− | '''Base mana''' refers to how much [[mana]] a character has before it is modified by [[talents]], [[Attributes#Intellect|intellect]], [[enchants]], and other [[item]] effects. As of [[patch 3.0.2]], all spell costs are a percentage of base mana. (Prior to that, most spells cost a fixed amount of mana, rather than a percentage of base mana, with a few exceptions.) |

||
+ | The '''forces of the Old Gods''' are a vaguely united "faction" of all the entities and organizations that serve the [[Old Gods]]. This page is an attempt to list them. In recent times its members either serve the Old Gods directly, or just ally with [[Deathwing]], to achieve their own objectives with the support of the Old Gods. |
||
− | The value is dependent on class only, not on race. |
||
+ | Although they suffered a crushing [[Old Gods#Ordering of Azeroth|defeat]] long ago, and the Old Gods along with most of their minions had been imprisoned, the [[Old Gods]]' activities on Azeroth have been steadily increasing, culminating in the [[Cataclysm]], when they launched a [[Elemental War|major offensive]] in a attempt to expand their influence and eventually reshape Azeroth to their wishes. As the Old Gods are behind most of the plots in Warcraft one way or another, this list of forces under their "control" is expansive. |

||
+ | ** A cult that blindly serves the Old Gods with promises of power and ascension. |
||
− | As stated above, the base mana pool is only dependent on character class. Each race will have the exact same base mana. The calculation is quite simple. |
||
+ | ** Led by the mutant {{NPC||Cho'gall}}, first of the [[ogre magi]].<ref>[[World of Warcraft: The Comic]]</ref> |
||
+ | ** The [[Twilight Council]] are another of the leaders of the cult, which only known member is {{NPC||High Priestess Azil}}.<ref>[[Quest:Followers and Leaders]]</ref> |
||
+ | ** Before Cho'gall or the Twilight Council the cult acted on the orders of the [[Abyssal Council]] a powerful group of elemental nobles.<ref>[[Quest:Lords of the Council]]</ref> |
||
+ | ** The cult has various members the most notable are: |
||
+ | *** {{Alliance}}{{Horde}} [[Mortal]] betrayers from [[Alliance]] and [[Horde]]. |
||
+ | *** {{Race|Ogre mage|notext}}{{Race|Ogre|}} Various [[ogre]]s are attracted by the promises of power of Cho'gall. |
||
+ | **** {{RaceIconExt|DiscipleofCho'gall}} Cho'gall has made some disciples in his former likeness.<ref>[[Quest:Gor'kresh]]</ref> |
||
+ | **** The Ogres of the [[Mo'grosh]] [[clan]].<ref>[[Quest:Servants of Cho'gall]]</ref> |
||
+ | ***** Led by {{NPC||Gor'kresh}}. |
||
+ | **** The Ogres of the [[Bloodeye]] [[clan]].<ref>[[Quest:Ogres & Ettins]]</ref> |
||
+ | *** {{RaceIconExt|Gronn}} A number of [[Gronn]] joined the cult, notably {{NPC||Skullcrusher the Mountain}}.<ref>[[Quest:Skullcrusher the Mountain]]</ref> |

||

||
− | Base Mana = MaxMana - ManaFromIntellect |
||
− | = MaxMana - ( min(20, Int) + 15*(Int - min(20, Int) ) |
||
− | = MaxMana - (20 + (15*(Int – 20)) //for Intellect 20 or over |
||
− | = MaxMana - (Int) //for Intellect under 20 |
||
− | Mana From Intellect can be seen by hovering your mouse over the Intellect stat on your character screen. The part that says "Increase Mana by XXXX" is how much Intellect is boosting your max mana. |
||
− | Note: Some talents and items boost max mana. e.g.: |
||
− | * [[Fel Vitality]] (Increases mana by 1%/2%/3%) |
||
− | * [[Beaming Earthsiege Diamond]] (+2% mana) |
||
− | Remove the effect of this talent before doing the computation. For example, if a character has 11000 mana and has a +10% mana effect, then divide 11000 by 1.1 first, to get 10000, then subtract the amount of mana it says is granted by Intellect. |
||
− | Example : Kalium, Level 70 Human Warlock. Total Mana: 8695. Intellect Increases Mana by 5824. |
||
− | |||
− | Base Mana = 8695 - ( Talents = 0 ) = 8695 |
||
− | = 8695 - 5824 |
||
− | = 2871 Base Mana Pool |
||
+ | * '''Black Dragonflight and the Servants of Deathwing''' |
||
− | As a sanity check, it can be noted that most spells (as of Patch 3.0.2) cost a percentage of base mana. This can make it very easy to verify that the numbers are correct. |

