In this video I discuss how powerful the Demon Hunters are. Covering their story, from their creation to their involvement in World of Warcraft Legion. I also mention the characteristics and abilities of the demon hunters, comparing them to other classes.

Demon hunters are pretty much the witchers of Warcraft lore. Elite, specially trained, mistrusted forces that fight against the most horrendous creatures.
you mean claymores.
Both the Witcher and Warcraft owe a great deal to the influence of Warhammer and likely, in this case, to the Witch Hunters of Sigmar. While the Witch Hunters would never stand for mutation or magic, they are powerful hunters of evil forces that were born from grueling training, (often fatal), and specialize in hunting down daemonic forces and monsters. The Witcher takes more of a sci-fi approach by adding elements that make the mutation and use of magic seem more probable, while the Demon Hunters are more of a fantasy tribalistic warrior cult. Nonetheless, they all serve very similar purposes, as you have noted, within their own IP.
The first Witcher stories and books were published around the same time as warhammer was starting to get released so im not so sure it was influenced by it.
Sebastian Frisell Some short stories originate to a few years after WHFB issue one, but much of the lore came in about a decade later with the novels. Generally speaking, much of the novelized Witcher lore is about a decade behind Warhammer fluff. Admittedly, much of the subject matter predates both franchises with D&D and Tolkien, and far earlier European lore. However, there are some significant similarities that conveniently cross over, such as the concept of inter-dimensional threat bringing monstrosities into the world, a powerful Holy Roman Empire-inspired Empire, the World's Edge isolating events on a simply named "Continent", which is representative of a Late Medieval/Early Renaissance Europe, with varying social, technological, and military relations with Dwarves, Elves, etc. Of course, the similarities are much looser in The Witcher than in, say, Warcraft. If there was inspiration, it was more generalized.
though DH don't go around spreading STDs to every woman they fuck.
I just started my 1st demon hunter today, and I am very impressed. The combat feels so good, you are so quick and you can easily chain things together. And moving around the world is much easier too. I really like it.
Havoc Demon Hunters are badass.
And we greedy bounty hunters went into the Black Temple to defeat Illidan...
Because shiny loot > Saving the world ._.
Ah that's alright u didn't know
Just quick note. I thought it would be obvious from the title, but I am strictly discussing the lore strengths of classes. The game is an entirely different thing. Just because a certain class might be good or not good in pvp, that has nothing to do with how strong a class is in the lore. Also get lower PING and increase performance with NoPING: nopi.ng/Doronsmovies
more pls
Yes yes yes. Many more.
we need moaaaar
spoken like a true protestant
i hav tested it against full pvp paladin, if i had the same lvl gear no chance other classes could win, DK could be the only ones an anti DH class. they were my 1st duels ever nd the pala nd rogue were experienced. also i just joined wow after prepatch release. i had quit for about 1 year
Anyone else feel like Demon Hunters story is a lot like Grey Warden from Dragon Age?
Jelloz104 aye it is.
Haha damn straight
Yep glad someone else sees it
The similarities are striking now that you mention it. The Grey Wardens and the Witchers are also very similar.
Basically Demon Hunters and Death Knights are the most powerful classes in the game,but among the spellcasters Warlocks are standing out of line...
They're relatively more powerful, but we are not the 'heroes' that the class is modeled off (Arthas, Illidan), and there are more drastic tradeoffs in order to be such a class (undeath, fel). In fact that's what even justifies the 'hero class' title IMO - we need to be heroic individuals in order to counteract the intrinsically dangerous and corrupt natures of being an elite undead, or infused fel being. (Which is part of what makes me wonder that a 'Light' based Hero class might even include a concern that the people of such a class are dangerous in their own way; the Light not necessarily being 'perfect' for the world in all ways.) Also, a super, say, rogue, can still be considered stronger than many death knights, to the point where a rogue killing a crowd of death knights, while implausible, is not at all impossible. Class is a guideline, but never a total determinant. Conversely, death knights by lore are designed to have something of an edge over the living, and demon hunters are technically 'living' in a form, and focused on killing fel/demons over all, so it wouldn't be as much of a surprise to me to see a DK kill a DH compared to the opposite. (Or like, a very Light powered Priest or Paladin against a Death Knight.) Hero classes are a boost in clearer ways, but there's good enough reason beyond gameplay why our playable characters can still slaughter crowds of demon hunters or death knights. They're just DH and DK, not OUR 'hero' DH and DKs ;).
