WoW: Legion - Discussion

[Bamm]

The lore nerd in me is excited for the mage weapons. I mean i am getting a guardian of Tirisfal staff like Medivh's mamas staff  but, I do think the other classes have shexier looking weapons, what does everyone think of theres?

[Therak]

But that fire mage sword! One of the best looking weapons imo!

[Bamm]

The weapon that fought frostmourne (and lost, but still) Still pretty cool looking i dunno the shaman and druid are nice as are the Unholy dk sword

Not really too impressed by the hunter artifacts, unfortunately. BM has a gun that looks silly (and I never liked guns in the first place), MM has an elven bow, but is said to be a spec that doesn't allow pets, and the spear concept for survival is interesting, but... I worry how silly the spears will look. Guess I'm just far too picky.

Having said that, I don't think there are -any- artifacts that make me go "woah!" right away. Ashbringer, sure, but that's a dead give-away. Why not use some old weapons that we're familiar with, or that belonged to other Warcraft heroes? Even if it's old, fabled nonsense like Arcanite Reaper, Anathema or... dare I say it, Dirge? Alright, maybe not that last one, but there's just far too much overly shiny stuff in there for me!

Look at this. I can't get over it. Waaaay too hyped!

[Therak]

Honestly, I love spears. Very underused in fantasy overall in comparison to bows and swords. I might have to make a hunter just for it...

At least the weapons can be transmogged...

[Revax]

Brewmaster staff with lots of bottles and kegs and all kinds of trinkets :D:D

Well, I was weary of the expansion at first due to a particular factor (which I will elaborate on shortly) but now i'm sold. This is mainly due to the new bear form model...

Spoiler: show

While the skin on it is likely one of many, the model itself (especially if you had it as plain brown/black fur) is beautiful, thus I am definatly going tank with my druid for pve in Legion. And as Rashka has pointed out, kitty form looks good too... hue hue.

Anyhow... my previous beef and why I have no longer got said beef...


Northrend 2.0

This expansion, if subtly, stinks of the northrend/WoTLK layout. Both have the following...

-A big bad enemy in a fortress on a distant, little known continent that threatens all azeroth with their armies.
-A tauren race
-Dragon culture in the form of a new flight/old flight. As well as a dragon den (neltharions lair)
-Vrykul
-Dalaran, and even a re-used dungeon in the shape of Violet hold.
-The high likely hood of a betrayal or event resulting in war between alliance/horde (like wrathgate)

I could probably spend hours drawing more comparisons and guessing/linking things but ultimately that doesn't matter. WoTLK was arguablly WoW's most successful expansion, it worked brilliantly, and for blizzard to go back to this formula... is only good.

Having looked at the new dungeons (they look amaze-balls), got an inkling of class changes, how artifacts work and learning that 5 man dungeons can be a substitute for raids. I'm happy, Very happy. And wholly looking forward to not only playing my druid but making a demon hunter and embracing what this expansion has to bring on multiple levels.

Legion? count me in.

[Bamm]

Cant blame them for using a wrath style model when they're losing subs left and right seeing as Wrath which had the highest sub count and is now fondly remembered. The shoving orcs in our faces model of hey remember this guy and this guy in WoD's nostalgia trip didn't work, so i guess there going a different route?

I am cautiously looking forward to legion and happy to wait whenever it's release 6-8-9 months is fine i guess, still remains to see what makes it into the game, WoD promised a lot and delivered very little.



P.s   I mean Orc Priests would be nice just saying not bitter or anything nope.

[Rashka]

Krogon remember you can modify it as much as you want aswell.. That's what I'm most excited about

[Revax]

Oh, and the diablo 3 transmog system is coming to wow, that id amazeballd

[Therak]

I am -SO- hyped about the subtlety rogue changes... I'm bouncing up and down in my chair and squeeing... my in laws are looking at me oddly.

[Revax]

Haha thats funny, yes sub is starting to sound amazing.
Really love the new transmog system, its a roleplayers dream come true
Oh and did i mentiion the hide shoulder option?

[Rashka]

OMGOMGOMHGOMFSJSSYBSS I CANNOT CONTAIN THIS HYPE *frothing mouth*
