The third and more than likely final season of the World of Warcraft: Dragonflight expansion is almost here. Guardians of the Dream will release on November 7 and bring with it an all-new zone—The Emerald Dream—a new faction, updates to Dragonriding, new character customizations, and a new public event. And just one week later the new raid, Amirdrassil, will open up for players to challenge. Inside the raid players will find new class tier sets as well as a new legendary weapon called Fyr’alath the Dream Render. Finally, alongside the raid, a brand new Mythic + Seasonal rotation will begin as well as a new PvP season with a new PvP Brawl Mode called Battleground Blitz.
Enter the Emerald Dream
The Emerald Dream has long been an important location in World of Warcraft. More specifically, the Emerald Dream is an ethereal dimension that is ever-shifting spirits and nature magic. The realm itself defies mortal perception of reality and is home to the Emerald Dragonlight and Ysera.
Here players will team up with The Dream Wardens, a new Renown faction, as they fight against Fyrakk and his minions. Blood Elves and Druids will get all-new character customization options to celebrate the update that focuses heavily on them both.
A new public event called Superbloom allows players to escort and protect a Wandering Ancient. If they succeed in doing so they will receive currencies and seeds as a reward. The seeds can than be planted to sprout an Emerald Bounty which is a greater reward for players.
Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope
The new raider will allow raiders to challenge nine bosses in Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope. In the end they will take on Fyrakk the Blazing, as he attempts to feast on the energies of Amirdrassil. The shadowflame dragon has been the big bad of the expansion, so it makes sense. Players who are able to take down Fyrakk will get a shot at a new legendary weapon, Fyr’alath the Dream Render. The weapon can be used by Death Knights, Paladins, and Warriors.
Keeping with the new changes, all three tiers of difficulties for the raid, Normal, Heroic, and Mythic, will all unlock on November 14. Wing 1 of the raid will also unlock on Raid Finder, with a new wing opening each successive week through December 12.
Guardians of the Dream goes live on November 7.
