Illidan, Illidan, Illidan. I'm looking forward to seeing how they're going to redeem Illidan and his deeds to Azeroth. Honestly I am most stoked about the lore and Demon Hunter storyline I'd say.

Hey fellow people with icy veins!

 

I'm really looking forward to the PvE talent redesigns in Legion. I think it's a very good idea to make talents separate from PvP. They might give more options than the cookie-cutter builds recently. Also I wonder what Illidan's role will be in the story.

 

As for good WoW memories, I have many. But what I am most fond of is raiding with my guild at the end of Pandaria and beginning of WoD as a Death Knight. It strengthened my dedication to the best class in WoW (unbiased fact!!!) and made me grow personally from socially awkward person to a bit less socially awkward team player.

The emerald nightmare raid is a real taunt, New dungeons and from the other side, a whole new fresh Pvp realm. I can't wait to be a Beta tester especially that in Tunisia we don't have a lot of online paiement methods, we're already fighting for it .. :D
YOOHAA really excited :)

Well, to be fair, i really have faith in Legion to restore the old game-play or, and yes i say or, introduce us to new kind of game-play and game mechanics that we've never or almost never seen before, and that we all going to miss in the next coming years.

Why does Legion looks promising you may ask? First of all, the general of feel of this expansion, the artifacts, the new honor system, the separate PVP and PVE talents trees is what we, as players, have been striving for, and this philosophy they have about making every spec unique is really looking awesome..

 

Nostalgia, ahhh, yeah, the good old times as some could say, but what really makes those times so good and fun and exciting? Well, it's the fact that we're playing a new game, seeing new things.

 

From my experience, i must say that the thing that baffled me the most is definitely the world itself, when i first got in, i made a male nightelf hunter, started in the good ol' Teldrassil, it was all new and overwhelming at the start, but when my friend took me to stormwind for the first time, seeing those boats, the big city, i was speechless, i was hooked up to this game from day one..

 

I'll have to stop here or else i'll be typing for a long time.

 

I wanna say Thank You Icyveins for providing us with all the helpful guides and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

I joined in WoD, so Legion will be my first xpac launch experience. God, I hope I won't be in a queue for 12 hours at launch day :D

 

I'm interested in max level world content of Legion, because WoD did a pretty bad job at delivering that in my opinion. So what's the Adventure Mode is going to be like? How will the follower/champion system work? Can't wait for us to get more information about that. Aside from world content, I'm interested in raiding, but I'm absolutely sure the raiding will be fantastic as always. Even in what a lot of people consider "the worst expansion" (Warlords of Draenor) all raids were really well designed and fun overall, so I don't even worry about it.

 

I would like to have beta access to play new specs and to prepare myself a little bit for the launch. Good luck on the giveaway everybody :)

I'm looking forward to legion because with it, comes a new class. And a new class for me means hours of hours of playing it, trying to master the new ways of playing it. And of course all of the new raids and dungeons will be awesome!

I can't tell how much I am excited about every class, I can't wait to explore every single new thing in the new expansion. The lore, what's up with Illidan and Gul'dan, The  Burning Legion, I just can't wait to do all the quests. Demon hunters, artifacts and yeah - a new troll survival hunter with a spear, I mean OMG !!! Blizzard did it again, I am too excited, yeah. :)

Here are my thoughts on Legion.

 

Leveling: I can´t wait to move around on a pink fluffy cloud where all the monsters have foam swords. So that every1 has a chance to lvl without spending to much time thinking at the same time. 

 

Artifact weapon: If you where to inspect a fellow "class" m8 to see what gear he or she is wearing and the find out that he/she has the exact same weapon as you do.

 

New class: An then there is the Demon Hunter - I still remember when Blizzard announced it at the Blizcon and people applauded when 1 of the new spells where double jumping - Really Blizzard is that the best you can come up with. 

 

Lag: 1 Last thing - The new spell animations, they look cool, but how much lag will there be when 20 people are casting spells in a raid. Just thinking of the DC´s the guild that im in is struggling with at the moment, I cant image the DC´s we are going to have. 

