The Arcanite Reaper looking thing is for Death Knights, as far as I'm aware.

Rogues get TF reskin?
THAT'S BULLSHIT!
Oh yeah, mythic Mannoroth down! Last pull was on overtime and after 2 1min wipes so people were kinda disillusioned
Very nice. Congrats!
When our only weapon variation as prot is this stupid little fucking dagger sword, then we damn well can!
The sword doesn't look great, but I do like the Prot Shield. At least you can xmog the sword to something that matches and looks cooler.

The end of this Machinima by Nixxiom on Class Halls cracked me up...

But we can't mog it into the most recognizable tank weapon the game has ever seen.

I think I might actually main Guardian in Legion over Feral. Survivability is better and the damage output is good enough to where it doesn't feel so slow killing random mobs. The new forms look just as good as Feral's, too.

The DK one sums exactly why I have 0% care about the DK class hall, same place I've been using since wotlk... Fucking yay...
This is inaccurate because every Shaman wants Thrall to fall off a cliff
Also the irony of mocking Blizz for Archerus and Wandering Isle and then complaining about not getting Ravenholdt in that vid
Ravenholdt is a pretty unique location entrenched in rogue fantasy that rogues never actually visit. Archerus is somewhere a Death Knight will visit frequently, and Wandering Isle is where the entire race starts.
I can definitely see why rogues would prefer Ravenholdt over Dalaran Sewers.

Grats, enjoy the wipe fest at archimonde. Although I do prefer arch over manno
Edit: stupid phone auto corrects. I need a gamers dictionary for it.

I've got 28 days left on my current sub, outside of leveling a warlock to 100 with inscription and herbalism for Legion, I don't know what else I want to do in the game. I've got another timecard but I think I'll just sit on it for Legion. I don't raid, and I don't want to spend anymore time in Tanaan, my garrisons or ever look at the shipyard again.

Although I agree with most points, Wandering Isle is a beautiful zone that is literally inaccessible once you leave it. Seems fine to be made into a class hall for people to revisit on their mains.
I read someone saying Blizzard plans to make healing solo viable for leveling in legion or just doing dailies or whatever. Can anyone confirm?
I was just playing my holy paladin and holy shit it takes me about 10 minutes to kill anything. How is it tanks can destroy mobs quick now but healers are still doing damage like it's BC?

Yeah, they've said that tanks and healers will be good at leveling and dailies solo but I don't think that the alpha reflects this currently.
Yep, they've said it a few times now. I assume because of artifact weapons since you will be stuck with only 1 of them presumably the entire leveling experience.
Those of those Legion ship things I believe (you can see them in the demon hunter starting experience), not sure if it is still there on the current build but there was also some weird invisible dalaran above kara alongside them. Random video of a dude flying around it.
No idea what any of it is for though.
Pretty sure on alpha healers have an invisible +100% damage done passive when questing out in the world.
You are expected to level with your artifact for your main spec so they kinda have to

I'm so going to make a Shockadin
And yeah that Rogue tier is sexy as fuck. Though the HFC Rogue tier is great too.

Reminds me of getting to Northrend for the first time, but maybe even more impressive.
Oh and i'm to 91+ kills on Yogg now (60%+ chance - ayyyy). Still no mount. Like, I don't necessarily think it's the best, but it's unique and I want it on my engineers.
We don't need pics for that. Everyone's ready to fuck off Draenor with or without them.
I agree with StMeph. Fuck Draenor.
Some of it looks nice, but I'm fucking done with.
I've never felt so "done" with an expansion.
Agreed. For all the faults Warlords has, the art direction isn't one of them. SMV & Talador are two of the best looking zones of all time, and nowhere except Winterspring can hold a candle to Ridge for the #1 snow zone.
Fire mage looks great.
Always had trouble with casters, leaning towards hunter. I could go back to rogue I guess, maybe ret just cause I've worked so hard on transmog and I could still tank

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
I'd say Storm Peaks edges out, but that's purely due to the music.

The guild finally got Archimonde (Normal) down. I got Calamity's Edge.
Storm Peaks questing is/was pretty awful, if I'm remembering right... Can't recall memorable quests, but it does host the greatest raid of all time.

cata was still worse

I have my DK alt parked there. If you need something give me a holler, though I'm not super wealthy or anything on that realm (just fairly geared).

Sweet thanks will do. Just been getting my resto druid geared and ready for Legion. I'm in a guild of about 15 real life friends. We all got back in it at the same time. What's the time on getting the legendary ring?

What's the point of doing normal when you can just do a couple arena games and get a better weapon?
Why is normal ilevel so low?
Naw still had a lot of fun in that year of dragon soul.

Depends on how far along you are. I wanna say it'll take like maybe 8-10 weeks if you do the weekly Apexis turn-ins and have the shipyard/garrison going. Longest part will be the tomes in Hellfire Citadel as there's no catchup mechanic for them.
And then you're gonna want to do mythic dungeons and save valor to upgrade the ring. Though gear upgrades are a priority if your gear is decent.
Because Blizzard are idiots. There was absolutely nothing wrong with how PvP/PvE gear worked in TBC.
~8 weeks sounds about right. I started the leg ring quests just after New Years on my druid alt, as in got the 640 ring on the 2nd or 3rd. The druid is 8/33 on the tomes as of last night, I missed a chance at a tome on some bosses due to already being saved to them prior to starting the tomes quest, probably another 3 clears to finish the tomes up.
edit: The tomes part of the quest chain is becoming a major pain, this is the 3rd ring I'm working on and idk if I can bother with doing hfc on another 7 characters for their rings. Hopefully they put in apexis/ship/garrison catchups for that part too.

I think I'd have to say Draenor is the worst expansion. Cata certainly had issues, but it did a few things that I really liked. The old world questing revamp was essential and well executed, and both new races are among my favorites from both factions. I remember being so pumped to play a Goblin Shaman.
The remaining expansions are all varying degrees of "very good" though. Pandaria is probably the best expansion when it comes to actual gameplay and mechanics, but I've never been terribly interested in the Pandaren as actual entities in Warcraft. If it had a setting that I cared more about it would probably be my overall favorite. I did really dig the Mantid, though.

The starter zones for Horde and Alliance in WoD have so much promise that just never gets delivered on.
I'm still disappointed that the Temple of Karabor was pretty much ignored except for the final Shadowmoon Valley quest. We go there like twice afterwards just to speak to the Prophet's ghost and that's about it, and that's just in a corner of the Temple, both times, same place. And that's all Alliance only. Horde never step foot in there as far as I know(not sure what happen with the legendary ring for them).
What a wasted potential. This place could have easily become another raid, with Nerzhul as the final boss. I mean, he was the freaking Lich King before the Lich King was even a thing. But nope, gotta have him has a 5 man boss instead, considering every other Warlords (except Grommash) became raid bosses, it's kind of a pathetic fate for him.
Lore-wise it's the worst thing about the expac IMO. Such a huge letdown for such a major character.
Fuck going back in time in an alternate universe if the best baddies are just dungeon fodder.
We only really got to fight 3 warlords in a raid setting and of those only Blackhand was the only one that got a fight deserving of his status. It is really disappointing how they handled the warlords in this expansion.
There were a few other warlords that were handled similarly to Ner'zhul; Garrosh was killed in a cut scene, Zaela was in a 5 man (I guess she's not technically a Draenor warlord,) Dharl was in a quest, and Azuka was in the garrison weekly quest chain.
