People wondering here why we attacked Illidan back then. Answer is easy, we attacked him for the most glorious and selfless Reason ever. To get the Purple Stuff he gathered.
One of the reasons I started playing WoW was Illidan. During TBC my friends who played WoW were talking about killing Illidan in a raid, and I was like "Why would you kill him? He's a misunderstood guy who just wants the best for Tyrande." And they were like "No Illidan is the bad guy here. He should die." I was upset Blizzard was killing Illidan, my favorite character in Warcraft 3, so I started looking up WoW lore because I wanted to know why they were doing that. That got me interested in WoW. And now they're bringing Illidan back? I knew Illidan was the good guy. I knew it!
One of the weird things about the recent lore addition is that it seems so much could've been avoided if there was simply better communication. Sargeras could've simply told them, "Hey I might be evil, but there's the Void Lords which are far more terrifying and the Titans don't seem to have a solution. That's why I'm doing what I'm doing. Also if you stand against me, prepare to die- for I fight to make the universe a better place. " Illidan could've at least tried to explain some of his visions to Tyrande and his brother. And then during the Black Temple Raid, after we killed off so many of his lieutenants, he could've told us why he was doing what he was doing. I would've stopped right there and said, "Ok, let's go fight the legion." And then when I learnt about Sargeras quest to fight the Void Lords, I'd say "Ok, let's go fight the Void Lords." Btw, I still don't know what Teron Gorefiend was doing in Black Temple. It seemed like he was pretty well settled when we got there. And the quest where we put his soul back into his body didn't really answer why he was in Black Temple. I guess Illidan wouldn't mind having one of the original Death Knights on his side, especially those that were still warlocks. But still, kind of out of place. Also are demon hearts not like mortal hearts? I mean it seems that eating the heart doesn't constitute drinking its blood. Our hearts are full of blood, so if demon hearts are anything like ours, then it would be odd to imagine that you could eat the heart without drinking the blood.
Our hearts aren't 'full of blood'. It isn't some storage sack. It's a pump. There will be some blood in it as it's pumping but ultimately the heart is not exactly high capacity and really if you just ripped it out a lot of that little bit is coming out anyways. They got a small sip while consuming the heart. They needed to chug. The better question is why eat the heart at all, but frankly that was likely just borrowed from occult nonsense.
Why do some demons actually fight with Illidan against the Burning Legion? What are their motivations? Illidan had Succubi, Dreadlords and Shivarra and other demons in his army. Why would they fight for him? Thats something i question myself.
That was actually partly explained during the green harvest questline. Illidan offered them "power not unlike the original well of eternity in azeroth" as payment for their service. By feeding upon this place's power, they were broken free from their addiction to the legions magic. th-cam.com/video/jOVpAjMguxQ/w-d-xo.htmlm
To add to that, this new source of power was the reliqiary of souls or rather the place where it was chained. This nexus of arcane power was also supposed to become a replacement-Sunwell for the Bloodelfs.
I believe Illidan used his vials from the first pool in the Black Temple. The demons where given an option by illidan to get slain or join Illidan and use his new pool. I am not quite sure tho
This was definitely my favorite part of the store so far. This is very informative. LoL everyone in my group always asks me how come I know so much Lore and I saw "Cuz I watch Nobbel". They call me the resident Lore officiant because of my ability to answer questions that you have answered. I tell them that without you I'd know nothing though. Anyway, Thank You for all the Lore information. :D I can't wait for next week's episode. I am surprised that Illidan and the Illidari are willing to help after what Maiev after being imprisoned for so many years with nothing but their own thoughts and the demon mind to keep them company. You'd think they would all be NUTS at that point.... and maybe they are and that is why they help lol. I can't wait till Tuesday when I can finally make a Demon Hunter. I had to wait for me collector's edition BOX!!! :D Thanks for the great stories.
