With all that research into plague and blight, you’d think every Forsaken is a super spreader. Getting anywhere into 10 yards of a Forsaken should contract some highly contagious but slow lethal disease.
Instead of hurling blight bombs, Forsaken should be hurling corpses into enemy cities.
The whole deal where Priests had unique racial spells is one of my favorite things about Classic that I wish was kept. Makes the Priest fantasy feel awesome.
Well the flesh they have has been restored to life, so a Forsaken can technically get sick. The magic that brought their flesh back also sustains the flesh. That’s why Forsaken can die and that’s why they’re returned to life and not just a skeleton, which is soulless.
That’s why they wear gas masks when handling the plague, silly.
