Yep, Tyrande was shown to be extremely weak and needed malfurion to save her from Nathanos. She even failed to kill Belmont right after saying she wasnât going to spare anyone else. There was never a more pathetic showing for a racial leader than the night warrior.
Iâd thought Tirisfal still belonged to the Forsaken.
Thereâs a short epilogue at the end of the War Campaign in BfA that has Lillian Voss invite the player character to join her at the Calston estate, just east of Death Knell, where she introduces Callia and Derek to the Night Elf dark rangers.
The group of them sans Voss are last seen walking in the direction of Death Knell.
Iâd assumed from this that western Tirisfal, and presumably the east as far as the Bulwark, were still Forsaken territory.
The large north/south strip in the middle â the burn zone â is not updated in game so itâs hard to know if thatâs been reclaimed. Itâs left as if the battle happened hours ago.
The city and its immediate surroundings are of course lost to the blight.
Disclaimer: I donât read the books, maybe itâs mentioned there that Tirisfal is lost.
Maybe this is off-topic. My apologies if so. Iâm curious now though I admit.
Tyrande and Furion have an⌠interesting relationship. It seems to consist mainly of bailing each other out when their respective godlike powers are on the fritz.
Sheâs not saying sheâs not mad. Sheâs saying that her madness has failed to actually help the night elves (which is true). Sheâs saying that rather than double down on the whole vengeance thing, they need to rebuild their own community (which is true). And sheâs saying that becoming the Night Warrior ultimately was not that great of an idea - which is true!
If it had come as part of an actual character arc with development and reflection, I think this would be ideal. Tyrande has learned that you canât eat anger; you canât shelter your children with revanchism. Her responsibility as a leader is to put aside her (entirely understandable) rage and get down to brass tacks, which in this case means doing what the night elves need to do to survive.
Sadly all indications are that she wonât actually learn anything from this, because instead of actually losing anything or being confronted with the consequences of her choices, she just gets another moon magic ritual that makes everything better until they need her in the story again.
The writers are horde biased and hate alliance and specially night elves. Not surprised. Also on the last partâŚit is canon that the night elves took Darkshore back so we have that. The horde cannonically lost Darkshore and the other WF zone.
Actually incorrect. Tendrassil or " the world tree" is not gone, it has been destroyed before and slowly regenerated itself over time. The nightmare has attacked before in WoW history too and learned from previous battles. itâs a magical tree thatâs unique for being one of the few of its kind.
I agree with you, except for Tyrande
I think what happened at the BfA now feels snotty.
She had the power of the night warriors for a reason to bring vengeance and justice.
But she didnât do anything with it and now in Shadowlands she should be rescued because she threatens to die under the power of the night warrior. Now she has been saved without making a sacrifice.
It is really ridiculous. There could have been interesting conflicts in the Alliance. But Blizz probably didnât know what they wanted and rowed back.
Itâs kind of stupid to have the night warrior âââpowerâ"" not doing anything and then she has to make some sacrifice for something so pointless. If it was shown to have impacted the story or was shown to be powerful that is different, but the power as it is now was entirely useless and nothing was accomplished with it.
