Join us on Discord Watch the show live on Twitch Support the show on Patreon Mount Up Add-on Ren More guides, more news, more updates, more leveling and testing in beta Very little time to work on leveling toons in BfA Complaints inside beta - how much changes Thank the Blizzard gods for Torghast server! Mike Warlock leveling - finally got her to 120 Thanks to Caselock for getting me my Glacial Tidestorm mount This Week in WoW World Quest event starts next week Trial of Style begins Monday, August 31 News A plea for fishing help in beta Blizzard Companion App will support Legion, BoA and Shadowlands when it’s released for the expansion Ray tracing in Shadowlands Diminishing returns in secondary stat ratings After receiving 25% of a secondary stat from gear, increasingly more rating to increase another % from that gear Example: 25% -35%: 10% penalty, up to 49-106%, 40% penalty. Capped at 106%. Speed leveling in Shadowlands in under 3 hours using dungeon boosting - probably not going to stay Yes, Blizzard is giving away beta access keys, but not in the Americas yet. Observations on leveling 50-60 in beta The downside to unpruning Best to worst zones Spoiler: Maw is the worst Best story line: Revendreth Best atmosphere and best sense of humor: Ardenweald Maldraxxus: decent story, very straightforward Bastion: more engaging than I thought the first time around, but still not interesting by comparison Rogue: Assessing the Covenant abilities Tips for things to have from BfA and prior (Goblin Gliders, Abyssal Healing Potions, high quality stat food) Early impressions of gathering and professions

Join us on Discord Watch the show live on Twitch Support the show on Patreon Mount Up Add-on Ren Guides - covenant renown rewards, dungeon perks Beta, lots of beta - level 57 finishing Ardenweald campaign and why you should never train a rogue Even more beta the tl;dr descriptions of Covenants Cocktails of the Covenants But I did a goblin death knight to 63 (more on that later) Mike Rep grinding and leveling a warlock. This Week in WoW Cataclysm Timewalking Free T-Shirt Day today (Sunday) Stormwind: Dwarven District Orgrimmar: Valley of Honor Next Tuesday starts Arena Skirmishes News Naked & Afraid Winners! Ketchupman - Lightforged Discipline Priest, 1 day 5 hours 4 minutes (also fourth with a Troll Enhancement Shaman at 1 day 10 hours 9 minutes) - Horgus mount Guerrie - Void Elf Afflication Warlock with 1 day 7 hours 1 minute - Twilight pet Drexl - Troll Guardian Druid with 1 day 8 hours 14 minutes - Transmorpher Beacon toy Most Persistent: Zignea, with a Lightforged Shadow Priest at 2 days 21 hours 45 minutes. Also thanks to finishers Thecowking, Koloka, Louielegdrop, Kara, Loosechange, and Hank. Koloka also ran more than one character. Pre-patch on the PTR - what’s coming Character creation and customization New Player experience - Exile’s Reach and new leveling paths The level and iLevel squishes Limited time Scourge event No time frame announced, but will be “several weeks” before expansion Scourge event - updated gear from original WoTLK loot tables. Minimum level requirement for those items is 30 (or 80 for those who still speak BFA). Drop off bosses who spawn outside in Icecrown during the scourge event who used to be in dungeons and raids, like Patchwerk. Also zombie attacks in major cities. Prepping for Shadowlands Pre-Patch Level squish is coming to Shadowlands Flying issue in Shadowlands: flying starts at level 30, which is level 80 in current reckoning If you have any characters currently below 60, get them to 60 and teach them flying ASAP. Any characters who know flying going in will not have that skill taken away, even if they are below level 30 under the new system. (Time to make and park that Death Knight you've been wanting, or start at level 8 when the prepatch hits) Gearing for Shadowlands No real gear reset Gear rewards are not super common, neither are drops Maggie is 57 and has still not replaced 5 items - ilevel of blues is about 120, cloak is still 131 at level 4 (unimproved legendary cloak starts at 125). HoA was i489 and is now 132. No powers but still a good amulet. iLevel translations Starting characters in Beta with basic starter gear start out at iLevel 75. Some experimentation with character copy indicates this is about the same as iLevel 400-405. My 443 character started out with iLevel 98. Having gone through the Maw with a starter (75) and a better one (98), the latter is far more survivable Therefore, you should consider iLevel 400 as "starter level". Easiest way to get higher iLevels is to advance your HoA and at least get a cloak, which will be 125 out of the gate with no ranks (remember, blues around level 55-56 are 115-120).

