The Black Empire was destroyed by the Titans and their keepers well before the Aqir War. The Aqir War was instead started when Xal'atath tricked a Gurubashi witch doctor into waking up a slumbering C'Thraxxi general, who then killed the troll and led the Aqir against the Empire of Zul. So really, the war wouldn't have happened at all if it weren't for the trolls playing with dark power. And Xal'atath.

@@garroshhellscream594 I mean, Loa are supposed to be so powerful... but yet it seems like everyone just kind of smacks them around with no trouble. Even the loa Rezan just kind of fell into the dumbest trap ever out of impatience. You know, a multi millenia old being who existed since the Planet does? Who should be wise beyond measure and composed and even a little bit jaded, certainly realistic enough to know that charging an enemy who is very obviously taunting you is a bad bad idea? And that's the KING of Loas. All their other Loas either don't do shit, do the bare minimum, or just get killed off. Hell, their own people fuck them over, like the Drakkari, and the Loa seem entirely helpless somehow, despite Trolls acting like Loas will slit their throats if they don't do the daily tributes. Even goddamn Hakkar was a meme. I just don't get Blizz's hateboner for trolls. I know it's probably just convenient to write them off as "easy enemies" because there's so many trolls... but couldn't we just have a huge Gnoll dungeon or something? Some humans or elves? Far as I know, the only human dungeon in classic is like... Deadmines and Stockades, two incredibly forgettable dungeons. Maybe Shadowfang keep if you count the ghosts, but I personally count them as undead. Why not just a renegade band of humans/elves practicing blood/dark magic? Come to think of it, no Tauren dungeons either. We already have the Grimtotem tribe - perhaps them. Though I'm not sure, been a while since I played vanilla endgame content.

The Darkspear succeeded mightily. Their Chieftain became Warchief of the Horde. Some of their heroes are the most powerful on Azeroth, and saved the world more than once. And let's not forget the Dark Trolls. They found the Well of Eternity, mutated into elves, and became some of the biggest winners in the history of the world. Two powerful Alliance races and two powerful Horde races are descendants of Dark Trolls. Queen Azshara and all of the Naga are descendants of Dark trolls. Every interesting antagonist in the Burning Crusade expansion was a descendent of the Dark Trolls. One of the main antagonists of the next expansion is a descendent of Dark Trolls. The elves may not like it, but the history of the trolls is THEIR history.
@Masterwar154 жыл бұрын
Yeah, the only troll warchief lasted a single expansion where he didn't do absolutely nothing and died at the start of the next one. Now, Dark Trolls were still alive as far as Warcraft III, I wonder what happened to them in WoW...

@@dmtbtm2809 Exposure to Arcane energy transformed trolls into elves. Were they a different race, or the same race that had been altered by exposure to a magical energy source? Well, what shall we say about Akama, and the other broken? They were Draenei, but within the space of a single generation, they were transformed into completely different-looking creatures through exposure to fel energy. Did Akama belong to one race when he was born, and another race later on?I'm pretty sure that's not how races work. Akama may be called "broken", but he is really a Draenei who has been acted upon by fel energy. And what about Sylvanus? She was, undeniably, an elf. But then she died, and was exposed to death magic, and became what she now is. One minute, she was a high elf, and the next minute she was a Forsaken (though the name "forsaken" had not yet been invented for her race). Is that how races work? Do people suddenly transform from one race to another? No. She may call herself "Forsaken", but she is actually an undead elf. She is an elf who has been acted upon by death magic. When the dark trolls encountered the well of eternity, exposure to the arcane energy changed their physical bodies. At some point, these trolls decided to use a different word to describe themselves-elves. Apparently, at some point they also became ashamed of their troll ancestry, and sought to distance themselves from it. And yet, the ancestry remained. The elves and trolls hated each other, and warred over land and resources. But this certainly does not imply that elves do not have troll ancestors. Trolls fight amongst themselves, and elves fight amongst themselves. So do humans. So do orcs. Speaking of humans and orcs, these two races do not share a common ancestry. The humans have ancestors that were created by the Titan Khaz'goroth, whereas the orcs have ancestors that were created by the Titan Aggramar (in each case, they were created by Titans, not descended from them). A better comparison might be between humans and the Vrykul. These races definitely share a common ancestry, as the Vrykul were a more ancient race-predating humans. And if you trace the ancestry of any human back far enough, you will find a Vrykul. And if you trace the ancestry of any elf back far enough, you will find a troll. And everything the dark trolls did prior to to the "Well of Eternity" event is part of elven past. I repeat, elf history is troll history. And that makes the dark trolls some of the biggest winners in the history of this game.

Even a faint memory he made come to life was a seriously hard boss for the player character. Even in the movie they portrayed him so terrible in compare to all the other content. I mean his half-blood offspring was so powerful he basically could spit atomic bombs. I wish they portrayed him right in one of the caverns of time dungeons.. his opening of the dark portal was a seriously underwhelming terrible disguisting dungeon and I hate it.