||
+ | |||
+ | == Organization and former members == |
||
+ | Before the coming of the titans, the old gods had control over the elementals and they acted on the battlefield, the same cannot be said in current times when the old gods are still weakened by the titans' attack and imprisonment eons ago, they whisper and corrupt powerful individuals so their armies can help them complete the [[Hour of Twilight]], the mysterious objective of their forces. |
||
+ | |||
+ | The Faceless ones and the forgotten ones directly serve the old gods and the old gods fancy Hydra demigods, like Akumai and Garhzilla has pets. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Ahn'Qiraj=== |
||
+ | Ahn'Qiraj is a fortress city in southern silithus, and it's the home of the qiraji a race descended from the aqir, that were shaped by C'thun, from the silithid. They first threatened the world with the War of the Shifting Sands, where they were sealed inside their own fortress city.<ref>[[Prophecy of C'Thun]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | They tried a new offensive but utterly failed against the [[Might of Kalimdor]], ending with the death of the Twin Emperors, rulers of the qiraji, and with them their master C'thun.<ref>[[Quest:C'Thun's Legacy]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | Cho'gall and the Twilight Hammer took over Ahn'Qiraj while he mutated, and tried using C'thun's corpse to corrupt the [[Med'an]] the soon-to-be Guardian.<ref>[[Hard Choices]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Ulduar's Corruption and the Iron Army=== |
||
+ | Ulduar is where the old god Yogg-Saron was sealed, but it wasn't strong enough to stop his influence from spreading over the milleniums, corrupting the Prime-designate Loken<ref>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/dungeons/wrath-ulduar.xml</ref>, the other [[Titanic watcher]]s (Frejya, Hodir, Mimiron and Thorim)<ref>Quest:The Reckoning (Storm Peaks)</ref><ref>[[Quest:Fate of the Titans]]</ref>, and other titanic constructs, like giants<ref>[[Quest:Mending Fences]]</ref><ref>[[Quest:Diametrically Opposed]]</ref><ref name="bosstiary"> and mechagnomes and their creations<ref>[[Quest:Slaves of the Stormforged]]</ref>. |
||
+ | |||
+ | With control over the Forge of Wills, the corrupted Loken started creating a new army like many other's of the titan's creation's (earthen, giants and vrykul) but made of iron instead of stone and empowered by runes.<ref>http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=25626575587&sid=1</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | However the Explorers League together with the Kirin Tor and the Horde mounted an offensive against Yogg-Saron's forces and managed to kill him and save the corrupted watchers, except for Loken which was killed earlier by heroes in the [[Halls of Lightning]], and with the death of the Prime designate, Algalon the observer came to Azeroth to judge its corruption in order to re-originate it. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Deathwing servants=== |
||
+ | Neltharion the Earthwarder was corrupted during the War of the Ancients into the service of the Old Gods, and with him his dragonflight, and renamed himself Deathwing. <ref name="MG">''[[Monster Guide]]'', 39, 41</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | However he suffered wounds too great in the events of the [[Day of the Dragon]] and had to retreat into Deepholm to heal himself<ref>[[Wow:Cataclysm Trailer]]</ref>, beating the stone dragons into submission to serve him<ref>[[Quest:Don't. Stop. Moving.]]</ref>, in his absence Sintharia his mate, and his two sons Onyxia and Nefarian took over his dragonflight. |
||
+ | |||
