Legion and Demon hunter wants to say hello to you
Even not a hero monk came with mop .
Itâs funny because I remember back in Legion times I was reading the forums and people were saying itâs the worst ever and that WoW is dead.
Legion was incredible. Wished the expansion had lasted for longer instead of them rushing out BFA which has led to everything in WoW having been rushed and broken since then.
I honestly donât get how we went from legion->bfa->SL. So much more to do in legion, mage tower, open world PvP objectives, new class, amazing open world powers.
The story was incredible, the raids were amazing (still are to be fair). M+ was brilliant and so much fun, tanks were so much fun to play and felt hella tanky. We had much better class rotations for majority of classes before the great BFA pruning.
Legion wasnât perfect, but man have they cut away so much cotent in BFA and SL.
Be aware of the fact that legion was in development for 6years that is longer then world of warcraft vanilla.
Legion is the expansion with the most dev time of all.
They even stopped the dev team working on WoD to work on legion.
Of course itâs the best expansion. Itâs the expansion where they introduced Alleria Windrunner.
Wish theyâd get a bigger team if true. The amount of money wow makes yearly they could have 3 teams cycling 2 year expansions no problem.
Blizzard could hire 10 different teams working concurrently with the insane amount of money they make.
Gotta squeeze out every single penny for their investors though. Have a small overworked team that you force to create content to fulfil random clown requirements taught at fancy pay to play business schools instead of just creating a good game.
Class design was terrible, as it has been since after MoP.
legion had some issues, but was the best iteration of âmodernâ wow we had imho.
class halls were very cool, and added replayability.
the focus on class fantasy is what many players always wanted.
artifact weapons were a cool progression system, that you could show on your character, with tons of recolours matching different (good looking) tier sets of the expansion, and that you could aim for specifically.
magetower, great piece of content, sure it wasnât 100% balanced but that would be impossible.
the systemic and metric disease blizz has been infected with, was not yet developed, so the game still felt genuine.
suramar! do i need to say more? most engaging storytelling wow ever managed to get ingame.
kadgar and illidan as central characters.
legion dalaran was a very cool hub.
murlocs everywhere as quest givers or flavour npcs.
Legion had its own set of problems with legendary rng and AP grind in the first 2 seasons. People were so unbelieveably outraged about it back then, but ToS and Antorus were really good so they overshadowed the whole thing and people forgot about it.
BFA was similar in this way with 8.2 & 8.3 being good content wise, at least somewhat overshadowing that dumpsterfire 8.0 and 8.1 were.
But SL is different. We already got a new zone und some QoL improvements and it still feels bad. Time to move on to a new xpac.
Warlords of draenor was in Paladin ballance wise.
Legion canât be the best expansion since the game basically suffers from legion flaws, such has pruned to death classes, imbalance in terms of kit, over reliance on systems for class design, RNG fiesta on gear, massive infinite time gated grinds.
And to wrath fans, Wotlk also introduced many things you guys seem to complain aboot like lfg and gear being seasoned.
the upgrade your weapon system was so nice and better then rng vault weapons because the slot is too important for many specs
dont forgett that right now there are player with 253 weapons and player with 228 weapons who literally played the same amount of 9.1
WOD and Legion made me desub for the first time since 2005/6. I went back only to check out shadowlandsâŚbut it does not look very good.
I disagree, yes legion introduced many features that got pushd to the extreme later on, but in legion most of those feature were still implemented in a sensible way, and therefore worked well.
legion is cell replication, SL is cancer, just because cancer spreads due to cell replication, it does not mean that cell replication sucks per se.
Legion also introduced a lot of cool stuff that we lost afterward.
Legion had its problems, like AP farming (thatâs about it for me), but the legion expansion overall was amazing, blissful, rewarding (comparing to now). Loved everything about it, world design (AHH Suramar), music, engaging story, artifact weapon and especially the artifact table skills was amazing for me, gave me the old talent tree feels which I loved drool. The legion vibe was for me, loved everything about it.
Kinda sad i didnt play Legion, seems like alot of ppl liked that expansion.
RNG on gear? Iâm curious, if legion used to have bad rng gear ( which oddly you would get a gear drop from every raid boss, plus bonus roll, not to mention gear drop in BGs. Yeah RNG fiesta on gear for sure lol ), how does bfa and SL seems to you then?!
it was so much gear in legion because there was TITANFORGE⌠and it was bad. u couldent get your bis set not for pvp not for pve. legendarys ware rly bad desinged. i levleed 2 warriors and played the one who got hes bis leggo. in legion u couldent swap specs because of the ap grind in the 1st 2 raids⌠EN and Nh. it was a total fiasco. remember the that trinket from the world boss that had only secondary stats on it? all of them? so much frustration to farm it cuz of titganforge.
