I can imagine powerful beings are able to take the souls they want before they head through the soul stream if they have the power to do so. A few souls every now and again won’t cause the Arbiter to hunt you down or anything.
I think, I’m guessing all this lol.
Meaning everyone can take it’s role
Arbiter overhyped
Meaning I think she’s basically a computer who doesn’t download souls fast enough before someone else can take them.
Look like even Shadowlands folks know what happens when you let Hordies lead.

Probs she got windows update, that’s what broke SL

Doubt it…
Devos pointed out that the Maw was already not doing its job… Containment.
She saw that the sword that killed Uther was made in the Forge of Domination, which is in Torghast… Inside the Maw.
That meant that the Maw was not in fact inescapable. As someone must have gotten that sword out of there.
So it was already on the fritz by the time Uther threw Arthas into the Maw.
I think the thing about Uther throwing Arthas into the Maw will tie into a questline or plotline about how Uther let vengeance consume him, and that he must atone for it somehow.
Not that tossing Arthas into the Maw broke death somehow.
I think the Jailer with the aid of Sylvanas ensured that all souls were funneled straight into the Maw, which ties into her goal of killing as many people as possible.
it seems more like by passing the system breaks the whole system and before devos and uther no one had tried it
you want me to spoil it for you?
Unless you want to become the most unpopular poster on the forum i suggest you keep any spoilers to your self 
you are going to !!! CENSORED Shadowlands.
now it’s up to you t o find the hidden part.
If it is questionable to mercy kill people who would die from toxins and turn into monsters.
Stratholme had been set up as 4D chess. Arthas was damned if he did and damned if he did not.

People saying Arthas was not evil before Frostmourne… I wonder what to call it when you slay your own people and sink your own father’s ships in already dangerous lands for the sake of a childish tantrum.
What they did to arthas wasn’t justice, it was an act of vengence.
Would he go to the maw because of his action? Prolly.
Should’ve uther judged where arhas soul belong? Prolly no.
There is an Arbiter for a reason

What could be the perspective of defending the death of friendly soldiers who traversed to Northrend just to bring Arthas back according to orders?
Not to mention Arthas later blamed mercenaries on the sinkings.
Uh. Isn’t a good chunk of the Bastion storyline precisely about that…?
You are underestimating how bad the good intentions can go.
It is a problem IRL too. The people who believe that bad things are justified because it will turn out good at the end.
This is what separates guys like Arthas and Kaelthas from Guldan.
Arthas sin was pride (in his judgement) and we know where pride gets people in the shadowlands. The second worst place.
I’m not sure how much the good intention matters when Arthas got them killed only because he didn’t want to go back and wanted to continue looking for Frostmourne. Muradin was constantly at his side, begging him not to do any of these things. But he was much far gone even before he got the blade.
Sure, he wanted to get Mal’Ganis killed. But even in the moment Arthas was headed to grab the blade from its icy cache, he ignored Muradin, who was lying against a wall near-dead and bleeding. He let himself be enticed by the whispers.
Pride is one thing. Throwing aside everything, like family and friends, for the sake of power and revenge another.
Well I still think this is how (excessive) pride works.
And in retrospective, Illidan did a lot worse before he returned as batman

He is fated to go to the Twisting Nether when he dies, so we will never know if he’d have ended up in the Maw too.
