  1. Battle for Azeroth: Easy selection here. The Zandalari Trolls are the main focus for the Horde storyline, they get their own continent, their own capital city, several dungeons and a raid where they are the focus.
  2. Classic: Several zones feature Trolls in them. A troll raid in Zul'Gurub. Troll themed dungeons in Zul'Farrak and Sunken Temple, and what kinda seen as an outdoor Troll "raid" in the Hinterlands.
  3. Midnight: Entire Troll zone in Zul'Aman 2. They play a large part in the story and are getting their own themed patch on Tuesday.
  4. Cataclysm: Trolls once again have some focus in redone zones (RIP happy dancing Troll village), and a Troll patch with redone Zul'Gurub and Zul'Aman.
  5. Wrath: Another Troll dedicated zone in Zul'Drak. Two Troll dungeons and (I believe) a cut Troll raid.
  6. Mists of Pandaria: Trolls play a part in the Thunder King questline and patch. 3 Troll bosses in Throne of Thunder, and a legendarily hard world boss. Vol'jin questline to undermine Garrosh as well.
  7. Burning Crusade: Troll raid in Zul'Aman. Aside from that not a lot of content for them unsurprisingly, but there is a Troll base in Zangarmarsh.
  8. Shadowlands: Part of the Ardenweald questline involves Mueh'zala and Bwonsamdi, and there's a semi-Troll themed dungeon in De Other Side, but that's it. And even De Other Side was only partially Troll themed (Disappointing, should've been its own zone).
  9. Dragonflight: Darkspear Trolls got their heritage armor, that's all I can think of.
  10. Warlords of Draenor: Vol'jin shows up a few times, reminds us that he was technically Warchief at some point, and then dies in the Legion prepatch.
  11. Legion: As stated above, Vol'jin shows up and dies in the prepatch. The only other thing I can think of is the Arms Warrior artifact weapon scares Troll NPCs?
  12. The War Within: Not a single Troll theme in this expansion I can think of. I think originally in Azhj-Kahet, Talanji played a role in the black blood story, but was switched to Orweyna in a later build.

And we will likely get MORE in The Last Titan since we will return to Zul'Drak in some capacity.
