Legion Launch Timers

Recommended Posts

In a few hours, the sixth expansion of World of Warcraft will launch! Are you prepared?

Legion will launch earlier in Europe. It will launch on Tuesday midnight (0:00) CEST . So, if you live in the UK, this is Monday 23:00 pm and if you live in Eastern Europe, this is Tuesday 1:00 am. This hasn't been officially listed in an announcement, but it has been confirmed by two forum MVPs and a CM.

Αs far as the Americas and Australia/New Zealand are concerned, Blizzard has posted a proper announcement. The dungeons and raids schedule is also included; bear in mind that for Europe you will need to add one more day to the dates:

Blizzard LogoBlizzard Entertainment

World of Warcraft: Legion launches in North America at 12:00 am PDT on August 30. To help you keep track of all of the events that surround the launch, we’ve put together some additional times and dates you’ll want to note down.

Legion Launch in the Americas and Australia/New Zealand:

North America 12:00 am PDT
Latin America 12:00 am PDT/4:00 am BRT
Austraila/New Zealand 5:00 pm AEST
 

Legion PvP Season 1

The new PvP season begins September 20, but you'll be able to begin earning Honor right away with the launch of Legion. Learn more about the new PvP Honor and Prestige system here

Dungeons and Raids

Once the expansion is live, you’ll also want to mark your calendar for some additional dates of note:

  • Tuesday, August 30–When Legion is live, dungeons will immediately be available on Normal and Heroic difficulties. Mythic dungeon difficulty will become available at 8am PDT in alignment with the weekly dungeon reset time.
  • Tuesday, September 20–The Emerald Nightmare Raid dungeon opens on Normal and Heroic difficulties. Mythic Keystones will begin dropping which will allow increased challenge and rewards from Mythic dungeons.
  • Tuesday, September 27–Mythic difficulty for the Emerald Nightmare Raid dungeon opens. The first wing of Raid Finder difficulty for Emerald Nightmare opens.
  • Tuesday, October 11–Raid Finder Wing 2 of Emerald Nightmare opens.
  • Tuesday, October 25–Raid Finder Wing 3 of Emerald Nightmare opens.

We look forward to seeing you in the Broken Isles!

Hopefully this launch will be as smooth as possible! Enjoy Legion, everyone!

So let's hope for a better login experience this time! 

Since wrath of the lich king I haven't experienced a smooth launch day, specially since I play in a populated realm, hours and hours of queue time, lots of lag and dc, bugs. I don't care about bugs and lag as long as they don't stop me from leveling up, but queue time is a pain, I hope the queue time will be smooth as they promised.

Does anybody have word on this for EU servers?

I'm planning on skipping the next 2 days of WoW in favor of HS, because I fear the lagg of first and second day of a new Xpac...

In EU, at least, everything was very smooth this time. I was really impressed because my expectations were really low! I suggest you start playing immediately

Logged on NA this morning, it was really smooth! Since there's 4 "starting" zones for the broken isles, it did not feel overcrowded.

Pre-Expansion invasions werea  rather smooth rollout on Ravencrest, I was impressed.  I'm glad to hear initial reports have been... relatively favorable

Is that the best way to put it?

EU launch day was great, I'm playing in a very crowded realm. we didn't have queue time even at peak times. Everything is looking good so far as they promised, the lore, the login experience, I haven't even seen any bugs! (except one where the very first quest in the druid storyline had an item that only 1 person could loot, so for the first 5 minutes of the launch I was right clicking the item but it kept giving me an error :D hundrends of players were there trying to get it)

My hopes are so high for this expansion. ...fingers crossed!

      The new War Within Allied Races was added to the Alpha today and we already have a full look at not only all their customization options, but their dances as well, courtesy of MrGM! You can check out the Earthen's racial abilities here if you missed them earlier. 
      Let's start with the more dynamic feature, with both male and female dances:
      And then there's big amount of customization options, as well as a size comparison with regular dwarves:

      So, are we liking the new Allied Race overall? More than actual dwarves?

      Here's a really cool possibility for the War Within, as a very subtle and mildly mysterious comment from Executive Producer and Vice President for WoW, Holly Longdale, may be hinting at our Warband characters getting a lot more involved in our travels! 
      First spotted by UlthansWrath, Longdale came up to Taliesin & Evitel at the recent London War Within Alpha press event and had a short chat about the Warband screen, when she casually said "wouldn't it be cool if those were the characters you took as your followers in your Follower Dungeons?" After the obvious confirmation from Taliesin and Evitel that, yes, yes it would be cool, she just said "hm" and that was the end of the conversation.
      Obviously this isn't any sort of official confirmation, but considering this is a really awesome idea, it seems likely Blizzard are at the very least discussing it, if not already working on it.

      The Warband system is already great, and this would add a lot to it for players that choose to go solo into dungeons, as it would give them even more motivation to get some great characters in their Warband - even if it was just a cosmetic option.
      So, what do you think, will we be seeing this feature when the War Within launches?