Somehow death knights and demon hunters have some similarities about their creators: Arthas/Illidan, their powers came from Legion source(Kil'Jaeden created Lich King/Sargeras give power to Illidan),and both of them sacrifice themselves for greater good,but unfortunately Arthas failed and become LK xD
man guy you are a living loremaster you know everything at the right time takes hard work and dedication to get to where you're at.. Hats off to a true guru. I'll be subscribed to you until the end of wow just keep dishing out raw great vids. You rock Nobs!
Illidan's "You are not prepared!!" at TBC intro was one of the coolest shit i have ever seen. 30% of Legion related script is Illidan saying "prepared this prepared that" and i find it more sickening than apexis crystals.
It would have been REALLY cool if Blizzard started the Demon Hunter questline *before* Mardum, and gave you a backstory to your DH transformation similar to the story in this video. It would have given players a bit more background information to the lore as well.
Nobbel, your're great! I love your storytelling method, feel a bit of pashion in it, on every video you do. i wish you a long life bro, and keep up the great work!
Samwise (one of the artists at Blizzard) hid pandas in a lot of his work. Similarly, other art departments started doing it. It just so happened that the model for Demon Hunters had a panda hidden on them (it looked like runes in gameplay, but the cutscenes were a lot closer up and made it easier to see).
Also thats how Pandaria came to be, in WC3 Pandas were kind of a running joke just for fun, and then they just randomly decided to make an expansion for them after cata lol
Kyle P. To expand on that a bit, Samwise drew a picture of a panda samurai with a little panda girl for (I think for his daughter on her 1st birthday, but don't quote me on the specifics), and it accidentally wound up on the official Blizzard site under WCIII concept art. Blizzard decided to make an April Fools joke out of it, saying that "Pandarens" were going to be the 5th playable race. They thought everyone would find it really stupid, but it became insanely popular among the fans. People were seriously disappointed when they found out it was fake. They eventually added Pandarens as a hero class in Frozen Throne, and even gave one a mildly important (and at the very least memorable) role in the campaign. It actually makes me really sad whenever I see people shitting on MoP and the Pandaren. I've never seen a bigger love-letter added to a game: a whole expansion and playable race for the fans who embraced a silly idea with an open mind and open arms years ago.
MurlocAggroB Yeah, the mission where you attempt to recapture illidan and you get chen to help is always a fun one, but I never knew the specifics in the office, thanks for the extra lil story
+Spektre2228 Wait, you're still mad about that? Wow... You know what, how about this: you calm down, and stop wasting my time. In exchange, you'll be able to do some homework!
Nobbel you have out done yourself on this story, as I am having to wait till 16th of sep to get a new comp and legion I am stinging to watch part 2 of this. Hope you guys and girls are having fun with no lag
I imagine since the Mardum questline had the whole "I can never die, just need to find a suitable body to inhabit" that Vandel will provide that body for Illidan to return.
Hi Nobbel, great vid as always. However, I think you made a very minor mistake (8:48) when you call Illidan "The Deceiver". That would be for Kiljaeden, right?
Yay, I've been waiting for this! It's always so interesting to watch your videos! I had no idea that you got extra dialogue if you sacrificed yourself for the gateway, that's pretty cool. Can't wait for the next part :D
Wait, so does multiverse work in conjunction with a single burning legion? Like, there's an infinite number of worlds in different realities, but only one legion to conquer them all? Because that would partially explain, why did we even give a shit in WoD. I guess.
I wonder that the demons inside of demon hunters believe on moonguard or argent dawn. "NO! STOP THE HORRORS! NOT THE FUTAS! NOT THE FUTAS! I MUST TELL SARGEARASS ABOUT THIS! WE MUST STOP RIGHT NOW AND STAY AWAY FROM THIS... THING AT ALL COSTS! I GIVE IN! JUST GET OUT OF THIS MISERABLE PLACE! ILL STOP FEEDING ON YOU! PLEASE STOP! AAAAAAHHHH!!!"
