Icy Veins' 5 Years Anniversary: 200 Legion Beta Key Giveaway

Recommended Posts

My fondest memory is from back in vanilla.  We were leveling up and I was doing BRD for the first time on my first alt (Arms Warrior Hordeside) on my second server.  We were at a good level to do the prison wing, we were mostly in the same level range (no overlevels, much less overgearing).  We finished the prison and just decided, "You know what, let's see how far we can go.  Levels started to climb (back in the day, BRD's level range stretched right up to 60, or near that in Thaurissan's case, I can't remember).  What I do know is that when we reached Thaurissan's chamber, after leveling a few times ourselves, his level was a skull.  It took us four tries to get him down and a lot of different stunts (including a rogue switching spec to assassination hybrid, which helped for some reason

I am really looking forward to the whole Burning Legion theme in general, and my favorite moment in WoW has to be right after I first started playing, I witnessed Kruul invading stormwind, it was amazing.

Long time Warcraft fan here, Been playing since WC2 tides of darkness and i am excited to see the tomb of sargeras  again and Night Elf lore/and the Illidan/Tyrande/Malfurian trio *basically not much since wc3 except a few zones. My 2 favorite characters are Arthas and Illidan and i glad to finally see Illidan is getting the story he should of had from the beginning. *I heard orginially in TBC he was going to be a ally guiding us through outland, then they changed it. I AM SO GLAD We finally got it. my mains a warlock and i been annoyed we been teased with a demon hunter spec since mist alpha. Hell, WoD beta had a meta talent till they took it out at release for demonbolt. i remember being so sad when they took the meta talent away and i was pissed, then few months later i see DEMON HUNTER COMING SOON. it made me about die in joy. also when i heard about artifact weapons i was sold. finally a weapon i can identify with my class spec with lots of lore *while also not being a legendary only good for one patch* Overall, LEGION LOOKS LIKE THE BEST EXPANSION BLIZZARD HAS DONE. they got the lore, they got the class, they got the best new features. and they are taking good things from Diablo and bringing them here.

Can't wait for another installment of the Warcraft universe. This immersive game has been a home away from home since vanilla. Even though I haven't been subbed the whole time it's the one game I keep coming back too. Artifact weapons are going to be amazing and I can't wait for demon hunter.

I'm just ready for my friends to finally come back to the game. Couldn't be happier with Demon Hunters, the new PvP system, artifact weapons, and the newly revised class specs that are going to add a sense of diversity again

For legion I am most looking forward to the new challenge mode system. I have always really enjoyed the 5 man content, and have been disappointed in the most recent expansions that the dungeons became quickly irrelevant over the course of the release, (yes mythic dungeons were introduced but a little late!) and am really looking forward to the interesting weekly de-buff on the CM keystone to make it challenging and fun!

Looking forward to destruction lock changes we haven't seen yet, hoping for some crazy stuff considering the artefact weapon was the very sceptre used to destroy old Draenor and turn it into outland, Glory to the black harvest!

I would love to see how the professions will work out in this expansion. I didn't like what they did with them in WoD and I hope the revamp will make them again fun. Also, the world looks so well designed, can't wait to experience that as well.

I'm really looking forward to the transmog changes, Moonkin changes, artifact weapons, two flask icons that are not practically the same color, and any other reasons to leave my garrison.sooo many But let's see, back in Cata, we were on Spine of Deathwing Heroic. And I mean we'd been going at this fight for weeks at this point. One night, we're on the last plate, both healers are pretty much dry, and we're steeling ourselves for yet another wipe. But our shaman, let's himself die, reincarnates with just enough mana oomph to get us through 10 more seconds and we ended up downing the boss. I don't think our vent was that loud even on our first LK kill lolAnd here's one more personal moment since I just thought of it before I hit Post. I had been camping in Shadowmoon Valley for a couple of hours in seach of the Voidtalon of the Dark Star. I was about to run out of free time so I decided to call it quits and was going to go up to Nagrand to check the BMAH before I logged off. Lo and behold, as I was running up the path right in front of the Ring of Blood I see a purple shimmer off to my right and there's the portal. I quickly veered off course, hopped in, and claimed what has become one of my favorite mounts.

I'm most excited for the new class, from what I've seen so far it look badass and fun to play, I'm also interested in it story and what they add to the world in general. I'm also looking forward to the story and lore very very much, because in my opinion the overall story arc is all over the place since Cataclysm, it's time to fight the Legion again and hopefully it will lead us to new planets with new races and I hope we will be getting out of the Azeroth - Draenor cycle after this one

I hope Blizzard learns from what they've done wrong with Warlords of Draenor. Maybe it's just me, but the subscriptions numbers point to that aswell, I got bored by WoD so fast. Where is my level 4,5,6 Garrison? New buildings? Right, the shipyard and Tanaan was fun. For 2 Weeks, until people grinded all the reputation. I hope they patch new content more frequently during Legion because from what I've seen so far it doesn't look bad.

Since WC3 demon hunter have been my favorite class and the lore of Illidan is amazing. I am most looking forward to playing through the story as a Night Elf Demon Hunter along side the infamous Illidan

This might seem like a dumb feature to get hyped about for an expansion but I'm really digging the new transmog system. Mostly because of this : http://imgur.crTNkIo Asyou can see I have a bit of a transmog hoarding issue and it's been like this since Cataclysm, so you can imagine what a sigh of relief I had when they announced this new diablo inspired system.   Also looking forward to the prestige system since I don't really enjoy arenas and I can never seem to gather people for RBGs. The only PVP I do is random bgs and this new system will finally bring a proper reason for doing them besides gearing up. I care a lot about aesthetics aswell and what they are doing with the melee classes, revamping their entire animation set, is absolutely fantastic for me. Finally you can distinguish warriors from other classes in a crowded fight (the new sounds for melee are kickass aswell). So yea, while I'm really looking forward to the "main" content such as raiding, endgame areas, questing or pvp. I'm very thankful that they bring a lot of little details that make this world that much more interesting .

One thing I'm really excited for is that they're making every spec seem new. It makes me want to play everything again and see what I enjoy again. I used to love making toons back when I first started and now I can enjoy the newness all over again. The other thing I'm looking forward to is how the new follower missions and stuff work. How awesome is that?

First of all i want to say that it's the first time i have posted here but it's not the first time i have visited the website. Your class guides, be it in WoW or Diablo are an invaluable source of information for me, and be it now or in Legion you are offering a tremendous help to the community. I look forward to reading the new content you will have come Legion's launch. Also, happy birthday!

 

I think the fondest memory for me in WoW from a gameplay perspective was when in TBC my Ret paladin finally became a viable spec for raiding. It was great heading to Tempest keep for the first time in the spec i always loved. I have played him as a main ever since! But better than that is that i met my other half in WoW during those days and now we live happily together. ^^

 

We naturally play all of the classes and are super excited to test them and give great feedback to help make the game even better before live release. Dungeons, raids, PvP, challenge modes are all looking like great content! And those artifacts and class halls are sweeeeet!! One for each spec, how amazing is that? Doesn't it make you want to level them all? Haha!

I'm looking forward to playing the warrior class and of course playing with my friends who already got it. Also I'm a very big fan of the lore so being able to do the quests at my own pace instead of rushed during the release would be amazing.

      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!
