*shrug* The Night Elves started worshipping the Light instead of Elune.

Though they still had abilities that referenced Elune, their voice lines still talked about the Light.

The Paladins are kinda like a cult tbh. Lol.

Aponi joined the Silver Hand, and as such, she started worshipping the Light.

The rest of the Sunwalkers still worship An'she. Aponi ceased being a Sunwalker when she joined the Silver Hand.

It was literally a requirement to join the Silver Hand that you had to worship the Light. Did you not do the follower quest with the Night Elf?
Aponi is still listed as the leader of the Sunwalkers (whom all supported the Silver hand) and is no longer affiliated with the Silver Hand. She was never forced nor required to believe in the Light in order to join the Silver Hand. It was restablished to fight the Burning Legion and supported by the major Paladin orders: Sunwalkers, Blood Knights, the Hand of Argus, and remnants of the Argent Crusade. The only reason that Aponi is now revering the Light is that Blizz has possibly forgotten or just retconned the fact that the Sunwalkers believe in An'she and that his power is seperate from the Light. This was a big deal across many lore forums since the Sunwalkers were the most unique of Paladins, but were homogenized for no real reason.

Delas Moonfang wasn't required to worship the Light. She chose on her own to become a Paladin; having believed that her education was incomplete.

I think it was a side effect from the tranquilizer that Godfrey used when they captured the character after it had been bitten ;)

Hey just wanted to thank you Cow for this suggestion - I've been running magisters terrace over and over on normal for rep and has taken no time at all! I mainly went because I could get a pet + 2 reps at once (shattered sun offensive + silvermoon). Think i'm like 2 runs off exalted after only an hour or so! So if anyone else needs rep for their heritage sets (and boosted a toon like me) hit it up! :headbang:

Blizz posted that Kul Tirans can be Mages, albeit they are uncommon. Zandalari cannot be Warlocks (listed that they could) since they have no connection to the Fel.

Soggoth the Slitherer, the giant Faceless One in Darkshore (that had a sword in its head), has been fully awakened.

So I was right, the quests in the prepatch that exclaimed "The Horde have taken the Master's Glaive!" was the Horde stealing the sword, not occupying the area.

Possibly. The sword is no where to be seen. The Twilight's Hammer is all over the place and a named Twilight Prophet is standing on the cliff near the Faceless One.

I'd assume the Twilight's Hammer would have something to do with it seeing as they've been the ones who tried back in Cata to wake him. Mainly because why would waking him up be good for the Horde? It would not be.

Guess the whole "sword in skull" thing was only a flesh wound.

Something something... that is not dead which can eternal lie, and in strange aeons even death may die.

It's funny. He probably lay buried and mostly-dead for thousands of years, biding his time, patiently planning his revenge, only to wake up in the middle of a war and be repeatedly killed as a loot pinata :D

So... Spirit Mend officially "to the ground"....

Technically it's probably still the best, but, the heal is so small now that other choice may be a lot better..

Since we've had an update and a new PTR update too, have they fixed Spirit Mend or is it still nerfed?
