    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros
    - This was a return to the peak of Class Identity, with your own order hall, class campaign and even a mount!
    - Unlike popular opinion, I actually felt that artefact weapons were one of the best systems in modern WoW
    - Successfully ended / put on hold the majority of interesting story arcs, Illidan Sargeras, Kil'Jaeden, Varian, Gul'Dan, Xavius, Argus, The Legion. Velen, Tirion, Malfurion, Tyrande, Magni, The Titans.
    - The mage tower is one of the best content additions in WoW ever and I am baffled as to why there isn't more challenging solo content.
    - Each raid was Atleast A tier. Nighthold and Antorus were S tier.
    - The Transmog in Legion is still better than most of the Transmog in BFA, SL and DF.
    - Each dungeon was high quality. With the possible exception of Seat of the Triumvirate due to the sheer amount of trash mobs.
    - The cinematics were top quality.

    Cons
    - The Demon Hunter Class was unfortunately spawned from this expansion. Adhering to edgelord players and being low skill ceiling high skill floor balanced.
    - As with every expansion in WoW, the tuning was awful and ill-thought. Argus was too easy for an end boss, Kil'jaeden and Fallen Avatar were too hard. No spec felt closely tuned to one another.
    - A lot of add-on and weak-aura utilisation was formed from this expansion, Add-ons are what ruins WoW.
    - Legendary Acquisition felt awful, random drops doing any content and being time-gated is the last thing a player needs when they receive a legendary which is bad, as this meant their next could be weeks/months away.

    One of the better expansions for World of Warcraft, has a fairly strong story for once. The whole MMO could have ended on a good note here.

    Legion took me back to the times of World of Warcraft’s greatest splendor, to the era of The Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King. It miraculously revived a game that was already dead to me. [11/2016, p.44]

    For the first time in years, it's easy to meet up with other players, drawn together by enticing new stories. [December 2016, p.120]

    An exhilarating return to Azeroth. World of Warcraft is as polished as ever and the newest expansion adds a few neat tweaks to the familiar formula. [Oct 2016]
