I can't wait for the lore in Legion. Been enjoying Mythic/HC raiding during every expansion, now looking forward to new PVP system and new raids.

I'm really excited that druid forms will finally have a different look! 

 

Fingers crossed about ability pruning though. Both sides of the debate have pretty convincing arguments about the issue. I hope Legion won't flop like Wod did.

I have been playing WoW for 10 years, now. and I have seen a lot of changes. some I liked, some I have not been so happy about. but I am glad that I have played because it has given me the chance to connect with some very good people. one of my fondest memories of wow came in BC, when 10 people from my guild all hit 70 within a few days of each other, and we all bought the same gryphon from honor hold. one of the guild members had his computer set up to record video, and we all flew in a "V" formation over Thralmar, and on the video he put flight of the Valkyries as a sound track, and posted it to one of the forums. I have made very real friends, many of whom I have met IRL because of wow, and I really look forward to the ability to build my artifact weapon, and customize it.  and having a whole host of new dungeons to experience with my friends. in the last few years, all 3 of my sons have started playing, 2 of which plan to be in legion. so spending time adventuring with them will be high on my list as well. as a wheelchair bound disabled vet, I do not get the chance to adventure as much as I used to so this is a great way to stay in touch with my wild side with my kids.

I`m always in when it comes to lore in WoW. I want to find out what happends to the king of Stormwind, Varian Wrynn, and Sylvannas   and how will the awakening of Illidan turn out.

I'm so excited for legion! I am so happy they are finally making Demon Hunters. The art team at blizzard really have outdone themselves the artifacts look amazing! My personal favorite is the Warswords of valor. The new dungeons and raids look outstanding especially the Maw of Souls. As a mount collector legion offers a wide variety of new and awesome mounts that i can't wait to get my hands on as the best moment in WoW for me was obtaining the Fiery Warhorse from karazhan, it was my first rare mount and it took me so long to get. Legion will also bring back many fond memories of questing in Hellfire Peninsula and having the fel reaver sneak up behind me.

 

I am really hyped for legion and i believe it will be a great expansion that will bring back a lot of great memories for older players and still be fun and enjoyable for newcomers. :)

I'm looking forward to the new transmog system. Nothing sucks more than farming for that one piece, and have it drop for all your other toons but the one who wants it. Oh, and the Demon Huters.

[Sar 0]

Still trying to decide between my current main, a hunter, or my new apt that I'm really enjoying playing atm, a holy priest.

Arrrrrrgh.

Can't wait for the new transmog system though!

[Sar 0]

Apt? ALT. Damn autocorrect and no apparent edit option?

I am very excited to see what's in store for us in Legion! The artifact system sounds pretty interesting as well as the class halls! I'm really just wanting more content. Really hoping to not have another year+ on a single patch like the last few expansions, but I believe in them! My opinion on WoW in it's current state is that I wish they did more with the expansion like a lot of the ideas back at Blizzcon. My fondest memories. Hmm, I missed being in a casual guild back in cata (my first expac) because a lot of the people I met were really nice and funny. I think the lore really hit me while I was in MoP, I just ABSOLUTELY loved the story in MoP. The story of the Thunder King/Zandalari as well as Siege of Org.

 

I don't expect to win at all, but giving it a shot! Happy anniversary Icy Veins!! Keep up the good work!

What excites me most about Legion are the new animations. Specifically, orc warriors. Attack animations have been pretty untouched for the most part. We'd get a new one here or there, like Colossus Smash, but now it looks like every ability will have a cool slash effect to it.

 

Another thing I've been dreaming of since first playing WoW, in an internet cafe, in Ukraine, for my lunch money, is every paladin wielding an Ashbringer. Ever since I was a little boy, I dreamed of seeing that glorious sword multiplied into the hands of every single retribution paladin. The beauty of that sword is overwhelming. How does the disc even stay in place? Magnets? How do those work any way? Any way, ASHBRINGER, YEE.

 

My favorite moment in wow history was in old Thousand Needles on the Emerald Dream server. I was in the guild chop city and we teamed up with the Crew to go bust some gnome RP event. When we got there, we ended up lining up like two big armies in the movies and yelled at each other for a bit. Naturally, we rolled over them but that was one moment where hardcore PvPers participated in RP, even slightly.

Can't wait for Legion. Started playing WoW with an IRL friend back in vanilla. We ended up getting in different guilds and playing the game in very different styles. I was more PVP oriented and went the path of Grand Marshals/Gladiators. He went down the road of hardcore Naxx/BC/Heroic level raiding.

 

10 Years later during WoD, we're both adults and we are reunited at a Halloween party and make a drunken pact to play on the same server. We now co-run a PvE/PVP guild with an amazing group of raiders/pvpers and enjoy all aspects of the game. Currently, many of the members are hybernating their WoW toons until Legion comes out. Then we will be back at it again, raiding, pvping, holding other random guild events, and laughing the entire time from the hilarious team speak conversations. Truly the funnest era of my WoW "career" and I can't wait for Legion to make it even better.

 

Oh and also Demon Hunters. Big Wc3 fan.

I look forward to change.  Its felt like the same game for years.  For the first time in 9 yrs I am actually working to have 1 of each class and spec.  Everything seems a little up in the air still which changes are in stone and which will not be carried through.  For the first time in 9 yrs I just started PVPing.  The gearing system seems interesting.  I feel it will also put me on a more level playing field to some degree with experienced players.  They will have to adapt to the changes where as I will just learn them.  Expansions get old, doing the same things over and over.  The mobility of demon hunter seems pretty amazing as well.  I know a lot of people who left to never return.  Though with this melee class they have said they will return and I will stay/remain.

