Loa thread!

Unread post by Jeydis »

Not exactly hunter specific but I was so happy to see all the work they did on the Loas in this expansion and I wanted to see what you guys though! Any favorites/screenshots/art?

((this is a thinly veiled attempt at getting more Jani art, Hekhekhekhek))

Jani is amazing <3 He has such a great voice, all hail the trash father. :lol:

But Rezan is probably my personal favourite. :D

Loa probably aren't terribly concerned with gender, but he's referred to with male pronouns by the Zandalari! The city has a little Loa ceremony every hour or so that celebrates them. :)

(I also have a sneaking suspicion that he might be voiced by Richard Horvitz, who did the voice of Invader Zim (and some other characters in WoW recently). Mostly it's the laugh once you turn in a quest to Jani that makes me hear it.)

Jani's voice is annoying.


Gonk is cool cus his name is so silly XD

Bwonsamdi is cool.

But Hakkar the Blood god is the best!

I like Pa'ku. I found it funny when she told me to do a "leap of faith" and then she cackled at me when I did :D
Also, "That's.... unfortunate" or something of the sort related to Mythrax.
And, finally, my character running to her yelling "HELP!" with a baby pterrodax.

Jani is close second - how else can you throw stinkbombs at Nesingwary or bite someone in the ass or steal a boot?

Bwonsamdi is easily my favorite character of this xpac. Jani was a ton of fun too. Glad I did his achievement.

Bwonsamdi is certainly one of my favorites... Jani however, quickly won me over.

My alt hunter troll tames are all named after Loa. I need to make a few adjustments since now we know what a few of the animals are. Like, I don't think it was mentioned that Kimbul was a tiger before BfA as the info on him was very sparse. I need Kimbul's model like WOAH. I also can't wait for Jani's color to be available to tame. Ffff.

Kimbul, Gonk, Bwonsamdi and Jani have all my <3. Jani and Bwonsamdi are amazing.

I don't main Horde but honestly... Jani. Hands freaking down JANI.

I love Jani. I was cracking up at first that there was a Loa of trash (so many jokes in my guild over this) but then I found out.. Jani looks over all things "thrown away" including orphans. OH MY HEART.

So, hands down Jani all the way!

All this about loas is making me want to get my Horde toon out. I haven't touched Horde side yet, since I need to be gearing my main, but the temptation is strong! I haven't met any other than a shark and Jani the trash raptor, but I'm pretty sure I would love the trash raptor best of all regardless.

Oh man, would A+ recommend running through Horde side if you like Loa! You get to help quite a lot of them! Plus, every time you die, you get to get snarked at by Bwonsamdi!

Does he do that for alliance too?

Yep yep. He made quite a few remarks about the stench of Demon Hunters when I was in Zandalar on my Night Elf.

That, and comments like "I didn't expect ya here so soon."

Yep! When I die on my Hunter he says something like "You be tryin' to Feign Death? *TSK* Mon..."

It's insulting but so very very funny. He said something sarcastic about Healthstones to my lock friend when they died lol

My first encounter with Bwonsamdi was on my dwarf: I ran through a pack of things, tried to feign, died anyway. And he says "Ya be tryin ta feign death, mon? Shaaaame" I about died, because I didn't know of the snark yet :D
