I think in Star Wars extended universe Luke Skywalker gets emerald force lightning.

I am intrigued. I am not sure I like the monk-class on first glance, but warlock is neat. Guess Sophyra can finally satisfy her dark craving for quality tea with some like-minded individuals!...and enlighten those damned asians in the ways of proper philosophy!

And damned, siege of orgrimmar. Exaythe will be there, evil warchief gotta go! PAYBACK FOR EVERYTHING! For Southshore, for Andorhal, for Theramore for OLD BLANCHY!

Ying-yang shit was too tricky? All right, cool, we'll throw out the yang (or ying, whatever). That means we dont have to deal with yiffy dark energies anymore!

I mean Chi, Light, what's the difference, right? What's in a name? The dutch word for "Light" is "Licht", which is just basicly "Chi+L" !

Healing spec? Tea spec! I mean look at some of these abilities:

Cherry Mana Tea (LVL 56)
Channeled
Requires Serpent Stance
For each 3 Chi you consume, you gain a charge of Mana Tea.
Use Mana Tea to consume the charges. Each charge restores 5% of you maximum mana. Mana Tea must be channeled, lasting 1 second per stack. Mana Tea can stack up to 50 times.
Cancelling the channel will not waste stacks.

"All right guys, hang on, I'm running low on mana. Let me put the kettle on"
*Sounds of the party getting maimed and eviscerated. Howls of pain can be heard as detached limbs soar trough the air and blood spurts up in fountains*
"Who wants some delicious cherry tea? Dohohohohoho!"

And if that wasn't enough to win you over, we get force lightning, bitches!

Crackling Jade Lightning
600 Mana, 40 yard range, Channeled
Channels Jade Lightning at the target, causing 4,116 Nature damage over 5.50 seconds.
If the enemy attacks you within melee range while victim to Crackling Jade Lightning, they are knocked back a short distance. This effect has an 8 second cooldown.

Um...might I ask where on the site u saw these? I can't seem to find these anywhere on the battlenet or press details...

And aye, the Siege of Orgrimmar should be interesting indeed. Wonder who the new Warchief's going to be? And who says Blizzard is Horde biased? *looks over at the direction of the Theramore destroyed posts* happy now?

This is the most adorable thing ever!

But pokémon battles guiisssss!!!!!

"What's more, you will also have a brand-new way to add more pets to your collection. In addition to purchasing pets or getting them as item drops, you can now also encounter and capture vanity pets in the wild. If you run into one of these rare pets, you can have your own pet challenge it; if you manage to defeat the wild pet, you will capture it and add it to your collection! Wild pets have stats that vary slightly, so you may end up catching an exceptionally powerful pet. Keep your eyes open!"

This is just so much win!!

by **erwtenpeller** Mon Mar 19, 2012 10:10 am

Garrosh as final boss is also made of win. He's a prick. Very Happy

VANITY GLYPHS! LOTS OF THEM! OH MY GOOD GRACIOUS GOOOODSSS

Glyph of the Stag: Your Travel Form now appears as a Stag and can be used as a mount by party members.

Oh.... My... fucking... god...

Also, Bubblehearth is now canon!

"No new race models are ready to be added yet."

- Press Tour

"No new race models yet, but they're working on it. At best, dwarves might have been ready for the MoP release."

- Tom Chilton

And just like that, my interest is back to zero.

Off to Guild Wars 2 it is then..

by **Zouyo** Mon Mar 19, 2012 10:32 am

OH boo hoo. So the race models dont get an update in this one. Do you realise how much work is needed to re-rig a model to allow for the new Monk class and its moves? And on top of that you're wanting new race models as well whilst they're working on all the new enemies, locales, gear, and all the other stuff that goes with the new glyphs and spells.

Honestly, I do wish ppl would -stop- whining about "Oh no new race models, I'm going to quit." /facedesk then flip the desk

by **erwtenpeller** Mon Mar 19, 2012 10:36 am

How 'bout FLIP THE DESK WITH YOUR FACE?? Very Happy

I understand there´s perhaps not enough time to do it all, but it´s a matter of preference, to me the models are more important than let´s say, questing, I honestly loath questing, so I´d rather have new models over any new questing areas.

I like the questing experience myself, mainly for lore and story....but I see where you're coming from.

I'll let you off the hook this time.

Literally the only thing that ticks me off is that pandas cant be warlocks. An evil panda wizard would just be... Delicious.

I agree, especially because warlocks used to be in the line-up of the classes available to Pandas.

by **erwtenpeller** Mon Mar 19, 2012 10:52 am

Then again.... We don't need a warlock to be able to play an evil wizard now do we?

We can do that by mage. By priest. Fuck it, even by shaman if you have to.

by **Dréfurion** Mon Mar 19, 2012 10:56 am

It's still a kick in the teeth they just removed them from the line-up... especially because the new talent tree and abilities has me really interested in playing a warlock...

But yes, maybe I shall make my handsome belf priest a wicked fudgley Panda Sha lover.

by **erwtenpeller** Mon Mar 19, 2012 10:58 am

It makes sense. In this whole lore thing peope tend to somehow value, bad emotions make scary creatures. I'd imagine emo locks to summon a whole bunch of 'dem shady shas 'n stuff.

by **Dréfurion** Mon Mar 19, 2012 11:01 am

Which, and this is off-topic, blizzard should do more off: Race-class specific animations.

For example, a nelf priest should have more moonlight coloured spell effects, and Pandaren warlocks (who should be in-game!!) should summon Sha-beings instead of demons.

by **Zouyo** Mon Mar 19, 2012 11:02 am

Correct me if I'm wrong, but emos tend to be more about sadness aren't they?
The Sha are created from rage, anger and other strong dark emotions like that.

....And we've got a large scale war between humans and orcs hitting Pandaria.
We're boned.
