So.... Lightwalker?

Comentario de Steiner14512

It seems that every class has access to 4 different Combat Allies, being able to assign one of them at a time for 50 Recursos de la sede, helping you while outdoors in the Broken Isles. You can freely switch them around, unassign them to send them on missions etc., but assigning one will always cost Resources.
You can level your followers by assigning them as Combat Allies (at level 110, every quest and world quest gives 150 xp).
Combat Allies can be put in 3 categories:

Bodyguards: Pretty much the same as the bodyguards in WoD.

Will show up when you're on the Broken Isles (not in Dalaran or your order hall) and accompany you permanently.
Depending on the champion, will either be a pure dps, a tank (taunting every few seconds, but not necessarily holding aggro all that well), or a dps who will also heal you occasionally.
Classes without a tank spec don't seem to get tanking champions, I assume the same goes for non-healers.
Ranged dps will stand still while fighting, but they don't pull additional mobs even if they patrol right across them.
When bodyguards get killed, they will simply show up again seconds later with full health.
They will start attacking only when you attack something. If you get attacked by a mob, they will not automatically intervene. If you switch targets, they will switch a few seconds later. They will stop attacking cc'd mobs, e.g. disoriented.
Summonable allies: Can be summoned on a cooldown to help you for a short time.

If you have one of these assigned, you will get a button (Aliado de combate in the middle of your screen. You can drag that button to your action bars, same as the garrison abilities in WoD.
Will damage / debuff your enemies and/or heal you once or for a few seconds before they despawn.
"Random" allies: Will show up "randomly", but really when the internal cooldown is up and you meet a certain requirement (e.g. taking damage, so they will only show up while you're fighting).

When you're in a zone where the ally can show up, you will get a buff reminiscent of his ability.

None of the combat allies can be used while fighting a world boss.
Whenever you come near a world boss, bodyguards will disappear (but respawn when you move a few yards away). The random ally's buff will disappear and the summonable ally's ability will have no effect.

When you let your combat ally do most of the work and don't contribute enough dps, you might not get loot.

Rough dps/hps numbers for priest allies (single target):

Name	Type	dps	hps	Notes
Alonsus Faol	Random	8k	10k	Has a 90s internal cd. When you take damage and he's off cd, he will show up to channel Luz abrasadora unto you, healing you for ~900k and damaging any enemies in the way for ~700k each over 10s. He will mostly spawn in a way that the cast hits your target automatically, but you might need to adjust a bit and be careful to not move the mobs out of the beam. After the cast, he will melee your target for about 25k before he despawns. -> Good burst damage, especially if you have multiple mobs lined up. Since he mostly shows up at the beginning of a fight, most of the healing will be wasted. He won't show up if you're with a tank and don't take any damage.
Suma sacerdotisa Ishanah	Summoned	160	4k	Has a 5 min. cooldown (tooltip says 2 min.). When you use Luz de los naaru, she appears to cast Luz de los naaru once before despawning, healing you (and nearby allies) for 75% health and damaging enemies for ~45k. The radius is quite high, so she might pull additonal mobs, even if they're 10-20 yards away. -> Seems pretty pointless unless you need that big heal every 5 min.
Sol	Bodyguard	14k	26k	Rotates between damaging your target with Fuego Sagrado Punición Sagrada and healing you with Palabra sagrada: serenidad Sanar. Will only heal you when you're below 100%, will do more damage if there's nothing to heal (about 22k dps). -> Good sustained dps and healing, but only single target.
Zabra Hexx	Bodyguard	14k	0	Uses Palabra de las Sombras: dolor Explosión mental Descarga del Vacío Tortura mental to damage your target, also slowing it with Mind Flay. The fact that he applies Shadow Word: Pain to your target might be quite annoying if you're shadow and you don't track your dots with an addon like WA or TMW. -> About the same damage as Sol without any healing, only advantage is that he sometimes slows enemies.