Half the classes on Alliance side have a 120 (warrior, hunter, rogue, shaman, mage, and warlock) No DKs either side; plan Mag’har and Kul’Tiran when allied races become possible. Have lower levels on Alliance side mostly - dwarf pally, lightforged draenei priest, night elf demon hunter. No monk Alliance; plan Mechagnome monk. No druid Alliance; plan Worgen druid (maybe) No tauren or highmountain tauren; none planned. No empty slot for vulpera; will probably make Vulpera priest and retire Blood Elf priest to auction mule duty That will give me all races except 2 Tauren races covered, and all classes represented on both sides.

Because when you get to Westfall you get level 80 recipes Playing a rogue is SO SLOW Exalted with Wavecrest Now I have to work on the turtles This Week in WoW Ongoing: WoW Anniversary Event, Feast of Winter Veil Winter Veil sleigh rides Globe yeti spawn rates significantly increased (1 minute instead of 30 minutes) Greatfather Pepe costume is a no-show Tuesday: World Quest Bonus Event News Classic Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley went live Paid character transfers Classic Winter Veil Retail Korrak’s Revenge - going until 7 January Learned about Korrak’s Revenge, and how Christy got us hooked Favorite stories from KRs - Christmas sweaters, Ren’s language issues, taking Zig through her first BG and then her owning them, Webbley’s laugh, the collective obsession with Stormpike Bowmen, Drexl’s bumming rides, and how Cryler single-handedly sabotaged an entire BG Why you never click anything in tunnels - or, how much fun is it to kick naughty mages XP and Korrak’s Revenge Can go in as low as level 10 when the Group Finder becomes available; have seen a level 12 in there Amount of XP you get increases as you go up in levels. Levels in some ways are depending on activities, but this is what I got for typical runs. In some ways, it depends on your effectiveness. At level 25, I got about 28% of a level for a win (1.07 % for a win) Level 40: 50% of a level for a win (1.2% per level) Level 50: 95% of a level for a win (1.9%) Level 62: 125% of a level for a win (2%) Level 103: nearly 2 levels for a win (2%) Lesson: doesn’t really make sense to go in until at least level 50. No epic speed land mount until 40; can’t get quests til level 60 Korrak: DO NOT KILL HIM THERE. Go to Zul’drak. 8.3 launch date announced: January 14

Mag’har racial opening quest is the WORST -- and a new justification/motivation for leveling another toon Mag’har hunter: running zones using All The Things to identify areas where I haven’t gotten mail transmogs from questing there Bonus: got the Hyacinth Macaw as a random drop The Great UI Experiment - initial impressions and why I’m not going to go through with it after all Random question of the week: who’s taking care of the poor carnies? Mike: Rep. That’s it.

Needed motivation for running up Allied race to 120 for achievement Run an allied race or a non-allied race - no gold, no gear, no heirlooms. Pick a race, class, and spec, and stick with it until 120 (one spec change allowed). Judged on /played time to 120. We encourage running a class or spec you haven’t run before but it isn’t required Nonallied races will have time from 1-20 deducted from total, since allied races start at level 20 Two divisions: Regular and Warmode New this time around: Guilds US-Alliance Silvermoon: Naked & Afraid (could start the same guild Hordeside on Mok’Nathal, the connected server, forr those who want to start Horde races) EU-Alliance Vek’nilash: Naked & Afraid All members will have the power to invite to the guild, at least for a little while. Be careful only to invite people who are familiar with the Naked and Afraid challenge. Perhaps ask them to name the two hosts of the show as a challenge question. @thecowking has made an EU Warcast Community and has posted a link to it on our #worldofwarcast channel on Discord Full rules posted on the #naked-and-afraid-2 Discord channel Wowhead is making a Classic WoW site - classic.wowhead.com, with all the databases, guides, etc. Decided to use modern back-end elements but are using old-school styling such as logos and menus to reflect the retro style Blizzard announced multiple Diablo projects are expected over the coming months Diablo III coming to Nintendo Switch already announced for November 2 There will be a Diablo What’s Next panel shortly after the opening ceremony Patch 8.1 - Notable changes on the PTR and from Ian Hazzikostas QA from the 11th Lots and lots of discussion about azerite armor changes New warfronts will run in a parallel cycle to the current one - you could be contributing to one warfront while attacking in another No plans to make Death Knight class available for new Allied Races anytime soon Several new battle pets associated with the new Darkshore warfront, such as the Darkshore Sentinel (Owl), Void Jelly, Everburning Treant, Detective Ray, Gust of Cyclarus Also new mounts: a bear, nightsabers, chimera, and a kodo. Reins of the Onyx War Hyena will be a new rated PvP mount, and there are a couple frog mounts that have not yet been assigned New pet model for baby raptors Darkmoon Faire Favors achievement has been reduced from six to five profession based quests completed New cooking recipe: Seasoned Steak and Potatoes (maybe something to do with those Thick Paleo Steaks other than the banquets?) Reputation gains from Legion World Quests will be doubled Looking at flight paths - possibly a book to buy at max level that unlocks all the flight paths on alts War Campaign chapters not alt friendly - give almost no reputation when you complete them.

