This means, the soonest potential raid patch for orgrimmar will be 5.4
Now this is not true. The very reason the sunreavers are in the Thunder Island is precisely because they plan to rebel against garrosh.
Here is a small dialog bit from Lor'themar from the datamined 5.2 soundfiles: [I]We are here to fight the Thunder King. Justice demands it, and Hellscream is too preoccupied at Domination Point to pay attention to it. [B][U]To beat him[/U][/B], we must seek out the source of his greatest power--we must claim it for ourselves as [B][U]leverage against our Warchief[/U][/B].
[B][U][COLOR="#FF0000"]In the event of an uprising, it is good to be prepared.[/COLOR][/U][/B][/I]
As you can see, he still hates garrosh 100% (Can't say I blame him) If anything, its the forsaken that have been largely absent this time around. Asides from individual NPCs, you only ever see a bulk of forsaken forces in the alliance intro to pandaria, on twinspire keep. Other than that, the only other major forsaken ever seen in the game is Shademaster Kyrin. You see plenty of orcs in the jade forest and domination point, you see plenty of blood elves in 5.1, you also see plenty of tauren pallys, and 5.1 also brings us plenty of goblins. But the trolls and forsaken have taken more of a backseat.
Trolls are understandable since they're in lockdown after what happens in the echo isles, but why aren't the forsaken involved at all?
