FAQ

How often do Legion Assaults spawn?

They rotate every 18 hours in Legion Remix. Expect four assaults per reset week, giving two shots at Defending the Broken Isles credit before maintenance.

Do alts need to finish the full scenario?

Yes—each character must complete the three stages to earn the reputation, Bronze, and achievement credit. You can, however, skip the intro cinematic.

Can I queue the final scenario later?

No. You must complete all stages while the assault is active. If you disconnect, talk to the original quest giver to re-queue before the timer expires.
