    Yeah the only other antagonist is the Decatriarch, otherwise 10.3 would need a Keeper/Titan/Watcher antagonist.
    Is an Old God entirely out of the question?(Provided 10.3 exists)

    Unless the legendary is some weapon that every class can use somehow, it's gonna be a boring cape or hat. I'm guessing it will have fun Druidic effects to make up for it.

    I don't think it's a stream. Based on the announcement video on twitter, it sounds like it's just going to be a video they will upload. If it WAS a stream, it should have been visible by now on their YouTube channel - which there is no indication of any stream.

    Weapons always feel meaningful and iconic. The cloaks were fun to look at but at the end of the day they were just procs weren't they?
    And the rings.. I can't even remember what the WoD rings did.
    The ring gave an increasingly large stat buff as you kept upgrading it. Eventually it become a proc that activated for everyone at the same time, gave flat DPS increases, and exploded at the end similar to Augvokers Breath of Eons.

    Yeah, I'm expecting something like this. They also teased Alexstrasza turning on Tyr somehow, and she doesn't really feel like her character arc is anywhere near finished, so I'm expecting the final act to focus on her taking Vyranoth's side against Tyr.

    Can't say for sure what actually starts that conflict yet, but I can easily see him trying to force unwanted changes to "help" dragonkind. Or objecting to stuff they're doing now, like Nozdormu's new willingness to work with the Infinites and tweak the timeline.

    There is a reason: because the Shadowlands were a very loosely defined unknown place with very little firmly established. The Emerald Dream has been a continuously well establish locale that is seen all over the place in lore, in books, in quests, etc. continually depicted in a very specific and defined way. We have been inside it multiple times, we have been to the very center of it, we have fought and defeated its primary threat.

    It's not some unknown, unexplored realm--it's a thoroughly understood place we (and other characters) have been all over, whose only real big mystery is "how did it start and what was its original purpose". There's nothing to re-imagine. It's like deciding that the Firelands or Skywall can be re-imagined even though we've been in them and to their most important places already.

    It's one thing for Argus, which is an entire planet that could have had who knows what on it, or Ny'alotha which until its patch could have been literally anything anywhere. It's another thing for a place we've been to numerous times that's well documented across two decades in all sorts of different media.

    Okay - my final-FINAL_real.jpg prediction!

    • We'll get a video on YouTube, with the community manager from yesterday's teaser (forgot her name) seated in front of a couple of developers.
    • They'll briefly explain what we're doing, and show us a cinematic trailer. It shows Fyrakk assaulting the Dream, and a sweeping view of the new World Tree.
    • Guardians of the Dream hits PTR tonight.
    • Emerald Dream zone with the World Tree as the highlight. Parts of the zone are set ablaze. It's not all green.
    • Some characters we'll see include Elune (in some form), Ysera, Merithra, Fyrakk, Vyranoth, Alexstrasza, Cenarius, Shandris, Tyrande, and of course a bunch of familiar characters and creatures associated with Life, the Green flight, and Night Elves.
    • The raid is a 12 boss raid set within the World Tree. Defense of Amirdrassil.
    • Druid class for all races, with generic Emerald Dream forms.
    • We'll see the tier set concept art tonight, as well as the legendary item and some weaponry.
    • There will be updates to professions, new open world events, a new renorn track, PvP season, M+ dungeon pool, etc.
    • There will be a new gameplay feature on a similar scale as the ones we got in Zereth Mortis.
    • There will be some kind of item upgrade or reforging system.
    • There will be an additional surprise feature akin to the Brawler's Guild, Mage Tower, or similar.
    • New customisaiton options for some races.
    • Vinter Veil updates.

    Oh that sounds fun. Is that how mages cheesed HFC or was that a different piece of equipment?

    It sure was. You had the tanks pull half the raid, activate the proc, then run to the boss to kill it in one hit.

    Or it could have been because Arcane mages were busted in HFC. The set bonuses in that raid were easily the strongest we have ever had in the game, and I faintly remember Arcane mages were especially good with infinitely stacking haste buffs.

    My predictions:
    - Paladins and/or druids for all races. Paladins because it's been set up with Travard in 10.1.7. Druids because it would just be fun and cool if they had all druid forms for the new races done and dusted for the largely Druid centric patch/zone/raid.
    - Some form of class customization for Druids, akin to Warlock's green fire. Maybe Shaman visual options to use the new elemental magics we've seen since prepatch.
    - Legendary will be a weapon.
    - IDK much about raids, but I'll be different and say the raid will be 13 bosses.
    - Really wild take: a new/reworked support spec for a class.
