Ah, Khadgar is now leading, so I guess it's Horde safe. Also, apparently Jaina is very pissed off and has left to "somewhere".
Which makes me wonder if she'll be a raid boss.

Ooo! We get to go into the Emerald Nightmare. That could mean all sorts of awesome things for pets :)

As someone who primarily plays Tauren, I hope our characters have access to those horns..er...antlers?

Artifacts are spec based-interesting, though I bet that will be frustrating for people who play dual spec.

And they seem to have what amounts to a talent tree for the weapon.

Demon hunters were never really a ranged class in lore.....ever. So that's likely why.

The zones look so amazing. Yes that's one of the things I'm most excited about right now, lol. I'm just glad we're finally getting some gorgeous forest zones like Stormheim. That's one of the reasons I was so in love with Wrath - some of the zones there were absolutely gorgeous and totally my style. Grizzly hills is still my #1 with Howling Fjord a close second.

Very nice that Night elves will finally be getting some of the spotlight.

Of course as a mount hoarder the entire time I'm thinking of what new mounts we could get. New hippogryphs and sabers (hopefully for horde too!) seem likely. But maybe we'll finally get some elk mounts? Or even a nicer emerald drake since we'll be dealing with the Emerald nightmare/dream.

And I agree I want those antlers for tauren.

..So far this seems like it'll be much more to my liking than WoD was.

Totally agree Lupen! For once, the Kaldorei are getting some love that ISNT in a damn book.

I don't think WoD could end soon enough :/ I couldn't stomach logging on as it was, now the hype for this expansion is making it even harder lol.

Agreed. WoD was interesting-but felt just boring for me.

If it makes you feel better, Lupen, I've been occupying my time with SWTOR rather than WoW. As a raider, I'm burnt out.

So PvP is getting its own talent tree?

Does that mean talents will be more balanced for PvE now?