As soon as one of the tribes evolved into something not-Troll (Night Elves) they all fell and never recovered. Even then though, Trolls were so bad, that their descendants the Night Elves attracted the attention of the Burning Legion and were pretty much destroyed by the not-Troll newcomers, Orcs and Humans.

The trolls can be seen as an ancient empire slowly receding and dying away, while new cultures and civilisations are developing and thriving on their own way to supremacy. It's a bit unfair to compare the trolls at the end of their glory days with the developing powers of the new races with the added powers of the well of eternity. At their peak the United Empire of Zul was the most powerful force ever seen in Azeroth. They actually beat back the combined forces of the olds gods and the united Qiraji empires in The Qiraji Wars. That means the united forces of the Qiraji empire in its glory days + the whole of the Nerubian empire + The klaxxi mantid lords + all the old gods forces and generals.A feat unsurpassed by any. The trolls were the most powerful empire of ancient Azeroth before the Kaldorei. But it has also become the most ancient and old, conquered by new times and new ways. The fact that a few troll forces of power and recognition still lives on, several thousands years later, is a testament to the strength and endurance of the trolls. Though the ever flowing ebbs of time are slowly washing the last troll civilizations away. Unless they are willing to modernize and create new alliances like the Darkspear.

The opening of the Dark Portal isn't 70 years after the Gurubashi attacked Stormwind, because that would've meant that Llane, Lothar and Medivh were around 90-100 when Warcraft 1 began. Also, Vol'jamba's prohecy was right, since it involved Zul attacking and destroying Zandalar, that's why Zul wanted the players to silence him because his prophecy could've alerted Rastakhan of Zul's coming betrayal. Only reason as to why Vol'jamba's prophecy wasn't unfolded was because the players stopped Zul. And the Drakkari fought the Argent Crusade; not the Argent Dawn.

I don't think it's crappy writing in of itself the concept that not every race is going to be prospering and have all the luck in the world, especially when there's fierce competition for limited land and resources and theirs dozens of sentient species all vying for dominance or atleast try to carve out niches for themselves. (doesn't mean they'll always succeed..)
@navilluscire25673 жыл бұрын
It's less about making them evil and more like players can never truly lose because well players hate losing so ofcourse they're preordained to win everything and always come out on top even if that involves ass pulls or Deus Ex Machina. Pretty much any side the players are on is always going to be the winners when pitted against a NPC faction or group or individual no matter how powerful they are, no matter how much Blizzard says how clever they are nor how long they've spent planning out things, no matter how many contingencies they may have devised it'll all come to nothing when players are involved. The only time players might actually lose something (narratively and or even in-game content wise) is when it's players on one story faction vs players on the other story faction.
@navilluscire25673 жыл бұрын
Me again. Sorry I know, sounding like a broken record but... It's also to do with poor worldbuilding in regards to the implications of ULTRA powerful magic existing within the setting. Literally no one in-universe seems to understand, appreciate, and respect the supreme power of magic and magic (in its various forms) is quite frankly stupidly overpowered rendering pretty much any side that doesn't have their own bullsh*t magic get absolutely destroyed by other groups that do have ample bullsh*t magic. Things like tactics and logistics or even just raw numbers means NOTHING if magic is involved, so magic is the be all, end all of everything, if a commander of an army doesn't account for magic and accept its awsome power then they can never hope to win a single battle let alone a war. Ofcourse even if a faction accounts for and utilizes magic it won't matter the minute a named character with bullsh*t magic that's even more ridiculously ovepowed shows up such as the case with Medivh, the former guardian, characters like him render strategy irrelevant and turn capable leadership that isn't a major lore character into complete pushovers, basically getting *"warfed"* to show of a character's power level. (killing any tension in the story up to the point before they showed up)

Also Malaka'raz isn't the final Drakkari that is living, it could be speculated that there are more in Northrend. And even if there is not, the Icetusk Tribe ARE Drakkari that simply fled Northrend when the Scourge first became a threat to their people, so they live on but under a different name.

So I've been thinking of a heritage armor quest line, That involves The player character going to each of the stronghold's of the major tribes and help them stabilize again and have them join the Horde. For the Gurubashi tribe, The player Travels to stranglethorn vale and Finds an exiled shaman who spoke out against The Prophet Zul. Aiding the Shaman, the player makes them the new leader of the Gurubashi, unlocking the Dire Troll customization. The Drakari tribe quests would involve finding the remnants of the Drakari that aren't undead, reviving Frost King Malak (from the thone of thunder raid), and freeing the Zul'Drak from the undead. Resulting in some more customization options. Finaly, in the Zone where Aerie Peak is(I forgotten the name) the local troll tribe sends word the the ritual that revived Malak is being used to revive Zul'Jin. The player faces off against Zul'Jin in Zul'Aman, but just before he is killed Bwonsamdi intervenes and tells the player to spare his life, for he has a plan for old Zul'Jin. This unlocks another customization option. And with this the Tribes of old are unified under the banner of the Horde and the player gets their heritage armor set. Opinions? Edit: this would take place in the time gap between SL and Dragonflight.
