Iā€™m wondering thoughā€¦

Since Frost is getting a 2 hander, what about Legion?

If Iā€™m ALLOWED to use a 2 hander, but I go to Legion to level, wonā€™t I basically HAVE to use the twin blades?

Iā€™m interested to know how that is going to work.

Thank you!!! Some of us fought hard and won. It seems others may be a little salty over this victory. Oh well, that doesnā€™t change the outcome! The Return of 2H Frost aka The True Frost DK Class Fantasy will be a day long remembered! :grin: :clap: :raised_hands:

I canā€™t wait for Shadowlands! See you all there!

Good Question, I wonder how they will address Legion Artifact weapons? I wonder if we will be allowed to use the 1H appearance as a 2h or if we will just use normal transmogs as 2h. It will be interesting to see what direction they decide to take.

Either way, iā€™m excited to play this play style again.

Iā€™m looking forward to it as well.

I love playing Frost on my DK (though I admit Blood DK is my first love), but dual wield just always feels WEIRD. I mean, Arthas had a giant two handed swordā€¦ whereā€™s mine?

Iā€™ve just always felt that at least for Frost, it should have always been two handed.

Looking forward to it already. Time to start cooking up some frosty 2H mogs.

you donā€™t need the artifacts to play legion, like at all. You can play with green itens/heirloons just fine.

If you want to, the artifact will be more easy/accessible, but not even close to necessary

Thatā€™s now.

In Shadowlands, the leveling will be different. You might actually need them.

It might NOT be necessary, but you canā€™t take what we have NOW, to judge what is COMING.

with the new leveling it will be even less necessary.

Artifacts are just normal weapons now, you donā€™t get artifact powers anymore, you donā€™t empower with relics, nothing.

Rly, donā€™t try to rain in the fiesta

Since the artifacts from Legion no longer possess their artifact abilities, they are just regular weapons that can use artifact gems to increase their item level. You do not actually need them anymore.

Honestly, we donā€™t know if thatā€™s true at this point or not.

You may not get the powers now but in order to level SOLELY in Legion, they might have to reinstate them.

The truth is, we just donā€™t know yet.

Getting it back is only half the problem. It needs to be balanced with dw and with this no talent team it will be a disaster

there is no reason for that, both logistically and from a lore standpoint.

Legion is old content, regardless of the new level system, those things are features while the expansion was current, Artifacts are dead and gone, if you didnā€™t in that time, you canā€™t toy with then now.

That is a very good question since weapons donā€™t really drop in Legion content and some players might not have heirloom weapons.

I used heirloom weapons and only equipped the artifact when the storyline required it.

What Iā€™d love to see is the ability to reforge the artifact into a 2h like it should be.

Another option would be to remove the spec restrictions on artifacts so that we can use the unholy one.

They could also find a way to add weapon drops to Legion, although tbh I think thatā€™s unlikely.

dw isnā€™t being removed so you could just be stuck with the frost Legion artifact as is until you get a better 2h weapon. Iā€™d really like to see a 2h option for levelling through Legion if you donā€™t have a heirloom weapon though.

I am pretty sure they are not going to revamp old quests just to make this mandatory, they already changed it at the end of Legion to work without the artifact weapons, why would they go out of their way to force people to use them? (this would have to be for WW and BM monks too)

Artifact weapon quests are a fun bit of Lore and a side adventure should you want to pursue them.

I bet all loot is just normalized across all expansions for 10-50 zones (or however it is broken down), so you wonā€™t have to worry about missing out on getting 2H swords as a frost DK.

Fineā€¦ I guess Iā€™ll join the hype train too. 2H FROST!@$#!@$@#!%!#$%!#$%T! #$YEEESSSHHHHHH!!!

Which is the main reason they went to one style in the first placeā€¦

I am so glad two handed frost is back, itā€™s been a wild couple of years not having it, congratulations to everyone who made your voices heard!
