Krexus dying off screen is still perhaps one of the worst storyline decisions of the 9.0 experience and I have no idea why the hell they bothered making him seem like such an important character when ultimately he just never mattered, ever.

This is what ticked me off the most in my leveling experience in Shadowlands. I was the most excited in seeing this character as I loved his design and from what I saw at him at the start. Then they just kill him off off-screen and in an unfulfilling way.

The only thing about him is that he looks cool. He's in the actual game for what, like 2 literal minutes? He's a goddamn Margrave & dies off screen and never mattered. Why did the animation make him seem like he mattered? WHY IS HE ON THE LOADING SCREEN IF HE'S THIS UNIMPORTANT.

I've got two guesses as to why. 1. There was another storyline they were going to do with him and they scrapped it. 2. Krexus isn't going to stay dead and his crappy death was done that way so it doesn't feel "off" that he's back.

My only issue with the idea of the Primus returning (Which he clearly is because he's obviously the Runecarver) and resurrecting Krexus is that at that point, the Primus is back and he overshadows Krexus in importance, especially since we had only literally 2 minutes with Krexus.

The Primus will definitely overshadow the Margrave(s) but it would be cool to see him in action as a leader of his Covenant. We're bound to see new Margraves get created or anointed by the Primus at some point.

Yes that's what I've always thought. I think it's pretty obvious all the returning characters who are in Maldraxxus are going to become Margraves.
