pit Lords via Nether Portal - you cannot control them. Again, please note:

Denotation on “limited time”. All greater demon summons are limited time.

100% head canon/made up - not lore accurate at any point in WoW history.

Specs, by lore, are completely irrelevant to demon control. It’s a base ability to control demons, not spec specific.

Head canon, again. Just things you’ve made up.

You are way too deep in the roleplay sauce of “things I made up and have convinced myself are true”. Please revisit actual wow canon/lore for these things, and re-stabilize your personal desires versus what actually happen(s/ed)

Just a hot tip if you submit a suggestion or but report - brevity is the soul of wit.

You seem to be critically missing what I am saying, I said things have changed and we prefer contracts now in the lore, I have done all the warlock quests.

Also nothing I said is made up, if you take back that assertion I will provide sources, otherwise this isn’t worth my time.

I am a lore enthusiast and love poisoning ppl on the lore, but someone who is trying to “educate me” and just telling me I am wrong is the wrong way to converse and learn.

I don’t even roleplay, I just love the lore and got multiple lore books.

I give up. You have created things in your brain that are directly contradictory to hard-fact in-universe canon.

Everything you’ve said is personal fan-fiction about your roleplaying character with your pets. None of it is founded inside the warcraft universe. I have provided repeated citation, sources, information, links, and more… you just aren’t interested in it.

Sorry your pokemon is smaller than you want it to be. Try some rare candy.

He also accused me of dishonesty and didnt even want to hear me explain my sources and insisted they didnt exist and were made up.

Dont give me this shiz, he came at this in a way where he thought he couldnt possibly been wrong and just spit on me.

He wasn’t trying to have a discussion and learn things and discuss sources, he just wanted to throw venom and pound his chest.

No one is gonna look at this and say he was the reasonable one here trying to get to the facts, he just ends with f u, you’re wrong.

He isnt worth my time and its obvious be has never read any of the lore books or other higher level warlock quests.

Pandaren reason could generally be just about any other races reasons, most of the reasons are pretty universal.

But no reason is more universal than the Pandarens reason. Some people are just psychopaths. Some people just want to watch the world burn. That’s the best thing about Warlock. No race actually needed a reason why warlocks would exist in their race except for perhaps Lightforged Draenei. Every other race would of course have individuals who become interested in the dark arts, even if it’s generally taboo from their race. Being a warlock is generally taboo in all races, so why should draenei and night elves and tauren and the like be so different?

Because it went into each of their individual reasons and what dialogue goes on behind the scenes of such races.

I really liked the taurens because it touched on pre established lore of grim totems having warlocks among them as well as mirroring similar reasons to why gul dan became a warlock.

Pandarens are often said not to come in any bad flavors, so I really wanted to hear the reasons and what modern pandaren say about it.

Dark magic in general would be extremely mythical to pandaren of Pandaria, it wasnt that long ago they thought trolls were a myth.

In general they don’t even really like Arcane magic, seeing it as unnecessary but yet use it in military operations.

So much I want to hear about.
