Onyxia. She dies way too often.

I have to agree. Even a fight with Arthas was epic and felt like "this is the end of a legend" although even Blizz once said that they could've done it better. Still, it is the best story of WoW. 2nd one is an "tragic hero Illidan" story
Also, another most tragic and epic death is death of Gamon. He died soooo many times

Broxigar for sure.
But then Dranosh Saurfang was very tragic. He was young and aspiring to follow in his fathers footsteps, and gave some hope. He is then killed by the lord of undeath, his soul ripped from his body, his body taken and bound to the will of the lich king, and then having to die in this state and have his father carry his sons corpse to be buried.
The fact we also know that when dammed with undeath, there is little chance of people finding redemption in the afterlife, leaves Dranosh's fate very dark.
Anveena's death is very tragic, I agree. Especially since... honestly, forget all other lore and context, how can you not watch the little attunement cinematic from MGT and not think "rescue the damsel in distress, kill the bad guy, save the world"?
Taretha Foxton is also pretty tragic. Terenas, IMO, surprised haven't seen that mentioned.
As for heroic... Sylvanas and almost any of the notables from the scourging of Quel'thalas (Anasterien, Thalorien). Rhonin, give him his due.
I actually did mention Terenas but I am more surprised no one has mentioned Doomhammer or Magni
I have to go with Broxigar, he was noble and fearless.
Arthas. From righteous paladin fighting for his people to the dark lord of the dead. The progression over time of his corruption built up his uberness as a baddie and it made him that much more epic as a hero and villain. Obvious that a lot of time and effort went into his storyline and that's why WOTLK was, is, and will always be my favorite expansion.
Broxigar Heroic Horde
Rhonin Heroic Ally
Taretha Foxton's Tragic Ally
Durotan Tragic Horde
Krasus - Nutural Both heroic and tragic in my eyes
Arthus is very boring and repeated story over many lores. I find it very bland and i've always despised the entire story and lore following him.
Gromm Hellscream, Uther Lightbringer's. both have to have an honorable mention here as well.
/Bow to you all. /die to that bitch that killed off Rhonin and Krasus 2 of the best chars ever
1rst place: Thareta Foston
2nd Place: Avenna
3rth place: Cairne Bloodhoof
4rth place: Sylvanas Windrunner
5th place: Krasus
Anveena's death will always be a very affecting one, for me, largely due to her story, but also because of her voice actress-- the same woman who voiced the character of Colette in Tales of Symphonia, one of my all-time favorite games. Hearing Colette's voice tied to another story of self-sacrifice made Anveena's death especially emotional.
We have faced trials and danger, threats to our world and our way of life. And yet, we persevere. We are the Horde. We will not let anything break our spirits!"
Goddamnit, Bolvar!
"Tell them only that the Lich King is dead, and that World of Warcraft died with him."
Arthas for me, because of
He sounded like he was in a big pain and he finally relieved from his torments.Father... Is this over?...
And also I was thinking "Is this really over? We have killed the most dangerous villain..."
