Warcraft 3 Draenei look nothing like WoW Draenei

[Littledude]

I was playing the Warcraft 3 expansion The Frozen Throne when you go to outland with the Naga and I was wondering why the Draenei look absolutly nothhing like the Dranei of WoW they don't even have the same culture. In Warcraft 3 they are more like rogues but in WoW they are Priests, Paladins, and Magi mostly. They look more like the broken and the lost ones than the WoW draenei. Is there any explanation of this or did the makers of WoW decide to change it up.

Oh wait looking at that it says Race: Broken Draenei, well there's the answer

If you play Warcraft 3 Reign of Choas, you will notice that Lord Arcimonde looks like the Dren you play as in WoW. The are pretty much a divided race.

Devolution.

Draenei were once known as the Eredar. Sargeras came to their home world of Argos to recruit the Eredar. Two groups followed Sargeras and become known as the Man'ari (to the Draenei at least), led by Archimonde and Kil'jaeden. The other group become known as the Draenei, the exiled, led by Valen.

The Draenei in WC3 are the result of the fel magic from the Burning Legion. Basically, the Burning Legion found the Draenei after they fled, gave fel magic to the Orcs (turning them green), and had them ravage their homeworld and almost destroy the Draenei. The land, now tainted with fel magic, slowly turned some of the Draenei. Some became Broken, and others completely turned into the Lost Ones.

Yay lore. :D

Well it's obvious that cultures would change in the time gap between wow and wc3

This is why I'm actually waiting for the WoW movie, hopefully it'll be WoW accurate and not some made up stuff. I want to learn the back story without spending hours playing a boring game.

Read the books, if you don't mind reading.

Didn't the Draenei shaman learn from the untainted orcs on Draenor, before it became Outland?
