@@2TheExile His name before he went crazy was Neltharion. Xaxas is what the kaldorei called him after he went crazy, because it means Chaos in Darnassian.
Can we all, years later, still appreciate the fact that in lore, Deathwing's body was falling apart, so he had his followers make red-hot elementium plates to forge ONTO his body to hold it together because of the sheer amount of uncontrolled, dark magic within him? The fact that he created an entire DRAGONFLIGHT on his own using the dark magic of the Old Ones? That he ACTUALLY sundered Azeroth, and years later, we're still seeing the marks of his time upon the world? Many antagonists WANT to destroy things. Deathwing DID it.
“Pain... Agony... My hatred burns through the cavernous deeps. The world heaves with my torment. Its wretched kingdoms quake... beneath my rage. But at last, the whole of Azeroth will break. And all will burn... beneath the shadow... of my wings...” -Deathwing, Cataclysm Cinematic Trailer
It's crazy to notice how the music was very different from WoTLK and Cata, Wrath you heard icy, mysterious, spine-chilling music, but on cata, its like all hope is lost and the entire world is being destroyed by a chaotic hell driven dragon.
Cataclysm really gives you that big feel of raw power, chaos and destruction. Rewatching the Trailer for Cata, you realise how impresive the music is in combination with the imagery. The gigantic monster that is Deathwing, his every movement causing mayhem and destruction to the world, alongside this mighty tune. Heads off to Blizzard, to be honest.
In WoW, I agree, Arthas beats DW slightly. But if you include the WoW books, DW is a million times more badass. Ner'Zhul was just an orc that regretted helping the Legion and was tortured, killed and revived until he agreed to keep helping them. Arthas was prince, but a very bratty one to begin with. Just two people being douches together, with power over the undead. Neltharion was already plotting with the Old Gods since before the Sundering, 10000 years before the current events in WoW. He manipulated the dragons in the War of the Ancients, the Alliance during the Second War, and of course, the in-game events related to the Hour of Twilight. Whenever he's not demolishing cities, he's plotting in disguise to weave history in his favor.
I love Deathwing, I love his concept, and best of all, I love his music. The Spine of Deathwing fight, however, is still completely and utterly borked.
Great villain, not quite on the level of Arthas in terms of interacting with the player, but that makes sense, since Deathwing's motives are so alien to us as players, and he's not as relatable. Still, really loved that he'd just randomly show up and set fire to an entire zone, instantly killing anyone in it. Gave the world a sense of danger. Too bad about his actual boss fights though.
TheYoungtrust Yes, but I'm not talking about his offspring. I'm talking about direct references. The last time we even remotely heard from Deathwing was in Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness.
I think it was enough hi9nt when we actually took both his son and daughter to the floor, that Deathwing was going to rush us with an angry face... DS deceptioned me a bit.
I still remember the damn shitstorm when everyone saw the destruction wrought upon Azeroth in the cinematics and went "OH MY GOD THEY'RE LITERALLY BLOWING UP HALF THE WORLD DUDE." and Deathwing was flying around setting things on fire for little reason than just doing it. And it was cool. I want that back.
He had Epic Dialogue. Pain... Agony... My Hatred burns through the cavernous deeps. The world heaves with my torment. It's wretched kingdoms quake beneath my rage. But at last, the whole of Azeroth will break. And all will burn beneath the shadow of my wings...
Pain.... Agony.... My Hatred burns trough the cavernous deeps!.... The world heaves with my torment! Its retched Kingdoms quake beneath my rage..... But at last.. The whole of Azeroth will break!... And all will burn Beneath shadow of my wings!... ROOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of all the stuff in Cataclysm, this theme is probably the best thing to come from it. It knocks out WotLK's, Mop's, etc. this theme is just so amazing, epic, and breathes death!
But we have to admit Wrath overall had the best cinematic trailer. The music, the chilling story behind it, the atmosphere, that Terenas narration, the rise of Sindragosa... yeah. Not to mention it looked pretty much real - that was definitely one of Blizzard's best CGI works ever.
Xaxas is another name for deathwing, given to him by the mortal races of Azeroth after he became corrupted and thus was not worthy of being called aspect of the earth any longer.
