optimistic, but cautious
Everything about Legion sounds super cool... I want to play it now, I love every new feature they announced. Super hyped!
but there is still the big question.... what to do the next 8 months with our raiding guild? 8 more months the same raid? Really?
If they find a good answer for that (maybe a small raid like Zul Aman) I would be 100% happy. I hope they adresse this problem.
2 Raid tiers is just not enough for such a long time.
Atoms are liars, they make up everything!
I hope they deliver once bitten twice shy 3rd time I'm a total mug
Even though all the Legion stuff sounds call, can't get over the feeling that it's gonna be super grindy, don't know why.
Cannot wait!
I might as well preorder, i mean i dont particularly love everything, but it seems theyre really trying to stop cyclical play with much more long term incremental reward processes, and that means, even if they are still on the rng/rehash train, theres going to be an awful lot to do for those first three or four months. I also have a feeling that 7.1 is going to be the mea culpa patch. My feeling is (and its just a feeling) that theyre now designing activities, particularly world and non raid activity to last 2-3 months per patch cycle with slow reward build ups, but meaningful rewards at the end of the path for those who consumed the content. The key will be how they work those challenge modes and the artifact system, (not to mention the adventure style dailys from the class halls or the random events on the world map). Regardless, its so far ahead of 6.0 with all its apexis zones, defunct heroics as soon as LFR drops, and garrisons, that you cant help but feel that even if you arent entirely convinced by the INDIVIDUAL changes to certain features, theres a design philosophy difference at work that should make Legion to a certain degree significantly more value for money compared to its previous 2 predecessors.
I am very exited!
What I read so far about what is coming, sounds great!
With Legion, Blizzard is certainly making up for WoD.
The expansion does look very promising
Cant wait to test it all in the beta
Thats how i felt with WoD, and my optimism was.. shat on.
I feel there is still no addressing to world content, all i have heard of is pretty much the return of daily hubs.
live world events with prizes worth farming please, half a dozen world bosses all with mount drops and seperate lockouts please.
They talked a lot about world content
Scaling so the entire zone can be used for endgame rather than a few spots like in Wod and
Dynamic events that can change every hour, Day, week, and can be a range of different activies (World bosses, pvp, Mini games, Proffesions, basic dailys, Ect) that you get rewards from
Dailys now stack like hearthstone or Heroes

Already purchased Legion and Overwatch. Didn't give either a second thought when the link popped on the stream yesterday
I went from "never playing WoW again" and haven't for the last 6 months to maybe probably picking it up again. I'm really digging the changes on the horizon but I'll never pre-order it
As long as they get the Transmog and Artifact system right and offer something other than raids for end game content, I'm good. Though not doing a year of HFC, going to unsub once I've finished leveling my alts. Blizzard really should do a 6.3
Lots of good stuff. Some bad stuff.
Good: Transmog tab, better spec identity, better world content, more smaller raids, etc.
Bad: Keeping the same terrible raid model without addressing the problems it causes, lack of pvp content, still trying to rush expansions.
It's blizzard. They always have good ideas, and they always cling to terrible ones for way too long. They recognize their failures and refuse to act. They're money grubbing and have terrible storytelling. I know what to expect already from them at this point. Whether I resub or not will depend on the beta, not blizzcon hype.
Soothing Mist:"Healing them for a minor amount every 0.5 sec, until you take any other action."
Jade Serpent Statue: "The statue will also begin casting Soothing Mist on your target. healing for 50% as much as yours. "
[What's half of minor?]
"Statue casts Soothing Mist at a nearby ally for toddler healing."
After playing every expansion to date, I find it hard to be genuinely excited. There are no major system changes in this one, just more yo-yo'ing with design. I am curious about the new talents, but that's about it.
