Legion will in fact be one of the best expansions Blizzard have ever made, or it will just be the expansion that will destroy the game, i am looking forward to start trying all the new aspects of the expansion, along with learning my classes and testing out the dungeons and raids because our guild is gonna go back to be a hardcore guild on Legion and we want to push for the highest possible ranks, for hardcore progression there is a lot to be learned in a short period of time regarding the new talents,spells and most importantly, artifact weapons.

Blizzard have put the time and effort into this expansion because the game almost died on Warlords of Draenor and they want to revive World Of Warcraft.

Since the moment I played World of Warcraft I always imagined playing a Demon Hunter due to Illidan being my alltime favorite in the Warcraft series (Closely followed by Cho'Gall) and now I am getting both in Legion <3

Probably gonna end up with atleast 4 Demon Hunters, 1 per Mainrealm and 2 on each Side.

 

Cannot wait to try out the beta and test the class myself sooner or later.

I'm excited for the new artifact weapons. I am not as hardcore as I used to be so things like the wardrobe are also a nice addition for me. Anything that gives me something to do beyond raiding and PVP I love!

I am looking forward for the new class (Demon Hunter) and overhaul of most of the specs and talents which makes the game fresh and appealing to play for more than 10 years. And I want to reap souls with my Warlock biggrin.png

I love you site thanks for that opportunity. What I'm looking  the most in Legion is the class change, what they said about bring back the fantasy of each class. The class order hall, artifact weapon and many other aspect (the updated animation) are also very attractive. But I want to feel what is like to be a warlock and not just a mage with shadow bolt, i want the 3 hunter spec to feel different. I want each and every spec feel unique. And don't forget the Demon Hunter !!! OMG !

I am excited as this expansion brings back found memories of Wraith for me. This was a happy time in the World for me. I was finally able to come back to the game after being away since launch when the birth of my son at the time. I was able to raid and experience all the new content and the new class that came with it. Now with Legion I have the same freedom of time to give to the game and the same excitement is there as well. The artifact weapons are what I am looking forward to the most. I have never been an alt kinda guy but for the first time ever I actually want to level 3 or 4 different classes because of the artifact weapons and this is unprecedented for me. I look forward to and am excited for how Shamans are shaping up and look very much forward to leveling, doing dungeons with guild mates and of course raiding all that Legion has to offer to us. Good luck to everyone and grats to those who do win and make sure to report and feedback they really are listening.

The thing I'm most looking forward to in Legion is the Mage class changes.  I remember being level 20, sitting on the hill over looking Lakeshire thinking how perfectly the class fit my playstyle.  Now, almost 11 years later (and still my main character) I sit on the very same hill reflecting on all the friends I've made In this game and all the great memories.

Besides the Demon Hunter, I am most looking forward to the graphical world. I love the various types of topography and scenery as well as the different beings encountered. As a disabled person, they allow me to explore worlds and be "Normal" for a while.

I am beyond hyped for the shadow priest overhaul and the new class fantasy direction. Can't wait to get my hands on Xal'atath and embrace the Old Gods. I've been raiding as a shadow priest since the end of Cataclysm and the new changes are very exciting to me.

I am really excited for Legion. We are back in Dalaran, with class halls, and it is looking like our artifacts even interact with things in the world! That, and the range of QoL improvements just make me hyped for what is still to come. I can't wait to explore the world with my Mage on release!

I'm looking forward to seeing how the class changes have panned out. With the new animations, small combat look changes and class overhauls a lot of the classes and specs are looking completely new and interesting. I watch Legion streams on twitch when I can but it's not the same as playing and seeing for yourself.

 

And as all of us must be, I'm interested to see how end game is going to play out and hoping testers can get in quickly and provide enough feedback for it. WoD was a disaster in that sense so hopefully Legion can provide a more fulfilling play experience.

 

My favorite memory from WoW is the first guild I was ever in and the people I met there. WoW was my first mmo and I was kind of blown away by how many people were playing and how easily it was to interact. Back in the early days of WoW I find it incredile how sociable people were and how seemingly easier it was to makes friends or at least be friendly with other players.

 

About a day or two into playing WoW I was invited to a small guild. I very quickly became chummy with a small group of irl friends and I found it so much fun just to be able to have that group experience as I leveled and also that experience of meeting new people at the same time.

I still remember from about level 35 being called from the other side of the world to come for a guild instance run, being delighted at the chance and then being able to see everyone when you got there. SM runs, mara, strat, scholo, ZF etc Stuff like that felt like it was an afternoons worth of fun. It was a fantastic experience which played on into raiding in TBC.