Nobbel could you possibly do a video on death in World of Warcraft? Eg. It makes sense demon hunters can respawn but what about a Paladin for example? Surely my Paladin doesn't have a soul from the twisting nether? Weird stuff.
Cyan your soul travels to the Shadowlands, which is basically the opposite of the Emerald Dream Should your body not be ruined, you can go back into it
I love how when Varian shouts FOR AZEROTH in the trailer it looks like, he is reading of a cue card and then almost stumbling on his words when he sees it says azeroth and not the alliance
I agree! As a demon hunter I really felt he was talking to my character. Really immersive. Like he singled us out to speak to as if we were meant to achieve great things. (Even if he didn't plan on us leading the Illidari in his place)
Wait, so does multiverse work in conjunction with a single burning legion? Like, there's an infinite number of worlds in different realities, but only one legion to conquer them all? Because that would partially explain, why did we even give a shit in WoD. I guess.
becouse the fell is eternal and not connected tot the material world duhh (would be easyer to explain in wh logic but as blizzard didnt pay enough this isnt connected)
INFINITE UNIVERSE ONE CREATOR OF UNIVERSERE=TITANS SARGERAS=TITAN GONE BAD=CREATE LEGION OF DEMONS DEMONS=FROM TWISTING NETHER TWISTING NETHER=REALM NOT IN A MATERIAL PLACE OR TIME, JUST KINDA EXIST AND SPAWNS DEMONS=ONE BURNING LEGION FOR THE INFINITE UNIVERSES
In the Novel Illidan (2016) Vandel wasnt the first, by the time he became a DH there was already 5 or 10 DH's who became the instructors, first the night elfs, then after that the Belfs , Illidan who didnt really trust, make them first swore full loyalty to him, and then he let them do the ritual...but Vandel was not the first :V
if you think about it if illidan wasent stoped multiple times he whould stop wrath of the litch king, wow legion and more than that lol , i bet malfurion is salty af
We didn't know that. Illidan never told anyone 100% of his plans. Kael, Vashj, and Akama knew some of his plans but not all of them, while we didn't know them at all. At the time our characters believed that he had joined the Legion and was going to attack Azeroth.
Hey! I just wanted to say that I have been REALLY enjoying your videos. You put a lot of great work into them, and it shows! Thanks for all the great videos and keep up the awesome work! Thanks again!
Medivh is literally Harry Potter. Think about it His mother fought with the dark lord. The dark lord fall and grasp on the only thing living. Medivh carry Sargeras influence when he was a kid,
@Nobbel87 I apologize if I should know this, but at about ~16:50 you see several Nathrazeme(sp?) in front of the black temple defending it. If Illidan has been trying to create a link to Argus and route the demons, why are they assisting him, or is this just a continuity error.
I love the thought that Fighting the Legion we could literally go and defend world after world from them and NEVER run out of planets to do this unless we kill the Legion at their source.
So if every demon hunter has a demon soul inside him, does that mean that Illidan has Sargeras' soul? Or at least part of it? Maybe that's why he was taken by Gul'dan
After reading the illidan novel, i got kinda mad and felt sorry for illidan, who has been misunderstood for all these years. in the past he tried explaining, but noone wanted to listen. and now he doesnt even bother anymore. Akama knew, that illidan was fighting against the legion and he knew that he succeeded invading the twisting nether. illidan even saved the guys from azeroth without them knowing it. and then they imprison him again and again, just to release him, whenever they need him as a weapon, just to lock him away and haing him, after he completed his task.
In my Daemon hunter story: Frnea Starweaver was once a sentinel in night elves assigned to guard an ancient moon well and the priest that resided over it (who happens to be her twin brother). when the legion invaded she did the task that was required of her but sadly the legion proved to much and the well was destroyed and only she and her brother survived. They rallied with the night elf forces that where defending the world tree and helped keep the legion back till the trap was set. after the events of Warcraft 3 Frnea was not entirely satisfied with the matter, the legion was beaten back but she knew that the legion would return and so wanted to invade them. no one listened of course so she set out looking for the one who did agree on the matter, illiadan.