Malcolm Swoboda Wow,just wow.Thanks for explanation man!
You're welcome :). Its just my opinion though. Hero classes are certainly special, but they're designed in the storyline to not be anything like 'godly' classes above all. They just start off at a stronger basis in the expansion they're released in (even monk in MOP was a step down compared to them) and then afterwards are just part of the larger classes tapestry, especially as lore for other classes probably get more elaboration and evolution (stronger mages and magic, more and better rogue tactics, etc etc). After all, technically some titans themselves are like warriors, just of a megapowerful race.
"The demon hunterers" "the spell casterers" gotta love this accent.
ive played every class, want to be a DH main now. Not too complicated, but fun, engaging gameplay which keeps casual players like me going
So basically, Demon hunter are the witchers of the Warcraft universe.
In a sense. Although instead of fighting monsters they are fighting an enemy that wants to destroy the entire universe.
+Doronsmovies i'm pretty sure that monsters in the Witcher universe want to destroy the whole world, they just don't have the power to do it.
Awesome video as always! If you dwell further into this topic make sure to stress that class lore and class gameplay are not 100% the same.
Thank you. I feel like I should have mentioned that a bit more. The lore and the game can be vastly different. In the game there are now a million demon hunters while in the lore they are a very small elite force.
If they grow stronger by killing demons... they have unlimited potential... just like saiyans :D
Super saiyan fel form.
Nah... imagine them more like the Hulk a clock bomb, ready to explode in the face of their allies at any time since they become more demon, that much power get's out of control at some point =/
+Pedro Pereira they are trained to contain it. And if they do lose controlled like that one guy in the DH intro mission. He didn't cause any DMG just died on his own. No bomb.
It's actually limited to the number of demons in existence available to kill combined with their ability to resist the demon.
Jesi Oni I would hunt every demon there was, to become the most powerful being on Azeroth.
Can you do a strongest class list (lore wise) can be very appreciated by many :D
Might do something like that. Although would have to focus on all of the lore classes as opposed to just the playable ones.
You didn't actually compare their skills verses other classes though just basically spell casters...
There are still many questions like... How are they effected by the arcane energies and the holy light? Can they overpower the Scourge and it's abilities from Death Knights?
This was mainly a test episode. If people do like this I could turn it into a series and go into a bit more detail.
I'd like to see more :3 good video as always :D
Doronsmovies
I would love to!!
lore wise arthas>illidan. deathknights are allready dead they counter magic and of course they dont get tired and feal no pain how they can lose to demonhunters :P
Anestis Papadopoulos
Really does depend on on how Fel reacts to Scourge as they are very similar.
I'm sure there are ways to tell how they reacts to each other if you research it.
Not Many Survived. Just 1 million wow players . Kappa
xD
I wonder if warlocks can enslave a demon hunter considering demon hunters have the soul of a demon inside them.
Btw nice video! I hope you make this into a series with other classes! :)
No. They could enslave the demon's essence. But that'd just mean the demon would irritate the piss out of the hunter to attempt to get the hunter to submit control, as usual.
The demon is always fighting for control so nothing would change.
No i don't think so if the demon hunter did figure they were loosing control they would jest kill the warlock
Something might happen but it can only end with a dead warlock :P Seriously though its a pretty stupid thing to try.
I love this kind of video where it's about the class and the lore behind it. I would love to see a video about a monk or priest.
They better let us buy a Fel bat mount like how DKs can buy undead gryphons...
plus one!
i want a demon hunter flight form we have wings damnit let us use them not to glide but to FLY
+Glenn “Beir” this also needs to happen lol
The wings a Demon Hunter has are the equivalent of a chicken's wings. Chickens can jump high and fall slow. They cannot, however, fly in the actual sense of the word.
It would take much bigger and muscular wings than what a DH has in order to maintain flight.
Besides, since Illidan is the archetype for Demon Hunters... well. When does Illidan do more than just hover a bit or propel himself forward a bit using his wings? How would it make sense for Illidan's grunts to be capable of flight when he can't himself, despite him being the most powerful of them all?
