In WoW the Stonemaul Clan is located in Dustwallow Marsh rather than MulgoreĪnd that’s literally all the retcons I noticed. Theramore should have a marsh-like tileset as is shown in WoW. Rest of the Rexxar campaign: Mulgore should have a more lush tileset as is shown in WoW. Rend & Maim: According to events in WoW there is no way they could be in Outland during the events of Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne, let alone be killed by Illidan and Kael’ThasĬhen Stormstout: In Warcraft 3 Chen says he’s from Pandarian, but in WoW Mists of Pandaria Chen says he is in fact from Wandering Isle, and hasn’t ever set foot on Pandaria before the WoW Expansion That’s allīlack Citadel: the tileset should have green-black color scheme like the Shadowmoon Valley in WoW, rather than the Hellfire Peninsula -like red-black Gul’dan’s servants: In Warcraft 3 Gul’dan is shown to have shamans with him, even though during the Second War, Horde didn’t have shamans, but warlocksīlood Elves: Not necessarily a retcon either, but in Warcraft 3 it is implied that only the high elves following Kael’thas are called blood elves, when it is later shown that in fact mostly all (with the exception of a few individuals) high elves changed their nameĪkama and other draenei: Only retconned thing that I really noticed, was their model. Suramar: The Suramar tileset should resemble Suramar from WoW, rather than the Sunken Ruins in Warcraft 3 Skull of Gul’dan: Illidan is seen to destroy the Skull of Gul’dan upon absorbing its powers, but it is later seen that it’s not actually destroyed and Illidan takes it with him It is though possible he lost his old bandana during the 10,000 years, or it grew black with time, so this may not necessarily be a retcon He also drops in WoW a black bandana, which is possibly given to him by Sargeras. In WoW and Warcraft 3, however, Illidan is seen wearing a black bandana. Illidan’s Blindfold: In the book ‘War of the Ancients: The Well of Eternity’, Illidan is said to have been given an amber bandana by Lady Vashj. Muradin: In Warcraft 3 it is shown that the ice shard in which the Frostmourne was sealed in, kills Muradin, but this whole scene was later changed and Muradin doesn’t actually dieĭreadlords’ deaths: Not technically a retcon, but in Warcraft 3 it is implied that Mal’Ganis and Balnazzar are killed, when this is later shown not to be the case Sunwell: In WoW Burning Crusade it was shown that the Sunwell is actually on a small island just north of Silvermoon, not inside Silvermoon - this would be very minor change really to Warcraft 3, just make some water around the Sunwell and put a couple of bridges around (Edit: Actually, as someone pointed out, the Sunwell always was on an island, even in Warcraft 3, as is shown in the loading screen, so this even isn’t a retcon) Orc skin color: There is one red-skinned orc in Strahnbrad, which questionable, but not necessarily lore-breaking, I guess.Īlso a side note: orcs, who were left back in Eastern Kingdoms and didn’t leave with Thrall, shouldn’t have troll headhunters - not really a retcon, but just an error within the game Maps and cartography: Maps and the loading screens would obviously be good to be updated to modern day to prevent confusion among new players So, I decided to go through the whole RoC and TFT campaign and I surprised even myself about how little there is to change: Very little of WoW’s story even affects WC3’s story. But I just wanna say: there really is no WoW story that would overrule WC3 story. I keep reading a lot that people are worried that this will become “WoW the RTS” and that they hate WoW lore and story and that Blizzard ruined it all in WoW.
