what is the stupidest thing to have ever happened in wow's lore

[sillag]

imo its definitely the bronze dragonflight, guardians of the true timeline whose job it is to eliminate incorrect timelines and prevent alterations to the main timeline, deciding to help the horde recruit an army of alternate orcs from an alternate timeline that shouldn't exist so that they can help fight in a war between mortals that the bronze dragons have absolutely no interest or stake in. because uhhh well we might tell u later

this is literally the most retarded thing blizzard has ever written and everyone involved in it should be ashamed of themselves.

I think, at least in the short term, the Bronze Dragonflight and Anachronos were looking to fix a mistake that one of their own (Kairozdormu) made when he sided with Garrosh and misused the Bronzes' power as well as the Vision of Time to create/solidify a timeway that should never have been. Essentially Garrosh and Kairoz condemned AU Draenor to the slow death of all alternate timelines, ensuring that the all denizens of that world would eventually die out. At least by helping empower the Vision they ensure some of the AU Orcs can escape the destruction of AU Draenor - and given the state of Yrel and her militant Draenei fanatics they don't really want to extend a bridge to them.

And of course with the Bronze flight there is always some future unknown they're hedging their bets on, which won't be revealed to us unless it becomes relevant later on.

Void elves being a thing.

[Dug]

Magni turning into diamond and also the whole "speaker" stuff

[Codah]

Panda DKs.

[alexchaos]

Everything after MoP..

[DaHomieG]

The title of Warchief going to someone who isn't an orc.

The Horde's leadership has been a shitshow after Garrosh.

On topic, my vote goes to either Med'an or Lucan Foxblood, full stop.

[Steelangel]

Med'an

Heck, even Chronicles puts Med'an on page 404, because he is so shitty that even the writing team that brought you Illidan's encounter with Xe'ra was embarrassed.

All in the hope that Med'an graduates from pg. 404 to pg. 410 soon.

Kael'thas' story in TBC. My favourite W3 character turned into.. this...

TBC will forever be worst expansion for me. Such horrible lore decisions.

[Kyphael]

Void Elves.

[StationaryHawk]

Knaak had a habit of creating characters and scenarios that Blizzard did their best to distance themselves from. Rhonin and his army of raptors. The Sunwell having not only survived, but been turned into a human woman. The whole of the novel Stormrage.

It's hard to beat Med'an, however.

[Candy Cough]

Villain batting the horde yet again when there were plenty of justification for the war. Literally all they had to do was to incorporate a good war into the game since people never read ebooks

[Maljinwo]

>Void Elves
>Sylvanas getting to be Warchief
>Knaak
>Med'an

[Tanaria]

Night Elf Mages.

[Lyssander]

There must always be a Lich King!

[ravenmoon]

WoW lore itself is one big stupid, but i've enjoyed it loads to, not my proudest admission.

You mean get rid of their official retcon plot device? And gateway to visit the past as new zones?

If magic is possible, how is the bronze flight anymore retarded than magically waving your hands and food appears? or channelling void (what is that anyway?) or light?

Night Elf Mages.

Are you Obelisk Kai's less articulate brother now with a vendetta against night elven highborne lore? Night elves have always had mages, do you want to delete all the night elf lore and the race just so the possibilty of night elves having great arcane abilities doens't threaten your sense of horde elf ownership? Really?

[Venziir]

Probably the whole WoD timey-wimey thing.

[Tyrannica]

The conclusion of the war campaign in BfA by far...
