All 170 WoW Legion Artifact Weapon (Skins & Color Variants!)

hey everyone and welcome back to another video today I'm going to be looking at every single artifact weapon that's coming in Legion or at the very least every single one that has been data mined if you want to go to a specific class then hit up the video description there will be tank code link thingies to every single class lastly this video ends not being pretty crazy to put together so if you want to do anything in it around that like button it would be pretty cool anyway let's get right into the meat of the content first up we've got the MA of the Damned and I've gotta say this thing is looking pretty damn vicious what I really like in terms of the detailing is those little lines of red they're going up inside every single one of the spikes now it doesn't actually look like the biggest weapon ever three codes are solid but maybe a little bit more HAP's to a troop would be nice still we haven't actually seen it on a character model now next we've got this other version of the Mars the Damned it's essentially the same as the last one but what they've essentially done is just put some more metal in between the different spikes from what I gather you get this once you hit level 110 it's kind of like an upgraded visual version of the original more of the Damned and definitely a very nice looking weapon next up we have got this extremely extremely cool version of it it's it's usually made of bone but the bones kinda like twist it up it's a bit hollow looking so it doesn't maybe look like the most practical weapon I'd say this thing would shatter in an instant but absolutely very impressive from an artistic standpoint as are all of the different color variants once again we've got another very cool one this definitely looks like more of a scythe and as you'll probably come to realize in this video I really like sights lots of variation sort of harsh edge is very slicey looking it looks brutal and there's a lot of strong color on it as well this is absolutely another one which is going down very good in my book great to see so many color variants as well that really does mean you're going to have something to go with every transmog this next one is more of a it kind of looks like a mixture of an accent like a polearm and something else kind of like a short pole arm i suppose and again definitely very cool looking that legion of esque version the green one might be my favorite I think that's very cool and there are one or two death my things which I think might actually so next we've got the the blades but you're going to be forging out of Frostmourne you'll be wearing two of these so this base version is it's definitely quite cool it's a little bit pared down a little bit small nothing particularly crazy about it but it's definitely a very solid runeblade now we move on to this next one which appears to be a more upgraded version of it and by upgraded essentially the thing is covered in ice while it's for Frost DK so that does make a good bit of sense very very cool though I think this one's a little bit better than the last one it's just got more heft to it I think though it is a little bit hard to see some of the runes in the centre lots of very cool color variants though some of the warmer ones make a bit less sense to me as a DK weapon and this next one is far more large and imposing looking I don't think it's as cool in some ways but I really like how if you look at the skull the spell effect is kind of coming down out of the skull into the tip of the blade now this version is a little bit more mundane and that it's not as crazy and glowy but I can't see a lot of people liking it because it is a bit less crazy and glowy good sort of sharp cutting edge as well and some of the outlines around the skull are particularly cool next we've got this which is a little bit more bone looking it also seems to share some of the spell effects of some of the the knotty Oaks are on the Mists of Pandaria shot on it I think it's pretty cool and next up we've got unholy now there's an Holy One Daphne looks like more of a traditional death Knight runeblade in the kind of like vanilla Warcraft 3 ish sense to me definitely quite nice and there's actually some similarities between that version and the the ashbringer next though we've got this one which very much looks like unholy it just looks like it's dripping with plague I think an extremely cool weapon nice animations to gives a little bit of visual sparkle and flare I think that's definitely a very strong choice though that red one is particularly evil looking next we've got apocalypse so this is strange a part of it looks almost organic but then it also can looks like melted rock and benzos pour down the blade I think it's very cool you've also got these little and these little spell effects on it which appear to be like glow flies or something that's quite cool next we've got another version of Apocalypse this one looks like it's infected with something I suppose that does make sense it's unholy it's all about plagues and things like that overall a pretty solid weapon though it's maybe not as good in my book or some of the previous ones now this one is very unique it's taking and it's taking the weapon and making it a little bit more sort of sight like in its ads that blue one especially is really doing it for me I've got to say this is probably gonna favor it unholy one it just looks unique and different and hopefully there will be some good marks to go with it so next up we've got the paladin starting off the retribution and the ashbringer well it's the ashbringer you pretty much all know what it looks like that said seeing it all nice and high-res is definitely very nice it's a very cartoonish fantasy ish weapon I think that definitely works it's overall really really cool looking now this version of a Springer is shattered but held together by some sort of bizarre electricity I do think it looks quite nice there's something about it which doesn't feel super ashbringer ish though but certainly it's a very cool and very cool very another weapon and perhaps if you have some nice alec sort of electric animated shoulders it would look great now this next one here is quite similar to the previous version of the ashbringer it's just a bit kind of hyped up if you know what I mean they've added a little bit more sparkle to it change the edge of the blade slightly it's good it's more just a slight Sam I don't wanna say improving because I kind of prefer the other version but it's the same but with a little bit more now this next version it it isn't really doing much for me as far as being a retribution weapon because it doesn't really look like the ashbringer it doesn't really look like a paladin weapon it looks almost more death knight ish yeah you can see the little circle with the ashbringer