I Have been incredibly hyped for this expansion since it was announced, I am looking forward to the new cat, bear and moonkin models for my main (Worgen Druid) and really want to be a tree cat! I hope that they talk more about our classes / specs, or like have some class specific quests to get a legendary at end game, or just a really high item level piece of gear.... I am also looking forward to being a melee hunter again!

This expansion looks like it has a lot to do with Druids, which really makes me happy... I just hope that they add in more looks for the Artifact weapons.

Thank you for putting on this! :) I'm really looking forward to Legion. Allowing me to have access to beta will let me have an even better understanding of the game itself so I can give feedback to sites like this and discuss with other like-minded individuals to help better the community as a whole! 

 

Once again, thanks for doing this for the WoW community! I know we all appreciate it ^_^

The new Animations and the new Transmog overhaul have me the most excited so far!

I am also a fan of any design that make specializations feel more unique, especially for the pure DPS classes. Outlaw rogue and Survival hunter are, in theory, very flavorful and unique designs, so I hope they live up to the hype.

I was not sold on Demon Hunter at first but after seeing them in combat I am coming around. They are flashy and aesthetically very pleasing, which is great from the "spectator / e-sports" pov. It's nice that you can very clearly see the "beats" of the fight when they dash in, dash away, go demon mode, ect. The combat animations look well done, it is unfortunate they only have 2 specializations but maybe a third will get added for them at some point down the road. 

 

We will see how the artifact weapon system pans out, on one hand it is cool to "level up" a weapon and customize its appearance and abilities, on the other hand it is very restrictive for some classes in terms of transmog and weapon drops are a very exciting thing so trade-offs might not be worth it, time will tell!

I'm really looking forward to playing with the new artifacts and hopefully get a bit more azshara and N'zoth lore in legion.

I really enjoy playing World of Warcraft. I started in Classic and I relive each expansion as a new game and there is always something new that makes me happy that I can still play this game.

My fondest memories are hitting for the first time 2k rating in arenas in The Burning Crusade (with my brother :] ) and fully completing raid Throne of Thunder in Mists of Pandaria.

 

In Legion I am really looking forward to new PvP system because new Prestige system and separated talents open window for a lot of opportunities and more interesting gameplay.

I think Artifacts ( learning their origins, collecting artifact powers, activate new appearances ) are really nice idea for a late game content ( desire to achiev it with every class).

In PvE I personally specialize in raid healing and I have a lot of feedback that I would like to share with others but I cannot because I don't have acces to alpha/beta.

Oh man. Where to start. When it comes to Legion there is a lot i am actually looking forward to. For example the Demon Hunters. I want to get to know the lore more and know exactly what is going on since Black Temple till the current time in the time line, this will hopefully give us more lore on what the hell happened to Illidan and why Gul'dan needs him.

 

I am looking forward to all the different class changes coming to Legion as they make classes look new and refreshing. I want to try ones that are completely brand new or reworked like Demonology Warlock, Outlaw Rogue, Survival Hunter, Unholy DK and obviously the two Demon Hunter specs Havoc and Vengeance.

 

I am looking forward to exploring the new zones. Delving deep into their lore and seeing what has been happening on the broken isles and what us champions need to do to help the inhabitants. My favourite zone is Val'sharah because the Emerald Nightmare corruption seems absolutely amazing and the story gripped me in seconds.

 

Also I want to see the dungeons and test them out. See how hard they potentially are. I know challenge modes aren't currently out but I really want to see how they'll work and how challenging they would be. I also want to see how the story of the zones are worked with the dungeons seeing as the dungeons are the ending to the zones.

 

The PvP system seems very interesting and worth trying. It might make me get hooked again by adding an actual progression system with the honor leveling, seeing as I am a completionist I'd love to just grind it out for the artifact + recolours + whatever else is given to me for prestiging.

 

And finally the raids. Even though most of the information about the raids haven't been released. I'm very very excited to see how the encounters will play out and what mechanics there are involving the raid. As well as what the Mythic mechanics are. What the new tier sets look like for the classes and what the 2 and 4 piece bonuses are and how they affect the class meta.

 

As for the past. I have enjoyed a lot of things. Going through the content for the first time. Exploring the world. The laughs the cries. Stepping into a raid for the first time and being blown away by not just the scenery but also a mechanic on a boss killing me because I was bad. Then it was all about the learning curve. When you practise and read and learn and you actually get better at the game. Reading tactics, studying how to play your class effectively those moments were way more fun and I put a lot of time into learning this, more time than I put into my studies for school. Every raid tier has been amazing. The team cannot go wrong with their raid tiers. PvP has always been fun but never been hardcore into it. Only running battlegrounds occasionally for fun with some friends and we just mess around.

 

Other than that there really isn't much else to say. I am very nostalgic of the past. Excited for the future of WoW in Legion and beyond. Blizzard always finds a way to bring me back to WoW and become a die hard fan.

      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!
