Why doesnt Jaina just solo Orgrimmar

[Deleted]

Why does she not? because of gameplay reasons(had it been warcraft 4 it would probaly happen) But since it is that we should feel powerful and the ones who take down Garrosh. Having someone else step in ruins that. So really is all because " We" the heroes will get to kill him, so we fuck over everything who have a reason to be angry at him. Lich king all over agian.

But to all those who say she can't. She has the focus Iris, and she collected some Powerfull items of the isle of thunder. But just with the focus Iris in Tides of War, she was about to annilate ogrimmar. So she do have the power to do so, but gameplay > lore and great story( for we all know in the end it was all the fault of the old gods -_-

I think lorewise that Jaina isn't capable of dealing Orgrimmar on her own. In the game it might look like a weak city for a powerful mage like Jaina, but lorewise Orgrimmar is much much stronger. The many Dark Shamans of Garrosh and all other Kor'kron warriors might be too strong and overwhelming for her. And then there is Garrosh on the end, whch would be a really tough fight for her.

But she would not have to get anywhere near the city, As i said, and many others have said. She has the Focus Iris, with it, if she was not talked down, she would have destroyed ogrimmar, she still has it. She could stand anywhere near the ocean and Float ogrimmar( In tides of war, she summons thousens of water elements, and bind them togetter to one big wave of IWillKillYouFuckers. No she can not do it without the Focus Iris, but with it(and she has it) she is able to

cause garrosh would live, find her and destroy her face.

actually, the orcs would live because N'zoth would just tell them "ill save u if you want meh old god powers" then Azshara would rape us because we would have more naga to fight.

They dont want to use Iris ever again, they think its too dangerous for world stability.

gotta agree with this. It really just comes down to blizzard caring more about gameplay than story, there would be no raid for players if Jaina handled things on her own. They have to accommodate the playerbase. it actually shocked me how much people complain about NPC involvement, almost as if they get offended when there's actual characters/dialogue/story in this game. Everyone just wants their weekly raid boss kills and loot, they have to make it revolve around that mentality

I also think that Mages in WoW simply aren't THAT strong as people might think after watching some DBZ
In the end there is always some kind of balance to the power of the characters... Warrior-Heroes are as strong as Mage-Heroes or Druid-Heroes or Archer-Heroes etc...
And like a Paladin like Tirion cant just run through Orgrimmar and solo the Korkron, Jaina as a Mage cant do it either.

Even if she tryed to destroy OG with a big Kamehameha, Garrosh would just block the beam because he is just as strong or stronger and he doesnt have to be a mage to do these things. Or the Dark Shamans could block it too probably. In the end even if she could destroy the city Garrosh would be save underground.

And then we find all the washed up corpses of the Theramore survivors, their children, and all the other innocent people who drowned because they were tied to various objects.

Because Thrall and Kalecgos talked her out of it and made her realize that she'd be no better than Garrosh if she did something like that. Remember, she almost went through with soloing Orgrimmar in Tides of War. She stopped because she realized (with some help from Thrall/Kalec) that she'd be murdering innocents in the process.

Now that would be a creative way to decide the new warchief. Let every horde player cast a vote once per account. :P

Players can't QQ then if they get a warchief that no one likes.

Sorry but f**k that. I don't want world of warcraft becoming world of blood elves.

[DaHomieG]

I hope we get to kill her in 5.5

I don't think she's capable of doing that anymore as she's probably not powerful enough. Don't forget that you have someone infused with the power of an old God, on top of already being a powerful warrior to begin with - Garrosh.

That guy is no longer just a regular Orc.