+ | Onyxia tried to control Stormwind much like his father tried to control Lordaeron, but was eventually found and killed by Varian in her lair. <ref>[[Wow:comic]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | Nefarian tried to create a new army, he recruited the many races of the Dark Horde, and stole the eggs of the other dragonflights and created the short lived Chromatic Dragonflight, among other experiments, he was killed by heroes.<ref>[[Blackrock Spire]]</ref><ref>[[Blackwing Lair]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | Sintharia travelled to Outland to recruit the Fel Horde<ref>Meeting with Overlord Mor'ghor</ref>, and experimented with egg of the Nether dragonflight to create the most powerful dragons in Azeroth: the Twilight dragons, however she was killed by her own creation Dargonax.<ref>Night of the Dragon</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | With the Cataclysm, Deathwing and his flight returned and resurrected Sinestra and Nefarian as undead, the latter which resurrected his sister onyxia, reinforced by Sinestra creation the Twilight Dragonflight, they allied with the elemental lords, Ragnaros of the Firelands, and Al'akir of the Skywall, and together with the Twilight Hammer they work to bring the [[Hour of Twilight]].<ref>[[Encounter Journal]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Emerald Nightmare=== |
||
+ | The emerald nightmare is a infection of corruption in the emerald dream, a realm designed as the titans plans for Azeroth, sparked by the Old God N'Zoth<ref>http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/2035-Blizzcon-2010-WoW-Quests-and-Lore-Panel</ref>. It turns the native fey creatures into "Corrupted Ones" and makes sleeping people into "Unwaking". This also turned some of Ysera's noble brood into shadows of their former selves, and even inspiring reverence and granting power to some of the more twisted druids. <ref>{{ref book |author=Arthaus |title=[[Shadows & Light]] |isbn=9781588469731 |pages=147}}</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | It's led by the Nightmare Lord Xavius, the first satyr, but was beaten back to the Rift of Aln by Malfurion. however the Nightmare still influences Azeroth, as shown by the regrowth in Southern Barrens during the ''Cataclysm''.<ref>[[World of Warcraft: Stormrage]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Twilight Hammer=== |
||
+ | The Twilight Hammer is a former orc and ogre clan that has turned into a destructive cult that accepts anyone, including the almost extinct sand trolls and the rebellious dark iron dwarves, led by Cho'gall and the Twilight Council, they control most of the twilight highlands they do their best to help Deathwing wreak the [[Cataclysm]], and complete the Hour of Twilight. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Empire of Nazjatar=== |
||
+ | In the end of the war of the ancients, after the shattering happened, queen azshara and the highborne tried their best to keep the waters at bay, but struck a pact with a mysterious power that turned them into the reptile Naga.<ref>[http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/encyclopedia/487.xml Birth of the Naga, Characteristics and Abilities]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | Now as underwater inhabitants in a sunken city they worked their way into shaping a underwater empire, enslaving many aquatic races like murlocs, and taming many beasts like tube wyrms, coualt, dragon turles and snap dragons, with Azshara leading them and against beings like [[Leviroth]] and the [[Kvaldir]]<ref>[[Quest:The Emissary]]</ref>. |
||
+ | |||
+ | In recent times they have begun invading land, controlling the echo isles<ref>[[Zar'jira]]</ref>, and some supported [[Illidan]] in the outlands before his death in the hands of Akama and Maiev<ref>[[Lady Vashj]]</ref>. |
||
+ | |||
+ | In the Cataclysm they have begun a campaign in Vash'jir against the elemental lord of water, Neptulon and his servants in a attempt to obtain his trident that controls the seas, and his realm the Abyssal maws<ref>[[Quest:A Revenant's Vengeance]]</ref>. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Elemental Planes=== |
||
+ | In ages past, the Old Gods controlled the elementals through their lieutenants, the elemental lords. However, the lieutenants were defeated by the Titans, and then imprisoned within the Elemental Planes. |
||
