I don’t think there were any Orc heroes in the First War, barring the Frostwolves who didn’t take part and had their two leaders killed as a result. Broxigar likely committed a lot of violent and brutal acts, the same as Varok, things he probably regretted.
That said, I agree some more presence for him in the game would be nice, but it would probably hinge on knowing more about his history before his death, or rather between the Third War and before he was time travelled. The problem is, what we have now if we remove the time travel is him holding the pass at Hyjal, which is very heroic. But when Orc warriors aren’t hopped up on Fel (and arguably sometimes when they are), heroic actions like that are not only common, but culturally encouraged. So while him holding the pass is pretty heroic, it doesn’t necessarily put him above dozens of others.
He should have songs about him for it, though, that’s a weird outlier.
4 years later and this sounds like the perfect excuse for a Bard / Minstrel type class.
Writing and Learning songs that give effects.
You seriously need to paragraph.
As far as “injuring Sargeras” was more like. " Oh! a sting! How intriguing. As opposed to inflicting a major wound. (Spoilers: It didnt. It mostly served to put the Orcs on the Legion’s list of useful tools.
That puts a different spin on it, doesn’t it?

Honestly, the Sargeras thing is more impressive in the context of Brox having slaughtered so many demons he was effectively standing on a pile of them and his body was all but broken, yet instead of just dying he elects to take a swing at the big bad.
Is it really all that effective? No. Is it metal? Absolutely.
EDIT: Also holy thread necro.

@Drahliana It needs no correction. If it’s a problem then do not read it. What a horrible way to start criticizing someone. Nothing I said was wrong it was all true. You are downplaying Broxigar. Name another Horde member that hurt actual Sargeras small or not and not some Avatar of him. Tell me what other Orc slayed so many demons it would take a day to count. Sounds like you’re just ignorant.
