I'm also glad that Wrathion was removed from Highmountain; it didn't make sense for him to be fixated on the Legion's return in MoP but then when the Legion actually arrives he gets all preoccupied with the future of his Flight when it would be completely futile if the Legion was to destroy Azeroth.

It's clear that Blizzard wanted to remove his “only un-corrupt Black Dragon in existence” status, either with Ebyssian or with the eggs. They're probably going somewhere with this.

What they also did is they gave to someone else one of Wrathion's particularities which was to receive visions from Azeroth. He'd known about the Legion's coming before anyone else through those, but now Magni gets them too. Magni is the messenger now.

So what's left that defines Wrathion? He is at fault for having been part of the plan to release Garrosh and so he still has that to answer to... He ate Lei Shen's heart “filled with Titan magic” and had a vision about “[rebuilding] the final Titan” which still needs explaining... He was friends with Anduin who is now King and Wrathion did say that they may perhaps face the enemy together “as brothers”... I think there are still many places where he could fit into the story and contribute, without having him simply becoming a raid boss. Part of what made him interesting is that he was in the grey area between good and bad. Although his motivations seemed genuine, his methods were dubious and he couldn't be trusted. This ambiguity is something I hope he'll keep, whatever they decide to do with him.

I’m surprised no one has really talked about this, but with this highmountain questline, I just realised something.

Wrathion is now completely and utterly pointless as a character.

He was created to be a pure, non-corrupt black dragon right? That’s like the only reason he even came into the plot during cataclysm. (and what an expansion to be introduced into the canon, you poor, poor bastard)

But Ebonhorn was introduced during the Highmountain quests and was discovered to be non-corrupt and has been around far longer than Wrathion has.

… So what’s the point in wrathion’s existence in the narrative now?

Why did Ebonhorn need to exist? Why did they scrap the concept of Wrathion being in Highmountain for … the exact same character concept? … Even though what makes Wrathion stand out is that he is the ONLY NON-CORRUPT BLACK DRAGON.

… I…

I don’t even LIKE wrathion and this annoys me! WHY DID THEY SCRAP WRATHION’S APPEARANCE IN THIS EXPANSION TO SHIT ON HIS INTRODUCTION TO THE FRANCHISE?

Rise of the High King

I was thinking of Varian’s funeral, and what that moment meant not only as the closing chapter on Varian’s story, but as the begging of Anduin as the High King of the Alliance. I was thinking of the predicament Anduin would be in when facing the Legion, Cooperation or Vengeance.
