I’m hardly toppest of top-end but the systems they have in SL are not really a whole lot of fun for our raid either (we clear AOTC so nothing ermigerd hard). But, I would say that a good 40% of my raid, myself included, changed covenant, changed legendaries, changed both, or just outright changed classes as we progressed through Nathria, because in a lot of cases… the grass doesn’t just look greener, it IS greener, and that edge can help push you past a roadblock boss.
The difference between Battlegrounds and Warfronts is that Battlegrounds actually feel good to win instead of being a foregone conclusion. If there’s story content that leads up to “Now get in there and kill those Horde dogs! For Elune!” Then I’m gonna go in there and kill those Horde Dogs. And when I win it will feel amazing. And if I lose I’ll hit the queue button and try again. Because the story did it’s job and motivated me to want to fight the Horde instead of BfA where all it did was make it feel like a useless endeavor because the story already decided my fate is to lose.
Well, any future Sadfang cinematics (since that’s all BFA offered) will be easy to create- just a minute or two of an increasingly decayed corpse laying on the ground.
Slightly off topic, but Kyrian MM hunter is actually not bad if you’re looking for a non-Ardenweald option. Kyrian is slightly behind NF for single target, but as good or better for aoe.
Technically Nathanos is also dead. Yes, his soul went to the Maw, but if you haven’t noticed even the Jailor’s minions (save the Kyrian) are next to worthless without him building physical bodies for them. Tyrande killing him may have done what he wanted (because his entire character is doing anything and everything for Sylvanas, to the point where he probably knows he’s an expendable tool … and just doesn’t care) … but without a physical form he is “effectively” dead. He is a non-factor until the Jailor both builds him a body AND helps him also escape the Maw. And considering Sylvie’s usefulness seems likely to run its course soon, I don’t see Nate getting one.
Which means the only person on that list not dead, is Wix. If the Alliance players want him, he’s all theirs. Good luck tho’. His one and only real talent is self-preservation.
How about no? This weird obsession with killing horde aligned leaders is honestly nauseating. None of you actually mean it, you’re just trying to get a rise out of horde players.
We can come up with better solutions that doesn’t involve pissing on horde players while calling it rain and acting like the other team should be thankful the alliance is being soo generous
Some of yall have unhinged, mentally ill takes, forreal, like what
also
I was really hoping that the Tarrague was Nathanos; like his simp was so strong that the Jailer cuck-dominated him into becoming a Shade-Goliath that only existed to protect the tower
I mean, like, who cares? There is no PTR text to suggest that much more than that trinket remains of Saurfang’s soul; so we Hordies don’t even have the option of saving him. And while I doubt Sylvanas will “die”, it does sort of sound like she loses the use of her physical body by that dev’s slip of the tongue during a recent interview. Where we are “looting her corpse” (but, the corpse of a banshee is just a meat puppet anyway).
I do however think some Alliance posters really do just want to cull the remaining Horde roster. As bodying our “heroes” is additive to their expected power fantasy and thirst for revenge. Which is a little sad, considering when you think about it … the NEs alone have more developed reps remaining than like 5 of the Horde’s core races? Malf (A), Tyrande (A), Shandris (B), Maiev (B), Jarod (B). Where as the MU Orcs have 2 (Thrall (A), Eitrigg (B); Darkspear has 1 (Rokhan (B); Forsaken currently have 0 really; Bilgewater has 1 (Gazlowe (B); and the Mulgore Tauren 1 (Baine (A/B), since Hamuul hasn’t been around for years. Its quite the humbling list tbh.