thing like sits and glows but not really doing it for me next we've got the Silver Hand yeah this is very very cool it's going to be used by the holy paladin's and I've got to say this first like just main version of it it looks imposing it looks almost too dangerous to be holy but I think it's a very evocative and strong looking weapon now this animated version is once again looking pretty damn nice I was like aglow in a weapon I think it makes it a bit more visually interesting from time to time some very solid color variations as well this will definitely go with quite a few things even got a purple one which might go with something more crystalline transmog now this one is on fire and I think it is extremely cool-looking if you are going for a fire paladin maybe using some of that fire Lance gear then this is going to look super strong next we've got this purple version now this is strange it's not really doing as much for me because it's a little bit more muted it's kind of less out there but it is still a very very big hammer and I think people like the idea of just a very very big hammer again though even with three colours it just doesn't have the vibrancy to do it for me this version however is is extremely cool and absolutely dig now it's got this massive big hat on it a fist in the middle it looks really strong really powerful really imposing and it's definitely got a very strong silhouette which absolutely like of course it's holy so it's going to come with a holy book the holy book is looking pretty great now as far as I'm concerned I like the idea of maybe this being slung on your belt if you've got your stuff sheets some pretty nice read colors as well we don't know if they're going to be other holy books for the other variants of the Silver Hand but hey we'll find out eventually next up prot I think prot paladin's have actually got some of the strongest choice of any spec out there this first version of the truth guard shield it's looking immense not only is it massive but I think it's got some really beautiful animated effects to sort of bring it to life a little bit especially that golden sort of holy looking variant again this one is rather similar to the last one and its overall style it just has more animations more color and overall just a little bit more going on once again I think it's absolutely wonderful looking and you can definitely see a lot of the Titanic influence in these paladin weapons or shields of course shields aren't exactly weapons so yeah once again extremely strong I love the hell is this like rotating pulsing thing in the middle this perhaps looks a little bit more like a traditional shield which is great because well not everybody likes their sort of super glowy swag thing it does have a rotating thing in the middle which looks quite good this doesn't do as much for me as the other ones but it's still an extremely cool-looking shield now this person of truth guard is more crystalline so there are definitely going to be some mugs which will look good with that crystalline theme some of the the warlord stuff especially when you've got the purple crystal one that'll go with you kind of drain I narrow ish sets and perhaps even the red one might go with the odd virus set of course every sort well every board has to come with a sword and here's the sword that we're going to get I think it's a beautiful weapon it's not completely crazy and insane but that's because it's not a Joel wielded weapon it's not a two-hander it's just the one hunter especially that golden holy version I think the paladin's just overall are doing so so damn well it's also nicely we've got so many different color variations of this weapon so no matter what your transmog is you're probably going to be able to find a variant of this that will suit your needs that red ones actually particularly interesting yeah I like how they're not only are they changing the color of the effects but they're changing the color palette of pretty much every different bit of the weapons so this is definitely going to go with a lot of stuff well they've essentially done here has just made loads and loads of different swords the same silhouette and yeah same overall silhouette but they're definitely doing a lot with the coloring overall yep I'm just I think paladin's have got some of the best stuff out there next up we've got the Warriors and this is strong cars something something sort of the something I forget the name exactly so this particular variant here is not doing much for me at all it looks very dull very bland and very washed out this one however is a little bit more interesting there is actually some color and I think overall going through these arms warrior weapons there isn't enough color for me and I mean this right now isn't doing much now this I think does look a lot better but if you look at it it looks more like a death knight runeblade then an arms warrior weapon I suppose it's as if Blizzard are having a bit of trouble trying to find out what a warrior weapon looks like other than a big sword I mean this again this just looks quite generic to me and I suppose in comparison to quite a few of the other artifacts it's just not really doing a great deal which is really sad now this next one is actually a little bit more interesting why well again there's a bit more coal and I'm actually getting some sort of lei Shan vibes off of the mainly the blue color variant I think it's the best one of the bunch overall now for the fury warriors it's important to quickly note for you guys that these are going to be scaled up to be two handers apparently that's just a problem that they know is an issue and they want to fix so that first variant I think's looking pretty good actually bearing in mind these will be scaled up of course if you look at this I think it's very rich and that's what I really like about you've got kind of like a nice gold there moving on to this green variant again it feels rich I'm more a fan of the gold variant though than any of the others I think it was particularly impressive looking now this again looks like something that well the blue one looked like something a frost DK would use as for the rest of them though they just again don't look particularly impressive I think in terms of them being scaled up they'll also need to be lengthened now this is totally doing something for me it's kind of hard to see the particle effect here but this will be it kind of a big glowing sword going to look great in some transmog and just imagine holding two of these in red like seeping blood everywhere that could be super badass this next one is pretty damn great you almost have a gold version looks a bit paladin ish the green one and the purple one again looking quite good it's not blowing my mind though like it's a really saw the weapon but I think I want more from the fury