"The elves had another name for him, spoken only in whispers and only in the elder tongue almost forgotten. *Xaxas* . A short title with many meanings, all dire. Chaos, Fury. The embodiment of elemental rage such as found in erupting volcanoes or shattering earthquakes. If Alexstrasza represented the elements of life that bound the world together, then Deathwing exemplified the destructive forces that constantly sought to rip it apart."
Pain....Agony....My hatred burns through the cavernous deeps. The world heaves with my torment. Its wretched kingdoms quake beneath my rage. But at last....The whole of Azeroth will break....And all will burn beneath the shadow of my wings.
Indeed, the hour of twilight would have corrupted the world soul with void, and thus bring shadow to the entire universe azeroths world soul is the strongest in the universe
Those were simpler times. I remember the first time I watched the Cataclysm cinematic on RUclips, weeks before it launched. Someone said that the Stormwind theme sounded so... heroic. In a way, it does. But I thought it sounded more... desperate. Another person - Horde player, obviously - was amused by what I said. "Haha, puny Alliance", something to that effect. So I clarified. Desperate in the sense of... Stormwind's final stand. The return of Deathwing. The end of Azeroth. _The Hour of Twilight._
This song makes me want to see Death Battle do Deathwing vs. Alduin. Sure, the fight would be one sided as fuck as well as immensely short, but it'd be fun to watch. :D
+Zonsku Pelaa Smaug was fucking lame, he got fucked by 1 damn arrow in the beginning of the last part of film. But was built up as this menacing threat that will fucking deep fry the whole village
Deathwing is pretty much a god, Smaug is just a dragon. The only reason he was a threat was because he could easily kill humans and elves because of his size
They conveyed a great enemy in Cataclysm with him, not only he had been able to cause a whole world change, but he was shown to be able to bring about the end of all Azeroth in one single hit, the Well of Eternity, also showed the prime point of no return for his insanity. The raid of Dragon Soul might not be spectacular, but the end with him is, either you win, or you lose Azeroth with you. He left the Dragonflights mortal and open for an attack, not bad for an enemy mostly left out since WC2.
I love the metallic "clang", like in the terminator theme. I always imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger standing in the back of the orchestra, hammering on an anvil.
My best memories are from back then, and it's my favorite. I was just starting back then but hell I enjoyed it. I just wish dragon soul was a little bit better.
In ONE EXPANSION: - The Worgen broke through Gilneas' defences and cursed all of the Gilneans with lycanthropy - Kul Tiras was sent out to unknown seas by the Cataclysm and hasn't been seen since - Southshore and Menethil Harbor were destroyed by the Cataclysm tidal waves - Deathwing took a huge shit on Stormwind (which we haven't yet cleaned up for some reason 6 years later) - and at the very last moment when we thought Blizzard was done picking on Humans, Hellscream dropped the Fat Man on Theramore. I remember that this was the expansion where everyone started to believe that Blizzard was heavily biased towards the Horde, and for good reason considering the evidence.
"Боль... Агония... Моя ненависть выжигает земные недра. Мои муки сотрясают этот мир. Королевства содрогаются от моей ярости. Скоро Азерот будет разрушен! И всё сгорит дотла в тени моих крыльев."
From what I understand, the reason he was acting so contradictory to that image provided in lore is that by the events of Cataclysm, Neltharion's mind had deteriorated so badly that he barely had any identity of his own, let alone any of his former cunning.
I like how almost every main bad guy in this game (aside from kil'jaeden) has had a tragic story;Illidan: Who was betrayed by everyone he held dear and was banished by his own brother, ended up dying for no real purpose, also his love for tyrande was unrequited. Arthas a.k.a The Lich King: Literally sacrificed everything for the sake of his people yet died as nothing more as a martyr and had to be replaced by someone else thus continuing the sad tale of the lich king.
I think it was his arrogance that stopped him from simply destroying the world outright, many villains in the warcraft universe suffer from the same thing.
@@tywinlannister8015 The Dovahkiin, with the power of the voice, in the lore, can shatter mountains, blow away armies.