+Doom Guy curse your logic, man.. ( think McCoy's voice and attitude, lol)
Well, you could discuss the class powers, what each class can actually do in lore, I'm sure that would help out a lot for role players, such as in Druids: Once you said that druids can't cast thunder storms on caves or that warlocks cannot walk around with demons in citys, I would very like to see that for an series ^^
Great video! I would love to see this as a series about the other classes! ^_^
Thanks, most likely will do it.
You heard it here folks, DoronsMovies himself confirmed that its OK to RP a OP demonhunter, just make sure you don't bite off more then you can chew.
But will the DH be useless after we destroy the Burning Legion? Because after Antorus, there will no longer be a Burning Legion! So what will thei purpose be?
yea its not like that human sent them to their death or anything after they wanted to help them nooo....and orcs no longer have the bloodlust from mannoroth ever since Grom killed him so yea your points are more invalid than modern gender studies......
Well, they'll be just like the Deathknights when the Lich King died...sent on standby lorewise and/or "search their place in this world like everybody else", i guess.
How would they be useless? Basically elite elven warriors empowered by incredibly powerful demonic magic and trained on some of the most dangerous beings in existence.
Doron will you do a video about "How to roleplay as a demon hunter"?
Yeah, planning to do it soon.
Lets not forget how death knights have means to counter magic, including fel magic.
Lore wise?
Why everyone things that fel is magic ? Fel is chaos
Let's not forget how Arthas beat the shit out of illidan
Before he got the helmet :D
Arthas had an legion empowered ner zul by his side a frostmourne and he was already a strong character . Also they were exactly near the frozen throne . Not actually fair to compare their powers by this fight
lets get rooooooooight into the lore
Are you sure about that?
sounds like keemstar
soooo if i meet in pvp a demon hunter ... i should give up?
If DHs are the toughest clan in WoW, then how many wardens were needed to capture and imprison Illidan? Also, if Illidan was already an experienced fighter, you would think that he would have seen the wardens attempt to capture him as a threat - or not - before the actual fight. Thinking along those lines of logic, is it possible - his fighting abilities notwithstanding - that he either misjudged his abilities and/or the warden's abilities which led him to arrogantly charge into the fight without thinking the consequences through to the end? Either way, he was put "on ice" such that he would be here to help fight the Legion when everyone needed him. I wonder what would have happened if Illidan was killed outright - instead of imprisoned - way back then, thus making him and his followers unavailable for the invasion by the Legion into Azeroth? Just a thought.
Gotta disagree here for various reasons:
- Mages as example have, as shamans and warlocks, shown to be able to not only destroy small armies of demons but changing the landscape of planets even destroying entire worlds Aegwynn a mage, defeated Sargeras himself and overall the mages in the lore do very well against the Legion.
- Deathknights of the third generation (the playable sort) have a hell lot of advantages over demonhunters. Being undead they dont know exhaustion, are not staggered by pain, cant be killed unless destroying their brain, they, due to the magic reanimating them, have supheruman strength, speed and agility, they are the only class being able to wear saronite armor which by lore makes them IMMUNE to any sort of magic and highly resilient against physical attacks, not to mention that they are highly trained veterans of war with the ability to wield rune magic which by lore, has the same capabilities as arcane magic and basicly no limits.
And just to mention Arthas beat Illidan so there is the proof ;)
she only defeated the avatar who was ment to lose anyway....
Jody Boles its still way more of a feat than anything illidan ever did
Orkar Isber so? you cant even use her as a example as the guardian has the power of almost all magic types and not just arcane. also she far tougher than any mage by far so that alone isnt a fair comparison.
Jody Boles guardians are mages granted additional power by the mages of the Kirin Tor. its all mage mage mage. And there have been quite some other very accomplished guardians like the first whos staff we are going to wield who fend off almost an entire legion invasion himself. But you could also count in other mages like Khadgar who has more them proven himself to be insanely powerfull or Jaina. Or take Kel Thuzad when he was still allive. Or even in undeath
***** the point is that shamans, mages and warlocks proved to be capable of godlike feats. DKs lorewise can do the very same as them with rune magic + they share all the benefits of undeath. Demonhunters are below all of these guys. sure the average DH is stronger than the average mage, shaman or warlock, but if we take the best DHs, the best DKs, mages, shamans and warlocks, than the DHs loose by FAR
I think that series about powerfulness of WoW classes would be great.
a death knight would hoever beat the living shit out of a demon hunter
A death knight did beat the living shit out of a demon hunter
Unfair comparison. Arthas was close to the Frozen Throne, unfair boost number one. Illidan was weakened from fighting through scores of the Scourge, Arthas had a legendary, sentient blade to aid him, unfair advantage number 2. And with all that, Arthas was still losing until Illidan tried pulling a flashy move, giving Arthas a opening. Arthas got lucky, that is all.