stack now for this prace l-- again not doing that much for me and i'm just I feel bad for the Warriors in a way I think a lot of these shields are just pretty bland pretty boring these look like leveling shields in my eyes and that really is disappointing to me now I do know that there are some pretty cool ones here but a lot of them aren't that great this shield is particularly cool and the reason why is because one of its color variants actually looks like it would match with the old might set I believe its might anyway yes this one I think that's extremely cool unlovely throwback and it's a pretty cool shield itself as for this one I like skulls are like bones but again it just doesn't feel like anything unique and special it doesn't feel like it's got much of its own identity as a legendary weapon it's pitch and Eric now this weapon or this same shield here has got a little bit more color to it that's something that I do like it almost looks a bit more elements a little bit more Deathwing ish like it could have been coming from that particular tear especially with the purple version and the orange one this next one again pretty boring and we're just moving on to the very few amount of data mined 100 swords that we've got which go with prot these all look extremely boring and I would transmog away from every single one of them next up we've got the hunter my main class I'm going to be starting off with Titan strike four beast mastery this first version of Titan strike is pretty nice but it's maybe not doing a lot for me why well it just doesn't really strikes or stand out that much and it doesn't feel kind of naturalistic enough for beast mastery this next gun I think is extremely badass I don't think it's a beast mastery hunter weapon though this looks like a marksman weapon in all honesty it's a fecund sniper rifle honestly for me in p.m. I want more of a kind of rustic looking blonde reverse than something like this but absolutely I think it is a very well design and very impressive looking model that I do like it's essentially the first version but with a scope and a few things that are on to it this next one I think is really cool at first of all it's one-handed so I'm interested to see what the animations are going to be like for that but it almost reminds me of those snub-nosed revolvers that have a bayonet on them that you kind of see from like the Old West whether they were actually a thing that much I don't know but this is very chunky very cool-looking it's got some cool moving parts I think is a really nice artifact weapon now this next one is pretty damn chunky and that's really what I would have been wanting from the from the beast mastery stuff it is made of metal oh I would prefer something with a bit more of a wood feel to it that that's definitely true but I think it's a pretty nice weapon looks powerful it looks like a it looks like a cannon look at the damn thing insane now this thing what is this is this like a dragon slash crossbow that fires bullets I don't even know but bloody hell it's cool I want one I just think this is a really unique crazy-ass looking weapon and I'm absolutely down with those are throwing in something that's just a bit more unique different on experimental let's move on to marksmanship so with marksmanship we were going to be using bows and these I believe the Windrunner family bows now we're starting off here with some basic enough looking bows but I think they're very very well designed they're pretty they're very nice we don't have the best camera angles here unfortunately not everything is a 3d model but I'm liking these decently enough even though they are kind of understated that said for a bow I do like a bow to really look like it is a bow this next version okay doesn't look like a bow but it's very sleek very slender very dangerous looking especially that absolutely gorgeous blood elf version I suppose the same for the purple version as well now this is really impressive it looks like a bird which is a nice that will and throw back to the hunters although of course an M will not be using a pets I think this again is just absolutely beautiful artistically strong colors and a very very nice motion to it and again you see that same motion be applied to this crossbow where at the head of the bow and is like a hawk or something you've got a really cool blood elf version as well what I like is that all the motion of their lines is going forward and you know it makes sense because it's a projectile weapon so we've got the Eagle spear here now this is going to be pretty much survival and one of the big things about survival is there a melee class now this first variant of it I think is pretty brilliant looking this next one I'm a little bit less keen on for some reason I just don't think the extra stuff looks as good and the other one looked a little bit more simplistic and kind of wood earthy almost be the word not sure but I still think both variants are very very cool as far as the pole arms go this next one though I absolutely love if you look at the head of the pole arm it's a wolf's hat that's extremely cool I would love to see if this will maybe animate at the old time matter of the wolf would breed something out but I think it's an extremely cool looking weapon as for this next one well it's a big kind of it's a big blast of color isn't and that's definitely nice I'm not completely sold on the design overall though it looks a little bit just random not really like it's got the best direction I mean the color is nice but it's not doing much for me this next one I think is pretty nice but really it doesn't hold a patch on the first view and one of the first fuse probably what I personally be going for some of its color variants are quite nice and I do like how it's got that kind of rustic feel to it which is definitely quite nice you know it's bit beaten a little age that's good so overall for the hunters I think we're looking pretty damn strong even though I'm not a hundred percent happy with beasts mastery time to cover the shamans and we're going to be starting off with the doomhammer of course this first version is the basic to hammer obviously they're not going to be changing up to make it look different yeah it looks like a standard kind of hammer thing but it's an iconic weapon I think it looks very cool personally and as much as it's questionable whether we should be having such an artifact to be a thing that's in the hand of players it's nice that it's nice to see at least now this next one is a bit more of a spectacle of course challenger all about the elements this one is arcing lightning all over the place looking very cool the golden one almost looks holy which is pretty damn nice and the green one doesn't really look like nature energy looks like something kind of fell I think this lightning version is extremely