I have always enjoyed exploring new content specifically the PvE scene and have really enjoyed CM's and raiding. In general in Legion i'm looking forward the most to the surge of old friends (both irl and ingame) coming back to play and have fun with all the new content. Pure content wise the revamped CM's + the new raids are looking pretty cool and i'm itching to test them ^_^

 

Sorry for my english, it isn't my first language :3

where to start? Im excited about Legion but more like a form of nostalgia, since i really want to see all the old players come back to the game. I've been playing WoW non stop for the last 10 years and i've seen people come and go, mostly online friends, and most of the time i agreed with they reason they left, but my love for the game was greater(?) i think so i kept playing. I've been hardcore raiding , getting decent ranks in US on progression atleast with our guild (10-15 US) and i think that all Mythic raiders can agree right now that what we are most hoping for is for Blizzard dev team to hear us back again, since honestly it felt like they stop hearing our complains (from Mythic raiders) a long time ago.Well all that and of course the Demon hunter, I hope that with this expansion they get all the people that left back and that we all can play like we used to before Cata.Of course thanks to Icy Veins for the Oportuniy, since this was the webpage that Helped me increase my skills as a raider when I had some doubts about new classes or specs. Thank you

The main thing I'm excited for in Legion is seeing where the story takes this game next. While Warlords was used to bring Gul'dan back into the fold and begin the third Burning Legion invasion, I'm curious to see who or what leads us into the expansion after Legion. The arrival of Sargeras? Perhaps the return of Azshara? Maybe N'Zoth decides to reign terror from the depths of Azeroth? Interesting times are ahead for the denizens of Azeroth.

 

As for my favorite World of Warcraft memory it might be playing the game for the first time on Christmas Day 2004. I created a Gnome Mage named Gitchez on the Blackhand server. Nothing beats logging into my character and seeing tons of brand new faces running around the Dwarf starting zone learning the game just like me. I remember the trolls in that zone being such a pain to kill. Grabbing Felix's tools from those small Troll camps was quite a nightmare. Not to mention having to fight through the Frostmane Cave. Challenging, painful, but fun.

Looking forward to working on PVP as well as arena, which were my favorite parts of the current game. Love the new animations!

​I love playing WoW. my favorite expansion was Mists of Pandaria but I think that Legion will totally blow it out of the water for me. I am most excited for things such as the great new mounts like the demon hunter mount also the demon hunter gameplay looks super cool and I love being able to wield glaives and also the new transmogrification system. Also in legion I am ready to be able to explore different areas at any level on different characters. I would love to see a dance studio but that's not a big thing. In Warlords of Draenor my favorite thing was the  garrison and I loved the new starting zone. My favorite thing to do in wow is PvP and collecting all my favorite mounts and especially doing PvP to get more mounts. Thank you and I would love to get a beta key. I applied for Draenor beta but I did not get it but I'm super excited. Thank you for this opportunity.

I hope the emphasis on classes brings back some of the special feel (lore and otherwise) each class had. Over the years class identity though mechanics has become diluted in an effort to have balance. This is understandable, but maybe the new infusion of class lore will make it exciting again to be playing a specific class. If they can't give everyone unique snowflake abilities, maybe they can create enough lore to make what we do have interesting again!

 

Additionally, I am excited to get out of our garrisons and spend time in class halls. There was a time where you knew the best people of your class on your server and people of a certain class would have their own community. My hope is that the class halls will bring some of that feeling back!

 

I want Legion to be good.  WoD has left so much to be desired for me personally.

I think that Legion is very interesting.WoD was, too but it fell off very quick. I hope that Legion won't share the same fate and there are some reasons why I think that Legion will be better.First of all we have this massive class overhaul.We have also some new mechanics for Dungeons and challenge Modes.Also there is so much potential with the Artifact weapons. These are also the things I'm looking forward to the most. Sincere Kubi

Well, I think that I'm a bit worried about Legion. I remember getting extremely hyped for WoD, and we all know what a let down that has been outside of raiding. I miss the ability to have something to do other than raid, and I hope that Legion fixes that. I want to enjoy this game again, the way that I used to! With that being said, my fondest WoW memory has to be the first time I hit max level. When I first started playing, I could only play on my buddy's account, and it was during Vanilla. I had the hardest time leveling up, but I remember thinking that every single thing I did was beyond exciting. Once I finally was able to get my own account, I could finally level up on my own, and it took me FOREVER. However, it was so extremely rewarding once I hit max level, and I had some friends over at the time who ended up freaking out with me, and we had a bit of a party afterwards, and it's just something I'll never forget. This game has done so much for me in and outside of the game, and I just love it. I truly love this game. I hope to be able to play in the Legion beta, but I know I'll still play and enjoy Legion in some way if I don't. Thanks for the opportunity though. This is really cool of you guys. Icy-Veins has been my go to source for information for one of my many, many alts, and I appreciate everything you guys do here, and I hope it continues for years to come. Cheers.

I've been watching wow videos and stream for almost a year now, Its always a game i was interested in but never wanted to invest the money in. However since it's my senior year and i'll be out into the world and have a lot of time on my hand i've finally decided that it's time to play WoW and see if the hype is worth it. So here is to hoping for a key so I don't spend nearly $75 just to find out I don't like WoW

What I look forward to the most in Legion are the brand new animations for melee classes. 12 years of seeing the same old weapon swings was beginning to take its toll on me. What I have personally enjoyed the most in past expansions was the introduction of Heroic and Mythic difficulty raids, and the addition of LFG during The Burning Crusade. I put in many hours during that expansion trying to find groups for Heroic Shadows Labs and Arcatraz on my holy pally

For me it'll be the new Transmogsystem. Some old forgotten twinks who have unique items like for example a shield from Vanilla Naxxramas. Logging onto all of my Chars and unlocking the stuff, cleaning up my Bankspace and so on. Im also looking forward to the reworked PvP System Combined with all the Class Changes (Oh and don't forget being able to switch to every spec without having to visit the class trainer and re-do your Actionbars).
All in all it'll feel new and fresh, like it should.

