I mostly play goblin and undead warlock. This is just my forum post profile.

Same with you, Iā€™m sure you donā€™t actually play a lvl 10 elf.

She mentions in the post forsaken heritage armor questline that she wishes to return to her people once sheā€™s done in the Maw.

But will they even accept her is the point.

66

most of my characters are Orcs and blood elves.

67

Mine are mostly goblins because goblins are the best race.

68

Some will I assume. Others might mistrust her for a while. I guess weā€™ll have to wait and see.

I could see her as a neutral hero though. Akin to Khadgar. One alliance leaning and one horde leaning neutral hero would be a nice change of pace

my current list looks like this.

  • 1 normal troll hunter
  • Zandalari shaman and druid.
  • goblin mage and rogue.
  • 6 blood elves of various classes(Mage, hunter paladin, DK, DH and rogue)
  • 1 Nightborne mage
  • 2 magā€™har orcs and 2 normal orcs
  • 1 HMT shaman and 1 Grimtoten Tauren warrior
  • 1 night elf priestess
  • 1 Horde Pandaren Monk
  • 1 dwarf warrior
  • 1 Horde Earthen warrior
  • 1 undead mage

I canā€™t stomach right now to play as an Orc warrior. Sadly. I will wait til they mak the Dragonmaw skin options avaiable.

71

Kultiran warrior (closest to vyrkrul will get)

Human paladin (that I donā€™t play)

Earthen paladin (horde, I do play)

A void elf that I leveled to 60

A blood elf paladin to 70

Goblin warlock

Undead warlock

Goblin hunter

Goblin warrior

Goblin mage

Goblin shaman

Mag orc warrior and shaman

Warrior worgen. Now a fury werewolf is fun

Oh and a zala pally troll I got to 50 during remix only for the heritage armor

Where is my goblin paladin!

72

12 of them are at level 80 already. The rest is 70. Alting is my new favorite thing in the game which is why I forgot to do real content to get ready for raiding.

You know with Eredar being given a chance I feel like dargonmaw skins and Fel Orc model might be coming in too soon some day.

People will pick hills to die on I guess

I feel like she might be neutral for a while because basically everyone is weary of her, Horde included, but eventually people will see that she really changed and will welcome her back. Some eargerly, some begrudgingly. Iā€™m really excited to see her reintegration to the Forsaken.

Iā€™m not, hope she never returns to the forsakan. I hope she stays in the woods by herself with no one around.

75

Imagine how cool it would be to play a Dracthyr DK and have customizations like ragged wings, exposed bones or even straight up skeletal models like we saw in a DF cave. That would be so cool.

Sylvanas Windrunner says: Greetings, my most loyal ally. I speak to you now from beyond the veil of Death.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: Here, in this place of eternal darkness, my workā€“my penanceā€“continues.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: Though the Maw is an unlikely place for one to find peace, each soul I rescue helps mine feel a little moreā€¦ whole.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: As I ponder my deeds since being raised into undeath, I have many regrets. Things said and choices made that I wish could be taken back.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: But there is one thing for which I will always be proud: helping the Forsaken find their place in a world that shunned them.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: My time to lead may be over, but I will always stand with you against those who would cast you out and call you monsters.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: Under the leadership of the Desolate Council, a new group of voices has arisen to represent all Forsaken.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: Stand proud in the Horde. Know that all of you were so much more than arrows in my quiver.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: As much as the family I was born into, you will always be my people. And one day, I do hope to walk among you once again.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: I must go. There are many more souls yet to be freedā€¦ among them, one that is most dear to me.
Sylvanas Windrunner says: Shorelā€™aran, my friend.

I am glad Danuser repaired Sylvanas as good as he could from the damage that was done to her story in BFA. May she return soon with better dialouge that is not just her twirling a long mustache.

Some of her best lines work because she was being outright hubristic while teetering the line of villainy if not out right villainous.

If she returnsā€¦ she certainly wonā€™t be that. She will be dialed back a lot.

They donā€™t have to make Sylvanas good, but maybe make her serve good by being ā€œanti-evilā€ - if she can still be sassy and cruel to someone - like bad guys at least - that would be good.

I wouldnā€™t want her to come back all mopey about what ever events may have occurred previously. Or being some lecturing harridan of good who ends up being some background dancer for the Anduin party.
