Legion "Leak" from reddit

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

I DID NOT CREATE THIS.

I will keep this updated as much as I can.

Its the same person who leaks Warlords of Draenor and Legion before announce.

Consider this less than a grain of salt.
Saltypigeon (same guy who leaked the plot/ and talents of MoP and WoD prior to their release) posted a short descriptive list of what to expect from specs in Legion on MMOChampion
I can't find the post anymore as it was possibly deleted by the moderators or himself (just like his previous posts) but luckily i copied and pasted it before sending it to a FB friend.
Choose to believe or not to believe, criticism is welcome. I'm just copy/posting it here cuz it sounds cool and all. Formatting will make it hard to read as it's copy and pasted
coo coo, saltypigeon here its that time of the month again peeps, I'll only post a bit of what i know, no im not listing every single class, only gonna be giving a fraction of me love to those that weren't given any in the announcement trailer

WARRIORS
BLADEMASTER (Arms) New resource bar "Precision Bar"
Rage bar is not removed in place for this
Strike from Cata returns as a builder for precision
The fuller the precision bar is the more times you could use Overpower
Abilities that cost rage builds up Precision
-Bloodied Axe of Cenarius
BERSERKER( Fury) Fast paced
Haste reliant
Low Global cooldown (good luck with carpal tunnel)
(SPOILER - Varian goes out in a similar way as Brox, being the 2nd mortal to strike Sargeras, Fury warrior's pick up his separated Shalamayne, 1h Fury wield Ellemayne and Shala'tor, 2h fury wields Ellemayne and Shala'tor combined with the broken pieces of the Great Sword of Stormwind recovered from Blackrock Mountains)
GLADIATOR (Protection) gladiator stance is now a passive with minor adjustments the vrykul artifact weapons give prot some juicy bonuses MONK

WINDWALKER

Brews are renamed and no longer brews in order to fit class, the abilities remain the same however.
playstyle/lore (TEB = Chi Efflux, Energizing Brew = Xuen's Orison)
Crackling Jade Lightning is now Crackling Jolt - Burst like ability similar to the current Siegebreaker
Artifact weapon customization will change the color of your visuals (Teal green, Orange, Yellow, Blue)
BREWMASTERS
Stagger Removed, New more appealing system taking it's place
Artifact weapon is a keg that shows on your back, when sheathing; mugs of beer are wielded in your hands.
MISTWEAVER
lots of complaints incoming for mistweaver monks, sorry
Less mobile - More casting


ROGUES
Generally are less cooldown reliant in legion
COMBAT
removing insights
Main Gauche is redone (1 parry = 2 gauche strikes)
pirate-like gameplay style with the use of mid range gun execution, lots of parrying
SUB
sub rogues will be getting an ability where they untarget themselves without vanishing/stealth, unlike vanish, this does not exit them out of target, instead, it acts as a really short stun
Valeera Sanguinar's Daggers but not really
ASSASSINATION
DoT reliant, heavy procs with each dot
No big changes
No clue about Artifact wep

Thanks for that.

Pleased Varian goes out in a blaze of glory.

You guys know that "Official Leaks from Reddit" is as reliable as these "Official MMO-Champ Leaks"?

And we already knew most of the rogues "leaks" from interviews.

Wait, so this is an mmo post about a reddit post about an mmo post?

Aww really hope Varian isn't going to die. One of the few Alliance characters I like.

[rad586]

Why bother with leaks when in few weeks we'll have official info delivered to us by Blizzard themselves ?

I bet he was going to die in Warlords but it was cut..

This guy isn't saltypigeon and Marlamin said (in the general beta topic) that mods haven't deleted any such thread. He's just using some other guy's credibility to make his troll post seem more legit.

On top of that, his "leaked" claims are just ridiculous.
"Strike", a flavourless ability that only existed to give Warriors a button before level 10, when they got their first button from talents, is never going to be a core spec ability.
2H Fury uses two 2H weapons, not one, and they aren't going to collect three weapons for the use of one spec. Also Varian's Sword and The Great Royal Sword have completely different aesthetics and would not be wielded together.
Brews are not going to be renamed to "Orisons" which doesn't even mean anything similar to brew, or anything to do with a monk.
Monks aren't going to dual wield mugs.
Stagger isn't going anywhere.
Rogues are not going to use parrying as a core class mechanic when they are not tanks and will never get to parry an attack.

Thanks for the chuckle.

Is this is true, damn Alliance, why so jelly? also, how the fuck is varian going to "cut" sargeras? brox's axe was empowered by a demigod because reasons, so what would be the reasoning for enchanting Varian weapons instead of, you know, the heroes that have FUCKING ALWAYS saved this god damn planet called Azeroth?

[rogueMatthias]

Dammit, I was worried they were going to kill Varian.

I HATE Anduin, SO MUCH, his whole set-up has just made him seem like a real brat. He endangered the lives of all of his troops in MOP just so he could explore some more. Pissed off if he's going to become humans racial leader. (Though it'll be even more hilarious when he's high-king and starts giving military advice to silly old Tyrande)

[ComputerNerd]

A far more realistic and interesting leak is the one I take after a drink.

Whew, thank you. I was about to jump in and say it doesn't make sense to give rogues a parry mechanic that isn't for tanking, but you summed all of that up nicely. I'll pass on this set of rumors and wait the 2 weeks for real information.

Gives hype and speculation and I did NOT make this.

I repeat, I did NOT make this.

[Frolk]

Please edit ur post to sort text to the left plx, centered makes it harder to read

also, "leaks", lets start calling em for what they are, what that spesific fan wants/hopes

[thilicen]

What the hell is the point of centering the text like that?

[Sierra85]

seems legit, if its from the same guy as the MoP & WoD leaks?

[Maxilian]

The lack of storyline leaks makes me sad

Note: Well... at least we got the info about Varian's dead, not really surprising but still... better than nothing

[Alroxas]

Wouldn't this be better placed in the Legion subforum instead of general discussion? Considering that the source is not from Blizzard directly, it's all hearsay.

[Imnick]

Gives hype and speculation and I did NOT make this.

Yeah but you did decide to repost it as if it were worth listening to.

seems legit, if its from the same guy as the MoP & WoD leaks?

It's not.
It's from a guy who says he saw a post by that guy which was then deleted. A post which doesn't exist.
He's using that guy's name to make his bullshit sound believable, in other words.
