For the Horde!



It doesn't get more epic than this cinematic shown at BLIZZCON this weekend; the battle between the Horde and Alliance is front and center with the new expansion:  Battle for Azeroth.  If this trailer doesn't get your blood pumping I don't know what will...or perhaps you are just Forsaken and have no blood at all.

From the information provided by the panels, the cinematic, and the expansion reveal we can look forward to numerous items for our transmogrification purposes.

PvP Inspired  

With the clash between us and them we can most likely expect some epic PvP set items to come along our way.  With the announcement that Blizzard would keep the current World Quest system in play it should be relatively easy to get PvP gear than past expansions.  Additionally, World PvP and other activities will make sure we can get some of the armor to make our Taurens look their best.

Troll-Theme

Since we are traveling to Troll islands we can probably expect some Troll-themed armor and weapons.  While this may be perfect for our buddies the Trolls; us Tauren may have a bit of work ahead of us (or perhaps not, Troll themed items are actually pretty sweet--just look at the current Tier for Shamans).

Speaking of Weapons...

Our Artifact Weapons that we have been working on for so long will be lost or given up in exchange for new weapons.  While we do not know for sure if we can keep the skins for later transmog we should rejoice over this news. This adds a whole new level to our transmogrification abilities and one that will be echoed here when the expansion comes out when I start to add weapons with the different sets created.

Highmountain Tauren

Add yet even more for us Taurens to be excited about!  Highmountain Taurens will become a playable race that we will be able to unlock.  This adds a totally new dimension for us all as well as some sweet, sweet ideas for transmogrification down the road.

You can get more information on the new expansion from around the web; but Icy Veins does a wonderful job listing out some of the information we gleaned from the Q&A.  You can check the list on their post Battle for Azeroth Live Q/A from Blizzcon 2017.