A puppet of the Old Gods. Dovahkiin can, and would contend with him. Yes, I am replying to a 3 year old comment. You're welcome for enlightening you👊😎👌
Matthew Slee Personally, I think Ancalagon alone is worthy of fear. It took an army of eagles and a demi-god Elf in an airship 24 hours to finally kill him. Deathwing required one 25-man raid and a mary sue the duration of a raid to kill him.
Havic1137 It took 25 man + Dragon soul (power of all aspects except deathwing) and the aspects themselves to stop deathwing and this guy can destroy cities with just flying over them.
Matthew Slee Perhaps a Deathwing of size of Galakrond? Since Deathwing is way smaller than Ancalagon, positive plus negative equal negative. Galakrond's size will be perfect I think.
+DoctahPeppah Their is "Gods" and "Gods" you know. Gods with planetary destruction powers and universal Gods who can delete galaxies, not the same level, but for mortals they are all Gods because of their insane powers in compare to them. In God of War, they are island destructors (and really few of them). Deathwing is godlike in WoW, he's rage and destruction incarnate. The last spell of Deathwing (the one we interrupted by killing him) was the last Cataclysm, world destruction level. And nothing can kill Deathwing, no mortals, no Gods of his level (other aspects), only the Dragon Soul with all the powers of the other Aspects : God like creatures gave their powers (ALL their powers, even their immortality) just to charge a Godlike weapon able to kill the most powerful dragon ever. Well. I don't really like Deathwing as a villain, because he's a little bit too powerful in my opinion : even Blizzard had hard time to find a way to kill him. And that was a giant plot hole (we stole the dragon soul from the past... Nozdormu wtf ?)
+Mister Sunlight It's not actually that much of a plot hole if you think about it. Once the Dragon Soul was used and Nozdormu lost his power (along with the other aspects), it sort of got "snapped back" to were it would have been in history without the Aspect of Time's power holding it in the present. Thus, creating a stable time loop.
TheWhiteFaction PVE as hard? It was basically BC PVE, just with 10 times more whiners. Besides, I was talking about about Cata in general. That includes that year long Dragon Soul and that 4.1 that for some reason only put 2 dungeons, which, may I add, were the worst two dungeons to put ever.
13 37 Yeah i start playing in TBC and i have to say Cataclysm had best visual gear. But nothing will beat the warlock wings in TBC. Most epic gear blizzard made for players.
yeah you are right for those points indeed, I only wish he was included more during the questing other than the randomly flying over zones and killing people and the intro to Twilight Highlands for Horde. Though I did really enjoy his fight with Alextrasia in Twilight Highlands.
I think what they failed to translate was how his madness was finally taking it's toll; it was way too downplayed as "the whispers of the old ones growing worse in recent years"; hence, he could still act as he did in Cata and it still made sense; he was losing what little vestiges of sanity were left in him by Cata. Still, it was neat to see the dragon feared by ALL races in legend ravage the world.
I know I'm late to the party, but it actually did appear in the games, but only through quest texts, and a lot of people simply clicked accept and didn't read the texts most lore in Shadow Highlands near Grim Batol (Cho'Galls Hideout) but Darkshore, Thousand Needles and especially Silithus and the deserts south of it had a lot of lore in the quest texts
Just one think, Illidan started working for the nagas during WotA and eventully wanted more power, which is why he was bannished, he was a threat and his brother saw that ... Also, his brother took the exile with him and Illidan got out from the emerald nightmare before his brother
Yes, thats quite right. Of course players see it as months of farming and killing and so on, but the main story with the Rise of Deathwing to his fall is only at the most a few days long.
I do believe the entire Cataclysm Xpac was only focused on a few days times I heard that it was basically 1 night and 1 day long. So Deathwing circling around Dragonblight might've been actually a few minutes or hours of time.
@Admartimus Lich King-created as puppet by Kil'Jaeden. Deathwing-created as and Aspect and Guardian of Azeroth by the Titans themselves. Now empowered by the powers of the Old Gods aswell. Now guess who's stronger.
@Rykanable Lich King - Arthas an ner'zhul together, being able to stop ur heart by just blinking Deathwing - a crazed Aspect that has been blessed by the Titans, corrupted by the old Gods and now a puppet of them... and the fact that the LK is a puppet of Kil'Jaeden doesnt make him weak... Deathwing is though

Honestly, I think Deathwing was one of the most badass villains in WoW. Arthas still beats him by a small margin.
