Sure, it was Deathwing that devastated the numbers of the Blue Dragonflight. Not, you know, the pointless war Malygos started and waged.
It was. By the time of the Nexus War the Blue Dragonflight was severely diminished. It’s why almost all of their forces are non dragons.
Deathwing destroying a majority of the Blue Dragonflight during the War of the Ancients with the use of the Dragon Soul is the reason Sindragosa is dead and Malygos lost his mind.
But Malygos’s war is why the flight is scattered and disjointed.
The deathwing thing was first. Then by the time we deal with him he’s been grieving and going kinda bonkers because of it
No the flight is scattered and disjointed because Kalecgos disbanded the flight after the defeat of Deathwing.
Edit: Although they were already kind of falling apart, as were all flights, due to the loss of purpose that came with losing the aspect powers. But they were still together as a flight through the rest of WotLK and all of Cataclysm.
I know the Deathwing thing was first and it dealt a major blow to the Blue Flight. But Kal is being straight revisionist by not putting a great onerous on Malygos going bonkers and causing the Nexus War.
Deathwing killed the majority
Malygos saw mortals going crazy with magic and basically ptsd’d himself imagining the destruction of the dragon soul again, so we murder him instead of trying anything else, the flight was already basically over then
Then Deathwing came back, and Kalecgos was like, bro there’s like 8 of us, y’all can just do what you want at this point
Yeah…true shame too as Sindragosa seemed like a real kind gal…and then Arthas turned her into a frostbrood and she wanted to wipe out the living…and we put her to rest again… poor gal. Malygos lost I think all his consorts or the vast majority of them to Deathwing that day…Sindragosa was the one he held most dear though and thus it hurt him that much more. Malygos’s insanity is understandable… he got betrayed by one he trusted most…who was like a brother to him and then he lost those he loved and cared for… that kinda grief can do a lot of damage for sure. May he rest in peace alongside his prime consort
It’s extra messed up when you remember we killed his new consort in wrath and burned her corpse just to get his attention
kalecgos doesnt snitch on his former aspect.
Yeah…that too… it’s no wonder he wanted to wipe us out honestly. It was like we found him old and crazy and decided to off his new mate and give him the finger
And yet everyone is snitching on Neltharion.
If you look too close, we are generally the bad guys most of the time.
We conveniently forgetting that Malygos’s War killed members of the Red, Green and Bronze Dragonflight and they supported what we did? The Wyrmrest Accord was trying to prevent a second Deathwing arising.
The world breakers would like a word with you
We weren’t the bad guys in this one. Malygos and the Blues aligned with him wanted to commit global genocide against multiple races and had, in their hubris, damaged the World Soul.
We were putting down a mad dog.
Right? Like when you kill Malygos, Alexstraza shows up with loot.
I don’t know what you’re talking about.
/drops puppy in acid
I mean, it was a fel puppy laced with a necromatic plague. How else we supposed to safely dispose of that thing?
Look it could have been a newborn baby… Daddy needs alchemy skill