+ | |||
+ | Nowadays, the Old Gods have little control over the elementals. Only Al'akir and Ragnaros allied with Deathwing, the Old Gods' tool, while Therazane and Neptulon directly oppose them. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Skywall and Al'akir ==== |
||
+ | Free from the imprisonment of the Skywall, Al'akir and his air elementals quickly joined forces with Deathwing in a attempt to obtain the re-origination device the titans left in Uldum. To fight the Tol'vir, his ancient enemies, he called the support of the Conclave of the Winds and Skywall's many denizens.<ref>http://us.battle.net/wow/en/zone/throne-of-the-four-winds/</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Firelands and Ragnaros ==== |
||
+ | Ragnaros allied with Deathwing when he was promised to burn Azeroth together with his minions, without Therazane or Neptulon interference, he decided to start with the world tree of Nordrassil with the support of the Twilight Hammer<ref>[[Encounter journal]]</ref>, prompting the druids of the [[Cenarion Circle]] and the [[Ancient Guardian]]s to oppose him, he was beaten back to the Firelands by [[Cenarius]], [[Hamuul]] and [[Malfurion]], and after some days of preparations, the druids are prepared to bring the fight to Firelands and kill Ragnaros forever. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Deepholm and Therazane ==== |
||
+ | Therazane however has not liked the old gods plans for Deepholm her prison, after Deathwing broke the world pillar causing the deepholm to be infested by fungus, and a invasion by the twilight hammer, she and her kin made a temporary alliance with the earthen ring to solve those problems, the old gods indirectly caused. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ====Abyssal Maw and Neptulon ==== |
||
+ | Neptulon was attacked by the naga backed by the old god's faceless ones, in a attempt to conquer his realm, and after a confrontation with [[Lady Nazjar]] and [[Ozumat]] he was beaten back to the Abyssal Maw, the heroes attempted to rescue him, but ultimately failed as Neptulon was quickly taken away by Ozumat. |
||
+ | |||
+ | ===Beyond Azeroth=== |
||
+ | More old gods exist beyond the five of azeroth, but most information comes from the [[Outlands]]. |
||
+ | |||
+ | The [[Sethekk]] and the [[Dark Conclave]] [[Arakkoa]] serve a mysterious master, and the latter group, magically augmented by [[Gul'dan]]'s curse, attempt to summon their master, which they call it a ancient and powerful evil. He looks similar to C'thun, another old god, and when the hidden mob name is revealed, he's called a [[Summoned Old God]].<ref>[[Ask CDev]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | The [[Black Blood of Draenor]] are oozes and the oozes of azeroth have been various times associated with the old gods, and it's very similar in name to [[Black Blood of Yogg-Saron]], a ore made from the blood of the Old god Yogg-Saron.<ref>[[Quest:... and a Batch of Ooze]]</ref> |
||
+ | |||
+ | [[Harbinger Skyriss]] is a servant of the old gods, a qiraji prophet much like [[Prophet Skeram]] of Ahn'qiraj, is imprisioned in the [[Arcatraz]] of [[Tempest Keep]]. According to [[A'dal]], he seeks to usher his masters' vision of conquering all of the worlds in the universe. <ref>[[Quest:Harbinger of Doom]]</ref> |

The forces of the Old Gods are a vaguely united "faction" of all the entities and organizations that serve the Old Gods. This page is an attempt to list them. In recent times its members either serve the Old Gods directly, or just ally with Deathwing, to achieve their own objectives with the support of the Old Gods.
Although they suffered a crushing defeat long ago, and the Old Gods along with most of their minions had been imprisoned, the Old Gods' activities on Azeroth have been steadily increasing, culminating in the Cataclysm, when they launched a major offensive in a attempt to expand their influence and eventually reshape Azeroth to their wishes. As the Old Gods are behind most of the plots in Warcraft one way or another, this list of forces under their "control" is expansive.

