Garrisons and New Teams

[kalos72]

So I am working on 3 new teams for legion and I was wondering if you think its worthwhile to even spend the effort in garrisons? They are going away entirely correct?

I'll still be using mine post-Legion to purchase trade goods with garrison resources in order to level professions, and there's a good chance I'll keep some buildings such as the barn and the tailoring emporium active on a number of characters, since the 30-slot Hexweave Bag will still be the largest one available for the foreseeable future - the 32-slot bag that was available in the Legion alpha has since disappeared and it's uncertain whether it'll be introduced again in a later content patch.

If you'd like to farm the mounts (or other drops) still from the garrison invasions and/or raid bosses, it might be beneficial to still have a building in every plot, as during an invasion you get points for every building that's still standing. Mind you, I haven't actually tested this without a fully developed garrison, so this is just speculation on my part. Perhaps anyone else can confirm/refute this.

Other than that, I can't think of anything else that would make it worthwhile to still set them up.

Exactly! Also, I have been buying up the Sorcerous Earths, needed for the bags, on the AH as they will be a lot harder to come by in Legion, and you cant farm them.

Don't forget Alchemists can transmute them too (if it's any cheaper to buy other types on your server).

And from what I've read, Primal Spirits will no longer be soulbound in the near future, so that might help with Sorcerous Earth acquisition.

I am asking because I doubt I can level 4 teams to 100 and gear them plus get the garrisons up and running on each.
