    Since Loken was the Prime Designate (leader) of the Titan Keepers, the killing of him in Halls of Lightning is actually the event that signaled Algalon the Observer to come to Azeroth to investigate what was going on and discover all of the Old God corruption. Which is probably one of the biggest lore events in all of Warcraft since Algalon nearly destroyed the entire planet as we know it.

    The only way I can see Blizz fixing the Murozond plot is by making him a raid boss somewhere down the line and the players kicking his arse so much he runs back to that hourglass to heal, only for him to die like in the endtime dungeon.

    What is very interesting about Kael is, if you speak german, the last sentence, where kael'thas screams out that the world shall burn, is so angry in english, but in the german version, he says it with much more tragedy and his last scream doesn't seem purely out of anger like the english version, but also out of desperation. And as dumb as it sounds, the german voice actor of Kael'thas is the reason, if I like to play with german sounds. This last sentence after you kill him in Magisters' Terrace is so much better and deeper in german than it is in English IMO.

    Ner’zhul was one of the biggest missed opportunities in WoD. He was such an interesting and complex character that was like the old horde’s Arthas, being tricked and deceived down a dark path by Gul’dan and Kil’jaeden.
    That could have been such an interesting story as I can easily see a scenario where he takes a completely different path, fighting to keep Orcs free of the legion’s corruption if he’d been given more information early in his ride. How they managed to ignore a character of that importance I will never know.

    To be fair, Archaedas WAS a rather challenging boss in Vanilla. Revisited in classic, groups could easily wipe on him if he was still red-level for them or orange-level (Meaning their hits would miss alot more). The dude became trivial later on with nerfing, but originally he was a decent challenge. Plus compare it with the fact Uldaman was a massive dungeon of winding tunnels, locked doors (the scepter), I'd consider the dungeon overall to be a mini raid.

    I do think it is a bit odd to think of them as "just" dungeon bosses. Some dungeons come as the climax to big-ass storylines. Ner'zhul was built up for a whole bloody zone for example. The fact that we are five people instead of twenty five doesn't mean the dungeon is lesser, surely?

      It's hard to really nail down the importance of dungeon bosses since dungeons in vanilla were mostly just presented smaller side adventures where as some later dungeons have a lot more weight behind em.. That said, being 5 people does speak to the power of the character I'd say (or lack there of).
      Anub'arak for example was basically Arthas' third in command and deserved his own raid from the beginning... being a dungeon boss and later a shoe in raid boss did not do him justice.

    I'm pretty sure Ner'zul and his Dungeon were originally going to be a raid. They have been demoting Raids to Dungeons since Wrath of the Lich King, usually when Blizzard realizes the current expansion is lacking in 5-man Dungeons. Loken was intended to be the final boss of Ulduar and Yogg Sarron was supposed to be the boss of his own underground Raid, which was probably going to be in the cut underground questing zone.

    This is one of the best top 10s I've ever seen in the quality of reasoning of the order. Top 10s are always subjective, but even allowing that many don't follow the rules they make for themselves, use fuzzy logic and otherwise appear naturally flawed, but this list appears quite sound and logical in its progression up the top ten for how 'lol, what?' each boss appearance in a dungeon is. The only one I could reasonably argue against is Murmur, who like Archaedas was simply slapped-together lore for the dungeon itself, rather than a being of major lore outside the universe who was given a disappointing dungeon appearance. In addition, he is actually by far the most powerful dungeon boss of BC, considering you fight him at a fraction of his 'Max' HP when you arrive and he still has end-boss current HP, so he was at least not treated like a run-of-the-mill dungeon boss. I'd probably exchange his place for another BC dungeon boss, WARCHIEF Kargath Bladefist, who despite being a pre-WoW hero Orc figure was simply a dungeon boss. But even if I don't fully agree, I concede the subjective logic of Murmur--a nigh-omnipotent entity shoehorned into simple dungeon lore and boss status.

      Just a thought though hypothetically speaking, what if he wasn't outside time itself? More so he is connected with all his other existences through time and space through his gifted power. That way you could only kill him in what would be our (true) timeline to be canonically dead (except his past versions of course) because the alternate versions would be erased or ignored by our true timelines events that make it different. Hope that made sense, did in my head ...
      OR far fetched theory! Nozdormu's true End Time event was nothing more than an old god hallucination. Early seeds that could later be the cause of his conversion into Morozond? Therefore that End Time possibility was nothing more than an old god vision? We know the void can see infinite possibilities but cant always tell which is the true future (something like that). Corruption could of taken longer as he wasnt as susceptible to old god corruption as Deathwing was due to his connection with Azeroth.

    Makes sense to have some lore figures in quests and dungeons though, because they have lore or story attached to them, just more easily accessible. It honestly makes more sense they get killed/defeated through a cutscene or dungeon than having 30 people nuking magic on them with hardly losing health. It's like if Hitler survived 40 ppl shooting at him during the WW2 because he was the main boss. That does happen though in Wolfenstein 3D but you still get my point. Makes more sense to defeat bosses with a normal amount of players than an army.

    In the original BRD, most groups killed Moira Bronzebeard (Now Moira Thaurissan, leader of the Dark Iron Dwarves) before they killed Emperor. Pretty major lore character who was mostly a healy speedbump at the end of a LONG dungeon. I suppose Moira's death isn't Canon since killing her was optional and she is leading a faction of the alliance, but seems like some clever Retcon for a leader we basically farmed in Classic.

    I think it should be obvious that the amount of people needed to down the boss ingame isn't equal to the correct amount of people needed to do it in lore.
    I mean, I doubt that in lore 25 people were hitting Arthas at the same time, they were mostly fighting with undead that he summoned, and it was probably a little more than 25 people, and you could say that in the cases of other abnormally powerful bosses that got downed by just 5 people, it's because they were fighting alone against those 5 people, and lorewise the fight still took way more effort and luck than ingame and/or they were just THAT good. Still, just remember that power levels don't mean jackshit in Warcraft, there's only "strong and stronger". Villains stronger than raid bosses can be defeated in 5-men dungeon if they felt like they were good to become final bosses in dungeons but didn't have enough "substance" to make raids based around them, since raids are stored for more important lore characters in that specific expansion.

    Yeah pretty much all four of the faction leaders you fight before Murazond are all distraught and maybe slightly insane, but if anything that should have just made Tyrande a hell of a lot deadlier. It wasn't even like her goddess completely abandoned her, even if she was calling out to her like she couldn't hear, she was still doing several of her main powers associated with Elune, including raining hell from the sky. Something that has obliterated armies in the past. By herself, she is a powerhouse of a leader that is an absolute force to be reckoned with.
    And five random arseholes just kinda wander in blindly (literally, since its in darkness) without any aid from the Bronze dragons, and put her down just like that. I mean, even if she was a little more insane and frightened, you'd kinda think that'd make her even deadlier, not holding back with her abilities, but... nope.