Organization and former members
Before the coming of the titans, the old gods had control over the elementals and they acted on the battlefield, the same cannot be said in current times when the old gods are still weakened by the titans' attack and imprisonment eons ago, they whisper and corrupt powerful individuals so their armies can help them complete the Hour of Twilight, the mysterious objective of their forces.
The Faceless ones and the forgotten ones directly serve the old gods and the old gods fancy Hydra demigods, like Akumai and Garhzilla has pets.
Ahn'Qiraj
Ahn'Qiraj is a fortress city in southern silithus, and it's the home of the qiraji a race descended from the aqir, that were shaped by C'thun, from the silithid. They first threatened the world with the War of the Shifting Sands, where they were sealed inside their own fortress city.[69]
They tried a new offensive but utterly failed against the Might of Kalimdor, ending with the death of the Twin Emperors, rulers of the qiraji, and with them their master C'thun.[70]
Cho'gall and the Twilight Hammer took over Ahn'Qiraj while he mutated, and tried using C'thun's corpse to corrupt the Med'an the soon-to-be Guardian.[71]
Ulduar's Corruption and the Iron Army
Ulduar is where the old god Yogg-Saron was sealed, but it wasn't strong enough to stop his influence from spreading over the milleniums, corrupting the Prime-designate Loken[72], the other Titanic watchers (Frejya, Hodir, Mimiron and Thorim)[73][74], and other titanic constructs, like giants[75][76]Cite error: Closing </ref>
missing for <ref>
tag.
With control over the Forge of Wills, the corrupted Loken started creating a new army like many other's of the titan's creation's (earthen, giants and vrykul) but made of iron instead of stone and empowered by runes.[77]
However the Explorers League together with the Kirin Tor and the Horde mounted an offensive against Yogg-Saron's forces and managed to kill him and save the corrupted watchers, except for Loken which was killed earlier by heroes in the Halls of Lightning, and with the death of the Prime designate, Algalon the observer came to Azeroth to judge its corruption in order to re-originate it.
Deathwing servants
Neltharion the Earthwarder was corrupted during the War of the Ancients into the service of the Old Gods, and with him his dragonflight, and renamed himself Deathwing. [13]
However he suffered wounds too great in the events of the Day of the Dragon and had to retreat into Deepholm to heal himself[78], beating the stone dragons into submission to serve him[79], in his absence Sintharia his mate, and his two sons Onyxia and Nefarian took over his dragonflight.
Onyxia tried to control Stormwind much like his father tried to control Lordaeron, but was eventually found and killed by Varian in her lair. [80]
Nefarian tried to create a new army, he recruited the many races of the Dark Horde, and stole the eggs of the other dragonflights and created the short lived Chromatic Dragonflight, among other experiments, he was killed by heroes.[81][82]
Sintharia travelled to Outland to recruit the Fel Horde[83], and experimented with egg of the Nether dragonflight to create the most powerful dragons in Azeroth: the Twilight dragons, however she was killed by her own creation Dargonax.[84]
With the Cataclysm, Deathwing and his flight returned and resurrected Sinestra and Nefarian as undead, the latter which resurrected his sister onyxia, reinforced by Sinestra creation the Twilight Dragonflight, they allied with the elemental lords, Ragnaros of the Firelands, and Al'akir of the Skywall, and together with the Twilight Hammer they work to bring the Hour of Twilight.[85]
Emerald Nightmare
The emerald nightmare is a infection of corruption in the emerald dream, a realm designed as the titans plans for Azeroth, sparked by the Old God N'Zoth[86]. It turns the native fey creatures into "Corrupted Ones" and makes sleeping people into "Unwaking". This also turned some of Ysera's noble brood into shadows of their former selves, and even inspiring reverence and granting power to some of the more twisted druids. [87]
It's led by the Nightmare Lord Xavius, the first satyr, but was beaten back to the Rift of Aln by Malfurion. however the Nightmare still influences Azeroth, as shown by the regrowth in Southern Barrens during the Cataclysm.[88]
Twilight Hammer
The Twilight Hammer is a former orc and ogre clan that has turned into a destructive cult that accepts anyone, including the almost extinct sand trolls and the rebellious dark iron dwarves, led by Cho'gall and the Twilight Council, they control most of the twilight highlands they do their best to help Deathwing wreak the Cataclysm, and complete the Hour of Twilight.
