High Elf POSITIVITY Thread 😎

There was no outcome which is why it’s bad writing.

Oh Nelfas, yeah she’s a troll. She’ll eventually get bored of trolling with the high elf topic and move onto something like shadow priests, which was the previous thing she was mega trolling on.

Well, fine, I may have had more around the Belf side, but the High Elves still sat around in Dalaran getting their addiction fed by the resources there while the Belves were struggling to survive with the withdrawal and the Scourge remnants that are still in their land, and at least then kept attacking them.

id rather this one be spammed tbh. as it makes no sense. and has nothing to do with giving void elves uncorrupted hair in the title

That pretense of secrecy most probably doesn’t include something as serious as the alleged “ethnic cleansing”, carried out one standing army against another standing army. :man_shrugging:

Just the player character burning them alive, electrocuting them to death, or melting their skin off with the concentrated power of the sun. :man_shrugging:

The law doesn’t care about what message you intend to send with your violence, the law cares about the particulars of your violence. :man_shrugging:

Yes, there was. :man_shrugging:

This is the real thread for High Elf, Blood Elves, and Void Elves.

Tbf shadow priest players deserve it.

Hey now!

…

Nah… you’re right…

It clearly does since it took the secrecy of the sewers for them to resort to such cruel and unusual methods of killing the Sunreavers in comparison to the events that took place topside. It’s no coincidence they chose the Dalaran sewers to demonstrate such an elaborate and ugly way of killing a sunreaver.

Again your argument is unauthentic, as these are standard ways for players to defeat their opponents within the context of a video game, while the events that took place in the sewers were deliberately written to elicit a reaction from the players based on it’s cruel nature. The Silver Covenant in question was not painted as someone just following orders, but an evil individual indulging in torturous violence, he’s even described as a “nasty” individual within the quest.

Additionally these events are left up to the players, while Silver Covenant NPCs were deliberately chosen to carry out the executions in the sewers. Therefore not really comparable.

Except this is a video game where the writers and developers are trying to send the players a message, so when they design a quest with a NPC who uses the secrecy of the sewers to kill Sunreavers in deplorable ways, it’s intentional and not the result of happenstance.

Your argument requires either exaggeration, or invalidating evidence based on realism that doesn’t apply to narrative storytelling within video games.

This is a mischaracterization of events, ultimately, because it’s suggesting that while the Blood Elves were struggling the High Elves weren’t – let us not forget that after the Scourge had invaded Quel’thalas, they immediately turned their sights onto Dalaran (which was obliterated, effectively shattered to dust).

The two groups went through the same period of lacking, wherein they were all riddled by the pangs of addiction, before some measure of relief was found (for Blood Elves this came in the form of mana crystals delivered from Outland, for High Elves this manifested as enchanted items gifted to them by their compatriots in Dalaran).

It’s also canonical that the player character witnesses these killings in the sewers, meaning it’s hardly likely that the Kirin Tor is unaware of what transpired – that they’ve yet to even reprimand a single individual implies that they don’t feel as if legal action was/is warranted. :man_shrugging:

Like deciding the blood elves are inherently cowardly and lazy for reasons?

There’s a world of difference between accepting reality and foolishly hanging onto something that’s never coming.

The former is healthy, the latter isn’t.

The players also kill the perpetrators of these “murders” so who you expect them to punish is beyond me. And “secrecy” is the whole point of the Dalaran sewers, and the location he feeds the Sunreaver to the shark is the same exact location the player is sent to secretly assassinate someone as well, and despite many NPC bystanders, you’re also never apprehended, so by your logic senseless murder is also allowed in Dalaran.

it’s obvious this location was used to emphasize the Silver Covenant’s need of secrecy to kill a Sunreaver in a more malicious way than needed, and that he was not just “following orders” but indulging in a senselessly violent murder to satisfy himself.

The comment about them being cowardly was presented as a personal opinion, not a matter of fact.

It’s nice to see that you’re more interested in slipping in a low-effort “gotcha” than you are in actually responding to the bit of my post which pointedly demonstrates some level of ignorance, on your part, as it relates to the realities of the living situations for both Blood Elves and High Elves is. :man_shrugging:

I’ve maintained, throughout this entire discussion, that whatever the Kirin Tor permits is allowed in Dalaran – and, thus far, there hasn’t been anything proffered to suggest otherwise. :man_shrugging:

Or that blizzard just kinda forgot that these sorts of things have major implications. I mean they all but abandoned the SC until Legion…

Also of note they apparently separated their ties to Dalaran somewhat then since they all but abandon the city and join the Unseen Path, while the Sunreavers are regaining their place in Dalaran.

There’s nothing to suggest they’ve become estranged from Dalaran, at all – they’re still operating counter to the Sunreavers, even now in Shadowlands.

So you get to opine freely, but I must present peer reviewed facts in response?

They no longer even hold their section of the city and they’ve left. We only see em in Highmountain and during Suramar. They’ve left and lost their home? Sounds estranged.

The Sunreavers are involved in a story trying to get back into the city by contrast.

As for Shadowlands, why they’re even still involved in the Tournament Grounds is a big question mark as well. Since Dalaran isn’t there anymore, and thats an Argent Crusade holding. (that goes for the Sunreavers too)

This…

…isn’t presented as an opinion. I helped you out, by correcting your erroneous understanding of historical events, and you chose to ignore it because the actuality of events clashes with the way you’ve chosen to see the Blood Elves.

That you prefer to ignore truth, as presented by the Warcraft Chronicles, is your prerogative. :man_shrugging:

This isn’t indicative of anything, inherently. :man_shrugging:

Citation Needed.

The point is, they’re continuing to act as foils to the Sunreavers. The specifics of why either group is there are both unknown and, until we know more, unimportant.
