From the official wow site for blood elfs
"At the bidding of his new master, the wayward prince eventually returned to Azeroth and seized the site of the Sunwell, hoping to use the fount as a means to usher Kil’jaeden into the world. Ultimately, Kael’thas was slain before his recklessness could bring ruin to Azeroth. In the wake of Kil’jaeden’s defeat, the draenei prophet Velen purified the Sunwell with the Light-infused heart of a fallen naaru, transforming the fount into a source of both holy and arcane energies."
they say the sunwell is literally holy and arcane energies.
there, proof.
woo.
Funny how some people say: your paladins based on just a npc. Well gg they are the only zandalari trolls in game which we got in mop, outside of that is all outdated (not saying this about the trolls in legion)
Why does there need to be a representation of holy light?
That's not what makes blizz decide what gets to become a paladin or not, it's your own mind-canon that you're turning into an argument because you fail ANY proof that there are ANY loa that use HOLY magic which makes a paladin.
For fucks sake, you're thick-skulled.
You need holy magic for a paladin.
no holy magic = no paladin.
wow.
hard concept.
Idc about representation of the light, I care about WHAT makes a paladin a paladin.
And zandalari trolls have ZERO access to holy magic.
Nah, the fact that there were no player race Zandalari Paladins before Zandalari were even a player race or Zandalar was even ingame obviously means Zandalari Paladins don't real.

I'm not thick-skulled, I am challenging your assertion.
And your ehh - funny headcanons.
First off good job ignoring everything and just claiming mental gymnastics. I wanted more evidence.
Second free thinkers aren't even paladins and completely different than prelates:

Third I showed you tons of more reasons why void elf demon hunters should be playable than a single mob and yet you are still crying about Zandalari "Paladins" needing to be in game.
If they can make a Raptor wild god, they can make a light loa. Here's what they had in the Warcraft RPG that they could easily re-adapt and expand on for BFA

You only need faith in an idea to use the light afaik, that's how Goblin priests are justified. Any sufficiently zealous Zandalari adherent of any given Loa should in theory be able to use light based abilities.
