Stoneform (aka stone fleshTemplate:Cite, stoneskinTemplate:Cite or avatar) is a dwarven racial ability that has many effects without a downside. It increases armor, so handy for melee attacking and tanking. It rids yourself of all poisons, diseases, and bleeding, and gives you total immunity to those debuffs for 8 seconds.

Titans crafted the dwarves from stone to assist them in creating the Azeroth of today. Since this discovery, the Ironforge dwarves zealously search for any sign of their ancestors or the titans. This newfound knowledge also unlocked enchanted energies of their heritage, enabling Ironforge dwarves to perform spectacular feats. The dwarves have rediscovered the power to return to their original forms, and turning skin to stone. They firmly believe that other powers are waiting to awaken within them; all they need is the key.Template:CiteTemplate:Cite

Notes

Removes all rogue poisons such as Ability poisonsting [Crippling Poison], Ability rogue dualweild [Deadly Poison], Mind Numbing Poison, Inv misc herb 16 [Wound Poison], etc. Also removes the rogue's Ability rogue rupture [Rupture] as well as Ability rogue garrote [Garrote].

Removes all warrior bleed effects like Ability gouge [Rend] and Ability backstab [Deep Wounds].

Also removes the druid finisher Ability ghoulfrenzy [Rip], an undead priest's Spell shadow devouringplague [Devouring Plague], and a hunter's Inv spear 02 [Wyvern Sting], Spell hunter exoticmunitions poisoned [Serpent Sting], Ability hunter potentvenom [Viper Sting], Ability hunter criticalshot [Scorpid Sting] and Ability hunter snaketrap [Snake Trap] poisons.

Tips and tactics

  • Stoneform is incredible against rogues, and effective for any class. With this skill, even warrior, hunter or rogue dwarves can dispel some of their debuffs, so it's a plus for soloing, especially when you are inflicted by Diseases that tend to last for 5 to 30 minutes.
  • Since it removes bleeding efects it is very useful during some raid encounters where you take heavy bleeding damage and you would otherwise die. Example: Moroes in Karazhan.

Past changes

As of Patch 2.2, Blind is now a physical ability and cannot be removed with Stoneform.