Empire of Nazjatar
In the end of the war of the ancients, after the shattering happened, queen azshara and the highborne tried their best to keep the waters at bay, but struck a pact with a mysterious power that turned them into the reptile Naga.[89]
Now as underwater inhabitants in a sunken city they worked their way into shaping a underwater empire, enslaving many aquatic races like murlocs, and taming many beasts like tube wyrms, coualt, dragon turles and snap dragons, with Azshara leading them and against beings like Leviroth and the Kvaldir[90].
In recent times they have begun invading land, controlling the echo isles[91], and some supported Illidan in the outlands before his death in the hands of Akama and Maiev[92].
In the Cataclysm they have begun a campaign in Vash'jir against the elemental lord of water, Neptulon and his servants in a attempt to obtain his trident that controls the seas, and his realm the Abyssal maws[93].
Elemental Planes
In ages past, the Old Gods controlled the elementals through their lieutenants, the elemental lords. However, the lieutenants were defeated by the Titans, and then imprisoned within the Elemental Planes.
Nowadays, the Old Gods have little control over the elementals. Only Al'akir and Ragnaros allied with Deathwing, the Old Gods' tool, while Therazane and Neptulon directly oppose them.
Skywall and Al'akir
Free from the imprisonment of the Skywall, Al'akir and his air elementals quickly joined forces with Deathwing in a attempt to obtain the re-origination device the titans left in Uldum. To fight the Tol'vir, his ancient enemies, he called the support of the Conclave of the Winds and Skywall's many denizens.[94]
Firelands and Ragnaros
Ragnaros allied with Deathwing when he was promised to burn Azeroth together with his minions, without Therazane or Neptulon interference, he decided to start with the world tree of Nordrassil with the support of the Twilight Hammer[95], prompting the druids of the Cenarion Circle and the Ancient Guardians to oppose him, he was beaten back to the Firelands by Cenarius, Hamuul and Malfurion, and after some days of preparations, the druids are prepared to bring the fight to Firelands and kill Ragnaros forever.
Deepholm and Therazane
Therazane however has not liked the old gods plans for Deepholm her prison, after Deathwing broke the world pillar causing the deepholm to be infested by fungus, and a invasion by the twilight hammer, she and her kin made a temporary alliance with the earthen ring to solve those problems, the old gods indirectly caused.
Abyssal Maw and Neptulon
Neptulon was attacked by the naga backed by the old god's faceless ones, in a attempt to conquer his realm, and after a confrontation with Lady Nazjar and Ozumat he was beaten back to the Abyssal Maw, the heroes attempted to rescue him, but ultimately failed as Neptulon was quickly taken away by Ozumat.
Beyond Azeroth
More old gods exist beyond the five of azeroth, but most information comes from the Outlands.
The Sethekk and the Dark Conclave Arakkoa serve a mysterious master, and the latter group, magically augmented by Gul'dan's curse, attempt to summon their master, which they call it a ancient and powerful evil. He looks similar to C'thun, another old god, and when the hidden mob name is revealed, he's called a Summoned Old God.[96]
The Black Blood of Draenor are oozes and the oozes of azeroth have been various times associated with the old gods, and it's very similar in name to Black Blood of Yogg-Saron, a ore made from the blood of the Old god Yogg-Saron.[97]
Harbinger Skyriss is a servant of the old gods, a qiraji prophet much like Prophet Skeram of Ahn'qiraj, is imprisioned in the Arcatraz of Tempest Keep. According to A'dal, he seeks to usher his masters' vision of conquering all of the worlds in the universe. [98]
