I had been looking for images and videos that show Saberon and Botani running off in the Mga’har Orc unlock scenario, since unless I’m mistaken, you can’t redo the allied race unlock scenarios. I came across a video and a screenshot someone took to show them off.
The following video should load at the 24:25 timestamp if it doesn’t take you there automatically:
As you can see, you have to quickly pan the camera around, and you’ll see two Botani and two Saberon running off. This screenshot shows this also:

Allegedly, there were also some of those Goren mobs, those mobs that roll around like Gorons from Zelda, in the area that run off elsewhere in Durotar. I haven’t seen any footage of that, though I think the Mag’har do utilize them in some world quests in BfA, so other than worrying about another invasive species in the area, there isn’t too much to note about that.
Now, as I’ve mentioned before, the game only shows two Botani and two Saberon, but it’s likely that more came with the Mag’har when you consider the following:
-The number of Mag’har Orcs that we see as NPC’s is greater and with more variety in clans than shown here. Bending time and space and nearly getting killed to bring that small number of troops shown in the video isn’t exactly worth it, so of course there are more in the story.
-The Mag’har brought with them several beasts from Draenor, some not shown here, and utilize a whole menagerie of them in some world quests. More than what is shown here.
-The number of player Mag’har Orcs is much greater than the numer of NPC’s shown here. Likely, all of Dutotar, flooding into the Barrens, would be filled with Mag’har Orcs if this was accurately represented.
So despite actually seeing two Saberon, an argument could be made that a bunch more Saberon came with us from Draenor. Possibly a tribe or two. With Botani, it doesn’t necessarily matter, because I assume they can just spawn others easily.
This is something I hope gets addressed in the future, preferably at least with playable Saberon becoming a thing. As I said, leaving the Botani off to do their own thing is utterly scary and likely something that is really going to be a problem in the future, which makes for great storyline potential.
I assume both the Botani and Saberon are doing fine fending off the undead rampaging across the world (of Warcraft!). Hopefully, we’ll see them in the near future and see where what they’ve been up to…well, at least with the Saberon.
