Ditto. That'll just heal everyone.

Draenei priests perform an exorcism in Hellfire Peninsula, a Human Priest does one in Wintergarde.

The spell also is especially affective vs Undead and Demons.

Wait, I didn't understand the context

Oh. :\

So they changed the Warcraft III version, so that it no longer does damage to the Undead? Well. Maybe "the Light" discovered a newfound respect for them. Kind of bizarre, but the world does continue to spin.

There probably is a way to detect possession, but the question is whether or not the Horde would actually either have access to the methods, and whether not they would actually use them.

Of course, they could just be randomly tipped off by the elemental spirits or whatever.

He's talking about the concept of exorcism -that is, a ritual banishing demons - rather than the spell that shares the same name.

Though I suppose they could just try using Control Undead or Shackle Undead.

It's a retcon, not an evolving position of the Light.

Lies! Human Crossbowmen and Orc Spearmen remain the ultimate power of the universe!

Which leads to a retcon that reduces the Light's effectiveness against undead.

No, Exorcism still always crits against undead. CDev answers says Light causes undead physical pain.

You can't deduce lore from game mechanics like that.

It causes pain, but not damage unless it's wielded in a damaging way.

That's no different from fire.

Technically, it's no different from practically anything except maybe plutonium. I'm not entirely sure what your point is.

Cdev has said that Undead using the Light is "self destructive" no matter how it's used. So yes, it causes damage in some way no matter how it's used.

You realize that a wound can't be cauterized UNLESS damage is caused, right?

And that contradicts what I said?

You're ignoring the word "effectively" again.

Not really, no.

You're ignoring the word "cauterizes" again.

Luckily, an ally brought up a different point:

And Cdev also says that using the Light is self destructive.

Which means that there's destruction involved.

They may not disintegrate or explode but that doesn't mean that there's no damage.

That damage manifesting solely in the form of pain.

Pain isn't damage. Pain is benign. You can induce pain in someone simply by stimulating the right parts of the brain.

Pain is indicative of damage. You can't have it without damage, and besides, the quote goes out of its way to avoid explicitly saying "It doesn't cause the Forsaken any damage."

CDev explicitly said that it isn't destructive. New lore trumps old lore.

No they didn't. They said that Forsaken priests don't disintegrate or explode from channeling the Light. That doesn't mean it's not destructive. The same people who posted that Ask Cdev posted the one I'm citing.

So we know it's self-destructive but we also know that it doesn't cause them to disintegrate or explode. I don't see where the conflict is.
