I miss Legion

People do see Legion with rose-colored glasses. They remember 7.2/7.3 Legion, not 7.0/7.1 Legion with the legendary lottery and people rerolling because they got the wrong ones. So it ended well but there were lots of problems at the start.

But at this point, I miss DF. Why?

  • It’s not fun to play tank in queued content (including TW);
  • TW tuning is busted where you get two-shot by trash (as a non-tank);
  • The whole 200 badge thing was a change nobody asked for nor needed. I say this as someone unaffected (~300K badges);
  • Nerfing Longstrider, which was nice for farming legacy content (BFA and earlier obviously). Remix has shown that it doesn’t matter if people run around at 200% speed. Just let us;
  • Nerfing Speed (again);
  • WQ rewards giving random stats. I so enjoy all the Vers/Mastery gear I got as a BM Hunter;
  • My preferred spec (BM Hunter) got nerfed into oblivion in prepatch randomly. No I don’t care about single-target damage and even if you do, it’s getting nerfed to “pay” for the AE damage boost come 11.0.5 (based on latest builds);
  • Because of the spec nerf everything just feels like it’s more tedious than it should be. Everything is a chore now. Did I mention I miss Remix?
  • The 70-80 TW XP nerf is just horrendous;
  • Scaling TW dungeons to your level (in 11.0.5) has completely destroyed a community of people who spent time farming TW gear. For fun, basically. This didn’t hurt anyone and 11.0.5 will completely destroy it. So that 10-30s can queue TW. I’d rather not have that;
  • PREDICTION: TW in 11.0.5 is going to be so busted with XP-locked twinks.
  • TWW WQs are so much worse than anything in the last 4 expansions (other than the BFA turtle WQs). So many have you competing for groudn spawns or mobs with really low respawns. So many of them don’t give you group credit either if you happen to want to do activities with someone.
  • Renown just seems like so much more of a grind. I honestly didn’t like this change in DF and preferred the SL Renown system;
  • Underground. Ugh. I hate the aesthetic.
  • I don’t like any of the weekly activities. Like at all. DF did such a better job here.

This is rapidly turning into a Remix waiting room for me. Bring on 11.2 Legion Remix.
