Hi All,

Just recently we've launched beta testing for a Legion 7.3.5 community project, focused on quality-of-life improvements for Spanish and Portuguese players, including better routing and lower latency for players from South America and nearby regions.

We are glad to say that the open beta is going well, with a surprising number of people joining in. World chats are becoming very lively :)

This is not a final launch announcement yet. The current goal is to let more people join, test the realm, report issues, check the client setup, and help us understand what still needs work before moving toward a more serious progressive release.

What we are looking for during beta

• client installation and connection feedback
• early leveling flow
• class and spell issues
• dungeon and PvE testing
• allied race testing
• Hardcore mode feedback
• missing or mistranslated text
• broken quests, visual bugs and progression blockers
• general feedback from ES/PT players who want a community-focused Legion realm
• ping or proxy issues

How to start

A how-to-start guide is available on our website:

Community

We've also recently set up Discord while taking precautions against possible information leaks, which is why it took longer than expected. Sorry for that!

Consider joining us and our growing community there too:

Our Stoat community, for players who prefer a Discord alternative:

P.S.

We are currently working on developing a proper launcher to provide a smoother client setup experience, so stay tuned for that.

Short ES/PT note

ES: La beta ya está abierta. Buscamos jugadores que quieran probar el proyecto, reportar errores y ayudar con feedback antes de una futura apertura progresiva.

PT: A beta já está aberta. Procuramos jogadores para testar o projeto, reportar problemas e ajudar com feedback antes de uma futura abertura progressiva.

¡Hola a todos!

Hemos abierto el reino beta de UwowSA Legion y buscamos jugadores que quieran ayudarnos a pulir el servidor antes del lanzamiento completo.

El proyecto está enfocado principalmente en la comunidad hispana y portuguesa, pero cualquier jugador que quiera probar Legion y compartir comentarios es bienvenido.

¿Qué está disponible ahora?

El reino beta ya está abierto. Puedes entrar, crear un personaje, probar el cliente y ayudarnos a revisar:

• jugabilidad de Legion 7.3.5
• subida de nivel inicial y zonas de inicio
• habilidades de clase y artefactos
• mazmorras y progresión PvE inicial
• archivos personalizados del cliente
• razas aliadas
• sistemas del modo Hardcore
• errores, textos faltantes, problemas visuales y bloqueos de progreso

Esta todavía no es la apertura final del reino. La beta existe para corregir problemas junto con la comunidad antes de abrir el reino progresivo principal.

¿Qué planeamos después de la beta?

Después de la beta, planeamos abrir un reino progresivo de Legion con contenido desbloqueado por etapas.

La dirección planeada:

• experiencia: x5
• botín, reputación y sistemas principales: x1
• tipo de reino: PvP
• reinicio de bandas: 1 semana
• Horda y Alianza unidas para facilitar grupos
• donaciones en modo limitado
• progresión de bandas y carrera PvE
• temporadas de Mythic+
• temporadas de arena
• modo de desafío Hardcore
• sistemas de clases y mazmorras al estilo Legion 7.3.5

La primera etapa de progresión está planeada alrededor de Pesadilla Esmeralda, temporada 1 de arena y temporada 1 de Mythic+. Las fechas exactas y los detalles finales se anunciarán por separado después de recibir comentarios de la beta.

Modo Hardcore

También estamos preparando un modo Hardcore para jugadores que quieran un reto más estricto.

La idea es simple: empezar en nivel 1, progresar con experiencia x1, sin ayudas externas, sin atajos mediante subasta o correo, sin PvP de mundo abierto y sobrevivir bajo reglas especiales.

¿Por qué entrar a la beta?

Porque tus comentarios pueden influir directamente en el lanzamiento completo del reino.

Si te gusta Legion, probar servidores privados, la progresión PvE, Mythic+, las carreras de banda o los retos Hardcore, eres bienvenido a entrar y ayudarnos a dar forma al proyecto.

PvP Revamp: Proper progression and redesign!

We've decided to implement drastic changes to the old, very grindy and outdated Legion PvP system, because it was both missing proper rewards and proper progression. Truth be told, this part of Legion was ignored for way too long, both by Blizzard and by the pservers owners.

