Warlocks may cast green fire spells in MoP

According to EU CM Wryxian, Blizzard developers are looking into hopefully adding a quest line that will allow warlocks to use green fire in Mists of Pandaria.
Green "fel" fire for warlocks, like they've been asking for since... forever?
It is our hope to introduce a quest which will allow warlocks to unlock the use of green fire. :)

Remember that the key word here is "hope." Even the slightest possibility of green fire in MoP should have most warlocks salivating. This is especially true since Chaos Bolt, which is one of only two green fire spells currently in the game, has been removed from MoP talent calculators. Given that green fire has been one of the most requested features of the class for years and that MoP is an expansion bringing to us loads of vanity choices in glyphs and challenge mode sets, this seems an obvious way to go.

it was about time... paladins get fire rain without asking and locks were stucked with boring red fire?
next on the bitching players agenda: female druid forms

You want them to throw boobs on a bear, cat, chicken, or tree? I don't understand what a female druid form would look like.

Well, a tree form that doesn't have a soul patch would be a helpful start. (Assuming you arent glyphed for the old treant). The rest of the forms are pretty much androgynous though.

What would a female druid form look like? Well first of all, the worgen and tauren cat forms wouldn't have a mane... nor would the bear forms have beards...

I'm still of the opinion that druid forms should remain genderless-- worgen and tauren cat forms have manes because worgen and tauren of both sexes have manes/long hair on their heads.

Oh I love my tauren druid's kitty mane and you'll pry it from her cold, dead hands. I'm just saying, only male lions have manes so that is why people inherently see the cat forms as male. I've seen photoshops of the kitty form as a maneless lioness and it just looks... naked.
That said, I would die happy if my female boomchicken looked remotely like this:

I want a unique model for my ghostwolf form before seeing ANY more additions to druid forms.
Haden Mar 25th 2012 1:59PM
But all druid forms are female, i mean i dont see anything hanging back there. Do you? ...

I cancelled my sub a few months ago and nothing I heard of MoP so far made me want to come back. But green warlock fire? Man, that's what I've been waiting for ever since the world (of warcraft) began. Count me in!

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!! and about time.

Far, far past time.
But still welcome news nonetheless. =)

Joy of joys, it's FINALLY happened! Why it took them 7 years to press the green button on Paint idk, but the overwhelming gratitude makes up for it.
Now what about my warlock tanks?
oakleykid120 Mar 25th 2012 3:40PM
probably for lore reasons.

"they are not listening to us!" That's what I use to read everyday. Now that's all changed.
Haden Mar 25th 2012 2:05PM
What you talking about? There still not listening to us!!! We said purple fire not green! Zmog xD
Shrikesnest Mar 25th 2012 11:09AM
And as a quest reward, too! Awesome!
Andrew Mar 25th 2012 11:15AM
But with this change and warlocks not whining as much, the demand in emo music and black eyeliner will plummet! Green fire will ruin the economy!
Gorgon Mar 25th 2012 11:21AM
This is great!
Another 7 years and demon flight form!?

My warlock has been my main since I started playing in 2008. I guess I'm in the minority on this, but I couldn't care less about green fire. I love the Warlock class, and while I understand why a Warlock would use green fire I would much rather Blizzard do something else with its time like implement female demons or the long-rumored demonic flying mount. Green fire is low on the list for me, personally.
It's great for Blizzard to be listening to its players, don't get me wrong. But when it makes changes I feel should've been made years ago, I'm not going to start praising them. Even the upgraded demons, while nice, are models and skins of demons I've seen too many times in Outland. Again, it's nice for Blizzard to make those changes, but with the amount of time it took for the changes to happen I was really expecting more. I'm still waiting on some really nice surprise so I can say, "wow, that's really cool."

Green fire also takes a lot less time than any of those things. And it's a nice bit of polish they can give 'locks while their art team is hard at work on new player models.
