I'm mostly looking forward to a fresh set of enemies. I'm sick of Orcs, much like everyone else. It felt mediocre at best. I've fought dragons, so why am I worried about a few Orcs?

 

In addition, I'm most likely going to switch which class I main in Legion with so many specs being reimagined. Can't wait to see what the future holds!

I would first of say that I loved and played world of warcraft ever since 2004 and fell in love with it. I remember some of vanilla WOW. hard leveling, difficult dungeons, no one had a clue on how to play their class. But I am really looking forward to playing legion. like new animations, revamped classes which looks amazing, new dungeons, new pvp prestige leveling system, new mythic raids, easier to play the classes, new artifact weapons, and especially demon hunters are going to added.I would love to play the new expansion.

I'm hyped for nearly everything I've seen in Legion Alpha videos on YouTube, even professions look interesting and in WoD I never wanted to do them, but now herbalism looks amazing. Probably the things I'm most excited for are the demonology rework (omg all those demons) and Demon Hunters. I really like the demon-kind of stuff and fel green fire. (Green's my favourite colour). I've been wanting to get into the alpha just like anyone else, and that's not changing.

I look forward to the new continent, new dungeons, new raids, and new battle pet challenges.I am particularly excited about the new transmog features..

My favorite moment in my world of Warcraft history...

I started playing around July of 2007 a few months before Wrath of the Lich King came out. By the time Wrath came out, I had raided Karazhan a few times and understood the game, but Wrath was the first real expansion that I got to see from the beginning, so that time was really the best for me.

I was in a great guild, decent at raiding and having a good time. One of our officers known as GeneralDoom started organizing server wide For the Horde raids.

He would enlist the help of several guildees and we would drum up interest in trade chat and get a full 40 people for a group. He had planned out his route in advance to lead the group in our attacks on the leaders in Stormwind, Ironforge, Darnassus and Exodar, but he would not reveal the exact order in case there were alliance spies that had infiltrated the raid to log off and report our movements to the Alliance.

He had a list of rules for everyone to follow so as to keep people focused on the task and to stick together so we could not be picked off by Alliance players on the way.

We would enter each city one at a time basically all stacked together, a virtually invincible army that would waltz into Alliance cities, mostly ignoring enemies until we reached our target, and take out the enemy leader in his throne room quickly and efficiently.

We usually ended our conquest in either Stormwind or Ironforge, intentionally setting up a big final confrontation. Because by the time you have raised 3 Alliance cities, the Alliance have taken notice and are preparing a counterattack in the fourth city where they know you are destined to attack.

Undeterred by countermeasures, but knowing we had to run more tightly and smartly, we would enter the fourth city, deal with any Alliance players we encountered, and take out the king.

After killing the king, rather than exit or hearth, we went straight for the auction house and bank, killed all NPC auctioneers and bankers, and prepared to camp these spots for as long as we could, defending our conquests for as long as half an hour before enough Alliance could get organized enough to stop us and kill enough of us to end our conquest.

But the best of these runs had a final chapter.

After we were seven out of Stormwind, our final city, our raid leader would log on to his Alliance "spy" character and proceed to use the Alliance trade channel to drum up support for a For the Alliance counterattack on the Horde cities.

When this worked, he was able to get several alliance players to successfully form a group to attack our cities. Because he was still in voice chat with our raid, he would report the Alliance raid's movements to us.

So when the Alliance raid got to Orgrimmar or Silvermoon, they would enter the city, met with little to no resistance, until they finally got to the throne room. Here they would be met by the full force of our 40-man raid plus others in the city aiding us. Animation slowed down, people's game crashed, and many alliance died very quick deaths.

Congratulations on 5 years, Icy Veins.

Thanks for giving out Legion beta keys.

The thing I am most excited for is to level up my alts and get a few different artifacts because they seem pretty interesting and hopefully its a nice new mechanic :)

 

What I enjoyed most playing in WotLK was when all my real life friends started their new accounts and I got to level with them because WoW was so popular at that time. People were so excited for fresh content with a huge player base, and I hope maybe Legion can draw a few more of my buddies back into the game for another expansion to relive those old days chatting in vent all night trying to gear alts :)

I've been with WoW since the middle of "vanilla" and must say that this is the expansion that has brought me the most excitement from what I have seen from alpha videos and read.

The artifact weapons intrigue, with the lure of new shininess as well as the opportunity to provide endgame entertainment.