All this has been tested by killing a few mobs (the same ones for every champion, no damage taken buffs etc.), so no big sample sizes. Char ilvl was ~840, follower ilvl 760 except for Ishanah (810). Zabra & Alonsus were common, Sol uncommon, Ishanah rare. I don't know if any of these factors influence dps/hps.

tl;dr: Seems like Sol is the best choice for mostly killing single mobs, whether you have a tank with you or not. Alonsus might be a good alternative if you often find yourself fighting multiple (melee) mobs.

To unlock Sol, you have to complete the quest "Awakening The Light", by getting 5 of the Pure Holy Light items from the follower missions. After you turn in that quest, you get Sol for free.

Comentario de Sephramus

So, the most important thing to know about Sol is that he is a stone-cold badass. If you aren’t taking this muscle-bound slab of lightspawn into the broken isles, you should just uninstall and go throw your computer into a trash can, because Sol has a Master’s Degree in bringing the pain and a PHD in keeping your stupid-ass alive. He literally gives no @#$%s, and will fight anything in the game while screaming “I AM LIGHT INCARNATE” and critting them with massive holy smites from the heavens.

Accidentally pull all of Suramar’s market because you got caught with your pants down by an orbitist? Don’t worry, Sol’s gonna keep you alive with his sweet, sweet healing because he knows that you guys are boys. A so-called group world boss punching your squishy priest body for more than you can shadowmend? Hit fade, and Sol will laugh as he absorbs the blows and keeps on bringing the fiery pain. And in the unlikely event that they take Sol down to 0, Sol just tells your enemies “I will return” and sure as *!@# comes back to life 5 seconds later to keep bringing the pain.

If you do send him out into the world on an Order mission because your job of farming world-quests gets interrupted by your ^&*!ty real-life job, Sol is even a badass there. Sol has countered entire missions by himself, taking on giant birds, angry ghosts, and horny demons with ease. But, don’t send him alone, because Sol gives 15% Bonus Success if he takes acolytes with him. That’s because Sol knows how to party, after crushing a keg Sol and your acolytes will be so hyped that the even Sargeras will be ^&*!ting himself in fear.

Take him world questing, take him exploring, take him to the club to pick up Draenei chicks with those massive guns he calls arms, doesn’t matter. Sol is your loyal wingman, and when you’re walking around with this guy, players and NPCs know you mean business. When your priests are talking about praising the light, they aren’t talking about some unknown human god, they’re talking directly about the unspeakable badass that is Sol.

Need a champion to help out with world questing? Better call Sol.

Comentario de rabhingm

He despawns after doing vehicle quests like the bombing run in Moon guard :( Not sure if it's a bug or intended.

Comentario de Quelynn

As a shadow priest, it's nice having the light follow you for a change. :p

I would kill to have a battle pet version of him and/or his lightspawn buddies.
Need more light blobs in my shadow life!

Comentario de ProdromusHarv

I hope Sol (and Light Spawns in general) get an updated model like Void Walkers.
Want to see Sol getting super smooth.

Son Of a ...... Light?

Comentario de magiccozmo

Anybody know how to MUTE this thing? My holy priest LOVES this minion , but its speech every 20 secs in combat get annoying...

Comentario de SpareSimian

Sol's voice reminds of Marvin the paranoid android from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio and TV shows from the BBC).

Comentario de Tizona

The BEST thing about SOL is shouting "TO PAAAAARTY!" every time he says "Fight for the light!"... :D

Comentario de osephala

Sol does not have a flying mount, it actually flies with you around the Broken Isles.

Comentario de sp0radic

I'm used to having a combat ally on my druid so having a bodyguard is new to me, but Sol seems like he's got some serious potential. Looking forward to decking him out in gold/OHR gear.

Comentario de Norecc

am i the only one, or someone else noticed too, that it sounds like a space marrine from warhammer 40k?

Comentario de LiriellGarrosh

I don't know what happened to Sol in the past couple of weeks (maybe since the most recent patch?) but occasionally, Sol does not enter combat as soon as I pull something. He will sit there going through the idle motions while I kill stuff by myself, especially the casters. If said pulled mob physically attacks me, sure, he's all over it, and the mob dies really fast. Otherwise, it's almost like he's saying, "I am a body guard, not a health pool guard. You're gonna die, but your body is fine. Look at you making a pretty corpse over there! You go, girl!"