cool a big fan of it now this next one just doesn't really look like the Doomhammer to me and I suppose as we move through the skins we're going to see stuff like that happen it's it's nice it's pretty accomplished it just doesn't really fulfill the enhancement are they yeah it doesn't feel the fill the enhancement shaman kind of fantasy in that it doesn't feel like this is what's used by somebody who's you know throwing fireballs mixing that in with their melee strikes this next version whoever absolutely fits the spec perfectly now this is just the main hand version in your offhand it will spawn a kind of elemental like duplicate of the hammer which will basically be like a pure fire version and they do look very cool this is just like the main hand weapon model this overall this flaming version I think is looking absolutely brilliant but speaking of absolutely brilliant hats off to this first of all really cool animations and stuff going on and this almost looks like it's something that would be used by a priest or holy paladin especially this golden white version so as much as it might not feel 100% shaman II I think it is one of the coolest one-handed maces in the game based of what we can see so far so next we move on to the scepter of a shara which is the restoration shaman choice this first version of it is simple enough looking it's not particularly blowing me away I like how it's kind of in some ways a little bit sleek whenever but not that special this one though is pretty cool we've actually seen a gif of it from Blizzard and it's all animated with the water effects and I do hope those water effects kind of surge when you do a spell that I think would look brilliant this next version is also really quite nice-looking again it's a one-handed mace so it's not going to look insane or you know be crazy big but I think it's a simple design that's well done with the Knights come like light orb in the middle this next version of it is a little bit more rustic looking it's got horns woods tusks things like that and I think it would appeal a lot more to a horde player whereas the other one definitely is a bit more kind of elvish looking this excellent a bit odd it partially initially struck me as like a paladin hammer which is kind of weird this doesn't feel that shiny at all so I'm not really sure what's going on now this also is a combination of a one-handed mace and a shield and you can see we've got some animated shields here I do hope again that those shields will flare up when you cast a spell that would look really nice as for the other shield offerings though I'm just not particularly convinced by them a lot of them do look just rather mediocre and I think there are probably better options when it comes to being able to transmog out of some of this stuff finally for the elemental shaman we've got the fists of rattan this is a pretty damn cool looking fist weapon it's going to be all kind of animated with the Lightning effect that you've got going on there one odd thing though is this is a spec that's hurling lava bolts and things does it make a lot of sense to be using a fist weapon like this that kind of caught me by surprise it's a fist weapon and shield combination she's definitely little bit more different out there and a lot of those fist weapons don't look particularly shamaness they're clever that you've got this one here which is very chunky it's got like you know with the fire orb in the middle of it that looks very shamanistic I think that absolutely works well this next one as an example it just doesn't look like something that would be used by an elemental shaman that's up I think it's very nice I think these are all very very nice fist weapons they just don't particularly fit the class in a in a crazy way and I mean from a lore perspective this could be me missing some don't even know how much rad Dan has got to do with elemental shamans and now on on with the shield's again what we're going to see with these is the shield's are animated that could look really really cool if they do it right especially if the animations tie in with your spell casting next we've got the demon hunter stuff I've got to imagine this is a class of weapons that people are very interested in seeing so this first one is really mundane it looks like a leveling weapon I've got to assume this is the first variation of it and that you'll be getting some more cool stuff now this one is upping the ante a little bit it's got one edge which is tipped with some like you know green stuff overall yeah looking really really really good once although as some of these look less interesting the sight or the warg lips that I've been using in the demon hunters starter zone I either starting weapons it's a bit strange this one is doing a lot more for me though why well it's got more colour it's also got a and the handguard which gives it a little bit more bulk to it some really nice looking particle effects that I think will look really great in motion as in they'll kind of look like a motion trail which could be nice this next version is not really a war glaive it's some teeth on a stick with a skull on it I'm totally down with the skull actually looks like the skull is an armor that's very badass but the rest of it isn't really doing much for me it just doesn't feel demon hunter II I suppose yeah not the biggest fan this almost looks like a shield in many ways and I've got to wonder whether this will be what is worn by like one hand of the tanking and the tanky demon hunter that said though it's nice it's bulky lots of color to it very strong overall I think it's a good addition now this one is looking a bit more like a traditional war glaive in that it's M well just a flat-out simple glaive definite looks quite nice you've got a few colors there one of them's got that military kind of look to it some other ones again though it's not particularly crazy it almost looks like a starting weapon this next version does not look like a starting weapon I've got to assume this is an upgraded version you may be unlocked and tan this looked a lot stronger more color some really nice lines and I especially like how you've got demons horns built into the weapon itself this one again it almost looks like something a blood death knight would be using if a blood death knight was a demon hunter and that it's got those kind of like fat looking lines the green variation of it's particularly cool and I've got to imagine that this will look better when it's fully out and animated of course this is alpha / beta so everything is subject to change and speaking things that will look better animated we've got this one very cool though and the actual glaives themselves are just a particle effect so this is I'd say going to look absolutely brilliant in motion and that green variation is especially brilliant and next we've