    In my opinion, they do not live long enough to learn something like that. This isn't backed up by lore, but I don't care, I just really don't like the idea ^_^

    This may break the side of the screen, a bit...

    Arcane shot has never made sense, I hate it.
    But Dwarves are in touch with nature, I mean... they are descended from people made out of Earth. Dwarven Shamans should have been in since the beginning...
    not necessarily. there sure are a few, but just because there are many human priests and paladins, doesn't mean the average population is in touch with the light.
    Also very good.
    But that beauty in the forest one...
    wtb spellbreaker in wow!
    and nice draenei of course :x

    yup, i know.
    very interesting part of the lore imo. and i totally liked the part about undead tanks too, for example all deathknights who are healed by a paladin or priest suffer unimaginable pain to protect their allies. fits my dk tank very well not because she is such a good person, but because she surpresses all mental and physical feelings in order to reach her goal(s).

    Basically they suffer so they don't die.

    Imagine my surprise when I wanted to use that in a story, way before they gave us this new info on the Light, and then hearing their explanation...
    i know that, too

    I need to get my Draenei Paladin sketch up that I drew earlier today. I just need to be bothered.

    They can all wield the Light, but it hurts like hell. The reason why they can't be pallies is that while a priest channels the power, acting like a 'funnel' for it (most recent source: The Shattering), a paladin fills themselves like a vessel (source: Tides of Darkness).

    Basically, a Forsaken paladin using the Light would CC themselves. However, a mind-controlled undead paladin can still do it (Zeliek for example) because while the mental pain is there, it's not their mind that issues orders to the body.
    actually both can do both... priests fill themselves with the light (inner fire, for instance) and paladins can funnel it (while healing others)... you fill yourself with it to enhance yourself and funnel it to reach others...

    the real reason is: lorewise, the number of holy forsaken is absurdly low... kinda... REAL REAL rare... so while forsaken priests can be both holy (lorewise rare) and shadow (lorewise abundant), paladins can only be holy... so there would just be not enough to make a playable class... their numbers would pale in comparison to draenei shamans (which are, lorewise, few)... so it's not viable... at least not now since the forsaken are, as a group, going through the darkest path possible...

    my theory is that by the end of the expansion or the next the forsake will know redemption just like the blood elves... and than we'll have a group of forsaken paladins who are trying to open the way for the light to be able to reach the forsaken... as few as draenei shamans, but at least enough to make a playable class...
    I want to have daughters... but if I end up having sons I'll raise them like this X3

    However, a Forsaken priest will never let the Light fill them.

    As for paladins, they have to allow the Light to use them as a vessel. It's among other things the source of their auras, and gives them strength beyond their physical capabilities.

    while i agree with most of that, i think inner fire is actually not filling the priest with the light, but just a mental ability that priests use to strengthen their wills. it's a discipline spell after all, and most likely just a term they use for the overall mental strengh of the priest, instead of them filling their self with holy fire.

    The Elf versus Cat, Illidan and Kael, and Dwarf versus Tauren are brilliant.
    The last one is... what the fuck? Is that Bellinda? WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO HER!? >=7

    according to the dialog, I'd say she took too many potions to higher her armor and be able to tank...

    It sounds to me like a play on the fact that Balinda is so easy to kill you don't need to tank her (apparently) which is one of the reasons that I always defend her.
    But, this picture is weird, and ruins her. It looks disgusting, and she is crying ='[
    I dislike, and will now have to draw her as she should be - powerful, pretty, and calm.

    Levitate doesn't do... that. And she isn't a priest.
    Dalliah has a few reposts, but they are all good ^_^

    If you kill my beloved... it will only be because I am not there. You are on the American servers right? Well that is an alternate dimension or some such nonsense, so nothing you do there matters.

    Don't forget we could have done the Second World War without you! ^_^

    As for Dark Side, the amount of times I have saved her, just me, I feel I have to do it...

    Fixed my typo, and there's nothing you can do about it from all the way over there. ~Lysah