Chosing a character to main for the expansion hasn't been this difficult before either ^^

The changes I hope, are bringing a breath of fresh air to a lot of the characters.

A lot of the characters that I don't play seem to have gotten some very interesting changes which make me want to really get in there and have a go again ^^

Hopefully all the changes will reawaken the urge to raid again, my guild has skipped raiding in WoD and that is something that we do long to get back to, but current content just makes us all feel urgh.

Plus having a new class to play is always fun ^^

Demon hunters have an intriguing look to them, even if it does feel like they've used it as a gimmick to get players to return Oo

In all, I have a lot of hopes riding on this expac ^^

Cannot wait to try it out!! =D

There are some things that I'm very excited for. The class changes to the Death Knight are especially noteworthy to me. I'm also looking forward to taking by my Mage and paladin into battle as soon as possible. I can't wait to see the new zones and instances, and I'm sure my guild will once again take realm first for all raids.

Now let's address the concerns. I'm not sure how to feel about the artifact weapons. Is everyone going to be running around with the same weapon? Or are there going to be options to customize them?

Will there be a lack of a legendary weapon or armor piece because of the focus on artifacts? How will all of these this tie in to raid progression? There are quite a few questions left unanswered, but I have faith that at the very least, this expansion will be better than WoD and all the garrison nonsense.

When a game, transformed into a kind of culture, and finally become a group of people's feelings, which shows that we have grown up.Ten years in the world have been with us young frivolous, wanton vent strength from the young, victory to hoarse roar, failed to be angry roar.The world did not hesitate to give us each former wower, colorful game experience, both the alliance or Horde is a warrior or mage, we always in the world to find their goals, and work hard.And, not only is the game itself, with the accumulation of time, many of us from playmates variable to friends, friends, even for the sake of many Shenxianjuanlv.The world is not just a game so simple, after we substituted the myriad emotions and experiences, the world has become the each of us wower life is an integral part of. Many of the old game player also tried to pull in the new game player, and now do not play well, but to our memories, let us try again. However, I remember that two days before I find my brother to play together, he played fast asleep, my own play tired ~ this kind of thing is not a two times of. Sincerely hope that the world of Warcraft can be better and better, I do not have the achievements of the column "World of Warcraft ten anniversary" and there will be thirty, twenty.

Most excited for the new Lore and Artifact Weapon system. I'm looking forward to exploring the Broken Isles and uncovering the Pillars of Creation and hopefully getting a glimpse of Sargeras Or the Avatar.

 

The previous expansion The Burning Crusade was my favorite expansion and I am prepared to face the legion again!

( Sorry for my english.) To me, all the extiension will be awesome i hope. Legion is a wonderfull journey about the story of warcraft : we gonna see very important place : Surama, the broken shore, maybe the sargeras tomb. We have allready see there place in books or other game (Warcraft III the frozen thrones ) but never in WoW. Others elements, that we have never see : Keeper Odyn, the Hall of Valor, the new "trog". And all the quest about artifacts seens epic. We gonna see Azshara too, i was sure she was not dead. The demon hunter ... In warcraft III that was a beautifull hearo about the nightelf, we have seen them in the black temple at BC now we gonna play them ... what a wonderfull world ? Blizzad made my dream reality :D

When I was a wee little boy, I played WoW on my brother's account. I created a Gnome Warlock and, probably because of nostalgia, getting my unique Voidwalker felt like on of the coolest things ever.

 

I'm looking forward to the new Demonology Warlock as their talent system looks excellent and it finally fills the role I wanted it to fill (summoning hordes of demons :D)

I am looking forward to the Demon Hunters the most. Sounds like a fun class, and I hope it will get me out of my rut. In the past (way past) I loved the community aspect with everyone hanging out in the major faction towns (Org for me) and unlocking chests, helping newbies and actually defending locations from faction attacks

The main thing i am looking forward in Legion is the new PVP system. Finally i will have a reason to farm and farm battlegrounds. Killing newbies all day is my joy :D
My fondest memory about WoW was when i got my first epic polearm (on my pally) in ZG. I was soooooooooooo happy and excited :D The thing i most miss in WoW nowadays is good low lvl pvp, it used to be very very fun.. but then they made healers op.. and made so u can lvl up in pvp.. no more twinks.. i was so sad. Twinks were the best thing in wow imo

      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!