got this this looks very I almost want to say it looks very 2007 I mean that in a good way and I don't know if you've looked at some of those older weapons maybe you'll get what I mean I think this is one of the strongest options especially the green and purple variations overall I think the demon hunters do have a very strong sweet though let's move on to the rogue starting off with assassination and we've got a tiger that looks pretty okay I mean it's a tiger it's said it does stabbing but in all honesty that it's just not particularly impressing me that much this next variant of it is a little bit better and then it's gotten rid of a glow it's got something going on but overall I'm just not I don't know that this tiger isn't particularly doing much for me the only one that I will say work pretty well there was the red one now moving on to this next version of the dagger a part of it almost looks a spring ash with that little lamb sort of caught out that it's got the one thing that is strange is that none of these are good at stabbing okay maybe this next one here is good at stacking but the other ones are all very strange like chopping daggers which is a little bit odd I think that red one does look particularly brutal though overall though I'm just not feeling it for assassination Ike here this one's just a bunch of bones I can see some people thinking that maybe looks cool I can see that working with a few very specific marks but overall none of these assassination options are really particularly special for me let's move on to outlaw which is the new combat spec and I've got to say these outlaw weapons are looking brilliant the whole thing is designed around being a kind of pirate slash bandit and I think they've absolutely managed to deliver that fantasy with these weapons one or two of them like I especially like how they're almost sort of gilded in a way it almost has this kind of like pirate King look which I really think is particularly pleasing through the eye overall some really really nice work here also this saber is actually quite unique like if you compare this to the sabers or I think it's a saber or whatever if you compare it to the current version of that weapon that we've got in the game what a massive improvement I think outlaw have actually got brilliant subtlety however are not so lucky this is basically just a big tooth slash bone or something or a tusk with a bittleman just that onto a bit of metal that is not doing anything for me in the slightest it just looks really boring this next one is the is basically the same thing but with a bunch of corruption on it such that the corruption makes it very bad at being a knife it doesn't look like anything it looks rubbish as far as I'm concerned this next one is a little bit better it's got a bit of a wispy sort of smoke effect on it but it's still the same base weapon this just doesn't feel inspired at all to me it just it's very dull very boring this one again it's the same it's a task or whatever but this time they've sellotaped a blade onto it not looking that good for Blizzard ie I'm honestly surprised that this is what they've managed to come up with this one again it's just something stuffed onto a bone or a tusk it looks a bit better because it's a bit more vibrant but overall I think subtlety actually overall as a spec might be the worst off of the whole lot next let's move on to pharaoh with the fangs of ash main now the fangs of ash main are pretty cool-looking definitely and you can't can't see how it's kind of like a fang with the dagger around I think that looks really cool what is more cool about and about this though is that you're going to get a new Farrell form and I will cover that Farrell form in this video because it is amazing looking now the same goes for Guardian but I think their actual weapon does look quite a bit better and just very well colored very well defined absolutely brilliant looking apparently they're going to try to find a way for your forms to actually be wielding your weapon but we do have we hadn't actually seen that yet and we have no idea whether that will actually come to pass so for restoration we've got a more traditional looking staff and while I think this base version of it does look quite nice for whatever reason it's just not particularly impressing me to a great degree like some of those color variations are definitely really pretty I suppose I'm just not the biggest fan of some of the druid stuff that said my own druid is using the level 20 crest request rewards it's got animations I think it's really nice so this next versions got a little bit more going on and in terms of animations I've got to wonder whether we'll be seeing those sprouts and things on the top of it change a little bit right now we have a little bit of motion a bit of glow but perhaps there could be more and the same can be applied to this next version which at first glance almost looks a little bit more like a palace and weapon but if you look a little bit closer you can see that it's actually feathers that are pulsing out I think it's pretty nice looking overall I like up is a little bit more light going on this one though is I think really strong and a part of that for me is that it just has more lighting to it I think that makes it look just a bit more visually rich a very strong glow going throughout and of course that strong glow means it it's color variations all feel quite unique I think that's a really solid option now this one is rather say me ish I mean yeah it's a little bit bigger a bit more impressive but not really doing it for me what is kind of cool is it almost looks like it's got some of the balance druid and like the moon conform armor on other parts that is a nice little touch but again this isn't particularly exciting me that much however when we move on to this next weapon the sight of alone I'm far more impressed I really like sights as already being established in this video I think this is a particularly strong sight with some excellent and different versions for the colors it's going to look great in bounds Drew's I think and of course the scythe almost looks like the Crescent part of the moon this next version the scythe balloon is pretty similar it's got a little bit of a different thing at the back I think overall like yeah it's pretty good and maybe I just kind of look for something that's going a little bit more crazy than the original version of the scythe so this version has actually done that and it's basically put a crescent moon on a staff I think that looks really really cool absolutely fits the law and the fantasy of the balance spec so absolutely an extremely strong option with some beautiful color variations and of course we have this one now this is cool and that the scythe itself is a bit more ethereal a bit more dusty looking if you look closely at