Hand of Gul'dan Icon

[Lizl]

This is kind of a pointless rant, caused by my horrible case of OCD, but why is Hand of Gul'dan's icon , a fire-themed nasty red-and-orange thing? Since its animation is a purple, shadowy meteor, and it does SHADOW damage, shouldn't it have an icon that fits the theme of the spell?

make a macro with a different icon, fixed .

Or, just change the icon yourself.

Getting locked out of fire spells also locks out hand of guldan. Not sure why but it's considered a fire spell even though it does shadow damage.

Now that seems interesting, I think both points are valid and could warrant a look into by Blizzard. =P

I think the idea is that its a firey boulder ripped from the sky by dark energy. Thus the impact is shadow, with shadowy residue on the ground, but the effect (refresh immolate) is fire.

Debatable, but I'd love to see Blizzard's stance on this as well.

Blizzard decided to work on the new warlock spells one day after a wild party, they probably sniffed a lot of blow from tits that nite..

Make a macro with the icon of your choice. Fill the text with /cast Hand of Guldan. Lovely jubbly.

I put a bug report in, either the icon + school lockout is incorrect, or the school of damage it does is.