Sky Chaser lol
Reality What are you? 12? Get off the Internet kid.
Sky Chaser i wish i was 12
can you do a " How powerful are Shadow Priests? " plz ? cuz with the new book and void lords and whats the origins of shadow priests i think they get a huge part in lore and how powerful they are and can be , i know you know this but shadow priest's shadow magic is different than what warlocks use , and also note that void lords and void magic are far greater threat than legion and fel magic
Will you make an "How to roleplay" video about Demon Hunters
Yes.
Doronsmovies Amazing! :D
Backstory must contain dead family and loved ones and a desire for vengeance, then you need to stand in Duskwood and tell other RPers how shit they are at fighting demons.
koje ti je pravo ime?
Your wrong, strongest class is a tauren rogue. They are so deadly, Anyone that have ever laid eyes on the majestic sight of atauren rogue is dead.
do one with dks :3
I'd like to see one of these videos for Death Knights or even all the classes if at all possible.
demon hunterez :DD
Gameplay-wise, DH's have been some of the best tanks in the game. I looooove how they work
How you become a demon hunter...Its kinda like if you were to become a Navy Seal in real life.
Execpt you eat a demon heart and rip of your eyes from pain ...
Now with 100% more self-eye gouging and demon heart eating!
"So, taking into consideration, the DHs are one of the, if not the strongest class in the game".
*Brings in his ilvl 702 ret pally to fix that mistake*
***** It's a newly boosted pally, he's in full invasion gear, I need atleast 1 break in WOW right?
Death knights are stronger than demon hunters for various reasons:
-They were champions already before they died and were resurrected, so they are already strong fighters by default.
-They use Rune magic, one of the strongest forms of magic known in the Warcraft universe.
-They have vampiric attacks, so they can quickly heal during battle by actually feeding of other people's blood (in contrast to demon hunters who can only feed on Demonic energies).
-They can raise and empower the undead to fight alongside them.
-They can spread acid and viral infections to slowly kill their enemies.
-They have Runeforging, so a DK's weapon is always stronger than a normal one.
-They can jump into the Shadowlands, the realm of the dead.
-They can literally grab your soul and pull you to them (Death Grip).
When we compare these to the powers of a Demon Hunter, we find that a DH's mobility is countered by the fact that a Death Knight has a lot of ways to engage in melee with him, even if the DH runs away from him. The Death knight can soak a lot of damage by simply striking back at the Demon Hunter, because they can drain his blood in order to sustain themselves or use their own Undead minions as meat shields. Even if the Demon Hunter transforms into his Demonic form, the Death Knight has many ways of resisting damage and incapacitating him.
cool story.. I can say the same, DH has many ways to resist DK DMG and murder them with fell empowered skills....
***** I'll speak you in a level of intelligence even you could understand: Arthas > Illidan.
Indoril Nerevar Moon-and-Star That just goes to show your intelligence. First of do research, Nobble covered the wow book i forgot its name, there it is clearly stated that Illidan was beating Arthas ass but he was too cocky and Arthas together with nerzuls power got in a lucky strike. Now do a best of 3 there and Arthas would be dead.
***** You're obviously butthurt that death knights are better. Might aswell talk to a wall.
***** mad bro
Great video man, i like your way of explaining and editing :) keep em coming
Arthas beat illidan = Death knights> demon hunters
Uhm, thats because they where on taited ground.. it was on Northrend wich means Arthas get the 'lich kings'' power from to become even stronger thats why he won that time..
carl stenmark excusess
Not excuses, facts. Illidan was cocky, Arthas had a sentient blade to help him and tainted ground aiding him and Illidan EVEN THEN was fighting toe-to-toe with Arthas until he tried pulling a flashy move because of his cocky attitude. 7 times out of 10 a DH will win.
