		<description><![CDATA[Mage purple bolts are better than Warlock purple bolts!

Yeah, that&#039;s right, I went there. Even if it&#039;s not true.

The thing about locks, though, is that if they are running low on mana, health tap a bit and POOF! You&#039;ve been healed because they thought you were taking damage (you sneaky thieves!) whereas mages go &quot;2, 4, 6, 8! Watch me while I evo--OW!&quot; 

Damn those AoE&#039;s that interrupt our biggest mana regainer. Oh well, we&#039;re OOM, no deeps 4 u!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t like warlocks. They&#039;re icky.  All that blood and meaness. If I&#039;m gonna kill them, at least make it natural with FIRE.

Or the holy light. Even tho we priests dabble in shadow sometimes. It&#039;s a different kind of shadow. The, &quot;Make you go insane&quot; kind. With the flaying of the mind and the whole vampire thing.

That sounds kind of evil i guess.

But we don&#039;t do blood stuff.

Nope! Thats icky]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think the difference between mages and warlocks is best summed up by example.

Mages are Gandalf, naturally.

Warlocks are Emperor Palpatine.

Gandalf fueled his &#039;zone&#039; with righteous FURY to take down the Balrog.

Palpatine fueled his &#039;zone&#039; with pure HATRED as he pwned Luke&#039;s smug azz. (and would have pwn more if his pet hadn&#039;t gotten out of control and thrown him into that conveniently placed chasm.).

The graphics are kinda misleading, too. One thing locks have asked for for a long time is to have their fire spells properly reflect the fel source by burning GREEN instead of that cheery elemental YELLOW that mages use.  So it&#039;s understandable that mages would confuse the two. But, totally different sources. Arcane/elemental versus fel/demonic.

That still leaves shadow priests unclassified. My theory is that the SP &#039;zone&#039; is fueled by sheer ennui; &quot;I&#039;m not really evil, all this pain I&#039;m inflicting is actually HEALING the party, y&#039;all!&quot;

Hm, mebbee not.

But maybe as an example we can use Merlin from &quot;Excalibur&quot;.  &quot;Anaal nathrach, orth&#039; bhais&#039;s bethad, do che&#039;l de&#039;nmha!&quot;  Hmm.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And let us not forget, we can dot to our hearts content!

We need to be running around constantly?  No problem!  Throw dot&#039;s up run as necessary and STILL continue to do decent DPS.

Oh!  And our faithful dreadsteed!  Because when we travel by land, we still travel in style!]]></description>
