Pretty much this. He even betrayed the night elves (including his brother Malfurion) somehow before you first met him in WC3 and rescue him from an eternity of magical confinement. Although I think the one in WoW was ~corruption~ so I'm not sure if that's really supposed to count.

E: Also if I remember right he basically backstabs the nightelves and Malfurion again in WC3 by infusing himself with even more demon blood again or something. A second time.

I meant to joke about WoD but I guess even if 6.0.1 endgame is fail, there's still Garrison which is way more alternate advancement than Cata offered.

the literal twilight's hammer is just a spell power mace that you loot off cho'gall's corpse

i had it on my druid

like there's some poo poo with forging an ultimate weapon and then they make the twilight's hammer and succeed and there's an elemental or some poo poo, frankly i have no loving clue because it's at the rear end-end of a terrible zone

I hope they fix WoD healing because it looks like butt ATM. No Atonement, no Fistweaving, and it takes way too freaking long to go from 50% to 100% on spammable casts.

Atonement still exists too, its just not competitive. Did they fix the numbers on Fistweaving very recently?

beats the hell outta me, i just thought you meant it doesn't exist anymore

they just did a big buff to mw monks in general to make abilities poo poo out orbs a hell of a lot more often

i don't really give a poo poo about atonement because discipline in general has been bugfuck great since about mid cata and i'm fine with those smug dicks being down a peg for a while
