Now now, no reason to hide your feelings for her. Remember, you can detest someone but not be on the constant warpath to kill them.
Also to keep in mind is that the forsaken are in a bit of a pickle when it comes to death. The only way to replenish their numbers is to use val'kyr to raise them up. This presents a problem with the siege in the sense that she cannot raise horde (even kor'kron) lest she makes an enemy out of her allies. She cannot raise alliance members either or she would ruin the fairy weak truce between the two factions. Really her best bet is to let everyone else have at it, provide resources (non-troops) and let the others have the glory in killing Garrosh.
To everyone saying Sylvanas had no reason to be in Pandaria - what reason did Lor'themar have? And do you know how that reason came to be? Blizzard invented something for him to do.
That was a rhetorical question. Pandaria was covered in strange ruins and magic artifacts because Blizzard wrote it that way. I'm also sure Pandaria was covered with corpses. And if that wasn't reason enough, Blizzard can make up something to give Sylvanas a reason to do something. The more likely explanation I think is, that there were so many actors on Pandaria already.
for being a rebellion agianst Garrosh in which every other Horde faction leader atleast had a story when they didnt get ingame time (i mean gallywix here).
sylvanas has been strangely quite, except for 1 undead rogue that was part of the orginal team that went too pandaria, we havent encountered any forsaken that was part of this expansion (well i admit there was the rare priest in krasang wilds, but no lore on her).
Sylvanas appears in SoO.
After Silverpine/ Gilneas the Forsaken and Sylvanas already have reason to hate Garrosh; it would've been poor use of resources to spend time giving the Forsaken further motives to rebel when some races like the Blood Elves needed to be fleshed out and given a reason to oppose Garrosh.
I would've liked to see the Forsaken take an interest in the Mogu technique of living through stone bodies, flesh-shaping and the Thunder Forge though. It could've been an opportunity for them to pursue a less controversial means of self-preservation/ reproduction/ cure for undeath than the Val'kyrs.
Mekkatorque'll appear in SoO, actually inside Orgrimmar with some Gnomish forces by the sound of it.
I get what you mean though, the last real update he got was the reclaiming of Gnomeregan, which ended up unresolved and having no impact at all outside of western Dun Morogh.
I bet most players don't even know the name of the Draenei leader (or his signifigance, especially in relation to a few high profile baddies)
I can't stand her. I hope we won't see her for three expansions at least.
You can pick any character and call it lazy because they get no additional story.
Does not make it true.
Bahahaha, Sylvanas needs more screentime.
Baha..hahahahhaahhaahah!
Velen being a pure good character when they are trying to (and failing, really) to write a grey story means that he's probably going to get left on the bench.
Sylvanas is an opposite character, at this point, to Velen. And that probably makes her an equally bad tool.
The problem is that they've built up Varian so much Alliance side, and how he does no wrong, that he's turned into a super-white character, and that they've made Garrosh (and the Orcs, since all of them seem to follow him) as super-evil characters.
But seriously, has anyone noticed that ever single Orc introduced since WOTLK is going to die in Orgrimmar or already has? Agmar is MIA (presumed dead since Wyrmbane appears on the Pincer during Forsaken questing), Zaela is dying in SoO, Nazgrim is dying in SoO, Eitrigg is apparently dying in SoO (though he wasn't introduced in WOTLK). I wouldn't be surprised if Saurfang bites it at some point or another during the Garrosh fight.
Lor'Themar is clearly with her on the beach in SoO

I see some people saying she is in SoO. I'll be happy with that. I thought she was just entirely not present. She doesn't need to be a spotlight character but I felt her history with Garrosh meant that she should have been involved somehow with this story. Having her along on this raid makes it feel ok to me.