it it doesn't actually look like it's got a solid core it's more just a big particle effect that is particularly nice and I've got to imagine in motion when you're running around with this thing glowing your character that it's going to look extremely impressive and finally we've got this version of the size which I don't know it's it's a little bit more kind of savage looking that it's got loads of like bindings on it and that is kind of cool though it doesn't look like the size of a loan at this point it's completely disappeared from its fantasy which is a little bit of a pity it almost just looks a little bit too dark for what it bounced through it in my head is let's hop over to the monk starting off with Miss Weaver now this very first mystery for one I think it's very nice a little bit washed out in the colours with that first variant but there are some nice rich ones like the kind of gold and jade one which I think are really appealing I like how it's got the bell there and it's got that kind of like beautiful long em rope scroll thing you coming down from it I think it's really nice and again this is a more I just say more like sort of built up version of that same staff and I especially do like the golden Jade one Blizzard are very good at doing that pandaren aesthetic and especially kind of the Jade forest look I think it does look very good and it stands out with some weapons like this overall yeah I think it's really really pretty nice looking this next one is OK in this color version not great but I do like how they've got a little pot of incense there and how that pot of incense seems to have active physics honest of course the Jade and gold one is the one that looks the best because I think it's really walks it's the color palette that suits that art style the best overall but still a very very cool variation this next one is more shy themed honestly I'm just not that excited about stuff that's themed in the shine anymore we've had mists of pandaria dealing with shaft stuff I've seen enough of it I mean it's great to have it as an option but personally it just isn't really that exciting next we've got this one based off GG and I think it's absolutely fantastic looking and I really like how they've got the little wind chimes coming off the EM that the cranes mouth yeah this might be one of the most kind of like just sleek slender beautiful nice-looking and staffs that they've got especially that kind of more rich rad version I think it's really really nice-looking next we've got wind Walker now wind Walker are going to be using fists weapons this very first fist weapon I think is looking really really great lots of very different color variations and I especially do like that gold and white and with a little dash of black thrown in there and as well as that yet the sort of next variation of that color palettes you've also got this version with a bit of a different looking blade I think these are all looking great and yeah it's just nice for a mist mover to be using a weapon like this I think in action you know that animated on their face while they do their attacks will look really good this next one it actually caught me off as being like a miniature Frostmourne for a second but it's more of a crystalline and vibrant look very strong colors like it's very very noticeable which is definitely good I like that in my gear and I know some people might think it's clown gear but I think it's a nice little option this next one is more of a claw and what I like here is that you've got something that's a claw shape you've got a big crystalline thing then you've got more of a knuckleduster look there's quite a bit of variation with these hand weapons that's definitely very good to see now this one is just a bit mantle it's basically a big like a big stone fist this would go really well I imagine anyway with some of that warlords of draenor monk here the one with the big stone shoulders overall very cool stuff for a from Windwalker and finally we've got brewmaster now this brewmaster one is pretty much just the tang card kind of latched on to a stick not very I almost want to say traditional looking you know style having a bamboo rod I think it's very nice is it the most fun buoyant like crazy thing ever no but it definitely works this upgraded version is similar to the last one but it's got a bigger keg that's pretty much only a good thing a gig or a bigger keg definitely good and I think it does look nice it's chunky it sort of fits with brewmaster I feel it definitely looks like something you could defend yourself with this next one is really cool I mean most of its variants actually they're all quite quite nice for different reasons and you've got a metal kind of part instead of the keg that's really cool-looking and a dragon's head for the end of the staff absolutely brilliant stuff the same goes for this next one which has got a very different looking keg as well under body there's a lot more I think heavy and metallic looking so overall we see pretty good variations so far and they've managed to do different things with the same base style as for this one I don't even know what's supposed to be in that is this sponsored by Monster Energy or something I mean half of Legion already is I suppose so this is immediately interesting it's a bit vibrant a little bit odd-looking doesn't really look about monkish but i suppose it's good to have variation next up warlocks and I've got to say already from looking at these warlocks are in for such a treat this first variation is a very solid looking scythe I already like sights I think the balance drew a part of the video already established that yeah this looks brilliant and now when we move into this variation it's got a little bit more in terms of spell effects it's not as strong as one of the versions that I'm just waiting for that to appear in the video so I kind of geek out over it but overall this is a very very nice looking weapon with some strong colors I like the skull on it and yeah it's pretty damn good this version is pretty damn similar to the last one but if you look closely out at what you can see is the body of the scythe is and what more of a traditional sight is quite smooth looking and I think this does look great it's got a bit more in terms of like it's got a very strong effect on it very good colours and this one however is a little bit different a bit more straight a bit more I think savage and painful looking which I definitely like because we are talking about an affliction warlock it's pulsating with like plague and corruption and stuff Ulf it's affliction really damn well this next version is see very big as far as sites go which I don't know for some reason almost caught me off by surprise I think it's that the the top of it almost looks like it could be a hammer without the scythe bit still though I think