Personally I love the lore in WoW, so taking the fight between Azeroth and the Legion seems like an amazing way to create some story within the game. Along with the story, I've always enjoyed raiding with friends and relatives so with this upcoming expansion it is yet another opportunity to continue progressing as a guild into new fun content :D

I really loved the iconic feel of the DK when first started playing WoW. It looks like Legion will have a similar feeling. A lot of the alpha content I've seen is looking good

The main things I'm looking forward to with Legion are the class updates and artifact weapons. Normally I'm a person who only plays 1 or 2 characters over the course of an expansion, but with Legion it looks like I'll be needing to level tons of alts for all of that juicy class and artifact lore!

 

My favourite memory is probably during Naxx 25 progression in wrath. While we were fighting Sapphiron we got to the air phase, and our paladin tank used the brew from the brew of the month club that freezes you in a block of ice. He shouted at our guild leader (who was a healer) to hide behind him to be safe from the ice bomb, and when they both died and the guild leader let out a loud "WTF" in vent, the whole guild burst out laughing and we wiped.

My favorite memory from WoW, was back in vanilla when first hit level 60 on my paladin.

I'm excited to see if Blizzard will be able to get non instanced, world content right in legion. It's something i missed from previous expansions. The world felt alive, and in WoD it just feels like we're only in our garrisons.

I am really looking forward to seeing how legion brings players back together after Garrisons kept everyone in their own little world for most of their "down time"

 

I very excited to see how the Demon Hunter fits in to Mythic raiding as well! So pumped, thanks for giving back to the community for the past 5 years!

The thing i'm looking forward the most is the pvp honour system, i don't do bgs very often because i'm always and don't find it very fun. The thing i liked the most previously would be arena in burning crusade for sure

What i look foward too in Legion, hrm, i am so hyped about Legion atm. I am especially very hyped for the artifact system, it kinda reminds me of the old talent tree. I am also looking foward to all the new spells, and animations, like the new guardian of the ancient kings, it looks so awesome. Also looking foward to Dalaran, the pvp system, and a lot more. And last but not least, the transmog system. :D i will finaly get space in my bank, and i don't know what i am going to use my void storage for anymore, lol. And the new ach's that comes with the wardrobe looks interesting too. I will definitely go for the fabulous title. 
What i enjoyed in the past. Where do i start. Lets begin with wotlk, (where i started playing) the feeling of being a new player in a whole new world was amazing. I also enjoyed the old talent trees and the emblem currency in wotlk. The raid i enjoyed the most was Ulduar, it was so mythical and full of secrets.
I am looking foward to Legion and i can't wait till it launches! =)

There really isn't a single thing I'm specifically looking forward to Legion.  I just want all of it, and as quickly as possible (keeping quality in mind, of course).  New expansions are always such a rush. Ever since TBC released I've taken the week following release off as vacation time.  I have lots of characters, and I don't rush, but my entire family plays the living hell out of a new expansion for about 10 days before they all return to work, school and normal life complaining that they didn't have enough time. It's a tradition at this point. ;)  New animations, revamped specs, class halls, artifacts, etc, etc, etc.   I'll take all of it.

The majority of my time in wow has been spent pvp'ing and I can't wait to try the new prestige and honor systems. I also would like to try to pve with the same toon and see how much different it is.

      Today, we release our Path of Exile site. It is not entirely finished yet, but the content is there and we felt comfortable sharing it with Path of Exile players from our current audience.
      This is a project that we have been working on for quite some time (so nothing to do with the recent Diablo announcements or lack thereof). We developed a CMS from the ground up, using our many years of experience with Icy Veins as a basis for the various features we required on the publishing side of the site. We also added things such as a proper item database or a dev tracker. These are things we can't have on Icy Veins, because the tech the site is running on would not permit it. Hopefully, one day we can run Icy Veins on our new tech and do all these things, if we feel like it.
      As I was saying above, the site is not 100% ready, but it is very close in terms of features. We worked hard in the past two weeks to fix all major bugs, so that end users can have a smooth experience, and we have enough content to cover the currently most popular builds. So we are waiting for your feedback!

      Currently you will find the following things on the site: guides and news for Path of Exile, an item database (still missing out a couple of base items), a dev tracker (Official Forums + Twitter + Reddit), and of course forums where people can discuss about that game.
      Our guide offering is currently as follows:
      Triple Herald Blade Vortex Elementalist Build Arc Mines Saboteur Build Guide Glacial Cascade Mines Saboteur Build Guide Ancestral Warchief Ascendant Build Guide Ascendant Hit Elemental Build Guide Aurabot Ascendant, 8 Auras Build Guide The Cleave Ascendant Build Guide Herald of Agony Occultist Build Guide Frostbolt/Glacial Cascade Totems Hierophant Build Guide Uber Labyrinth Farmer Juggernaut Build Guide Rain of Arrows Deadeye Build Guide Tornado Shot Deadeye Build Guide The Baron Zombies/Skeletons Necromancer Build Guide Toxic Rain Pathfinder Build Blade Flurry Gladiator Build Guide Spectral Throw Raider Build Guide Cyclone Slayer Build Guide We also have a beginner guide for fresh exiles.
      With all that said, we're hoping to see you on that new website and are looking forward to your comments!
      Please welcome our newest website on Path of Exile!
