So, not sure if I’m being silly or not but, why is Purify Disease blue, when magic effects are blue, and Dispel Magic green, when diseases are green or gold?
Also, slightly unrelated, since when cant Priests dispel harmful magic effects on themselves? What’s with this new “Dispel Magic” acting the same as Purge?
They can, but the short cooldown version is only available to Disco and Holy. Purify Disease for Shadow becomes Purify in a healing spec, removing 1 disease and 1 magic effect. Also, every Priest spec has access to Mass Dispel, which removes magic effects.
It was just the colours in Shadow spec that were confusing. But if it does something else in the other two specs, then the colours make sense I guess. Thank you for the reply!
It comes from the time where priest got one 3 kind of dispel.
Dispel magic : Was offensive and defensive at the same time and was blue.
Dispel disease / Abolish Disease : Dispel the disease side (Abolish removed a disease every 3 second) and both were green.
They can and always did. They just changed “how” it worked.
You got one offensive dispel “Dispel Magic” (the green), and one defensive dispel “Purify” (the blue one)