Thanks to our unique changes, Legion PvP systems were refreshed with proper gear progression, removal of PvP-talent grind, and many other improvements:

• Faster progression with instantly-unlocked PvP-talents, for we don't want our players endlessly grinding to have essential tools for their class to be capable in PvP.
• Removed PvP-Templates completely: players are now able to distribute their stats for PvP according to their own wishes.
• Implemented new currencies - Conquest points and Honor points.
  • Honor points are acquired from most PvP activities, and in bulk as a reward for winning Battleground matches.
  • Conquest points are acquired for winning Battlegrounds and for Arena matches.
• Implemented new PvP vendors, selling Sparks (more on those later), Legendaries, along with custom-made PvP gear with adjustable stats, featuring a new stat - Resilience.
  • Resilience offers a way of reducing damage players take in PvP combat.
  • PvP-gear is sold for Honor and Conquest points.
  • With the removal of Blizzard's PvP-Template, keep in mind that stats now directly affect your build and playstyle.
• New way of improving your gear - Sparks!
  • Sparks allow players to gradually upgrade their gear to match the item level of originally more powerful pieces.
  • Sparks are sold by PvP vendors in Broken Isles Dalaran for Honor points (as well as for Wakening Essences for PvE, but more about those later)
• Implemented Echoes of Domination and Echoes of Battle currencies.
  • Echoes can be spent on many PvP cosmetic items, including Mounts and Tabards, as well as on PvP gear pieces.
  • Vendors for both can be found in PvP vendor area in Broken Isles Dalaran.
• Handy custom Ladder, allowing players to watch replays and track their advancements on a leaderboard of PvP performers in real time.
• Class changes, to spice up old gameplay and meta!
• New Arena maps from Battle for Azeroth expansion - Mugambala and Hook Point

PvE changes

We've re-implemented original Legion progression loop by introducing Wakening Essences as more of a general-purpose PvE currency with more ways of obtaining it, all while allowing it to be spent on gear upgrades, specific (as opposed to random) Legendary items, and on many other custom additions to streamline character progression.

You can acquire Wakening Essences from almost any PvE activity, such as World quests and World bosses, Argus Invasion Points, Emissary quests, or Dungeons and Raids.

Now, more about general system changes:

• Legendary items
  • Players can now buy specific Legendary items, instead of only random ones.
  • Reduced the price of Purified Titan Essence by 50%
  • Purified Titan Essence is now Account-bound, instead of Soulbound (so can be mailed to other characters on your account).
• Added several Battle for Azeroth and Draenor Dungeons to Legion Mythic+ rotation, all while applying many Mythic+ balance changes from Dragonflight:
  • Freehold - a haven for pirates, scoundrels, and now - the savage Irontide Raiders.
  • The Underrot - purge the blight corruption before it's influence spreads further.
  • The Everbloom - sever the portal link before Gorgrond botani make it to Azeroth.
  • Shadowmoon Burial Grounds - put an end to Ner'zhul's depraved, dark rituals.
  • Grimrail Depot - disrupt the Iron Horde plans and protect Shattrath before it's too late.
• New custom Mythic+ Affix - Tyrannically Fortified!
  • Boss health increased by 30%.
  • Enemy mobs health and damage increased by 20%.
  • Damage of bosses and mobs capped at 700% increase, no matter the keystone level.
• Introduced raid size scaling for Mythic difficulty Raids, allowing groups from 10 and up to 20 players.
• Titan and War-forging removed, instead we've implemented Sparks to allow for a step-by-step gear upgrade:
  • [Small Spark] increases an item's item level by 5, can only be applied to gear intended for maximum level characters and below 930 item level.
  • Other Sparks can be applied on specific gear upgrade levels, increasing gear piece's item level by 5 each time.
• Custom Mythic+ dungeon finder, supporting keystones of levels from 2 up to 15
  • Allows to search in a specific keystone level range
  • Allows to search for Mythic+ even if you yourself do not possess a keystone
• Unique rewards for Mythic+ and Raids LFG runs
  • Various Mounts, Achievements, Toys, custom currency to spend on QoL and other cosmetics!
