Stepping into Legion Remix feels like reliving a favorite story—but faster, fresher, and geared for today’s players. In this guide, you’ll find how to start, progress, and master this limited-time mode in World of Warcraft: The War Within. Whether you’re a returning hero or new to Legion, the tips here will help you move smoothly from level 10 to 80 and beyond.
Legion Remix is a special, accelerated event that lets players experience much of the Legion expansion under new rules. You create a Timerunner character (starting at level 10), choose from the classic Legion classes, and power through dungeons, raids, order hall stories, and zone quests.
Rewards in Remix—like mounts, skins, and cosmetics—are unique and exclusive. The event usually runs for a fixed period (for example, October 7 to January 19 in one run) so timing matters.
Getting Started: Creating Your Timerunner
- Select “Legion Remix” mode in the character-creation screen once the event is live.
- Pick a class from among the 12 original Legion classes (Evoker and newer classes are not included).
- The intro places you in Dalaran (Krasus’ Landing), where a short questline explains the Remix rules, introduces your artifact weapon, and unlocks the central hub—the Infinite Bazaar.
- During the intro, you also learn about Skyriding, gear scrapping, and how to collect the new currencies of Remix: Bronze and Infinite Power.
Core Systems You Must Understand
Bronze & Infinite Power
- Bronze acts as the event’s cosmetic currency, rewarded by scrapping gear, killing mobs, or completing quests.
- Infinite Power is more vital—it fuels your artifact upgrades, giving you permanent stat boosts and trait points.
Artifact Weapon & Traits
Legion Remix revamps how artifacts work. Instead of fixed paths, you choose traits from a shared tree (e.g. Nature, Fel, Arcane, Storm, Holy). You can respec freely and use jewelry items to access extra ranks or traits outside your primary path.
Gear, Caches & Scrapping
- Gear drops are frequent—from quests, dungeons, raids, world content, and infinite caches.
- Unwanted gear can be scrapped (via a scrapper or infinite forge) to yield Bronze or Infinite Power.
- Keep gear current; even a modest upgrade can ease your progress significantly.
Infinite Bazaar & Research
- The Infinite Bazaar, located in Dalaran, is your main hub. You can buy cosmetics, pick world difficulty, and take on Infinite Research quests.
- Infinite Research tasks give you boosts, account-wide XP bonuses, and resources. They stack over time, so don’t skip them.
Heroic World Tier & Timewarped Obelisks
- Activating Heroic World Tier makes open-world content harder but grants much greater rewards and experience. Use it when your gear and power make it manageable.
- Timewarped Obelisks scattered across zones offer temporary buffs to help during exploration and combat.
Timeworn Keystone Dungeons & Trials
Dungeons in Remix return in a Timeworn Keystone form, similar to Mythic+ mechanics. Remix adds a few new affixes (Eternus’s Trials) to spice things up. Running dungeons helps both leveling and gearing.
Best Strategies to Level Fast
To climb from level 10 to 80 efficiently, combine multiple systems. Here’s how:
1. Story Quests + Zone Progression
Follow the main questlines in each zone of the Broken Isles. These deliver steady XP, unlock content, and often overlap with other goals (dungeon quests, research quests, etc.).
2. Run Dungeons Smartly
Once you have some gear, dungeon runs become powerful XP engines. Prioritize dungeon quests that align with your current zone. Always aim to stack dungeon runs with research quests or story tasks.
3. Push Infinite Research Every Day
Even short research quests help—over days they build up. Pick ones that you’ll naturally finish while questing or doing dungeons, so you get added benefit without detours.
4. Use Heroic World Tier Strategically
Don’t flip it on too early. Later, when your stats allow, turning on Heroic grants bonus experience, higher drops, and extra Infinite Power. Be cautious though—world mobs become much more dangerous.
5. Don’t Hoard Gear
Scrap any gear that is behind your item level curve. That yields Bronze and Infinite Power, which you’ll always need. Never let your inventory slow you down.
Picking Classes Wisely
Some classes perform especially well in Remix because of damage, mobility, or versatility. Here are top picks:
- Havoc Demon Hunter: High mobility, strong AoE damage, and flexibility.
- Balance Druid: Great for both single and area damage; travel form helps move fast.
- Beast Mastery Hunter: Your pet tanks, letting you zip through fights safely.
- Frost Mage: Excellent crowd control and clear speed in packs.
- Demonology Warlock: Summons minions to soak damage while you do ranged attacks.
Each of these balances safety and speed. Other specs are fine, too—pick what you enjoy.
