The Scions were established as being a lot more capable than Random Schlub Adventurer to begin with. 2.0 starts with you WIELDING MAGIC ARMOR IN FRONT OF THE PROTOCRYSTAL. 1.0 opened with the world ending, and you walking down a street. There wasn't any indication it'd be any different than any other MMO with powerful characters - The NPC kills the Lich King, not you.
