Winds of Magic worth buying?

[Mei]

As topic says, this DLC worth getting?

[Wolfman]

No, not at all. Look at the reviews.

[Solus]

If you have a dedicated party it will be a blast. Otherwise you will only relish 1/3 of paid content.

[CopperBack]

~ meh maybe if only to support a game you love, get some extra weapons... maybe more worth it after they revamp weaves.

[Kaelus Von Sestiaf]

Basically you gotta look at the price tag, then look at what comes with Winds of Magic and decide if what you want out of the DLC is worth what you'll be paying.

WoM comes with:
-5 weapons, one for each hero. That's a 2h spear for kruber, a throwing axe for bardin (usable on slayer and ranger veteran), a spear and shield for handmaiden kerillian, a billhook for saltzpyre (special attack button pulls a single target in and always staggers them no matter what if they're not a boss) and a flaming flail for Sienna
-The beastmen faction. A strong, powerful faction that will kick your ass at first. 1 monster, 1 special, 1 elite and like 3 or 4 different types of infantry + a set of archers, as they're a horde-focused faction. Adds a ton of variety and replayability to all the maps once unlocked.
-1 new map focused on the beastmen. Tis really, really tough, but it's a very fun map with a lot of secrets.
-Cataclysm difficulty, for when Legend is boring you. Pretty much universally agreed to be good.
-The Weaves game mode, which is very fun, beautifully designed alternate game mode. This last one is the most controversial feature, since it's pretty much impossible to enjoy it as a solo player, you need to play this with people. And, at least until season 2 of weaves start, finding people through matchmaking is flat out impossible. But, if you have friends that also own winds of magic willing to play weaves, then you'll probably have a blast.

Simply check which of these you're actually interested in, and check if you think the price tag is worth only that.

[Moschusbock]

only if you are bored with legend difficulty

[Nezzus]

Check feedback for WOM and decide ^-))))

[Deja Vu]

Still no, although a lot of the bugs got worked out in the last patch, a lot remains, and there's still the matchmaking problem in Weaves. Wait till the advertised quickplay feature for weaves hits or it'll be a waste.

[Detective Potato]

Yes, i have enjoyed WOM greatly. Many people dislike beastmen. However, i like a challenge. So, they are fun for myself and other friends.

[ᚺᚢᚾᛏᛖᚱ]

no

[tanksin]

not many people play the weave mode which is the biggest part of the expansion so not really

Yes if the content is worth the money to you.
Difficulty is crazy, weapons are few with no skins yet, map is only 1 and weaves are a single player or friends deal because no bots and nobody plays it.

To me having grown bored of legend difficulty, the new difficulty and 1 or 2 of the weapons made it worth it, kind of.

[ZaydinTTV]

Not at full price has been the best answer I've gotten. Tends to be the best advice for all the DLC, really.

I think it's really fun and refreshing IF you can get people to play it with. I really enjoyed it but sadly I've basically played my entire 1200 hours solo so Weaves were very difficult for me to progress in .

Still enjoyed them.

You don't speak for the entire community. Furthermore insulting anyone who doesn't share your opinion makes you look petulant and is not something that would be attracting new players on any platform for any game. Please sit down.