​Simply put change is good.  People are complaining about pruning and different things.  However, WOD, WOLK, CATA, BC things get old.  With the new changes looking forward to PVP, the new class and feel.  I want wow to be good, fun - lots of playing and competitive.  Legion seems like it will make this difference.  As said, it is cool too now that I am making one of each toon.  This way I am ready to go!  Which ever class, I am good.  Legion will either make or break me or a lot of people.  I hope it makes and retains me.

_{I really want to try the new pvp talent system, I have thought for ages they should do something like this!}

Super excited for a new tanking class!  I really love tanking, so getting in and learning how to play a Vengeance DH sounds really fun!

[Whoof 0]

I'm really looking forward to see the new class-centered experience as well as the new Hunter and how Blizzard will have addressed "dying guilds" and quitting raiders.

[ddmachine 0]

I'm really excited for legion, from what I have seen so far artifacts look like they're gonna be awesome and even though I'm not much of a pvper I will probably start in legion as well because of all the changes to pvp.

I stopped raiding in WoD because I was quite burned out but I'm looking to get back to raiding in legion.

Also looking forward to the Unholy dk changes, the more pets the better, and who could forget the demon hunters... I'm just really excited for legion altogether.

Thanks for doing this giveaway and good luck everyone ^^

I can't wait to play an Avenger's Shield based Prot Paladin. I'll go full on Captain America on Gul'dan.

[balbeza 0]

I'm looking forward to Demon Hunters. And hoping Blizz shows elemental shamans a little love this expansion

[deminesu 0]

im really excited for the new lore and the Artifact ofc. But if i had to choose the best part for me, It is for sure the theme of the expansion with the mix of night elven/legion. Its for sure a fine break from the orcish stuff we had for some time now. As a nelf fan, one of my best memories were in tbc when I started wow for the first time and entered Ashenvale for the first time and heard the music. And I can not forget aswell when i entered the dark portal for the first time . the memories . So honestly have to say that this is the best thing that could happen to me.(dalaran hype).

[Logan3333 0]

Oooooh! I'm really looking forward to the new raids and dungeons. Also the artifact weapons and new PvP system looks pretty cool! Overall I think this expansion will be great! Legion questing zones are also looking pretty interesting as well!

[bobbycvi 0]

I can hardly wait to play the brewmaster and see the artifact quests. Maybe i will go into PVP after we finish the content in Legion :). And hopefully the switch between specs will be in Legion <3.

[Jagabomb 0]

I'm really looking forward to using the new artifact weapons. The idea of people able to farm and increase the power of the weapon as well as earn new skins is very intriguing. However I am very worried that these weapons might lock us into playing 1 spec. I am confident that blizzard will come up with a way to let us switch efficiently, but it is a worry of mine.

Oh, wow!  Hmm...  I am pretty stoked about Legion and it can't come soon enough!  I am looking forward to being able to essentially DPS heal on my Disc priest and checking out the new PVP system, it seems like a huge step up from what it is currently.  I mainly PVP and just dabble in PVE and the new talent system for PVP seems like it is going to make the game more balanced and fun.  The new shadow spec looks like it will be very interesting as well, I like how it ties in bits of the old gods.  I think what I am MOST excited for is the addition of tri-spec and the new "transmog toybox" so to speak, it's going to free up so much bag space!!  The feral Legendary weapon is going to be super awesome as well.  Druid is probably my second favorite class.  And DEMON HUNTERS!  I think they will be my favorite melee class!  I am SO excited to check them out!

 

As for my most memorable moments, I have a few in mind.  Solo taming Deth'tilac on my hunter by constantly sacrificing my pet and praying no one got me killed, took me about an hour but I did it ALL ALONE!  *Proud*  

I've also met most of my now RL friends through wow, including my boyfriend.  WoW, hooking people up since launch lol.  

I had to chase Deathwing down to get my "Stood in the Fire" achievement back when he would randomly fly around and murder people, because he kept flying away from me and I almost didn't catch him... Which awakens my nostalgia for the old Darkshore with the huge dock and all of the ports... I loved that place so much.  Deathwing WHY!!!!

My favorite story arc so far is the further development of Wrynn's compassion as well as Anduin's during MoP.  I'm a sucker for the peace treaties and that just holds a special place in my heart.  But my absolute FAVORITE quest line in the game was questing with Lunk.  It was so nice to do quests without having to murder people.  I love Lunk.

*Edited to add:  When I got my Ashes of A'lar I tried to vendor it thinking it was a trinket! =X  I was like "Why can't I sell thi---OOOOOMMMMGGGGGGG"  My most coveted mount!

 

Furthermore I want to thank you, and wish you a happy anniversary!  Any time I wonder about a new class, or want to play my class better this is where I turn.  Keep up the great work, guys!  I wish you many more great years!

I'm personally looking forward to focusing on one hero of mine throughout an expansion instead of the alt army we had in WoD.

 

It'll be a nice change to really feel involved in our character again similar to what we had in Vanilla/BC. I loved feeling powerful and important but not TOO important in BC on my warlock, i really enjoyed having crafts that so many people didn't have so they had to come to me to get the item made, which made me feel involved in the wow world.

 

I've been playing WoW since day 1 of vanilla, short breaks here and there during Wrath, and I missed most of MoP.

 

Once i saw the videos on people on legion, i ran out and updated my computer so it is ready to rumble come legion to raid on ultra settings with 100fps!
