Ashen Voidwalker

[Elise the Seeker]

Has anyone figured out how to get it?

There is a variant of a void walker, that's black and has flames and smoke coming from out of it.
If this exists, has anyone figured out other variations for other pets?

In the Alpha, I remember my imp having extra felflame around it, and flies.

As far as I know, these are all just bugged visual effects and unintentional things. My imp for a brief time could fly as I was going through Dalaran, purely out of what I believe was a phasing bug. It landed back down the moment I left Dalaran.

As for the voidwalker, I couldn't say, but it would likely be a short-duration debuff of some sort or an effect that it'd lose the moment it was resummoned. My first thought was allowing a Retribution paladin or Fire Mage to kill it and then resummoning it before its corpse can despawn.

Nope. They all seem like intentional hidden effects. It could be why our artifact alone doesn't do something special, because our hidden abilites are tied to our pets.
I didn't state that our imp can fly, I said that it had flies around it.
When the void walker is resummoned, it still has the same ashen effect.

Was this in demo spec?

I initially took it to mean it can fly, also.

On the alpha it was destruction.
But on live the person who had the void walker was affliction.
He said he had no idea what he did to get it. But he had finished his class hall campaign also.
Everytime he summons it, it's the ashen variant.


Next time he's online, ill take a screenshot of it.

[Netherspark]

Never heard of this.

Where is the "Ashen" name coming from, a buff the pet has?

[CheeseSandwich]

Peeps on official forums are saying it's a bug, shame, looks bad ass...

The flies would be from the unholy artifact - apocalypse.

Ha ! I knew I saw that...
A guy in the CH had one of those.

That's intriguing. That's good intriguing

Holy shit.... Our beloved Blueberry... Has become a Blackberry! I wants it!

It seems my Voidwalker has spontaneously become "ashen". I have no idea how or when it happened.

Do you PvP at all? I've read it may be the bug of an after-effect of a mage spell.

This is accurate. Hard to replicate, however. Just have a fire mage kill your demon enough times and it should eventually stick.

OMG! I want this!

Blizzard skip the dps QQ and use your time on this pls

[Netherspark]

So does anyone know how to "un-ashen" their voidwalker?

I've tried killing it several times, by sacrifice, by mob, and by sending it to drown in a fatigue zone, but dying simply doesn't remove the effect.

Two ways that could work, both theories.

1. Glyph of the Voidlord

2. Visit the person that changes the name of your demon.

I think this could look good but because of its "foot" not being hidden by particle effects any more, it really does not.
It makes sense that it is the fire mage artifact effect getting stuck though.