Sky Chaser nope
Sky Chaser i knew i would trigger you
Where has this channel been all my life. Instantly subbed :D Hope you get all the recognition you deserve
in lore the greatest demon hunter illidan faught arthas twice, 1st was a draw and 2nd he lost despite having kael thas helping him.
in wciii game demonhunter always lost 1v1 vs a orc blademaster.
in legion lvl 100 dh are no way near as op as lvl100 dks with the same gear values.
I'd say the death knights are the strongest class in WoW.
The first was a draw because Illidan only recently got out of a 10k year old prison sentence. Plus he didn't absorb the power of the skull of Gul'dan.
If you are 10k old and still cant beat a human in single combat you are pretty shit
You'd also be pretty shit if you were 100 years old, but spent 95 of those years literally inside a prison without the ability to do anything but pace 9 steps back and forth.
DiasTAPvP 2 steps back and forth* he used most of the time using his power given by Sargeras to enter in and out of the Nether without even dying.
by the way i don't know if he is but imagine how powerful demon hunters will be if we get a chance to fight and beat Sargeras and absorb his power
Naaah Fam, a paladin would beat the shit out of that demon hunter
Light > all
+thunder wolf now thats something i 100% Agree on
Like how Guldan squeezed the greatest Paladin Fordring like a little lemon. Fel >all onlyway to defeat fel =Fel = Demon hunters and Locks.
Blah, tirion didn't die from gul'dan, he just bubble hearthed. And ya know what they saw, Bubble saves all.
The Old Gods would have something to say about that.... soon.....
Demon Hunters versus Witchers, that would be a match to see.
You should do a top 10 strongest classes lore wise or something like that
Well there are only 12 classes available so that probably wouldn't work although I could probably do something with all the other lore classes that are not playable.
Well Doron, who do you think would win in a fight?
A seasoned Human Paladin and an Orc Shaman vs. a Night Elf Demon Hunter and a Death Knight?
Ret pala or dk
No no. The Paladin and the Shaman are on the same team. So if ones going to fight, then both will fight.
This video was really awesome and well put together.Good Job! :)
Thank you. :)
Since the Illidan novel is out and anypne who pre-purchased Legion has access to the Demon Hunters. Is there a chance you might do an RP Guide on them anytime soon?
I have never played WOW but i am so interested in this universe (and history of this universe) now because of Hearthstone XD.
Demon Hunters are Equal to Death Knights, in my opinion. They are also arguably as powerful as baseline wardens. DKs and DHs are hero classes for a reason. Wardens are also just really strong, especially now that it's confirmed they kind of use arcane.
I think the two strongest classes lorewise are Demon Hunters and Death Knights and the second strongest class is the warlock
Major fan of this vid. Thanks for posting!
You are probably one of the best you tubers that I've seen. You put more effort into your videos which into deserves you more subs. Keep it up
Thank you very much, I appreciate it.
Nice video!
Could you make another one, comparing the other classes? Discard the weaklings and analyze a strong, like, mage, against a strong (something).
Thanks. Might do a series on this and could include a segment comparing to other classes.
Main demon hunter since Legion (I play all classes also though) and I have to say I just enjoy it, may not be the best or the strongest but it is my favorite class to play and very versatile, sometimes it's top tier sometimes not I don't care I just love the class and everyone else should take this in mind: Play the classes you love instead of taking the easiest or more powerful steps, just enjoy
Did death knights get some of their power from the lich king? And now that they are semi allied with the lich king again are they as powerful as they once were if not stronger from countless battles
I dont think that LK affect them nearly as much as they are affecting themself.
I mean... runeblade grows stronger with each kill just like demon hunter with each demon killed. I think thats why they are heroic classes... because they have unlimited power potential. And stronger is the one who killed more :)
You are the new Thewarcraftbible for me
i agree with your points.They are fast as a saber and strong as an Ogre! thats alone is pretty dangerous and now add limitless fel possibilitys
lorewise: does my character still have the sargerite Keystone to invade the legion homeworld? What do you think?
This series is amazing. Please keep this up.
I wonder which one has greater powers - DH or DK. Both are very strong lorewise. Maybe a video comparision?
