World of Warcraft Redditor LawsuitEsq has crafted an eloquent answer to the question Felguard demons have been asking their Warlock masters over and over again since 2007. âOh, I donât know Zhevdarr. Take a wild fucking guess who summoned you. Again.âÂ
I didnât dabble much in the Warlock class until last yearâs Legion expansion pack, but it doesnât take long to get tired of the Felguardâs bullshit. When a Warlock summons a demon, they are essentially paired for life. The demon gets a name, and from there on out thatâs the demon who arrives when the call is put forth. So yeah, I feel LawsuitEsqâs frustration.
âEveryday with this bullshit Zhev. Itâs not even everyday itâs every time I fly anywhere. You were just near me, summoned, as usual, and I gave you a cat nap into the Nether realm of forgetfulness apparently and when you pop back out itâs the same question. YES I SUMMONED YOU.â
Why do Felguards gotta be like that? I like to imagine theyâre sort of like Dory from Finding Nemo, and every summon feels like the first time. LawsuitEsq has their own ideas. Â
âAre you seeing other Warlocks on the side? Is this just some diversity quota where we needed the first alcoholic demon to include everyone? Surprise asshole its ME AGAIN and I will keep summoning you until the devs give me a lone wolf style talent. So buckle up buttercup, Iâm dragging your half-wit ass through everything and no matter how many times you ask âWho Dares Summon Meâ IT WILL ALWAYS BE ME.â
In truth the Felguard voice is a carry over from the voice of the Doomguard, which in vanilla World of Warcraft was a very special demon that required a sacrifice to call forth and would often go out of control, randomly killing innocent mailbox dancers. Iâd say an update is in order, but itâs been a decade now, and Warlocks have gotten used to it. Weâll fight alongside the Felguard, but we donât have to like it.
Or as LawsuitEsq puts it: âtl;dr Fuck Zhevdarr.â