Allen Brack, Wow’s Executive Director for WoW, taking over. Morhaime will remain as a “strategic advisor” to Blizzard. https://blizzcon.com/en-us/news/22456082/throw-your-own-epic-blizzcon-celebration-with-the-virtual-ticket-viewing-party-kit?linkId=100000003674039 Upcoming Azerite armor changes - Blizzard realizes there are problems with the current system Make Azerite armor more available - looking to add Azerite Armor rewards from Emissary quests that scale up to 370, depending on current iLevel. Also mentioned “making further improvements to the ways Emissaries reward gear”. When new Azerite Armor is introduced in “BfA Season 2” (Patch 8.1), armor that currently only has 2 possible traits will get a third. Continuing to work on the individual traits themselves - balancing out those who want more generic traits for wider applicability, vs. those who want to fine-tune traits to specs or situations The first problem - overall availability -- will be hotfixed in before 8.1. The third trait slot and the new abilities won’t come in until the patch. 8.1 news Players beyond level 110 will be able to enter Legion era raids in LFR difficulty Achievements: Noblegarden: “Shake Your Bunny Maker” is being changed to place rabbit ears upon any character over level 18, not just female characters. On the Frontlines: New achievement to complete all six Horde or Alliance assaults Several new Battle Pet achievements, based on previous expansion achievements to defeat all 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with teams of all one pet type (dragonkin, flying, beast, critter, etc) New paladin spell visuals for Flash of Light and Beacon of Light New information on Faction Incursions Will only be for characters 110 or above (Ren: boo) Completing 4 incursions will result in a random 370 weapon or Azerite Armor for quests. These items are from the same item pool from Warfronts (7th Legion/Honorbound items) Will work a lot like Legion Invasions: after completing 4 incursion quests, you have to complete a short scenario to take down an airship Doubleagent the Neutral Panda is now level 117

Trying to get 330+ Revered with Order of Embers. - yummy 335 gear. It’s been all rep and rep and rep and gear. Stalled professions because I can’t make anything decent until I do mythics. I plan on finishing the other zones over the next few days. Need more followers Dills This Week in WoW Trial of Style started - free transmogs! Darkmoon Faire starts Sunday News BfA sold 3.4 million copies on its first day - franchise record Does this only count new purchases on opening day, or does it count prepurchases? Notable hotfixes for the week Auction House changes - will be discussed separately Classes Demon hunters no longer falling to their deaths gliding away from Dazar’alor. Feral druids continuing to receive upgrades to their AOE abilities Creatures and NPCs Treasure hunters around the Deadwash will no longer inadvertantly flag Horde players PvP Dungeons Freehold now has an NPC at the end that will port characters to the beginning Kings’ Rest: enemy casters now have mana bars Items Azerite armor now tradeable Faction items can now be traded back to their Quartermaster for a full refund for 2 hours Professions Inscription - Contract duration is now 7 days Cooking - Foods now provide significantly more health and mana World Quests Profession WQs will now not show up for characters who don’t have that profession Being hit by Frightened Stomps of Frightened Brutosaur during “Underfoot” will no longer flag players World Several missing Zandalar mailboxes have been returned Auction house hotfixes, plus premium 20% extra deposit for tradeskill items. But are the actual numbers going to dissuade sellers? Wide variety of deposit prices for stacks of 1 vs larger stacks Remember: only pay the deposit if the item doesn’t sell Sample items from BfA: Monelite ore, Gloom Dust, Great Sea Catfish - Deposit inflation between 1 stack of 200 and 200 stacks of 1: Great Sea Catfish - 7.5g to 47.5g - or 633% US median 24g - lose 47.5g out of 4800, 1% loss Gloom Dust - 8g to 200g - or 2500% US median 27g, so 200g out of 5400, or 3.7% loss Monelite Ore - 1s 30c to 40g - or 307,000 % US median 48g, so 9600/40, or 0.42 loss HandyNotes has new modules for BfA treasures and achievement points in zones WQ exploit - how it worked, how it has ended Warning: getting whispers from accounts that make you think it’s Blizzard saying you have to go to a website to plead your case because you’re about to be banned - recognize official Blizz communications Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder, Part One - start working on it now for increased mount speed Battle for Azeroth Explorer Explore all 6 zones on both continents Wide World of Quests Complete 100 world quests Azerothian Diplomat Earn Revered with the following factions, Champions of Azeroth and Tortollan Seekers, and the following for each side: Alliance - Proudmoore Admiralty, Storm’s Wake Order of Embers, 7th Legion Horde: Zandalari Empire, Voldunai, Talanji’s Expedition, The Honorbound Either Kul Tourist or Zandalar Forever - complete all main story lines of your side’s three zones Ready for War (faction) - complete your side’s War Campaign - starts with establishing footholds necessary to open world quests. The rest requires becoming Friendly with your side’s war rep (Honorbound or 7th Legion) No dungeon or raid requirements (yet) Mod of the Cast: The alpha release of WORLD QUEST TRACKER.

