In continuation of my topic about Sveta, I decided to create a theme with all the silly myths about Laura Warcraft, which for some reason are very common among the community and which constantly appear in various discussions.
1.Light is God. Reviewed here https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...ght-is-not-God
2.We fought only with the avatars of the Old Gods. One of the oldest and most stupid myths. People are too accustomed to think about the great power of the Old Gods and consider it inconceivable that the players defeated them. But the thing is that these were Old Gods weakened by their imprisonment and even after liberation they were very weak. The Chronicles explicitly states that Ktun was very weak after his release and that if he regains full strength, no army can stop him. One of the main arguments of this myth is the size of the Old Gods, because they are too small in the game. Well, you have to remember that we saw the Old Gods the size of a planet, so most likely the size of the Old God is related to his strength. The weaker the Old God, the less he is.
3.Galakrond is stronger than Aspects. Also a pretty old myth. Apparently, it’s too difficult for people to read the Dawn of the Aspects or at least open Wowpedia and read that the Aspects fought with Galakrond when they were proto-dragons. That was BEFORE they became Aspects. Also a variation of this stupid myth is the claims of Arthas and the Scourge fans that if Arthas could resurrect Galakrond, he would easily defeat the Aspects or Deathwing. No. This is nonsense. Galakrond, dead or alive, has no chance against any of the Aspects, especially against all at once.
4. Aspects received power from the Keepers. Another nonsense from people who can not open the Chronicles. The Keepers only acted as guides for the Titans, they transferred precisely the power of the Titans, and not their own. In the Chronicles it is written that
Ra CHANNELED the powers of Aman'thul
Freya CALLED Eonar
Freya BESEECHED Eonar
Loken CALLED Norgannon
Archaedas ASKED Khaz'goroth
5. The power of Arthas. One of my most hated myths. Many people for some reason are sure that Arthas is some kind of god of death and he is incredibly powerful, because he killed us. Firstly, Arthas did not play with us in battle, he fought with all his fury (Chronicles) and it was a long and difficult fight. Secondly, the same Illidan in the Black Temple quite easily defeated the heroes and Akama, stunned them and prepared to kill them, but Maiev saved them. Thirdly, our help against Arthas was not as steep as against the rest of the bosses. For example, to defeat Ki'lJaeden, who didn’t even come to the full, needed the help of blue dragons and the avatar of the Sunwell, and she could only stun him for a while, sacrificing her life. Well, do not forget that 1 to 1 Arthas is weaker than Lei Shen, as mentioned on Twitter.
6. The Chronicles are not canon. A rather new myth, but no less stupid. In one of their responses, Blizzard called the Chronicles the opinion of the Titans. But after they were asked whether this means that the Chronicles is not a canon, they answered that the Chronicles are still canon, and their answer meant that not all information was disclosed in the Chronicles and therefore there is so little information about the Black Empire and the Shadowlands, but the information that already known is still canon.
7.Azshara was equal in power to Archimonde at the time of Wota. Stupid myth that went from misquoted from Wowpedia. The book itself said that only Archimonde and Sargeras were stronger than Azshara. It was never said that she was equal to Archimonde.
8.Undead are immune to the effects of the Void. Many people think that because the Scourge was immune to the whispers of the Old Gods, all undead have such immunity. No. The Scourge did not hear Yogg-Saron because the Lich King's voice was louder than the whisper of Yogg-Saron. however, do not forget that it was Yogg-Saron, far from its full strength. In one of the Horde quests, there is a Forsaken who complains of a dark whisper, and in the book Storm Fury, the Forsaken and Sylvanas personally were exposed to the Nightmare.
9.The Void is afraid of Death/Sylvanas. Another relatively new myth that emerged from the comic strip about Sylvanas. In this comic strip, Nether creatures shouted for Alleria to kill Sylvanas because she serves a true enemy. But many forget that everything looked as if the Void distorted Alleria's own thoughts. For example, the creatures claimed that Silvermoon's throne belongs to Alleria, but this does not mean that it is true. I mean, the Void wasn’t particularly worried about the endless army of demons with fallen Titan, but Sylvanas? Oh yes, it scares all Void creatures.
10. All undead go into the Maw. The stupid myth that Sylvanas fans came up with based on Edge of Night. It’s easier for them to think that all undead go into the Maw after death than to admit that Sylvanas is so bad that she deserves to be in the Maw.
11. Fel is more powerfull than Arcane. A fairly common myth. For some reason, many people believe that fel magic is much stronger than the arcane and the average warlock is much more powerful than the average mage. But this is only partially true. Fel is indeed better suited for destruction. But that does not make it more powerfull. The arcane is more flexible and practical. For example, the arcane allows you to create pocket universes and it is the arcane that allows you to manipulate time. So in the battle of an experienced warlock and a mage, a warlock, of course, can do more harm, but a mage can simply freeze him in time. And something else. Yes, the Pantheon was destroyed because of their weakness for fel. But it works both ways. Demon hunters can subdue their inner demons with the help of arcane tattoos and Khadgar can dispel fel by the power of Arcane. The Pantheon also lost because they fought against Sargeras. Sargeras even after the destruction of Mardum was a Titan. He was not vulnerable to the arcane and therefore the Titans could not damage him as much as he could damage them.
So, maybe I forgot something, so if you know any other myths, please write.
