Today we are going to talk about Legion.  Blizzard’s release of the most confident expansion World of Warcraft fans have ever seen and how it’s bringing fans back in droves, even subscribers that have been gone for years.  

World of Warcraft is on the up-and-up, Blizzard Entertainment announced. When Legion launched on Aug. 30, it had sold through 3.3 million copies — an all-time high for the franchise, tying with the record set by the Cataclysm expansion in 2010.

Balancing player classes across both PvE and PvP in World of Warcraft has been a long-time struggle for Blizzard. They have to make sure that an ability is useful for dungeons and raids.  But not so powerful that it would give the character an unfair advantage in battlegrounds and arenas.

Blizzard’s solution in Legion is to offer a separate PvP talent system. As players earn Honor ranks, they can unlock special abilities.   These abilities only work in battleground and arenas. In addition to making PvP balance easier to attain.  This new system takes the focus away from grinding Honor and Conquest gear. Your choice of PvP talents and how you use them will matter more than your equipment.
