Transform into demon form permanently in Kalimdor

[advanta]

There are burning blade mobs located in Thunder Axe fortress (Desolace) and in the cave next
to Ogrimmar in Durotar, which give off a buff called "Fel Blood" when killed. At 5 stacks, this temporarily
transforms you into a demon, the same model as used with warlock's demonic fury.

The transformation can be made permanent if you hearth or teleport to a location anywhere
in Kalimdor. Porting to the eastern kingdoms or instances will remove the buff, as will logging
out. Otherwise, the buff is permanent.

You can mount while in demonic form, which looks, to say the least, somewhat interesting.

The transformation raises your critical strike rating by 25%. Unfortunately this seems to
be removed if you attack anything.

Can not confirm. Did not work on first attempt - buff expired as expected. I got 5 stacks, turned into a demon (and so did my pet!), then out of combat I used a cape teleport to orgrimmar, went through the loading screen and when the buff fell off, it ran out.

Tried again with my hearth in orgrimmar too, and the buff, again, fell off and I turned normal. Is there something I'm not getting?

Edit: Huh. On the third try, it worked. The buff just disappeared yet I stayed in the form. Awesome post.
To clarify, it worked when I ported to a different zone.

I tried doing this multiple times and still have failed to keep the form, am I doing something wrong? I have hearthed/teleported to org many times after i turn into the demon. :/

Edit: Tried the mobs in desolace then telported, it worked!

[Bhald]

Surprised this is working. It was supposedly fixed a while ago.

[Alfalfa]

Figured it out, you have to teleport out of durotar for the buff to leave but stay demon form.

Btw it persists through death.

[Barnold]

That's awesome if it works then, I've always loved the demonic form these guys give you.

It may or may not be purely visual.

Your critical strike rating IS increased by 25%. That said, it seems to drop off very quickly in combat.

There are some possibilities here:

1) The buff mechanic has a fail-safe and is removed when you attack something.
2) The buff mechanic has a fail-safe but takes a few seconds to be removed and so is mildly useful.
3) The buff mechanic falls off in certain situations but can be extended in others, which could be a very big deal.

Yeah, that seems to be the issue. Thanks for figuring this out: I'm alliance so I had no idea porting
within the Ogrimmar zone would remove the buff.

Worked every time for me, I hearthed to Astranaar from Desolace, ported to Theramore, Darnassus.

Tested and working on US realm. The 25% crit buff sticks as well, but you cannot leave kalimdor or the buff and demon form will drop. +rep to OP.

Thanks for the stacking information, didn't know that.

The crit element would be very useful even in Kalimdor, you could have a lot of fun with it in the barrens or ogri as an alliance player.
Unfortunately, it seems to drop off in combat when you make your first attack. If any one can get it to last longer I'd like to know how,
that would be awesome.

I'll give this a shot for lolz. have a rep cookie.

I trust Alfalfa on his judgement on saying it works. so +3 from me advanta. and +3 to alfalfa for confirming if possible.

This just got more interesting...seems if you use al-li's skymirror while mounted you turn completely invisible.

Does this mean you can attack mobs without them being able to see you?

By the way, just for general info, the demon form is only visible client side. Everyone else will see you as normal. Tested this with my friend on US realm.
