Disable purple effect for shadowpriests

Please add a glyph to disable/elssen the effects of shadow form. I dont think anyone playing shadowpriest wants to look like a purple cloud. I want people to see my transmog.

When flying in Shadowform it looks like your char is constantly releasing moist farts.

It’s why I chose a warlock alt instead of shadow priest. Couldn’t stand being in shadow form all the time.

+1 i don’t like that SP effect… i want to see my character in all of its glory.

I use the toy from Drustvar to replace/make the effect different.

There is already such a glyph.

Never liked the effect of the shadowform :confused:

That barely does anything

Do what i do… turn off shadow form.

If your farts are purple you need to call an ambulance.

Had to check if my char has it… it does.
Still looks annoying at that point.

Indeed…

I would also like a glyph to hide the purple body fog, you never see your transmog and look like an toxic waste cloud.

Give us a glyph for the classic shadowform look

I agree with this. The shadowform is cool for a little while, in the beginning. But it’d be nice to have the option to toggle it on and off. I mean surely that is a small fix for the developers.

My priest is a Lightforged Draenei so doubley so. I would like a Light forged version.
Or as you suggest an option to not show it.

How can a LD be a shadow priest?

You go into the Specialization section of the Talents window…

It’s called a shadow priest for a reason, you know…
Also, it can be turned off while not in a dung etc…

I’m obviously in a minority, possibly a minority of one. I like my purple cloud - it makes us stand out from other classes/specs and it’s part of our identity. Personally I have little interest in transmog so am happy my non matching clothes aren’t on public display, though I know a lot of people do care about that. A ‘good’ glyph would work so I could stay happily how I am and everyone else can glyph or not as they want.

Cheers, Pwnie. I shall now think of that every time I’m flying :sob:

I think they should just introduce more choice via glyphs or some other means. Lots of people have their favourite looks when it comes to the purple effect.

Hey you stolen a druid topic :smiley:

I made my first priest because I thought shadow form was so cool. I would not use such glyph on my priest but I understand others might want to.

I think there’s a glyph that reduces the effect of shadowform. However, I’d also appreciate a glyph for alternative appearance / disabling the effect. If moonkin can choose, shadow priest should be able to do so, too.

Personal suggestion: Since demon hunters have demon wings, I’d always thought that maybe feathered wings for priest would be a nice idea. Holy / Disc might get white feathered wings, shadow priest black ones or some made of shadow. At least a partial shadow accessorie wouldn’t consume the whole character.