Thinking about the whole DK vs DH situation isn't the death knight going to lose eventually since the demon hunter would always just come back since they are fully immortal?
DH can not revive himself from Twisting Nether without a body to possess like demons. And they also have to pass the borders of Nether into realm of living which also takes effort and to someone is not possible alone.
I wonder if one demon hunter can defeat strong demons, such as Pit Lord and Fel Reaver
I think it could be possible but it would depend on how experienced the demon hunter is and how strong a pit lord for example would be. If I can recall correctly Illidan did best Magtheridon in the book almost by himself and Magtheridon is a very powerful pit lord.
even if some DH are tied to the twisting nether, wouldn't killing them separate them from their inner demon? wouldn't it free the demon?
The first ever demon hunter was Illidan who got his ass whooped by Arthas himself a million times.
Headshot Hunter 1. By the lich king which help him beat illidan.
2. Was trap in his cell for along time so he could have been rusty.
3. He never beat illidan million times your just bias.
Do you think that you would do a demon hunter RP guide like the others? I think that would be a cool video plus it would complete your RP guide videos cause that's pretty much the only one you haven't done
Blizzard wont hesitate to change the lore and add tauren and dwarf Demon hunter if people enough demand for it.
Are you considering doing these "How Powerful Are" videos with other classes?
Yes most likely will do it as a series, people seemed to like this video.
+Doronsmovies Awesome!
Slightly disappointed that there was no comparison between the strength of a Demon Hunter and a Death Knight. DK seem like the most obvious thing to measure a Demon Hunter against, because they're the only other 'hero class'. They come from the same background of being an elite army with both extreme physical strength and supernatural abilities.
Could it be possibly for someone to be a deathknight, demon hunter, and warlock at the same time? or at least be a deathknight but have qualities and abilities that are like ones that demon hunters and warlocks use?
I'm really interested in the strength of the windwalkers... I'm new to the channel so you may have done a video on them already; but if you haven't I would definitely like to here about them!
Arthas would disagree on the last statement.
These videos are pretty cool. I play a demon hunter as my Horde main. Hey, just out of curosity, are you going to do a similar videos on druids? They're my favorite class, my ne druid being my main overall.
Even I don't like pvp , I won all duels against DH with my furry warr, using piercing howl, fear and shockwave
I can't wait to go raiding in Legion so I can get [Golem's Epic Sphincter Ring]! Guess which equipment slot it goes in? If you guessed [In Your Butt Slot] you guesses right! Now go earn your [Epic Butt Buff] by clicking on your WoD Garrison Outhouse! -Exyle the Exalted
I always thought Illidan used warglaives because they would pretty effective weapons for a BLIND person. All you would have to do is spin around or make wide cuts to do some damage, and since I used to think Illidan couldn't see at all, I just dismissed the weapon's unwieldiness.
Well actually I'd say a sword or even an axe would be a lot more effective if you are just gonna spin around (cough bladestorm cough). I believe their advantage comes from having two blades in one, giving you more options and therefore making you harder to predict and the fact that you can't parry 4 swords coming at your face making a skilled wielder pretty much unmatched in swordplay. Maybe I'm completely off though as I (surprisingly) dont know much about murdering people with swords.
considering warlocks can subdue weaker demons, and the demon hunters can only absord the essence of lesser demons, could they easily bind a demon hunter or banish them in some capacity?
First time to say it but I really like that red frame.
4:40 it appears to be a demonhunter dashing and killing wardens, what is this scene from?
Dream on Hunter after they leave argus and return to citadel.
what about a comparison between Demon hunters and Death Knights lore wise
I think that Death Knights are probably the strongest class, plate armor, many magic counters like anti magic shell, and death grip and are imbued with great power when resshrected
Death Knights are constantly, slowly decaying. They're also mentally ill and can't actually feel anything that's being done to them. Demon Hunters have a: height, magic, agility and weight advantage over them.
Arthas fucked illidan up
+Reality He got a lucky shot and frostmournd did the rest. Read the book Illidan was beating arthases ass but got cocky and opens himself to an attack. if you look at the class abilities lore wise then illidan would have won aka dream on hunter stronger than dk.
