Legion is great in many areas, but it would go onto influence the game in the most cursed way possible for the next two expansions.
Suramar was fun, legendaries were fun... once you had them all (and you didn't get dicked by sephuz' secret) and having something to do every day after the walking disaster that is WOD's world was refreshing. The beginning of the expansion was the worst of it, with the artifact power grind to get the 5% damage bonus being so profound and the legendary gap being so huge made the roulette of gear feel terrible.
But, it introduced M+, something that would go to be a huge pillar of the game going forward, the raids were all great (emerald nightmare is.... less great) and the classes were as much fun as they've ever been. A solid expansion that was a needed shot in the arm.
