This October get ready to team back up with the infinite dragon Eternus, as she is ready to learn more about the history of Azeroth. Just like in Mists of Pandaria Remix, Eternus is throwing us into the deep end to figure out what led to the current events in the present day.
What is Legion Remix?
Legion Remix is a limited-time event that lets you roll a Timerunner—a brand-new character from any of the 12 Legion classes—and blast through the entire Legion expansion at breakneck speeds. Along the way you'll use a new power system based on the new updated version of the Artifact Weapon system. unlike the Cloak and Gem system used in MoP Remix.
Who Has Access to Legion Remix?
The best part? Everyone can join in. You don’t need to own the current expansion of WoW—just an active World of Warcraft subscription or game time. Even Classic players can dive into the Broken Isles by simply installing the modern WoW client. And if you’re on a WoW Trial account, you can still test-drive Legion Remix up to level 20 for free. To keep going beyond that, you’ll just need to pick up a subscription or game time.
What's New in Legion Remix?
Remixed Artifact Weapons
Just like in the original release of World of Warcraft: Legion, Artifact Weapons are the backbone of the entire character progression system, but this time there is a huge twist.
Unified Trait Tree -All Artifacts share a single progression system with five distinct paths: Nature, Fel, Arcane, Storm, and Holy.
Full Flexibility - You’re never locked in. Respec any time using the new Quick Assign feature:
Ctrl-click to quickly invest Infinite Power along a path.
Ctrl-right click to refund traits back to a chosen point.
Jewelry Customization - Rings and necklaces add extra depth by:
Adding ranks to traits in any path.
Borrowing ranks from other paths.
Pushing your favorite path beyond its usual limits.
Heroic World Tiers
For those who enjoy open world content, Blizzard took a page out of their Diablo playbook and added "Heroic World Tier" for a more challenging experience while navigating the Broken Isles.
What It Does - Enemies in outdoor zones gain more health, deal more damage, and can receive Affix-like buffs for extra variety.
Lore Tie-In - Eternus empowers creatures as a test of Azeroth’s champions, pushing players to adapt.
Why Play It - Defeating empowered foes offers greater rewards, making Heroic World Tier ideal for those who want outdoor content to feel more like a raid-lite challenge.
Timewarped Obelisks

Scattered around the Broken Isles are Timewarped Obelisks, giant objects that offer powerful, yet temporary, buffs.
Timeworn Keystone Dungeons
For all you M+ lovers out there, go back to where the entire Mythic Keystone system started, and revisit the first incarnation of the M+ system, but a new twist.
Classic Affixes Return - Most of Legion’s original affixes are back.
New Challenges - Four brand-new affixes, themed as Eternus’s Trials, add something fresh to the Remix event.
Appeal -These dungeons combine nostalgia with novelty, giving both veterans and newcomers a fresh Mythic+ experience.
Infinite Research
Blizzard understands that not everyone can play every single day, so they have prepared for that with Infinite Research, a way to progress at your own pace with multiple ways of progressing your character.
Daily Assignments - Tasks include slaying demons, completing dungeons, collecting Bronze orbs while skyriding, and more.