 

Let me win so I can be proven wrong :-D

Although I'm not much of a forum poster I check Icy-veins regularly since i have almost every class on max level and want to know what's the best for that class in terms of rotation/stats/specs. Your site is awesome and extremely helpful!

 

For Legion I'm mostly excited to try out these specs and rotations on every class and as a raider I cant wait to try out new raids. I'm a bit of a Lore geek also and would although I'd love to do the quests that would explain new Lore to me I prefer to not be spoiled untill Legion hits live servers.

 

As for my WoW experience. I started playing the game early WotLK and while leveling my paladin as main/first character I enjoyed the questing experience so much that i decided to do all the main faction questlines. This resulted in me getting my Ambassador title at level 55 which was a hard title to get back then. Many guildies were jealoustongue.png . Later when i hit max level i went into dungeons (lfg) using a fishing pole as a weapon (ret pala). Many learning curves later and changing my main spec to protection i managed to kill the Lich King which was a pretty epic experiencebiggrin.png .

For Legion, I'm most looking forward to the PvP changes, especially the prestige system & the cosmetic items from higher prestige levels, along with the change to Outlaw Rogue, pirates life!

Fondest memory of WoW is probably one when I first went to Blackrock Depths with my guild back in vanilla, no maps, no idea what was going on. Took us about 5 hours to finish the dungeon but it was so fun, 5 hours of shenanigans and teamspeak.

I also want to test a bit the demon hunter because this double jump and gameplay arouse me ! Thanks again Icy veins for doing this kind of giveway even if i am not selected for it !

I actually want to test Legion because i want to look like Thrall (super sayajin god Thrall FTW) with the doomhammer.
Legion is the opportunity to destroy some things, smash things, lit on fire things, and annihilate some bosses with my hammer. 
If it's isn't enough i can do magic tricks, like.. ehhhh.... hit things with my hammer and BRRSHHHH lightning from the sky !
The shaman looks awesome and i want to play it again (6 years of enhanced shaman), and in Legions it seems really interesting.

In legion i really look forward to seeing the big changes in the pvp system. I also look forward to seeing the new pve content. 

 

I have alot of great memories with world of warcraft so its hard to pick out one. But i remember really well how hard it was for me to lvl up in early wow with out quest helper. Because at the time i didn't really understand to much english and i was struggling, running around trying to understand what to do.

To tell the truth, Warlords of Draenor had a lot of new features that I really like, especially the new character models, but the story was shorter than I expected and I hope Legion will have much more for us to show. What I look forward in Legion is the lore, the returning characters and of course the Artifact Weapons, especially the Ashbringer (Retribution Paladin) and the Fangs of Ashamane (Feral Druid). What I like the most from the past is the Challenge Mode gear that was obtainable in Mists of Pandaria, too bad that I wasn't able to get any of it.

I'm still kind of on the fence about the expansion, I have played every single expansion since vanilla and this might be the first that I might skip as I have not seen anything overly convincing to bring me back but I'd like to try it out. I do love the lore and thats really the most appealing aspect of it these days.

I'm looking forward to testing out demon hunter (Only been waiting since the start of burning crusade) so hopefully that class will not disappoint.

 

Favourite moment in wow has to be first mythic kill on Kormrok, everybody dead and last man standing with 2% hp securing the kill, or hearing Xt's voice for the very first time on the Ulduar release.

WoW has always been the best game for me. I started playing in Vanilla when I couldn't get past 30 level and continued purchasing each expansion till this day. The game is a part of my life, even though I have been inactive throughout periods the truth is that you never stop playing, you're just taking a break. I have played hardcore PvE and PvP and I'm a lore fanatic, I love the Warcraft universe. That's why I hope Legion revives this game and brings it to its former glory. This expansions is very important, I have seen gameplay and want to try it myself and I have high hopes for it.

The thing I am most looking forward to in Legion is the new challenge mode system, looking forward to unique and challenging 5 man content.  My fondest memory in WoW is progressing through Black Temple during Burning Crusade it was simply my favorite time to raid in the game and I really enjoyed the content at that time.

      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!
