A sunreaver mage ported us the players into the nelfs home and we stealthed to the bell to port it to dalaran which was then ported to silvermoon by more sunreavers.
The sunreavers and kirin tor made a pact of nuetrality from either faction. But the sunreavers broke it.
The two sides get slightly different evrnts in the quest chains. Blizzard official lore tells us that people where arrested not killed. Game mechanics have thier limits.
Only people flat killed where those that resisted arrest and essentially tried to kill the cops trying to cuff them.
It could have been worse. As far as jaina new the bell was still in dalaran. She could havenjust flat blown the coty up and killed everyone.
The belfs where idiots and should have never helped gary at all. Or lead him on a wild goose chase or just flat destroyed the bell themselves and blamed it on jaina.
Jaina spent most of her life trying to help the horde. Without her thrall and friends would have died to her father.
After theramore and the sunreavers betraying her again with the bell she was done. The horde broke the one person they owe the most.
Be thankful kalegos and thrall where able to beg her to stop from wiping org from the face of the map after theramore.
Hell we are lucky she doesn’t grab the focusing iris and turn every horde city into a pile of arcane ash.
You act as though wows races get along. They don’t. Elves and humans have always looked down on each other. Even elves hate each other for multiple reasons. Belfs were at war with trolls for centuries. Despite trolls being the ancestors of elves.
And gen? Consider what hes lost. Thanks to the orcs, the forsaken, the scourge, the worgen curse, and sylvie specifically. He has every reason to hate the horde.
Don’t forget the elves and gilnains voted for the orcs to be executed after the 2nd war not put in prison.
Its part of the reason why the gilneans built thier wall and the belfs are isolationists.
The belfs only put fourth a real army to help the humans in the first war after the orcs directly attacked and killed them.
The racist human commander hated the elves because they stood by well the orcs butchered his family, home, and friends.
So when crap hit the fan he abandoned the elves like they did to him.
Theres nothing moral about it its just the facts. Look at real life and all the bodies we humans have created in our time on earth.
I don’t see them as villains. In fact, I love Jaina a lot (platonic, not that waifu nonsense).
Thing is, she lead an assault on Dazar’alor that ended up killing the beloved Zandalari king. That alone places a massive target on her head, and a label of “villain” is acceptable if one is loyal to the Zandalari and Horde overall (which I am not).
I’m not surprised if the entire Horde is going to double their efforts to kill her now, after their failed attempt in the raid.
As for Mekkatorque, he was just… kind of in the way. Used his abilities to the best of his knowledge to give Jaina enough time, and of course since the Horde had vengeance in their eyes, they showed no mercy to the poor Gnome.
He seems like a good person regardless of the raid, and I felt a bit bad attacking him (though not as bad as attacking Jaina). I’m curious as to what they have planned for him.
No. In lore, Jaina and the silver covenant went through out dalaran and was killing innocent blood elves. Shop keepers- people who had nothing to do with that “single” garrosh spy that triggered it all. Knowing the alliance so well, it seemed that it worked- to prevent Theron from entering into talks with the alliance again. Funny how a single person can trigger hate crimes because of someone’s race- which mind you, was the entire reason the silver covenant was formed to start with. to finish what arthas didn’t. All so she can continue her delusional superiority over “being the only one left of her kind”. And it brings everything that Elisande said to Veressa, into perspective. About “Playing at nobility”. She is a coward who hides behind humans and their culture, while taking advantage of their hospitality and resources- to achieve her own agenda. Which is to erase any trace of her noble lineage and in doing so, can re-create it as her own. No different than erasing the fact that WWII happened. Those who do not learn from the past, are doomed to repeat it. So it solidifies who took it too far and who did not act justly. The spy was caught and put in prison- an inch beyond that, is evil.
Death was the first option. Imprisonment was only the second, in regards to morale.
To add: Did the horde (Blood elves specifically) go around killing innocent humans anywhere, because of that incident? No. Who brought Garrosh to justice for his crimes? The horde did.
The alliance owes the horde MANY lives.
I disagree, while I am not a huge fan of the story overall it is nice to see a raid based around the idea of the faction conflict. Any other method isn’t likely, it would take too much work to make two separate raids for each faction and then you would also have to deal with the complaints about which raid is easier.
Oh, let’s not have Blizzard do work so that the game makes sense! /s
If they’re going to make us fight faction leaders then they should do that work. Waving their hands and saying, “Now you get to see it from the other side!” is not a good solution since that’s the whole point of playing your side!
What you said right there whats more to explain? She sticked to being the same character she always been. Unlike Sylvanas who gets retconned to be a cartoon villain with a mustache.