it's pretty big pretty impressive looking overall I'm a pretty big fan necks are moving on to destruction destructions got a staff called the scepter of Sargeras I believe and this first variation of it is just coming out I'm you know face rolling really cool looking that green one which is now past especially nice I just love the entire head of this weapon it's very very cool looking with great animations this is a version that's pretty damn similar to it but if you just look at that spell effect it sprouts wings and that looks especially cool in this green variation I think this might be one of the coolest weapons that they've actually brought out over all the purple one looks very traditional warlock I'd like you know what the demonology warlocks are just gonna look at that and be a little bit sad because I've lost their matter but overall extremely cool looking if you look at that ball in the middle I love how that's pulsating and moving around overall just what a amazing bit of weapon design I'm extremely happy with this this one is perhaps not going to be it immediately is crazy because it doesn't sprout back and wings but I still think it's beautiful looking so first of all you see a skull in the middle just above the hand and that moves on to this like three pointed thing with like a energy ball in the middle and then some really cool runic text this is wonderful looking again like all the other warlike weapons extremely impressive we're moving on to this version which again is a bit more corrupted looking it's got kind of like spiders legs going on with it so if you were a fan of some of that some of that 5.4 estatic with the the marsh ah then maybe you'll like this overall though it is quite strong just not doing as much for me as the other ones but what I do like is that its energy ball is quite a bit bigger than the other ones it definitely stands out a lot this one is extremely cool it's got a rotating thingy in it and which I mean come on rotating things I'm sold looking at the top very strong kind of color with its ball it's got some nice runes on it very cool bottom as well overall just other extremely impressed looking weapon as far as these animation warlock weapons go I think they're just looking absolutely insanely good warlocks have came off extremely well next it's time to cover demonology and I've got to say demonology warlocks might be the best off in terms of artifacts weapons because boy if they got something unique this doesn't really fit any weapon slot that we have it is like a floating demon skull that floats in and around your character I think it looks absolutely wonderful and especially this first variants nice with this big metallic jaw this next one a jolly skull floating in the air very strong colors very vibrant looks very evil and Blizzard detailing work on the skulls is also brilliant they they definitely do look very striking they really stand out that's absolutely a good thing I'm actually just really impressed and this one a bit of a disconnected jaw kind of a more fell look in its interior it just surprises me and I think it's definitely very you know heartening to see that they've went and they've kind of I suppose innovated with the weapon they've done something which isn't one of the traditional weapon types something that's just floating around beside your character because of you think about how a demonology warlock is going to be in legion they're less about firing things off their enemies they're far more about summoning demons and I think this skull definitely works this one is this a troll skull or an orc skull one of the two but again it's looking quite good and I like the way they're using that glowing effect and the sort of stroke that you see in the outlines of the model this next one is pretty cool that it looks like the top of the skull is all fractured hopefully that's going to have some sort of animation effects overall though demonology just wow they have absolutely lucked out and got themselves a brilliant set of gear next we're going to run through the pre starting off with holy and first of all you can see a pretty strong narrow influence with this stuff and if you look at the staff itself it is big like this stuff isn't backing around it's a really really big staff it's also got a pretty good amount of motion and some pretty strong colors in the bottom on the top though perhaps the actual staff bit is a little bit weaker this next one is pretty similar to the last staff but you can see some more moving elements to it more animation a bit more flare and especially in that narrow sort of purple look the crystalline thing very much associated with the Draenei looking absolutely stunning and yeah the priests are so far for holy anyway are really coming off very well indeed now this next one is perhaps a little bit more standard and priestly you could say in that it's got you know a bit of a white light not really narrow based more kind of I suppose a Stormwind human look to it in many ways yeah it's it's pretty cool-looking for me personally not as good as the narrow stuff but if you actually look at that gold white and black one I think that really is a stand out from the crowd this one isn't doing it as much for me though I think it's still an extremely strong weapon it's it's more of that the other competition is just so very strong especially we look at the head of this you've got the nice vibrant crystal that's surrounded by some really really nice-looking spell effects it's just amazing how they've got so many great things for Holi this one though isn't really doing it for me the reason why is because well it's just it's kind of it looks dark you know shadowy not really something that would be used by a holy priest it just doesn't seem to fit the style still as a speck whole er really brilliantly done by so far so for Discipline we start off with this which is again more of a traditional kind of Stormwind human styled staff my one criticism of it so far though is that it's color palette is rather washed out yes you've got a gold and a white and a blah in there but they're very muted and if you look at this wax it's a little bit more cool because it's quite literally got stained-glass built into its body not sure if that's the most sound design for a weapon but at least it looks cool and I suppose when it comes to games the rule of cool is pretty powerful this next one is I think pretty mediocre for its body but what is interesting that it's got these three burning candles and it's a nice tie with most of these staffs they've tried to work in some details which I think you'll really fit and both fit holy and in this case just very well and speaking of things that fit discs very well this has got a holy book on the front of the staff really wonderful looking and it's nice you've got a few little physics elements going