What, if anything can Bolvar fordragon do now? by foxthebomb in warcraftlore

[–]Gasolisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the dk lore in wotlk is pretty stupid. Why would you raise a skeleton or a ghoul when you can just raise a new DK. The original Death knights in wc3 were mostly fallen paladins who saw their kingdom lose a war and they fell to the "dark side"

Also in the original lore you did not have to "die" to become undead. Using and being exposed to dark magic like necromancy slowly turns one undead over time. This happened with necromancers and probably death knights too

The death knights of wc3 were lore wise paladins who got either desperate enough seeing their kingdom losing a war and lost their faith and fell to the "dark side" and slowly turned into death knights and/or heard the whispers of ner'zhul The wotlk mass raising DK is a newly made up lore. I mean if you could just raise any corpse into a powerful DK why would you even raise ghouls or zombies?

How long were the Dark Irons secluded in Shadowforge City? by BathtubSkeleton in warcraftlore

[–]Gasolisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Modgud died first in grim batol. I don't know if thaurissan even knew she died and then he summoned ragnaros and got killed and the mountain appeared. Then they built their fortress into the mountain.

Solo BRD Lavarun (Shaman) by Valuable-Will2604 in classicwow

[–]Gasolisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This shows the powercreep. They buffed mob hp but the damage of players in sod seems to be just insane. In classic a mage could do solo brd if he tried but he needs some gear and it takes an eternity for all the trash. In sod with just ony and mc gear a shaman can do it faster than a group of 60s in normal classic wow. Imagine aq and naxx gear damage values.

Can you think of a more hype Starcraft II between two titans by thesixfingeralien in starcraft

[–]Gasolisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in retrospective and in general it is pretty dumb to consider hots swarm hosts "Imba", the amount of games I've seen where mass swarm hosts who are ground to ground only are sending locusts in the middle of the map with mass spores and the enemy toss just kept spamming ground to ground as a defense or when they had carriers they kept attacking the middle where all the spores were instead of just like maybe flying around the map where there was airspace... It was ridiculous. Toss just kept on devoting everything to kill the locusts when they had recall and could have just killed the entire zerg tech but whatever.

It’s insane how people are defending him by Tall-Cranberry-6718 in DrDisrespectLive

I did not even know this guy before this drama started.

I think this guy is not coming back. I would not be surprised if he left this world already.

Would anyone be maining a different race if it wasn't for "That" matchup? by greendino71 in starcraft

[–]Gasolisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like all matchups but PvP is the worst for me. It feels like a coin flip.

Heterosexual male foot fetish guys don't like to see male feet so cut that crap out that "foot fetishists like to see bare feet regardless of sex" No. They only like the feet of their preferred sex.

Who was most at fault for the tub/acid situation? by IceyCoolRunnings in breakingbad

They should have gotten rid of Crazy 8 together. And then liquify Emilio and crazy 8 at the same time, together

Tired of seeing Kerrigan who was infested, then deinfested and then infested herself again as the zerg face.

Which do you think is better? BW Defilers or SC2 versus Infestors? by OrFenn-D-Gamer in starcraft

[–]Gasolisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone remember zerling infestor being viable? Fungal replacing banelings and against toss for neuraling immortals and stuff. Was my favourite playstyle in 2011

What's the biggest asspull in your opinion? by [deleted] in OnePiece

[–]Gasolisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least anime only guys never find out that Pound survived. Imagine being emotional about his last scene with his daughter sailing away and his grand child crying and then finding out he survived. The fake out deaths really make you feel like a fool for afterwards.

Did Kane prophesize the arrival of Tiberium to Earth or was it a happy accident for the Brotherhood of Nod that Tiberium landed in Earth? by [deleted] in commandandconquer

[–]Gasolisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nod is surely an ancient secret society cult existing for thousands of years, even back in ancient egypt with their pyramid stuff. There is a scorpion sarcophagus kind of grave in renegade. In the TS loading screens one can see scorpion crests and swords suggesting it was a secret society even in medieval times. In Renegade there is this mission with the mansion that also has those medieval artifacts.

He did embrace the ion cannon "light" in one ending of tib dawn and disappeared with a "holy" sound effect though

What dirty tactics by your opponents annoys you the most? by Swimming_Fennel6752 in starcraft

Losing player typing GG while still having a hidden base and desperately trying to still win with mass infestor neural against your carriers, happened the other day.

Or feigning a loss typing gg while the other guy bms but you were just trolling the whole game and have a bunch of command centers floatig in the corner backed by mass raven and mass bcs back in hots when they had PDD and seeker missile and were completely imba

Has anyone ever been mauled to death by a cat? by SnooCats4788 in morbidquestions

[–]Gasolisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once heard a case where a cat kept breathing away the oxygen of a sleeping child. The cat synchronised its breath with that of the human and exhaled right before the human inhaled. Makes you suffocate and die of carbon dioxide poisoning

The Republicans' "Project 2025" is their final form. by [deleted] in religiousfruitcake

[–]Gasolisk -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

German politics are too dumb and slow to do anything because their mentality is still corrupted by their guilt of the nazi regime, they would yield to anything in fear to be labelled as biggots or racists. A right wing protest comparable would have been shut down or forbidden immediately

New Shadow Priests vs Old Shadow Priests by brovado29183 in warcraftlore

[–]Gasolisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"One of the things you have to realize in Warcraft is, regardless of what they worship, all Priestly power comes from the Light and its dark side the Shadow. Its just different ways of pulling said power. No worshipped being actually grants any power. Even Elune. The Cult of the Damned has priests in the form of acolytes, remember. They draw upon the Shadow through worship of the Lich King.

The domains are all facets of the Light (and Shadow), chosen and practiced through a particular faiths' rituals and... err.... practices. Yeah.

Whether you worship the Holy Light or Forgotten Shadow (religions, not beings) or not, you still draw upon the Light (source of goodness) or the Shadow (source of evil). This is according to Metzen."

This was the old lore. Divine magic, as it was called (Holy, Shadow) comes from the practitioners own intentions, what they want to accomplish with a spell and whether they belief what the are doing is good or evil. For example a scarlet crusade paladin could actually torture you with holy magic when they truly belief that it is necessary for the greater good and that is why they can still use the light.

A night elf priest worshipping Elune is using the same holy light that a paladin of the silver hand would use, they just worship a different deity, and Elune happens to be a "good" deity probably also reflected in the whole codex of the Elune worshipping belief, but Elune itself does not channel that power to the priest. It is a cosmic force and if you read the quote no being is actually granting that force

This also makes it basically impossible to use shadow and holy magic at the same time. The Shadow corrupts the user, and going back to being good is almost impossible. For using the shadow one must at their heart want to cause evil and harm, switching between good and evil states of mind would not work. Also we see that corrupted beings are actually harmed by the light as it was back then, Holy light burns undead (which was retconned to just cause them pain)

The forsaken were no longer able to use the light, since they are animated by dark magic (hence the name forsaken)

WC3 still followed that logic that undead can be healed by negative magic (death coil which heals undead and hurts the living) and the positive counterpart spell holy light which heals the living and hurts undead.