Death Knights are using blood magic to keep their bodies in check and free from decay and rotting. You even have a book in game about it. They are like vampires, age doesn't mean nothing to them nor their body can fade. They are not mentally ill they are undead. Every emotion is shut down to undead which means they feel no pain, love, happiness, remorse or fear. They utilize power of Unholy, Frost and Blood. A true masterful DK has far more ways to beat Demon Hunter as only one disease can weaken DH but DH can not restore his/her body with Blood magic in mid combat how DK can. They don't need to pound DH to death, they can soak all of damage. DH's are still living beings and they, despite highly enchanted, feel pain and can be slowed by serious injury. While DK can fight with 100% capability without one hand or while being stabbed in chest few times.
Zeljko Nikolic No fear or pain leads to carelessness. Pain reminds reminds you to be smart and sharp. And You forget DH devour magick thus no restoration for the DK.
You say one disease can weaken them, well so can a eye beam of pure feel energy so what? You have to hit inflict it or it doesn't mean shit.
And the meaning 100% is lost on you, Let's say DH removes an arm of a DK, he can now stay in that blind side of the DK because he has no way of grabbing him or attacking him.
All and all this is a silly comparison and probably we should ask Nobble who would win because hes a real lore junkie.
I have this question, who is Illidan's inner demon or he is a special demon hunter?
Unlike other Demon Hunter's. Illidan consumed the skull of Gul'Dan to gain his demonic powers
This was a great video, but I'd like to think that Death Knights are still the most overpowered class in lore.
I wonder how do they do against a pala or a death knight, wich are known to be powerful against leather wearing classes?
yes please make more class lore
As a Warlock, I'd just caste "enslave demon", and then sacrifice the demon hunter to take his/her power as my own. #realmastersoffel
ik it would be complicated but what if a draenei could be a demon hunter. or ifr you could play an eredar that would be awesome.
The question I come up with is them versus Death Knights...
in wc3 it said that they cut out the eyes so the demonic power can't escape.
I would very much enjoy a video on monks! Also youre races of azeroth videos were great. Can we get one on Gargoyles?
The only thing id like to add is, that your last statement about them being the strongest could be false, there are also Death Knights, the commanders for the scourge army, wielding necromantic magics like Demon hunters wield the Fel. :P
Remember Arthas and Illidan fights? They were pretty equal, even when Illidan had consumed the skull of Gul'dan. :P
thing is if you read the books aka the lore on what this is based on. Illidan was toying with arthas and lost because he was cocky and underestimated the frostmourn.
Actually if you listened he never said they are the strongest he just said it was a possibility.
And the Arthas Illidan duels are pretty bad as an argument for dk's being stronger. The first duel was evenly matched even though Illidan had almost no experience as a dh and had just been released from 10 000 years in an empty prison. The second duel Illidan had the upper hand due to consuming the skull of gul'dan but he got cocky and underestimated the power of frostmourne and Ner'Zhul (The fight took place right beside the frozen throne so Ner'Zhul could channel most of his power to Arthas.) which led to his defeat.
They don’t have any healing moves right now i just wanted to add that.
lore wise not game wise...
its hard to pin classes against each other but i personally think mages would be and lore has have been proven to be the most powerful classes in game med and aidwen khadgar ect.. but in terms of demons hunters i feel like classes that have frost like powers that can in a real lore scenario could beat a DH as frost abilitys are a strong way to shut down moments so frost mages frost Dks and shamans who can use water elements demon hunters i would strongly believe could beat down a shadow priest in warcraft lore
How many Demon Hunter's were killed in Outland by Champions of Horde and Alliance ?
Btw great video, with all information :) they are in the strongest classes, but I'm not sure they are the strongest ones compared to the others.
I just realised that I am in the same Orc rp guild as you, Doron. That is if you're still with the Orcs of the Red Blade?
Ah man, I miss OotRB back on DB. I'm on AD now, don't get to RP with them nearly as much!
Yeah, I just joined the guild, what, two weeks ago? I had guidance from a friend who had played with them on Defias for years, though.
what happens after maiev released illidan from the prison ?
will people stop saying Arthas beat Illidan so its DK > DH???? Arthas was almost killed by Kael alone. Illidan lost because of the plot. he could have defeated Arthas easilly.
Please make how powerful are death knights