on there as well I think this is going to go great with some mugs too and overall with and with the discipline guys and again you see in this you know it's got a really impressive head to the staff but the colors are just a little bit washed out and I suppose some of that does work with the maybe the appeal and the look of discipline if it wants to have a look but I still think some of the bodies are a bit bland finally for the priests we move on to shadow now shadow is a bit different instead of a staff it's got a Malley weapon of course they're not going to be actually doing melee they're still casters but this is mainly to reflect their old gods revamp in terms of their lore especially if you look at this version of it very much old God inspired do I like it mostly what I think is good is that it looks very sharp and very sly see very vicious very painful that definitely works if you look at the handle of this it's got three nails driven through it I think that's a very powerful look this next one you can see the at least the sort of telltale signs of some animated effects and the actual blade there and again if you look at all these there are slicing blades they've got very long sort of curved and you know curved elements to them that's great again it just feels clinical and feels very cultish you know like slicing off meat or something I think the Shadow Priests stuffs definitely looking pretty good but what will be the true test is what they look like once the Shadow Priests is actually in void form and casting abilities next up we have the majors starting off with Arcana I've got to say arcane are brilliant in terms of their weapons this first one looking really cool you've got three big M no crystalline things and the spinning circle the middle and a strong sort of color at the very bottom or the first of the staff looks excellent though some of these actually look a little bit more priestly you're kind of verging into that priests color scheme with the whites and the stuff like that now if you thought the last staff was sort of crazy-looking this one is insane and you're gonna hold like you're gonna have really sore wrists if you hold this be like the momentum buds must be going on with all the things gyrating about the place I suppose if you're a mage that's not really your biggest concern but again though this looks brilliant I really like this set or be a piece of gear anyway this next one a little bit less hard on it it kind of looks a bit less honest because that Thunder it's pretty decent though it is a good staff it's just that it doesn't look super impressive in comparison to the other ones because they are so very good does that salute testament to how good those pieces of gear actually are this one doesn't really work for me with arcane though it looks a bit more kind of corrupted it doesn't really look like arcane magic which surely is just about actual just raw power raw energy not really sort of super corrupting look and I mean gathers magic corruption as a plot of Laura Brett just doesn't look like this stuff is really channeling maths quite well I don't I don't know 100% keen on it this one though it's it's funny it's looking white priestly if you look at the color scheme it's got a kind of gold or around it that's absolutely something that's usually the domain of priests especially if you look at this golden variation that said I don't think it looks like arcane I think it does look like a very very nice staff next we move on to frost who are going to be using a band chill I think this is a really really nice looking stuff again Blizzard are very good at making staffs overall they've I guess got a lot of room to do really interesting creative things with them certainly and they should go to very nice head to it and if you look at this which appears to be the upgraded version of this weapon it's looking quite brilliant and a lot of half to it though a lot of haves a lot of weight but it's chunky it fits the Warcraft universe and once again a purple version which really looks like it should be wilted by Valinor somebody I'm not exactly a mage this next version is doing a little bit less for me in in some ways but there are some nice details if you look at it you can see there's actually a dagger in the bottom of it that you could sort of I don't know drawn in a sketchy situation and it still does have a pretty strong head to it as well with that nice big crystal this one however is kind of crazy looking it's particle effect all over the place which I love in weapons I know that I like the things they're a bit more vibrant and crazy and kind of out there but like this isn't going to not catch your attention I mean look at this it's blue yet it's on fire very nice this is a weird one it looks like it's got loads of flowers inside it as if Blizzard tried to make a water staff but they just couldn't really pull off the water rendering with their engine I don't really think it I think it looks a bit ridiculous honestly I get what they're going forward but I think it looks silly and finally we have fellow Malorne which is the fire mage weapon now this has got a kind of lot of sort of dynasty to it and it's the you know sunstrider family plate so when you look at it it's got that kind of sleekness and that elegance and that beauty to it that really does complement them as a as a race I think it's a really really nice looking weapon a pity you're going to be hitting things with but hey still a very very nice one especially those really rich reds and oranges that are present and some of them this next one is a bit more well guess off the chains it's as if it's kind of exploded it's not doing as much really for me as far as fire goes I was a bit more of a fan of the past ones I mean these are interesting but not really the biggest fan and this next variant looks like more of a chopping weapon not really the kind of thing that will be used by a mage maybe something that you would have seen you know with a fury warrior back in the times before Titans grip was actually a thing this final one again doesn't really look like a mages blade it looks like they just stole a lot of Moga shine vaults a little bit disconcerting some of the last few options but most of the versions of fellow Malorne are looking brilliant so there you have it a look at just about every artifact weapon more stuff will probably be data mined as time goes on we'll get some more clean previews of things Oh we're all I think most classes fare pretty well there are a few outliers though I think Warriors are pretty weak I think rogues are pretty weak as well hopefully Blizzard are going to address that and maybe you will see more in the way of skin variations so let me know what you think about your class down in the comments of the video thank you very much for watching guys and I will see you next time
