Depends largely on how you spin it. In the comic you have people using magic and while I've spoken at length in other topics how using magic isn't against the rules but in not doing so wrecks it as an orcish tradition since it turns it the shaman from spiritual representative to the most powerful possible participant, it is an easy patch to apply it to the other races. The tauren have to be hardy to make it out and Cairne had no issue using it against Garrosh, and the trolls have a survival of the fittest thing going for themselves. I mean, the way the Zandalari keep the subject tribes in line is going into their district and killing some of them just to show them who's boss. It is brutal, but that's the name of the game.
Speak for yourself, that was the one time the Nightborne went past being a more well executed version of the blood elf TBC story and showed a bit of how a society that's been decadent for 10k years where egos constantly flare would have no issue using force to sort things. Gave me a bit of a DA:O dwarf vibe, which sadly didn't come up again.You mean the point in the campaign that was the most jarringly out of place? Highly sophisticated ancient beings resorting to brute combat? It was so alien to the rest of the setting that it wrecked the questline.
