@BaalTheWarlock Even more wild because from rise of the horde through vanilla the Horde felt like the definitive good guys the vast majority of the time.
@FauxmarJL Disc shielding being so incredibly busted is part of why they were reworked to full atonement. It was very much their primary source of healing in WoD
@FauxmarJL@lunaire_rndm Disc was predominantly a shield healer b4 Legion. Atonement existed as a way to do damage without losing as much throughout and in some situations was v viable but it wasn’t the primary gameplay loop the spec was built on.
@AquaPani Every person talking about how Pokemon can afford it etc would be bitching so hard at how long it would take for a new game to come out. Like I’m fine waiting on games but that many animations would take foreeeever
@BaalTheWarlock We don’t even need to be physically at war with each other. Political/trade war works as well. It’s the distinct factions and the tension. Also gameplay choices don’t *need* crazy lore justification. That’s the big thing that got fucked up w/x faction gameplay.
@lofibanshee@rystrave The auth bag was even funnier because people without it didn’t get messed up. I was just vibing and playing while friends were borked
@that_kind_oforc@BaalTheWarlock It’s so frustrating as someone who wanted cross faction gameplay to see them fundamentally misunderstand the assignment and heavily alter the lore to fit it. Like no we just want to play with our friends. It doesn’t need story justification.
@DalaranCrater@Portergauge Ignoring that belt civilians were killed in that quest too.
But also the divine bell wasn’t exactly something they did willingly. Garrosh forced them into it.
@Ainastrasza@faelures_ If they really want to triple down make using holy abilities deal 1 damage to the caster or smthing (outside of instanced content so it’s just a flavor thing) but yeah there’s plenty of lore on it.
@ZephylTheToxic@takhsick Did *you* play early WoW? Because the alliance actively worked against them when they were at their lowest. Meanwhile the horde (including their former ranger general) provided assistance and support. There are also plenty of stories abt the belves becoming closer w/horde races
