Player base for BlackOut is non-existent in Oceania. DO NOT BUY if you live in this region.

They tried a lot more with Legion than with Warlords of Draenor but they completely missed the mark in their two biggest draws; Legendaries and Artifact Weapons. The artifact system is very unforgiving, the catchup mechanics are only stop gaps and the later you join the expansion the farther you will be behind anyone. God forbid you want to change which character you 'main'. The weapons themselves could be done far better. There's only one iconic weapon that was made into an artifact (the Ashbringer) with most of the others being completely new additions to the world/lore of the game or weapons that were fairly obscure before hand. The hidden skin system is an absolute laugh as well. Most were simple affairs of RNG without much actual effort (or skill) to acquire. Then there is the legendary system, and the main problem with this entire expansion. In a game where you play to primarily play to increase the strength of your character by their items/gear, the system of Legendaries in Legion is an absolute farce. RNG baked into RNG and god forbid if you don't get a decent legendary and one of the extremely mediocre utility ones. The system is neither fair or balanced and the fact that someone at Blizzard got paid to design it is a joke. The legendary system is worse than Garrisons, another of those great ideas but completely wrong execution features in the game. Except Legion has only been out for less than 4 months and the current problem is far worse than what Garrisons did to Warlords of Draenor. I would contemplate returning for their first actual 'tier' of raid (they have purposely time gated it for some reason) but by that time I would be too far behind other people in Artifact Power, not to mention behind people with good legendaries, that it wouldn't be worth it. Even the World Quest system is boring and quite buggy, with quests not showing up on your map or actual bugs where you can't complete them or what not since launch that have not been fixed. Also, every other week it seems like a bunch of people get banned for 'exploiting' bugs that Blizzard implements in their game without checking. All in all, I give Legion a 3. For trying. But there are already way too many flaws to consider this even a 'good addition' to the Warcraft franchise

Shadow of its former self now. Customer Assistance is also beyond a joke after all their lay offs, ontop of that the reps I've dealt with have been dismissive and unhelpful.
