Just a thought (Haurchefant and Shiva)

Still think Moenbryda is the only one that kicked the bucket that actually got shit done and a damn shame too. Furthermore I dislike pointless deaths. Ysayle and Haurchefant didn't deserve that yet they will backpedal no problem with the loli Sultana. Disconcerting. Kinda why I take very little of that seriously.

I think one draw of Greystone was they literally used him as their reasoning why PLD can't block magic. Insult to injury IMO.

Of all the character that should have stayed dead it was Nanamo it was the big ended to ARR and then in the expansion they just hit the reset button the whole think with a quick quest. What was the point of all the drama? Just a convoluted way for the Scions to "die"? We know they didn't die too I guess they needed characters to die to make up for that in HW. Haurchefant was probably the most emotional one to choose given how long he's been in the story if you read the quest text and he doesn't have some sort of plot armour like those more involved with the WoL. Ysayle I guess fell under that catagory too and that's a shame because she had a good character arc starting as an enemy and somebody else with the echo who had her own quest. They could have done a lot more with her I think after she saw the mistakes she made and wanted to set things right. Would have been interesting for They seem like they feel they have to create characters to die for drama now because they don't want to kill off some others. I honestly wished after the whole ARR ending drama that we had to rebuild the Scions instead of just having them find some deus ex magic to save them. Having a new group in HW felt fresh then they use them as sacrificial drama lambs so they can justify bringing the original group back.

Would have liked to see Ysayle become a Scion and get some redemption where Ishgard and her need to learn to forget the past and accept each other and she later does something to redeem herself much like the whole Dragon saving a little girl thing.
