High Elf POSITIVITY Thread 😎

The priestesses knew what to do. Astarii extended her arms to a mother and her young son, who were among the last to enter the temple. “Do not be afraid,” she said to the boy, who was mute and trembling. “Come here.” With one arm around the mother and the other around her boy, Astarii sank to the soaked earth. The last three priestesses of Elune in Teldrassil prayed. They did not ask for healing or for rescue. They asked for mercy.

No redemption for sylvanas. Hopefully a horrible painful death and an eternity feeling what she inflicted on others.

If she gets redemption I’m done with blizzard games.

The factions were supposed to be at peace after the Legion invasion as well. Meaning at the end, they all agreed ‘let bygones be bygones’…and they she broke it.
It wasn’t right for Genn to break it, it wasn’t right for her to either.
Further, her method of breaking it was on a MUCH larger magnitude and unjustified. Genn was seeking to right a wrong she committed on him (personal revenge — just kill her).
She was seeking to kill TONS of people, including non-combatants. People she was supposed to be at peace with after the invasion was over.
It’s false equivocation to say ‘Oh they both broke the peace’…one was clearly worse than the other. It’s not a matter of POV.

Anyway, believe what you like, but she’s clearly a villain.
If you or anyone else cannot see it, that’s on you. Whether you are just being devil’s advocate or truly believe what you post is irrelevant at this point.

The thread has been derailed from being about High Elf Positivity to a Sylvanas discussion.


Ditto.

Well yeah you don’t really get to state your opinion at someone and then not expect them to formulate a reply.

To that end I think it was you who jump started the shift in conversation. And again you can’t really not expect to say your opinion without others also having an opinion.

The topic has never been off topic on my end. Sylvanas is a Windrunner and died fighting for Quel’thalas. She is a High Elf hero. And the conversation started on my end around how Blizzard has the potential to build up Vereesa on Alliance as her story has been rather dull compared to Sylvanas.

She could save the entire world and it completely wouldn’t matter. You don’t git 2 b gud by doing what she does.

That would almost be satisfying if she did save the world but then Tyrande just one shots her and everyone shrugs and goes home.

Oh and I hope we come out of shadowlands with a maw observatory in game where we can go watch her being tormented, taunt her, throw things at her. Still a better fate than she deserves honestly.

You’re not alone in that opinion, there are many who feel the exact same way. If she gets redeemed and gets to live, then shadowlands better be the best expansion blizzard has ever made because BFA’s story and gameplay combined was bad enough. And I enjoy story elements and RP a lot. Sylvanas getting redeemed would be the last straw for me.

So how would ya’ll like to see the SC be brought back into the story?

If they redeem her they could change every race to high elves and I’d still never give them another dime.

I’d like to see the different groups of high elves form a council and make a place for themselves.

That would be nice. At least tie them together so they can form a single Alliance based faction of them all.

I’m not a fan of councils for the most part, I like singular leadership a character at the forefront. Like Vereesa.

I would want a council on the Alliance overall leadership to allow races like Night Elves to take more of a leadership charge, it’s weird how they defer to Anduin imo.

But in a smaller level for HEs I don’t think I’d like a council but that’s me.

What if Vereesa lead the Council as a sort of Figure Head deal?

I think a council would fit just because of the different views they have. I mean silver covenant lives in a city of mages and has a large number of mages in its ranks as a result of that.

Highvale elves on the other hand largely left the arcane behind them. Plus there’s Auric and his angels. It might be interesting to see them do something with ranger lord Hawkspear too, the leader of the quel’lithien lodge. Maybe they even find a way to help bring the wretched of quel’lithien back to their senses.

You used the term ranger lord I’m not familiar with that, is he below Vereesa in the order of things or is he kind of just independently operating as part of his faction like you were saying about wanting them united.

That would be nice. That’s typically what I advocate for. Alliance Playable Silver Covenant High Elves. While not troll proof by a country mile, they at least have to work a bit if they want to.

That’d be nice. Former Far Striders, Silver Covenant, the Lodges, the Outland Expedition, Stormwind, Theramore survivors (if any), etc.
Doesn’t necessarily have to be that many, I was just listing off possibilities.
Likely a council of 3 would result, with Vareesa as a prime figurehead regarding interactions with the rest of the Alliance. Or keeping her military role as a general ceding day to day leadership to other named NPC’s.

Ranger Lord I would imagine is a high ranking Ranger. Probably below Ranger General. Quel’lithien must be operating separate.
