an FAQ has information on whatever source, lore or otherwise the questiosn are asked on, and it doesnt indeed have some lore, the books being ancient reduces their creadability in a world thats evolving for years, even if some information it uses has not been directly reconned.Al ot of it is, Warlocks use a lot of shadow magic, so no the LK cannot summon demons he wouldnt want to summon such weaklings, he has infnite necromancy so hell prob just resurrect Archimonde and use him as a slave, but either way their using shadow powers which was my point jsut like Warlocks do, all their curses are shadow powers for example and their shadow bolt.
ive not specualted anything, what do you mean to support what speculation? that fact LK can take over minds? ive shown you him taking over minds many times.
That FAQ is on an official site, the most official source you can prob get, its also new....regardless if its not a piece of storyline its the most official source you can prob get for Blizzard and it wins through as a source. It doesnt say in comparison to human beings its in his storyline, which unfortaltey neither Aman'thul, aspect or any other being that ive read been named "All powerful", if you like using sources from RPG book then i can and that background information is as lorewise as you can get in that RPG book.
What line of thinking? the official site of WOTLK is new, the fact still remains the old BLizzard site has not been updated, if their pointing to the RPG books who knows what information their pointing to as good lore because the books are old and have some retconned information does that mean Blizzard losing their marbles? no ofc not, their just not updating the website which therefore imo makes the elderly RPG books not as creadable as the WOTLK official site or otherwise, new information even if not every character has been changed.
What fictional character? what are you talking about, the RPG background information is not from a ficitonal character, the FAQ is not a fictionla character so what do you mean? if your talking about Brann Bronzebeard hes basically the avatar of whoever is writing the new books, so technically he is not a fictional character, just a fictional name. Just like Bob filtch is the writing of the old books.
At least the Books contains lore information which is more then can be said for a FAQ. Again would you care to find me a single source that stats that a FAQ can be consideret canon, because since you feel that you are entitled to disagree with a Official site that stats that the RPG's is canon then I believe I'm just as entitled to ask you for proof, especially since the FAQ is posted on a website that belongs to Worldofwarcraft which was where I found my proof.
Thats just as much necromancy as it's Warlock Magic, Warlock magic is the ability to summon outer world beings such as the infernals, and the Doomguards which is hardly weaklings
These monstrous, fiery warriors are nearly immune to magic and can defeat entire armies with their sheer strength aloneMoM 115
When mortals recall the brutal terror of the Burning Legion’s armies, they likely think first of the doomguard. These ironfisted demons serve as the Burning Legion’s captains and generals. Countless worlds have fallen to their brilliant and ruthless military tactics. A doomguard’s prowess at commanding large-scale battles does not reduce the demon’s hunger for personal combat. In any conflict, a doomguard brings its powerful demonic abilities to where they can do the most damage, viciously slaughtering enemy troops or personally eliminating a bothersome mage. While most doomguard remain unquestioning and loyal servants to the lords of the Burning Legion (nathrezim and pit lords, among others), some ascend to this tier of command themselves and are among the most powerful demons in the Legion. In fact, most demons that remain in Azeroth after the failure of the second invasion are now under the control of various doomguard lords, ruling from such places as Jaedenar, Mannoroc Coven, and the Tainted ScarMG 37 & 38
Please don't try to discredit Demons they are in all aspects far more powerful then the undeads.
You have not shown him taking over a mind that 1. Actively resist him 2. Has Magical Barriers 3. Is higher ranking in intelligence then a Ice Troll.
The Most official source I can get is that site yes, however I have never in my life looked at a FAQ as any kind of reliable lore, the story concerning the Dungeon and the Lich King is Lore, no question about it, but the other part isn't lore, since again what does it contains regarding the lore except those 10 words?
Not every Character, again show me how many of the Characters in Shadows and Light and the other books that have actually undergone major retcons, show me examples of the Books being outdated else I will happily make this again "A official Blizzard site that says RPG = Lore>your Opinion" and again the site that contains information about the game is a site that belongs under the Worldofwarcraft.com, which means they have had there hands on that site very recently ore have there hands on it, why not change it then? Again because they see no reason to do so.
Those two things cannot in any way be put next to each other, The RPG for instance contain's facts end of story, Bronzebeard is a fictionel character that exist in the game the thought of comparing him to a writer is not just, just like you will not accept what Korialstrasz is saying which you have to by your own logic since he is basically just a figur for the writer.
