Bloodthistle seems to be analgous to real-life drugs:After using consuming it, players will get Bloodthistle Withdrawal
Borak calls Envoy Icarius a "thistlehead"
Borak asks you to get bloodthistle from Tobias, who questions the player, "bloodthistle? Never heard of it... Are you a peacekeeper? You know you'd have to tell me if you were... I've got rights!"

This is super, if not excellent for a RP Blood Elf.
With herbalism it is almost your blood elf duty to have lots of stacks of this stuff and use it to control your addiction to magic.
Also sells for a nice lump of cash to other potential Blood Elves who are eager to withstand their lust for magic.
An idea is to stand behind a rock in front of Karazhan on a Saturday evening and wait. Whisper each blood elf that might pass about "ways to control the hunger". And make him spend all he's money on drugs so he can be high for a full raid night,
there might be money in this people.

This may be useful for lvl 19 caster/healer twinks actually, since it does stack with any buff or food. 10 extra spell damage/healing would make the twink a little bit stronger, just be sure to rebuff with this before it wears outand the debuff comes.

this is herbalism drop but it isn't potion component?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Hey,
Bloodthistle is a stand-alone reagent. You simply right click to use and you get a buff called "Bloodthistle" which gives +10 dammage and healing for 10 mins. After this you become afflicted with a de-buff called "Bloodthistle Withdrawal" which lasts for 20 mins and is -5 Spirit

According to WoWWiki:-

This temporary affliction can escalate into a full-blown addiction to bloodthistle, and "thistleheads" are looked down upon in blood elf society.

Bloodthistle can be compared to cocaine from its addictive properties and the similar term "cokeheads".

Excellent for leveling up Herbalism quickly, and effectively.

Just camp around the East Sactum and you'll find ~4 bushels that respawn every 5 minutes. You can start harvesting right when you train the skill.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

This appears to be neither Elixir nor buff food, and thus can be used at all times without overwriting anything (until nerfed)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

This doesn't state it, but Bloodthistle is Blood Elf only. When the 10 minute buff runs out, it applies a 20 minute debuff called Bloodthistle Withdrawal that lowers Spirit by 5.

Rogue is the only Blood Elf class that does not use Mana. It would appear they gain no effect from this whatsoever.

Anybody know how much this actually adds to damage? And if it scales with level?

Комментарий от Thottbot

Only blood elves can use it. Read description for the rest.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Wait, what are all those other races? Looks like Blood Elves then a bunch of NPC races.
Blood Elf, Fel Orc, Naga, Broken, Skeleton?

Комментарий от Thottbot

it just buffs your magic spells for 10 minutes

Комментарий от Thottbot

Increases spell damage and healing by 10 for 10 minutes. Apparently when it wears off, you get Bloodthistle Withdrawl (-5 spirit) for 20 minutes, probably cancelled if you use another Bloodthistle.

Комментарий от Thottbot

you will get a quest in shadowmoon valley regarding Bloodsthistel, goes to show that bloodsthistle must be some magical plant or something like that that some blood elves devour to ease their hunger for magic, in other words.. to blood elves this is like crack or something ;)

It's basically the blood elf equivalent of weed, as shown by the prominent withdrawal symptoms.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I found 5 of them by the North Sanctum in Eversong Woods. As a Herbalist you can herb-gather them no matter what's your lvl.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Personally i'd think this to be more like the blood elf cocaine, as weed isn't physically addictive and doesn't have bad withdrawal symptoms.

Also, look at blood elves, they're like 50 pounds each, of course they're coke heads!

Комментарий от Thottbot

I'd say its more like marijuana considering where you find it - close to Belf buildings, mainly private ones...

Where do you find marijuana? cellars O.o

Комментарий от Thottbot

Love this stuff for my blood elf 39 warlock twink. I always consume it on the battle grounds. +10 dmg and healing to spells is pretty significant, considering this herb is lvl 5 and in the starting area of the blood elves. I don't think a lot of blood elves even know what this is. I never see any BE's buffed with this. I'm the only one it seems.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I can just make an alt herbalist and send the leafs to my blood elf right? Even though only a blood elf can use them, I can still gather them with another race?

Комментарий от Thottbot

can be gathered by any race and can be consumed only by blood elves. funny, i am full t5 and i just found those %^&*s. never been on eversong anyway ;P

Комментарий от Thottbot

I regularly run around in eversong to grab these for my tankadin, any spell damage is good spell damage.
