Sylvanas Windrunner may be returning to WoW, and it could be soon

So I’m a type of World of Warcraft gamers who stays a staunch Sylvanas Windrunner apologist. The Ranger Normal turned Banshee Queen stays one in all my favourite videogame characters up to now – even when the MMORPGs newest expansions did her a little soiled. It seems, nonetheless, that she could also be making yet one more look within the ongoing WoW saga, if a brand new datamined spell is something to go by.

Final we noticed The Darkish Girl she had been forged down into the depths of The Maw, serving her penance for the chaos she brought about not simply throughout Shadowlands, however in the course of the notorious burning of Teldrassil that closes out Battle for Azeroth. She’s accompanied by former bastion of the Alliance, Anduin Wrynn, who selected to comply with her into The Maw following his corruption at The Jailer’s palms.

Their present whereabouts stays unknown, but it surely’s secure to say Shadowlands’ complicated plotline and, nicely, the actual fact she dedicated literal genocide on The Jailer’s behalf, has left Sylvanas Windrunner at backside of the ‘lovable WoW character’ tier listing.

However, as with all issues Sylvanas, it appears as if she might return to the fray sooner somewhat than later. The specialists at Wowhead have datamined a brand new spell that’s merely known as ‘Sylvanas,’ set to launch alongside WoW Dragonflight patch 10.1.7. It at present simply has the work-in-progress cog icon and no description.

This doesn’t really feel totally coincidental, because the all-new Forsaken Heritage Armor can even launch with 10.1.7 – one thing my Shadowlands undead ice mage shall be revived for as a result of simply have a look at that again piece. Given Sylvanas’ intrinsic hyperlink to the Forsaken, it could make a whole lot of sense for her to be concerned of their Heritage Armor quest.

Does that imply one other journey to The Maw? I’ll be trustworthy, I hope not. I’ve had fairly sufficient of the browns and greens of Zovaal’s hellish realm. As an alternative, I’d somewhat see a return to the Tirisfal Glades – one in all my all-time favourite zones that I miss exploring. Both method, it appears like we might lastly see her again in Azeroth – in any case, given one in all WoW 10.1.7’s new bosses looks like it has walked straight out of Fortnite, something is feasible today.

Should you, like me, are far too excited a couple of potential return for The Banshee Queen, then be sure to take a look at our listing of the most effective WoW addons earlier than you dive again into to Azeroth. We even have a WoW Dragonflight tier list which is ideal for serving to select your class and spec – particularly when you’re restarting as Forsaken to nab that armor.