Never explained in great detail. He used his magic to summon them in a cinematic during Warcraft 3 and that's about all the reason that was given. Vasjh mentioned that together with Illidan, they'd retake the surface but that never happened and yet they decided to stick around. Guess they warmed up to him
+Crowned Stag did illidan have Any kind of relationship with azshara. an that might be the reason she lend him her soldiers after she find out that he is free from hes prison?
"But should you fail, all worlds will burn"... Aight man, no pressure.
It's funny because when he said that most of hte illidari were already gone through the portal and only one or two heard it...
@@mancamiatipoola he is saying it to you
People wondering here why we attacked Illidan back then.
Answer is easy, we attacked him for the most glorious and selfless Reason ever. To get the Purple Stuff he gathered.
I wanted his warglaives.
You're telling me he got the purple stuff?

Or, more obtusely, there is no good guy, and Illidan is just another perfectly imperfect person. He's rad as hell tho
Burning Crusade: "YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!" - Illidan
Legion: "YOU WERE NOT PREPARED!" - Illidan
+Alexander Mill when i die playing my demon hunter i always hear "you were not prepared"
Nobble's channel is one of the reasons why I still play WoW so much.
Last time I was this early Varian and Vol'Jin were still alive.
Nice one.
;-;
too soon
+ashly temple Really? I actually recovered already from their deaths so I laughed at this xD
Oh shit man XD (It's funny cuz the Alliance got a pussy and we got Sylvanis)
+Thinh Vo You're single handly like that was a feat and not any other priest can create light and burn a demon :/

maybe you need more blood than what is contained in the heart ??
magic
Everything would have been avoided if Sargeras kept it in his head and stopped granting tremendous powers to random people.
Our hearts aren't 'full of blood'. It isn't some storage sack. It's a pump. There will be some blood in it as it's pumping but ultimately the heart is not exactly high capacity and really if you just ripped it out a lot of that little bit is coming out anyways. They got a small sip while consuming the heart. They needed to chug. The better question is why eat the heart at all, but frankly that was likely just borrowed from occult nonsense.
Since when you kill a demon it goes to the twsiting nether maybe consuming the heart makes it so it stays in you? idk man shits got so many holes xD
Take a shot everytime he says the word Legion.
You would be very dead.
YOUR LIVER IS NOT PREPARED!!!
challenge accepted! going to buy a new liver tomorrow anyway
goin to do it next time
Its sunday id still be drunk half way thru my shift tommrow
I love how you tell stories
4:00 - check out the hand guard design. Apparently the twin blades of Azzinoth were made by the Pandarens...

dame you now I cant UNsee that XPHAHAHA
Because he is prepared!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that saw that lol.
Its an easteregg nodding to the origins of Pandaria. Non-canon.

You know, even though I enjoy you telling the Lore of WoW, I enjoy you telling it like a bed time story.
8:46 .. "the deceiver told his new recruits"? wasn't the deceiver Kil'Jaeden?
Yeah bit of a typo; he meant the Betrayer, but whatever.
Damm you skillfull storytelling Nobbel! I was at the edge of my seat with such riverting story! Now i have to wait until the next video xD

This one's better
Maybe smoking felweed? Her eyes did glow green... XD
She was always batman. Even looks like him a little.

@@brendanlarsen3044 In short, yes.
Welcome to contemporary Blizzard retconning (and storytelling, in general).
You called illidan the deciever! Sick video though so pumped to see your legion content
I wonder that the demons inside of demon hunters believe on moonguard or argent dawn. "NO! STOP THE HORRORS! NOT THE FUTAS! NOT THE FUTAS! I MUST TELL SARGEARASS ABOUT THIS! WE MUST STOP RIGHT NOW AND STAY AWAY FROM THIS... THING AT ALL COSTS! I GIVE IN! JUST GET OUT OF THIS MISERABLE PLACE! ILL STOP FEEDING ON YOU! PLEASE STOP! AAAAAAHHHH!!!"