In WoW, I agree, Arthas beats DW slightly. But if you include the WoW books, DW is a million times more badass.
Ner'Zhul was just an orc that regretted helping the Legion and was tortured, killed and revived until he agreed to keep helping them. Arthas was prince, but a very bratty one to begin with. Just two people being douches together, with power over the undead.

He manipulated the dragons in the War of the Ancients, the Alliance during the Second War, and of course, the in-game events related to the Hour of Twilight. Whenever he's not demolishing cities, he's plotting in disguise to weave history in his favor.
the thing is, Deathwing / Neltharion didnt have enough deepness in his story...
I'm thinking you're seriously undervaluating Arthas' story...
and to think he was voiced by the man himself
Don't forget Garrosh dude... Don't forget him...
I love Deathwing, I love his concept, and best of all, I love his music. The Spine of Deathwing fight, however, is still completely and utterly borked.

That atmosphere and dialogue and genuine fear from the aspects during the fight though.
its shame that one of most strongest villians was only remebered in wc2 and War of Acients , then i never heard of him, not a single word.
Hey, at least Spine of Deathwing Heroic was insane.
Madness though.... yeah.

We need a bad guy like Deathwing, one who just wants to watch the world BURN.
And one that's actually threatening.
Malefor: u cent defeat me i am enternal
Deathwing : u WANT ME !????
if you guys didnt know, Xaxas is a name given to Deathwing by the Night Elfs
Deathwing was the last WoW lore boss that I actually cared for.
Best. Triangle. Ever.
When I listen to this, I picture Kratos vs Deathwing.
DoctahPeppah Deathwing stomps. Kratos has nothing.
Bracken Idk, He did kill the entire pantheon of Greek gods. I'd imagine He'd work through Deathwing in an instant.
DoctahPeppah Greek Gods with mountain level destructive capability at best. Deathwing cracked the planet by throwing a tantrum underground.
+DoctahPeppah Their is "Gods" and "Gods" you know. Gods with planetary destruction powers and universal Gods who can delete galaxies, not the same level, but for mortals they are all Gods because of their insane powers in compare to them. In God of War, they are island destructors (and really few of them). Deathwing is godlike in WoW, he's rage and destruction incarnate.
The last spell of Deathwing (the one we interrupted by killing him) was the last Cataclysm, world destruction level.
And nothing can kill Deathwing, no mortals, no Gods of his level (other aspects), only the Dragon Soul with all the powers of the other Aspects : God like creatures gave their powers (ALL their powers, even their immortality) just to charge a Godlike weapon able to kill the most powerful dragon ever. Well.
I don't really like Deathwing as a villain, because he's a little bit too powerful in my opinion : even Blizzard had hard time to find a way to kill him. And that was a giant plot hole (we stole the dragon soul from the past... Nozdormu wtf ?)
+Mister Sunlight It's not actually that much of a plot hole if you think about it.
Once the Dragon Soul was used and Nozdormu lost his power (along with the other aspects), it sort of got "snapped back" to were it would have been in history without the Aspect of Time's power holding it in the present. Thus, creating a stable time loop.
I am power INCARNATE!!!!!!!1!!!!
ALL WILL BURN
i started in cata and i loved it special how warrior was and how cool the gear of warrior was damn
Honestly, the only way someone would love Cata is if you started in Cata, so you got lucky :P
Gogito4 Reckstorm keebaaam
Gogito4
I started in vanilla and early cata when pve was hard was my favorite moment
TheWhiteFaction PVE as hard? It was basically BC PVE, just with 10 times more whiners.
Besides, I was talking about about Cata in general. That includes that year long Dragon Soul and that 4.1 that for some reason only put 2 dungeons, which, may I add, were the worst two dungeons to put ever.
13 37 Yeah i start playing in TBC and i have to say Cataclysm had best visual gear. But nothing will beat the warlock wings in TBC. Most epic gear blizzard made for players.
1:35 Best part
The most metal dragon in all of fantasy.