Episode 294, "327 stairs"

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Mount Up Add-on: https://wow.curseforge.com/projects/mount-up Ren Have 1 level 117 prot paladin and 1 level 114 subtlety rogue Disappointed by pickpocketing Noticed small amount of voice recycling - some of the voices/sayings of the Vulpera are identical to those of pandaren children Navigating the ziggurat: 8 level changes and 327 stairs between the main level and the profession trainers Fossilized Raptor mount now has apparent hip problems Technical issue: keep having problem where my xp bars aren’t showing xp -- just showing rep and artifact power %. Temporary fix: open Rep pane, toggle one of the reps “show as experience bar” on/off. Problem seems unrelated to mods, as it does it even when all mods are off Mike Burning the horde in the Clearcut was fun :D Dinged 120 on Sunday - it was faster than expected. Marie Davenport is the best grandma in WoW WITCHES! Drustvar is amazing Trying to get geared up for heroics - currently 301 Have not finished all zones. Still four whole zones to complete New trick - group members kicking themselves to beat the timer. Got into a dungeon where three people left, no tank Next dungeon got me three pieces. Tailoring has slowed. Still have to deal with enchanting. Haven’t taken a good look at it. WQs open after two Zandalar zones are quick-finished, then one solo island expedition, THEN the third, THEN friendly rep. This Week in WoW PvP Brawl: Gravity Lapse event Seemingly not going for weekly stuff for another few weeks into the expansion at least News and BfA Do the city quests first - leads to other benefits Example: Pests in northern area of Horde city called the Zocalo - be sure to pick up “Pests” - gives you access to Jani, the Loa of Scavengers. As you’re out and about, you will sometimes get a whisper from her that you’ve found a “shiny trinket” - find her trash pile to get a treasure chest Horde - starts in the Zocalo, the northern part of the city, so do this right away. Alliance: starts in Shatterstone Harbor in Vol’dun, so you don’t get this one til later Changing and advancing professions in BfA Advantage to changing: you can start along with everyone else When you change the profession, you have to click TWICE - once to get the initial Vanilla levels, and then a second time to learn the Zandalari profession Check to make sure you pick up all your level 1 abilities and recipes - you get them automatically sometimes (cooking) and not other times (gathering professions) Worth getting your other profession alts at least started in the city - early level stuff can be useful, such as the level 1 Rubellite recipe in JC (Insightful Rubellite - +5% xp) and the Zandalari tradeskill glove enchants. Rubelite currently selling for around 70g on Whisperwind AH; Zandalari tradeskill enchants are pretty cheap also if you don’t want to DIY Developer Q&A with Ian Hazzikostas: some highlights Feral druid AOE tuning has been improved but isn’t finished yet. 120 power setback is noticeable - looking in future expansions to smooth it out so you don’t feel like hitting max level is a huge backward jump Autoaccept removed from groups: development believed autoaccept for groups and using addons for searching for groups created an imbalance between those who used addons and those who didn’t. (Ren does not approve) AH is showing its age, particularly on high pop servers. Search options too limited May introduce deposits that would reward people with bulk pricing -- higher deposits for people who post a single stack of a stackable trade good (what could go wrong?) Community moderation coming in the next patch Azerite armor will be tradeable starting after next week’s patch (“they don’t want players to abuse the system to look for the best possible class/trait combination to loot a certain piece of azerite armor”) AP needed to advance your Heart of Azeroth will be reduced New models incoming for goblins and worgen (please fix hats!) Is this expansion “alt friendly”? Takes me about 20 minutes to get from beginning of entry quests to in the first inn, bound, and basic professions upgraded. Multiply that by 13 level 110s and that’s over 4 hours just to get everyone in the game. