They literally said nothing about Argus. Wouldn't read into it at all. 7.3?next xpac? Who knows. That panel was the most hype non expansion announcement panel they've ever done.

Okay. I am hyped as fuck for about everything.

My guess is 7.1.5 hits near the end of this year or early next year, then Nighthold unlocks early next year, PTR will be 3-4 months (so March-May, depening on when Nighthold launches), 7.2 will be released but the raid will release maybe 1 month later, to give raiders more time to finish up Nighthold and because of the unlocking of the tomb which will probably take a few weeks.

They said all the right things in that panel. Let's see if they actually deliver.

Keeping the dungeons relevant was probably the most important bit for me. Dungeons becoming irrelevant was always one of WoW's biggest flaw.

So someone correct me if I'm wrong as I'm still catching up, but Karazhan (and CoS and Arcway) are going into the LFG tool?

As heroics I would assume?

Seems that way. At least, therey're going to split Kara into Upper and Lower, and make M+ and Heroic versions, so I assume the Heroic one would fall into LFG.

Neat! Happy to hear. I do enjoy the occasional mythic but I'll be honest I haven't even bothered to try Karazhan since people tend to want sky high ilevels and stuff.

The hell is that Hunter mount? Can it even fly?

All the other stuff sounds really good.

I hope they really fix certain things about MM and BM that I hate a lot.
Like Sidewinders.

They haven't said 7.3 they said it'll be "after". Probably an expac. Too many things to do there
I mean...they're probably not going to have unrelated stuff between the Tomb of Sargeras and going to Argus. You can't just stick a troll raid in there.

Its pretty much confirmed as a raid tier since they said a while ago that Legion will have 3 big raid tiers (EN/NH 7.0/7.1, Tomb of Sargeras 7.2 and Argus 7.3?).

But who said that we will win against the Legion on Argus?
It could also end in a disaster and we are utterly defeated by Sargeras.

We haven't had fel-trolls yet, have we?

re-building the Exodar will be a whole patch cycle, i'm sure.

The trolls made off with a critical piece of the Exodar's engine!

Man, if this continues Legion really will become the best WoW expansion. And I can't wait for the new Brawler's guild! :D

All the talk about new skins made me excited, then I realize they are just the skins already available to see on wowhead but with no confirmed drop yet. I've seen all these 3-4 months ago! Boo, excited for nothing! Oh shit wait that guardian form is new, looks kinda goofy though, monkeybear hoo.

(Plenty excited about other stuff though hah)

If we're going to Argus it's to kill KJ.

Illidan's original plan was exactly that, and Sargeras is kinda bigger than a planet, so...

Guardian druids were shown, though, weren't they? The were-bear thing.

the new guardian form is the warebear

KJ is confirmed to be the last boss in Tomb tho, and I doubt they would do him twice back to back

Shadow Priests got fucked over with that mount too.

I dunno, I think it'll be lovely when the shadow effect is applied to it via the glyph. But if not, well, shadow priests always have been the red headed step child when it comes to priest aesthetic.

I did a pug kara that only got the first boss down. If I want to join another group fresh, would there be any issues? I assume I cannot loot the first boss again but am I able to do it with them?

Ah, I didn't see that (at work and can't follow). Interesting. I really doubt they'll have us kill an actual titan.

And barrage. Still upset that shit made it into the game the way it is. Like someone saw that and was like "nailed it" and everyone else agreed.
 
Very happy to see flying unlocked will be account wide. Hopefully that is for all zones to make leveling up some alts better in WOD and other legacy content.

Although now... I almost regret going Demon Hunter instead of keeping with my druid! Flight Form is one of my most favorite things about the druid.... but I gotta admit those new forms are HOT.

I think they mean it'll be unlocked for all your alts on the Broken Isles.

The rest of the world will be like it has been. You unlock flying at 60, etc.

So I imagine you'd need to unlock it for WoD as well.

My only disappointment is they didn't mention anything about new casting animations.

I was hoping we would get something on that.

For one, they're returning Traps to other Hunter specs. And Shroud of Concealement is coming back to all rogues.

Yay to the former, boo to the latter. I quite enjoyed arena now that every rogue team didn't get a free stealth opener 100% of the time... Shroud was complete cancer for arenas and I wish they could bring it back but completely exclude it from PvP (and this is from someone who played 100% of WoD games with a rogue friend)

Brawler's guild yay !

Fuck yes, my absolute favorite content in WoW. A little concerned about how it will balance out this time though since I will only have a tank artifact but plenty of time to iron that out.

Mages and Paladins got really shafted with their mounts.

Moderately happy to be a Hunter right now.
