    Needs less zone hate, no way to get up safely or needs a smaller aggro range

     -System: Addition of elementals to provide "side" challenges was a nice touch. It allowed me to have a source to use Drain II to heal back up without drawing attention from the main HNM's. Their HP was low enough that they don't pose much of a problem to any single Drk or Dd-Mage!
      

     -Battle: I'm sure the others have already posted that the alliance hate of most of the HNM's is a little overboard, seeing as a premature wipe could very well mean the end of the event! However I was personally able to unweaken twice likely due to everyone else dying. Damage to the NM's seemed fair, but without buffs and the proper chat filters i'm unsure of this!

     -System: Seems like another zerg fest! I think you should take the suggestion from some post in the other thread and incorporate some variety to it... Something like the moving floor in Diabolos fight etc. As it is, just seems like zerg boss one while someone kites the other two mobs or holds them.

    There should also be some place to rest, it seems once you wipe its over.

     -System:
      There did not seem to be adequate time to recover from KO weakness. In order to recover the player seems to have to run around haphazardly and rest, while trying to avoid the giant aggro radius.

     -Battle:
    Challenging but not impossible getting past second wave and then to boss seemed impossible. (This was on our second run. We used the the "split into teams" strategy. )

    Other feedback and opinions
    Need a corridor to safely rest in to recover from weakness.
    Music could be more unique instead of the standard BCNM music. (Ending battle music [Final Fantasy Prelude] was a nice touch though.)

     -System:

    Overall it's seems good but need to work on making the content "Battle-friendly" for DD's due to the mass death and no RR if die twice. Ideally would like an NPC in 3 zones incase of congestion for players so that there's no competition, and that people are able to freely do Legion on a set time.... Ideally i would like the maximum of 18 people due to the lag and the zone's made bigger because 36 people in that small zone is quite crowded
      

     -Battle:

    There are a few changes that I would like to see in Legion

    Auto RR - Similar to WoE due to mass death and it would be impossible for a whm to get a lot of people raised if they get killed twice in a row before managing to get RR up

    Make the entry requirement a little easier (if 18+ then get the tome to be shareable and linked so that one person can use the item and 19+ can all be warped into the battle arena)

    The Zone need to be slightly bigger so we can have just a tad more space to work with.

    Legion would ideally be good with 18 people due to the Lag that we get for having more than 20+ people in the zone

    Other feedback and opinions

    It was actually very hard to try and get the win on THF and I'm worried that Legion would become another "SMN burned" content as it's extremely non-dd friendly

    And also if it this tough fighting T1 then it's going to be extremely un-friendly to people who aren't a relic/mythic/empy holders

    Our second round went more better than the first one, but 30 minutes isn't enough.... 1 hour would be ideal and if the developers are gonna give us an hour, then can do a cool down period for 1 real life day etc

     -System: can be fine if tweaked a bit
      

     -Battle: very hard, had a Corse, Vampyr and Dvergr type mobs first tier, impossible to recover from whipes due to HP aggro range and mobs wandering, also AoE charms make it too difficult to hold mobs while the rest of the party kills another mob that also AoE charms.


    Other feedback and opinions I would just remove the HP aggro altogether from this as it's such a small room, maybe make them do less AoE damage, otherwhise it could be fine

     -System: I have no complaints about the system, seems like a good implementation to have only the alliance leaders in charge of entering the run and everyone else gets transported automatically. Feels like how Einherjar SHOULD have been, so well done here.
      

     -Battle: Hall of Skies, Behemoth, Wyrm, & Turtle. We learned the lesson that the NMs need to be kept further apart, and perhaps the arena feels a little small for this. I suppose it's an intended part of the challenge. The overlap is what killed us, but I feel that's more a learning experience on our part.


    Other feedback and opinions
    The one comment I'd like to raise, is that I'm surprised to see temporary items of any sort in this event. I realize that it's very limited in that only the person who killshots an elemental obtains one temp item, so this is a bit of relief. I would like to express, however, that the Dev. teams take extreme caution with any further implementing of temporary items. Temp items in quantity take away greatly from the importance of skill and managing yourself efficiently. I don't mind them in this form, but I don't want to see the door opened into another full-blown temp item-based event like Voidwatch has become.

     -System: the system seems fine, the undead blood aggro is a bit much, the zone seems a bit small too. If only there were an entry hallway similar to the doomvoid fights where we could pull monsters to.

    An ability to buy temp items prior to entering with legion points would be cool, such as terror, doom screen (maybe add a charm one?)