(in more than one sense of the word)
lord of the rings desolation of smaug will end in 15 minutes if deathwing is in the movie xD
I am fire........I am de...OH SHIT
lol smaug isn't even 1/3 the size of deathwing
8 months later...7 dislikes: Alexstrasza,Ysera,Nozdormu,Kalecgos,Thrall,Malfurion...and Arthas.
yeah you are right for those points indeed, I only wish he was included more during the questing other than the randomly flying over zones and killing people and the intro to Twilight Highlands for Horde. Though I did really enjoy his fight with Alextrasia in Twilight Highlands.
1:09 ITS WRETCHED KINGDOMS QUAKE BENEATH MY RAGE
ich werde ihn vermissen .....machs gut todesschwinge .... ;(((( i will miss him ...good bye deathwing ...;(((((((
0:23 It sounds like Mars, Bringer of War, by Gustav Holst... I love that reference !
Chen converts 3 ancient dragons.mp4
King Fedorah upvote this post for the good of future generations
King Fedorah all will burn beneath the shadow... of his aghanims.
Jolie musique bravo!!!!!
Best WoW song.
how could someone dislike this?
THEY SHALL BURN BY DEATHWING'S FIRE
brace yourself...
*deathwing farts - Auberdine gets crushed, Barrens get split, a lot of wild animals go nuts and crazy and shit*
Deathwing is coming!
Yep
I think what they failed to translate was how his madness was finally taking it's toll; it was way too downplayed as "the whispers of the old ones growing worse in recent years"; hence, he could still act as he did in Cata and it still made sense; he was losing what little vestiges of sanity were left in him by Cata.
Still, it was neat to see the dragon feared by ALL races in legend ravage the world.
I know I'm late to the party, but it actually did appear in the games, but only through quest texts, and a lot of people simply clicked accept and didn't read the texts
most lore in Shadow Highlands near Grim Batol (Cho'Galls Hideout) but Darkshore, Thousand Needles and especially Silithus and the deserts south of it had a lot of lore in the quest texts
you know what i'm thinking? Kratos VS Deathwing. THAT would be epic.
hell yeah! that would be the most amazing thing ever!
Impossibro.
And then Asura comes in with his Berserk form and kills them both! >:D
Deathwing would kill them with a single fireblast.
Smash button for 45 minutes.
Just one think, Illidan started working for the nagas during WotA and eventully wanted more power, which is why he was bannished, he was a threat and his brother saw that ... Also, his brother took the exile with him and Illidan got out from the emerald nightmare before his brother
*"I. AM. THE. CATACLYYYSSSMMM!!!"*
Why this music is nostalgic
PAIN..............AGONY....... So Epic
Yes, thats quite right. Of course players see it as months of farming and killing and so on, but the main story with the Rise of Deathwing to his fall is only at the most a few days long.
And All shall burn, Beneath the Shadow of my wings.
In my opinion Cataclysm was awesome!
they did the best they could for a video game experience, i mean final end fight with death wing was pretty epic by the scale of the fight
It's a shame his raid was really not that good... Firelands is where it's at.
Nevermind, Firelands is complete shit, Dragon Soul is better.
Kaisergun The Spine of Deathwing is the biggest pain in the prostate ever conceived by Blizzard. :(
And the concept was great but poorly executed.
So...Much...orange....
Yea it sounds just like his theme in HotS only no guitars
it's a good soundtrack for deathwing
wish if it could be longer.
I do believe the entire Cataclysm Xpac was only focused on a few days times I heard that it was basically 1 night and 1 day long. So Deathwing circling around Dragonblight might've been actually a few minutes or hours of time.
Like, literally!
@Admartimus
Lich King-created as puppet by Kil'Jaeden.
Deathwing-created as and Aspect and Guardian of Azeroth by the Titans themselves. Now empowered by the powers of the Old Gods aswell.
Now guess who's stronger.
They had to play this music in GOT S8E5.
@Rykanable Lich King - Arthas an ner'zhul together, being able to stop ur heart by just blinking
Deathwing - a crazed Aspect that has been blessed by the Titans, corrupted by the old Gods and now a puppet of them... and the fact that the LK is a puppet of Kil'Jaeden doesnt make him weak... Deathwing is though
@swcoco Dont forget he also has the power of the Corrupting Old Gods, aswell as the Titans
