The Burning Legion will invade Azeroth for a 2nd time
What we know about the World of Warcraft Legion Pre-Expansion Patch is that a few weeks before Legion launches there will be a large invasion of Burning Legion demons. During this pre-patch we will embark on a mission to stop the Burning Legion from invading Azeroth. The Broken Shore has a 20 Alliance and 20 Horde (40 Player) scenario that begins right after the cinematic. The Legion pre-launch event will be similar to the Scourge Invasion that took place before the Wrath of the Lich King expansion launched.

9 Things to Know:

  • The Broken Shore scenario picks up exactly where the cinematic leaves off.
  • There is a massive joint Horde and Alliance assault on the Tomb of Sargeras.
  • In the patch before Legion, there will be a demon invasion of our world, with invasions happening all over the world.
  • The forces of Azeroth decide that they need to launch a counterattack and cut off the corruption at its source.
  • Players will get on ships and arrive at a beach assault that has different stages. The stages are completed by the raid group as a whole, you are destroying Legion fortifications, killing demons, killing their major lieutenants and generals as you fight your way up the hill from the beach to the foot of the Tomb of Sargeras. When you get there, there will be some fateful and eventful things that they don't want to spoil yet, but you do not completely succeed at stopping the Legion invasion. All of this will be playable during the pre-expansion patch.
  • The Broken Shore scenario is flexible, scaling anywhere from 1 to 20 players, so when there aren't as many people starting later in the expansion it will wait for a few minutes and then start, maybe with additional NPCs to keep the epic feeling.
  • The pre expansion patch is on a similar timeline to previous expansions.
  • There will be a pre-release patch coming out a few weeks prior to the Broken Isles becoming accessible, which will include the invasion events.
  • Anyone who has pre-purchased Legion will be able to make their Demon Hunter and play through their starting experience during this patch.

More information will be revealed about the Legion Pre-Expansion event in time. There is talk amongst the community that the Blessed Regalia set(a set only available during the Scourge event) may come back during the Legion invasion.
