The time has come to embark on your quest to the Broken Isles, to seek out and master Artifact weapons of legendary might, and to rally like-minded champions to your cause in your Class Hall. In this desperate hour, you must also strike a forbidden pact with the outcast Demon Hunters of the Illidari, fel-twisted disciples of the dreaded Illidan the Betrayer. Should you fail . . . worlds will burn.
Legion includes:

• Maximum level increased to 110.
• New zones to explore.
• New PvP Prestige and Honor Talents system.
• New dungeons and raids.
• World Quests.
• New Battle Pets.
• Profession updates.

• Unlocked appearances are account-wide and usable for transmogrification by other characters that can equip the item.
• When first logging into a character after Patch 7.0, the appearances of appropriate items in your bags, bank, and Void Storage are learned automatically. Additional appearances will be unlocked based on previously-completed quests.
• Transmogrifiers located in most major cities have been improved with additional features.
  • Got a look that you like? Save the entire transmogrification set as an outfit. Create and swap between outfits at the Transmogrifier.

Equalized PvP Gear

• Gear has been normalized in PvP combat. Characters entering a Skirmish Arena, Battleground, Rated Arena, Rated Battleground, or Ashran now receive an aura called Principles of War.
• Principles of War removes all stats gained from gear (Strength, Stamina, Haste, etc.), disables gear related bonuses (like trinket effects and set bonuses), and gives the character stats based on their specializations, and increases based on overall item level. The goal is to provide a much more finely tuned and balanced PvP experience.

World of Warcraft Legion Beta patch notes are here! Patch note highlights include.

Arenas

• The 5v5 Arena bracket has been retired. 'Arena Master' achievement has been converted into a Feat of Strength.

Battlegrounds

• Queueing for a random Battleground and winning with a character below level 110 now awards a Crate of Battlefield Goods. Players on the opposing team also have a chance to receive a crate with an increasing chance based on team score at the end of a match. The crate contains a piece of armor appropriate for the character’s level and specialization with a chance for the crate to contain additional rewards such as weapons or relics.

Hellfire Citadel

• Enemies on Normal, Heroic, and Mythic difficulty now deal roughly 30% less damage.

Legacy

• Normalized gold from Legacy raids prior to Warlords of Draenor. Heroic difficulty Cataclysm Raids now award less gold than before, while raids from Mists of Pandaria and Wrath of the Lich King will now award more gold.
