Which is why you don't really hear it that often anymore.
The base game includes everything except the most recent expansion. Legion is just Legion, you need the base game as well.
If you have the base game already you should only need to buy Legion.
But someone has to tell people where mankrik's wife is.
Right but it says 19.99 to purchase. I've only ever had one Blizzard account and it's a good 5 years I had owned it.
Are you able to log in and play? If you already bought the base game previously you should own everything up to WoD. I'm not 100% positive, but in pretty sure that's how it works.
In-game or in the shop? The shop will show it no matter what, in-game it will only show if you are on a trial account AFAIK.
Okay, I just checked my account and it does say that I own it. Says "product level: Warlords of Dreanor"...so I guess I'm good. I guess it showing a purchase price for the base game threw me off.
If that's all that mattered they would have never made any changes to the gearing and loot system.
Probably when 8.0 drops, which will be a month or two before the expansion unlocks.
So realistically, I got at least half a year? Looks super intimidating. Any advice where I should be in terms of ilvl and confidence in my class before taking the challenge on?
Yeah, I don't see the expansion coming out until August at the very earliest, which means 8.0 probably end of June at the earliest.
You get what was top tier gear a couple of months ago just for showing up to the new questing zone so you'll be fine on that front.
Shadow Priest requires a lot of buildup to start doing damage so it's typically not seen as a great leveling spec. Additionally that makes it also not be a great dungeon spec since until much higher M+, things don't stay alive very long.
Thanks! Somehow, reading the wowhead guide made me even more anxious about this. I'm an affliction warlock, gotta have that edgelord scythe.
IIRC, Aff is a LOT easier with the right legendaries, but you can also bug it out and make it a lot easier.
They've nixed the required gathering tools not too long ago. Don't remember when. You can still use weapons/items that give you a boost but you don't need to carry a tool in your bag anymore.
Lies! There were no heroics back then. ;)