THIS IS THE LORE VIDEO THAT I AM LONGING TO SEE EVERY MONDAY !!!
Nobbel could you possibly do a video on death in World of Warcraft? Eg. It makes sense demon hunters can respawn but what about a Paladin for example? Surely my Paladin doesn't have a soul from the twisting nether? Weird stuff.
Cyan your soul travels to the Shadowlands, which is basically the opposite of the Emerald Dream
Should your body not be ruined, you can go back into it
Nobbel, your videos are an addiction that I could never get over. Keep em up! I can't wait for launch and for your next video! :D
lord illidan knows dae weh
8:45 Nobbel calls Illidan the "deceiver." Illidan is the BETRAYER. ;)
I never felt tired about illidan story even listen it for a thousand times...
Does Illidan know de wey?
"Ow no I'm stuck now! Lemme out lemme out lemme out!"
Much love Nobbel. Much love.
Before I watch this, does the video actually spoil anything from the novel, Illidan?
yes
maybe.
Yes. A lot. It's basically the 1/2 of the book.
it's a really good book, I learned alot that I wasn't aware of :)
I never Played this game but i watch all your lore Videos and i have to say, Illidian is the greatest!
Hey, are you that guy from those WoW livestreams?
very funny wieber
lul wiebs
He already does afaik..
I love how when Varian shouts FOR AZEROTH in the trailer it looks like, he is reading of a cue card and then almost stumbling on his words when he sees it says azeroth and not the alliance
Only Illidan would consider taking over an entire planet hiding and lying low :L
You wouldn't now what hiding is, you are not prepared!! (i'm gonna milk this joke dry, so much cringe)
a weeb talking about cringe ...
Someone is gonna get his ass kicked someday.
The first person point of view cutscenes was probably the greatest addition to story telling blizzard has ever done. WEll done!
I agree! As a demon hunter I really felt he was talking to my character. Really immersive. Like he singled us out to speak to as if we were meant to achieve great things. (Even if he didn't plan on us leading the Illidari in his place)
if your soul is immortal and goes back into your body how does the 3rd portal open
I know right? This has been bothering me so much!!!!
Nobbel87 please explain :/
magic
i guess he sacrificed his body and the demons inside it and his soul absorbed the powers
The other demon hunter sacrifices himself anyway. It doesn't show it, but i found his ghost in my class hall and he said it was worth it
After having read the Illidan book a few weeks ago, I thoroughly love the Demon hunters lore. Illidan knows the way!

8:49 I think you might have meant Betrayer here, not Deceiver.
I still don't understand why we attacked illidan in BC. He wants to defeat the legion.
We didn't really know that back then. Illidan never told anyone his plans except for his demon hunters eventually.
We didn't know that though. We just saw him raising an army of demons and fel orcs.
We didn't know that. Illidan never told anyone 100% of his plans. Kael, Vashj, and Akama knew some of his plans but not all of them, while we didn't know them at all. At the time our characters believed that he had joined the Legion and was going to attack Azeroth.
We didn't know that
A'dal said us go stop that winged lunatic that's good enough for me...
Hey! I just wanted to say that I have been REALLY enjoying your videos. You put a lot of great work into them, and it shows! Thanks for all the great videos and keep up the awesome work! Thanks again!
The last time I was this early...
No one cared
we still dont
I do since you need help fellow DH.
Lord Illidan knows the way.
But You Were Prepared
I love Illidan's voice actor's work. I somehow picture Hugo Weaving when I hear him talk.
So Illidan is harry potter and Sargeras is Voldemort.
Medivh is literally Harry Potter. Think about it
His mother fought with the dark lord. The dark lord fall and grasp on the only thing living. Medivh carry Sargeras influence when he was a kid,
splinte111
Nope...Illidan is Snape. Hated, misunderstood and scorned by the woman he loved.
