Don't forget the clearly Greater rift-inspired challenge dungeon revamp!
Guys, I want to pimp my UI up. I've not done it since... Well, never, really. I dabbled a lot with Bartender and the like back in TBC & Wrath, but since then, I've been basic. Bagnon, mailbox, auctionator, atlas loot, GRID, DBM, recount, and anything for co-ords (tomtom now).
Gimme some Curse links for some non-standard UI craziness, please! The only request I have is that I can keep the default keybindings, because I've got mine just perfect.

And obviously....
They going full Reaper of Souls in Legion. Obviously the stuff in WoW won't be exactly the same but it's pretty clear they were inspired a lot by what the D3 team has been doing over the past year.
Works for me, RoS has had a lot of good ideas that could easily work in WoW.

You are, that's what we're talking about!
So, uh, there are mechanical gnomes in Northrend. I wonder if those become tame-able...

Slavery!
Yeah I mean we're essentially getting a more interesting version of greater rifts, a WoW version of the bounty system, and items that change how your skills function.
All we're really missing is paragon levels which personally I am okay with not being in the game. They already suck in D3 since the only purpose they serve anymore is a time gate on how far you can progress in GRs, don't need them to bring down WoW as well.

The way they described mechanical pets makes them sound similar to Spirit Beasts. There will only be a small set amount of them that will have specific encounter mechanics for taming. I wouldn't get too excited thinking about every mechanical mob in the game and thinking you might get to tame it.

Seems to me that using Paragon levels or something similar would be an adequate way to solve the whole 'I'm at level 110' clunkiness. I believe Guild Wars 2 does something similar with some such rank. You're level is no longer displayed, it just shows your current over level rank.
I feel like that's what the idea with the legendary weapons is. It's a way to do paragon without making it obvious.
I'm not too familiar with it, but I'd love to see WoW's take on it if people liked it that much.
Mechanically the artifact weapons are fairly comparable to paragon levels, the main difference is that there is actually a cap on the power growth instead of thousands of levels of clicking +5 strength over and over. In that respect it would be closer to vanilla D3 paragon (which was a much better version of the system anyway, so win-win).
Didn't really think about it earlier, but, yeah if an artifact weapon will take months to max out that is pretty much exactly like the old paragon system D3 had except it is tied to a weapon they can get rid of next expansion instead of our character.
You get XP after level cap, and that contributes to your Paragon level (which can continue forever). Each level gives something like, using Wizard as an example, +3 int, +2 stamina.

Nope. You can keep increasing main stat or vitality after that point. Which is why people grind it so hard, to really push higher greater rift levels.

Had to log into the game and look, but yeah, you're right. Never noticed those two parts didn't have limits on them.
I've been monitoring the price the past few days, this is the most stable its been in the past several days, its about 1 full day around 38k, not sure if it'll go down anymore really.
At least its not EU prices which sit at about 61K to 66K lol

Do survival hunters use pets in Legion
Yes they do, as of now they get flanking strike instead of kill command (same spell really)

Awesome, if I come back for Legion I guess I'll be playing my Goblin hunter.
Yeah, and this is what makes it such an awful system. The people that play the most end up a few thousand levels higher than you (there are people closing in on paragon 3000 this season and it still has like a month till it is over) which gives them like 3x their main stat which is a massive damage increase. For high end GR pushing your paragon level matters more than any gear you are wearing. Would be terrible if WoW worked the same way, especially with it getting the new dungeon system that mimics GRs.
Is it worth having treasure hunters on more than 2 characters? I have a bunch across 3 of my toons but my 3rd guy was rarely getting any gold missions since the nerf way back when. I still have a ways to go to get 25 treasure followers on the first 2 toons but just want to know if its worth it for the 3rd character. Still debating whether or not to buy a token, I was paying for it fine months ago when it was 25k and at 38k just wonder how much more work that is since some days all I can do is garrison for 5 mins.

If you want piles of gold and can't be bothered with any other aspect of the garrison life, yes.
My characters are still making like 3-5k per week just from gold missions alone so I've found it worth it. Also there is still some RNG involved in the system, I had 3 characters get blingtron's vault this week for some reason.
You don't really need 25 treasure hunters anyway. I usually aim for about 10, just make sure they have varied abilities.
I see. I have around 10 or so on 3 characters already but noticed my 3rd character never got more than 1 gold mission per day and this was for well over a month (granted this was about 3-4 months ago when I was playing). If its just bad RNG then i'll keep trying and probably work on getting a 4th one once I sub back into after the holiday. Thanks guys.

Stone bear, wood cat and bone bear look awesome. Druids are the winner of the artifacts, all their specs get solid looking weapons & forms.

I LOVE MY GUILD MASTER! He was feeling nice due to the holidays and invited me into the Heroic run tonight, despite me being undergeared due to working so much the last 2 months.
I got the bow from Manno, BiS gloves, tier chest, Trink from Archimonde....and most importantly...

Do you have a level 3 Inn? If not, that might be why.

Anyone have well-geared Alliance characters they'd like to do Mythic dungeons on maybe this weekend? Really want to try and get as many shots as I can at the trinket. A well-geared group can do all 8 in 2-3 hours. ~715 Frost DK here.
I need to figure out how to set up a H Garrosh farm. I know I need to get an alt saved and then make a custom group but I'm not sure how to reset it so my warrior can keep coming on and getting Garrosh respawned to bonus roll him and how to keep that up in a custom group listing to get more people in.

looks like scarlet monastary
I'd much rather have that, then logging on 10 different characters and seeing the same shit every time.
