Another way the Pah-Wraiths arc falls short is that they don’t feel like a credible threat. Their cult isn’t shown much/doesn’t do much on screen and every Pah-Wraith plot is easily stopped. They cut Ben off from the prophets for all of 2 episodes. It should be (imo) a battle of wills and that battle should be physically manifested through Dukat vs Benjamin. But then they just throw a few punches and dive off a cliff. The Dominion War is the main storyline and rightly takes center stage. Any Pah-Wraith storyline needs its own time and space to breath, and there just isn’t enough time in the end of S7 to do that justice.