Oooh man, last lore video before Legion, so excite PogChamp
Ugandan knuckles, anyone?
You have to love illidan's story, such a cool original idea
He does not kno de wae
Illidan is so cool the fact he's voiced by garras voice actor( I'm 99% sure anyway) is just a cherry on top !
Maiev represents feminism irl
08:47 Illidan is "The Deceiver" now? XD
Does he know da wae
Awesome video, can't wait for the next one!
He does kno da wae my bruuda!!!
@Nobbel87 I apologize if I should know this, but at about ~16:50 you see several Nathrazeme(sp?) in front of the black temple defending it. If Illidan has been trying to create a link to Argus and route the demons, why are they assisting him, or is this just a continuity error.
he knows de wae
6:50 where is that video scene from? I don't remember it. O_O
17:42 wasnt the Fel reaver boss seen there an enemy of Illidan?
8:50 The deceiver? isn't illidan the betrayer? deceiver is Kil'Jaeden's title
I love the thought that Fighting the Legion we could literally go and defend world after world from them
and NEVER run out of planets to do this unless we kill the Legion at their source.
So if every demon hunter has a demon soul inside him, does that mean that Illidan has Sargeras' soul? Or at least part of it? Maybe that's why he was taken by Gul'dan
6:37 Keal'thas: "wow that's phrase that I should re-use someday"
You did a great job man!!! I am looking forward for the next video :D
After reading the illidan novel, i got kinda mad and felt sorry for illidan, who has been misunderstood for all these years. in the past he tried explaining, but noone wanted to listen. and now he doesnt even bother anymore. Akama knew, that illidan was fighting against the legion and he knew that he succeeded invading the twisting nether. illidan even saved the guys from azeroth without them knowing it.
and then they imprison him again and again, just to release him, whenever they need him as a weapon, just to lock him away and haing him, after he completed his task.
Nobbel needs to do an audio book, that voice acting was perfect
Ahhahah 22:55, enable closed captions (cc / subtitles), and read what it says when "you" are imprisoned :D
Once again, an awesome video. Keep it up!
Thanks for the upload! :D
8:49 The Deciever? Not the Betrayer? :P
this story was awesome, great work!
this is one of your best videos.
@8:53 you mean the Betrayer, not the Deceiver?
Waaaaaaant mooooore :) as Always a good job! Keep IT up!
It will be awesome to finally see an Illidan redemption story. Since he has an immortal demon soul and can never truly die.
In my Daemon hunter story: Frnea Starweaver was once a sentinel in night elves assigned to guard an ancient moon well and the priest that resided over it (who happens to be her twin brother). when the legion invaded she did the task that was required of her but sadly the legion proved to much and the well was destroyed and only she and her brother survived. They rallied with the night elf forces that where defending the world tree and helped keep the legion back till the trap was set. after the events of Warcraft 3 Frnea was not entirely satisfied with the matter, the legion was beaten back but she knew that the legion would return and so wanted to invade them. no one listened of course so she set out looking for the one who did agree on the matter, illiadan.
Illidan deserved better.
that scene in warcraft 3 i always wonder why illidan sounded wierd when he said "i promised" to Kiljaden
dude you awsome .. i love those lore ...keep going whith nice work .
+Nobbel87 How did Illidan recruit the nagas, or why did they follow him?
Never explained in great detail. He used his magic to summon them in a cinematic during Warcraft 3 and that's about all the reason that was given. Vasjh mentioned that together with Illidan, they'd retake the surface but that never happened and yet they decided to stick around. Guess they warmed up to him
+Nobbel87 ok, thanks for the answer :)
Maybe for the same reason the blood elves did? Addiction to magic. Illidan promised them endless power
I think Lady Vashj was serving Azhara as an inside spy in Illidan's ranks.
+Crowned Stag did illidan have Any kind of relationship with azshara. an that might be the reason she lend him her soldiers after she find out that he is free from hes prison?
