Now that the event is over, we can finally look back at the experience we had with World of Warcraft<\/a> Remix: Mists of Pandaria<\/a><\/em> over the past three months. Fun times were had — overpowered<\/em> times, one-shotting mobs we had no business one-shotting, leveling supersonically via chain dungeon-running, repeating the first wing of Mogu’shan Vaults until our eyes bled for that +7% XP thread — spending more time on the queue than on the raid itself — and collecting Bronze and turning it into rewards.<\/p>\n

The experience was certainly novel, not just because our characters were very powerful, but also because we got to use abilities like Blink<\/a> on our Death Knights, and we got to have our Rogues drop meteors<\/a> on enemies. We could just quest like we did in Pandaria originally, revisiting those stories, or we could run raids while leveling. We could re-experience questlines that came in content patches such as Landfall and the Isle of Thunder and collect unique class ensembles from that. We got a plethora of new mounts that were cool new recolors of old Pandaria favorites, and even the ability to spend some extra Bronze on that elusive Son of Galleon<\/a> that eluded you all these years.<\/p>\n

With the event concluding, our Timerunning characters have now been integrated into our regular rosters — and that’s another plus for a lot of people. Many players used the event to make a new character or two (or seven), perhaps trying out classes or races they hadn’t leveled before — or even having the experience of leveling a Dracthyr Evoker from a low level for the first time ever. Given how fast leveling was in Remix — especially if you were lucky and got placed into one of those crazy speedrunning dungeon groups — more people than ever now have an army of alts to call their own with Remists<\/em> to thank for that.<\/p>\n

So I have to ask: what was your experience like? Did you enjoy your time revisiting a remixed Pandaria? What were your favorite activities and rewards? What would you have done differently, and which changes do you wish Blizzard would implement for next time? And where<\/em> do you want them to take us next time?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
