Why does the world tree always blow up?

[Phoonix]

Takakenji, if you would have read all my post you should have seen that all the things you said already had been said by me. so why saying it again?

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

source plox.

Well looks like the information was correct since the post says it's straight from a Warcraft Role Playing book.

 

[Darkness-4ever]

Which info? The ages on this forum and the one taka provided are different.

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

Oh, they have different numbers. Well one of them must have false information then.

 

[takakenji]

n my time on the forrums, I see alot of threads asking for relative life ages of races. Well the Warcraft Role Playing book has all your answeres. The following information is taken directly from pages 173 and 174 of World of Warcraft the Roleplaying game

the source was taken from a direct source.

aka, valid.

 

[Phoonix]

why are we discussing sources? get on the topic, the source of something does not mater at this point. we were discussing the world trees not damn sources.

 

[jorj_31392]

why are you even arguing about source validity? because the original world tree is destroyed, the NE's lost their immortality. that's it..

so let me get this straight.. the only thing the new world tree does is protection from diseases for the night elves?

 

[Phoonix]

where did you get that idea? teldrassil is just a big tree, a display of the night elfs connection to nature and location of the city darnassus nothing more.

 

[jorj_31392]

ahaha sorry.. i thought that it continued the last world tree's duties.. so now its nothing more but a traditional figure and a city-carrier.. good enough for me.. all hail the great world tree!!

 

[The World Is Flat]

and anyway, protection from diseses would be immortality, because the reason we die is disease (in its many unsuspectiong forms). but Phoon is again, right.

 

[takakenji]

no, teldrassil is powerless to the NE.

it was corrupted.

aka, it's just a bigass tree, it does NOTHING for the NE but they are still trying to restore/purify it.

 

[Reaper2008]

I'd just turn it into tables and chairs

I'd like to see a demon destroy or corrupt 1000000 things made out of it around the world.

Plus, it'd make a nice advertisement: "The World Tree, right at home" lol.

they would most likely turn into ancients and walk away

 

[takakenji]

the ancient of tables

you do it again oO, i already said that. are you going to mimic my every post?

 

[takakenji]

lol i havn't been reading every single post since there are a lot

 

[Phoonix]

but you can read the posts after your last, i ALWAYS do that before i post anything. like that you prevent missing something important.

 

[takakenji]

too lazy

 

[JimBob]

Who cares about a stinkin tree and a bunch of purple elves? The Orcs are going to kill them all anyway and use their stupid, big tree as a source of lumber to build their first Empire in the world of Azeroth. At least thats what I would do if I was Thrall. LONG LIVE THE HORDE!!!!

 

[Just_Spectating]

the tree contains unlimited lumber : thats why its so powerful

 

[Phoonix]

OK it does NOT contain unlimited lumber. and a normal world tree isn't powerful at all. it only becomes powerful when it receives the blessing. witch only nordrassil got and nordrassil is now gone kaboom dead.

 

[The World Is Flat]

so its jsut a big fatass tree with a crapload of wood? do any of you realize how difficult it would be to CHOP down the world tree? hell its smallest branches are about the size of a great seqouia (three highway lanes) so you be twigging. rofl this thread is phail nao.

nordrassil is actually fairly small in WoW

teldrassil is like... wow

it literally covered the whole island it was grown on

 

[Phoonix]

please do not take WoW as a reference.

 

[takakenji]

please do not take WoW as a reference.

WoW = lore, as much as we all hate it.

 

[Phoonix]

NO. WoW = messed up lore. the lore exists. and aside from the REAL lore WoW lore exists. so pleas DO NOT compare them. that is one of the things i cannot stand.

 

[takakenji]

blizzards comics = lore, and those comics are based from WoW.

wow = lore.

we don't like it, but blizzard makes it so we can't do shit.

 

[Darkness-4ever]

So in so-called REAL lore as opposed to WoW lore, Illidan, Kael'thas and Lady Vash never died? THATS AWESOME

no, they did die, i'm sorry.

 

[Mulgrim]

and arthas will soon join "Killed by the Adventurous"

 

[Darkness-4ever]

It's too bad, now that I think about it, the only ones that received a respectable death in warcraft iii - wow lore are Cenarius (by grom), Tichondrius (by Illidan), Mannoroth (by Grom again), and Grom (don't feel bad, you killed two god-like beings), whereas Illidan and gang, as well as Arthas end up being killed by *ragtag group of people who want PvE gear*

 

[NhazUl]

Well... This was made so for the sake of balance. So that the players are more active than the lore characters who are regarded as NPC-s. I bet they'll say "Illidan was killed by Maiev, Akama and a group of mercenaries", "Arthas was defeated by Jaina, Sylvanas and soldiers of the Alliance and Horde" etc.

 

[jorj_31392]

blizzard just twisted the truth for WOW.. i know a lot of us are frustrated of the lore conflicts (im am for sure) but guys, lets not cry over spilled milk guys, there is nothing we can do about the lore issue.. and lets get our asses back on topic..

 

[Miss_Foxy]

Or... They could make it like a giant Onion (Or that giant vegetable in a story, was it a tulip?), which has underground stems

 

[Darkness-4ever]

Or they could stop watering the damn thing with nitro-glycerin...

 

[ACdestinydream]

heh, maybe warcraft lore should not even start then the tree will never blow up and stroy ends and u dont create such a thread and THW will cease to exist.
(just joking)
actually, u should as blizz bout this. they will giv u the most accurate ans ever.
