Identified final buff, and updated MotW to be GotW

| Jul 13, 2015 at 21:21 | comment | added | JonK | @twobugs I'm not sure it is - the Inner Fire icon that I remember is sort of like a ring with fire coming off the top. I do agree that it's a Priest spell however. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 20:04 | comment | added | two bugs | I believe the last icon (second from the left) is the priest spell Inner Fire. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 19:53 | comment | added | Troyen | I thought it was Divine Spirit as well, but was more familiar with the WotLK version. This page suggests the icon may have indeed changed over time. 99% sure it was a priest buff at any rate. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:59 | comment | added | JonK | @Powerlord Which is why I now think it's the version cast from a scroll, which I believe lasted for an hour. Although I'm struggling to find any references to such a scroll, so perhaps I'm misremembering it. Either way, it makes little real difference which version it is, they had the same effect. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:58 | comment | added | Powerlord | @JonK And yet, in Classic, Mark of the Wild only lasted 30 minutes not the 45+ shown. That's besides the whole having to cast the spell 40 times to cover the entire raid bit. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:56 | comment | added | JonK | @Powerlord No, back then PoF, PoS, GotW, AB and all of the Paladin blessings used the same icon as the group buff spell IIRC. It always used to set off my OCD when I had the single target buff icon instead of the group one... | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:52 | comment | added | Powerlord | @JonK That's the SPELL icon, the effect icon is just the Mark of the Wild icon. Same with Power Word: Fortitude and Prayer of Fortitude both using the Power Word: Fortitude icon for its effect. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:39 | comment | added | JonK | @Powerlord Except this is the GotW icon. I know there used to be some scrolls for buff spells, so I wonder if it was cast from one of those instead | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:37 | comment | added | Powerlord | That's Gift of the Wild, not Mark of the Wild. You can tell by the duration (Mark of the Wild only lasts 30 minutes and was cast on a single person). | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 18:12 | comment | added | JonK | @ChrisHayes I think originally DS used to be something you had to spec for, so maybe when it was a talent it had that icon, and that when they made it a core spell they changed the icon at the same time? | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 17:56 | comment | added | JonK | @ChrisHayes Did the DS icon change at some point? The only icon I remember ever seeing for it was this one, with the group version having three people on it instead of one. | |

Greated -> Greater

| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:33 | comment | added | Pyritie | Oh right, that's a good point. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:31 | comment | added | JonK | @Pyritie Oh absolutely - but that second unknown buff can't be one of them because the duration is too long... | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:30 | comment | added | Pyritie | yeah, but they were still useful in molten core and blackwing lair :) | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:29 | comment | added | JonK | @Pyritie I seem to recall the elemental protection potions weren't actually resistance potions as such, they just gave a one or two minute shield that blocked the next X damage from that school | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:23 | comment | added | Pyritie | I remember making a ton of those fire protection potions and that was definitely the icon they used. Vanilla wasn't very consistent with icons. Here's the buff they gave: wow-one.com/database/index.php?spell=17543 | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:21 | comment | added | JonK | @Pyritie Most potion buffs used the icon of the potion themselves (or at least they did back then). I'm pretty sure the first one is a Paladin or Priest buff, I just can't put my finger on it at the moment. The rest is pretty much from memory, but classic was a looong time ago now and I stopped playing just prior to WoD. | |
| Jul 13, 2015 at 9:17 | comment | added | Pyritie | The red shield looks like something a Fire Resistance Potion of some sort would give you. I'm not sure what the first unknown one is, but I really feel like I should know it! (source: I played on a private vanilla server 2 years ago) | |
