Daily reminder that Lord Godfrey the CHAD one-shot Sylvanas

According to the recton mess, its been since she jump off Icecrown.

Godfrey should have stayed part of the forsaken

Would have made the forsaken vs worgen thing make way more sense

That hardly matters, though. When Godfrey killed Sylvanas, he did so in broad daylight. Everyone knew he did it. Using daggers would have simply made it easier for her to react when he got close. Not to mention, rogues have magical stealth. The sound doesn’t matter when you can just get away.

Well, Sylvanas got killed in one hit, so only one bullet was needed. Any gun user would sinply bring a lot, like hunters used to do in-game.

https://www.battlefields.org/learn/articles/small-arms-across-three-wars#:~:text=Most%20muskets%20were%20lethal%20up,was%20used%20in%20each%20shot.

“Most muskets were lethal up to about 175 yards, but was only “accurate” to about 100 yards, with tactics dictating volleys be fired at 25 to 50 yards. Because a portion of the powder in a cartridge was used to prime the pan, it was impossible to ensure a standard amount of powder was used in each shot.”

Being able to fire 25 to 50 yards is way better, than having to run up and getclose to your enemy. If you do that, your enemies hit rate will increase dramatically. Even today mosy shots fire in war miss. Not all guns in this game are muskets, either.

Why? Even in this fantasy setting, swords are just hunks of metal you stab people with no different than real life swords. With swords and guns the way they are in this game, a gun-user would always win.

I think you’re trying too hard to justify something that is only for gameplay reasons and doesn’t have a lore or logical explanation.

The point of my comment about guns in this thread was to point out how powerful guns were, since Godfrey used one to kill Sylvanas easily.

The average person can close a distance of 25 feet in less than 1.4 seconds the average reaction draw and fire speed.

A knife in close to medium range is a superior weapon if the shooter is clueless.

This subject line made me laugh too hard.

There will be a secret mythic only cinematic where lord godfrey comes back and finishes sylvanas.

Quiet, more easily concealable than a firearm, a higher fear factor when presented, requires no extras (ammo), but the drawbacks could be high as you need to get in close and depending on your target your personal strength and agility play a factor.

we are gooder in lfr we prolly gonna get the boos in like 6 try

I’m pretty sure there are going to be instances where someone is going to want to kill someone without raising any alarm. Just because that was unnecessary now this one instance that does not mean it is unnecessary in all instances. Guns are too loud for stealthy assassination, that’s why poison and daggers exist.

Okay, again, just because it worked out for Godfrey doesn’t mean it will always work out. Also, technically she got back up, so I guess one bullet wasn’t enough.

Also, there is a limit to how much ammo you can carry, both in game and IRL. Sometimes you will run out.

That’s not really an argument against what I was saying. Thanks for proving that guns are less reliable than you were initially making them out to be.

Also why would you have to ‘run up’ to someone in game with magic? You could just teleport behind them and stab them in the back before they knew what was happening.

That’s painfully wrong. We have swords that can steal your soul, that can spread rot and plagues, swords that channel the holy light to blast their opponents into ashes, and swords that can fire bolts of flame or waves of shadow. In a game with magic, swords tend to be much more than mere lumps of metal.

And my point is that Sylvanas still lived because of magic. Guns aren’t powerful in a setting with magic, they just have a niche that they fill for hunters who do not have access to magic or enchanted weapons.

Melee weapons have their niche in combat too, and should not be underestimated for what they are good for.

Chad was always a positive term if you’re a chad.

Oh my God, I’m so glad I avoided this argument.

Dude, you’re moving the goalposts and talking about irrelevant things. I’m done arguing.

I must not be average then. I could do it in 1.4 minutes and be out of breath by the time i got there.

my patience is working on 8bits.

i got about 255 pulls in me.

Lore =/= ingame strength. An example is KJ, he is WAY more powerful in lore then he was in the fight. He had to be nerfed in order to be killable.

Not in close quarters but in closed surroundings. Close quarters means you and the enemy are close to each other, but if you have the room to swing a sword it’s far more effective.

Unless they are FAR more skilled than you, they won’t be able to close the distance without getting cleaved. In you’re in a tight hallway and can’t swing your sword then yes, the knife is superior.

Been a positive term for like a year.
