Why the Sethrak should join the Horde

Community General Discussion

No worries, but to be brutally honest I’ve had the same opinion of “Allied races” as I had the first time I saw them.

They should have been customizations for existing races but instead were a cheap gimmick to get people to either splurge cash on the race transfer or to buy BfA.

I recall having this discussion with you before and I became rude and antagonistic for which I apologise.

That’s… Adorable.

But not in the way you think or hope.

Oh irony, thy bite is as sharp as a Sethrakk’s fang and only half as venomous.

The Horde? Mein Geck, there is no thing such as Horde when the Sethrak joins. Either it is the playable all-race villain faction, or the merged Alliance/Horde faction.

He is very active in the US forums. Also had a spicy opinion that shadowlanda was great

Arent the dragon abominations enough for some time? Part of the reasons I used to pick wow over other mmorpgs was that wow characters looked like actual human figures. Nowadays the only thing wow is missing are cat girls. Every other weird type of class representation is there already and Im afraid what will this woke NA mob come up with next.

Yeh, but he got banned from USA a few weeks ago, so couldn’t post on those forums, so gave us the pleasure of his company :).

That’s a strange opinion for him, especially since Shadowlands was such a Jaina and Friends expansion.

Taste is subjective. Shadowlands was nostalgia bait. And I liked to see so many old faces.

Thanks Soul, I was so fried chasing some levels to capitalise on the 50% winds buff. It stated it ended at 23:59 but I forgot it’s EU time :joy:

Back on track, I see that you are part of that camp. Regarding Allied races being customisations.

I can see why people think like that to be honest and in some ways I do agree? The only issue is you lose flavour of the race by not having their own racials, mount , Heritage armour etc. I love all those little spice sprinklings from the allied races.

However, to go a bit deeper, I’d really love to see a whole revamped character selection screen. Where the two become merged? So what I mean by this is they seem like a customisation option, to get rid of clutter but it automatically changes and updates the racials etc. I’m sure there are other games that do this

Like if we take ‘elf’ as the race, a submenu appears with all the available elf variants
Etc etc etc

Thanks for the apology, Incredibly rare to witness on these forums. I thoroughly enjoy reading many of your posts and agree with a lot of them also. I sincerely am sorry If I was a bit firm or hard towards you in the venthyr thread. You probably copped a bit of unfair frustration from me that had been accumulated from various posters.

“Should” and “Would” are 2 different arguments so I’ll say straight up that I don’t ever see it actually happening.

There’s a handful of reasons they should have joined the Horde though:

  • The Alliance attacked Vol’dun, including the Vulpera settlements, to whom the Sethrak are allied with.
  • The Sethrak allowed the Alliance to park in their backyard in the early stages of the war, but this was before the Horde ended the Faithless and the Sethrak allied with the Vulpera, who are Horde.
  • Sethraliss attended Talanji’s corronation, and there are various Sethrak NPCs populating Zuldazar, a Horde city.
  • The Sethrak are sharing Horde territory and the Troll pantheon (This isn’t a strong argument though, as the Night Elves and Tauren have a similar relationship)

It really should have been them instead of Vulpera back in 8.3, since the Sethrak are actually suited to war and have reason to distrust the Alliance. They have a strong leader, a religous identity and would have been the most unique race in the game by far.

Without more story exposition and a reason to re-introduce Sethrak, this will never happen. We pretty much missed our chance in BFA for it to make sense

They were designed to be playable actually. I am miffed that nothing came from it. With them on our side Vol’dun would belong to the Horde.

32

You saw their heads and their throat features and genuinely thought they where going to be playable characters?

You just hate Vulpera and have ran out of arguements to hate on. So you use this thread to ask for another

‘‘Why Sethreak and not Vulpera’’ Thread.

Seriously… Say what you want about alliance players… But at least all they cried about where High elves and for good reason.

Meanwhile we have you guys loosing your mental sanity over
Tuskar
murlocs
ogers.
Saberon.
Sethrak.

And while crying for these things you still at the same time call the Alliance. The cry babies.

Touch some much needed grass.

Vulpera suck. That is the facts. We want Sethrak and nothing else.

Allot of people want Sethrak. Not so sure the ‘‘We’’ your talking about would support your thread just to make a 92347129847billionth thread. On how much people hate Vulpera though.

Try something new. Instead of attacking the easiest target. Weakling.

No
We are not
You, maybe
Maybe others
But there isn’t any “we”
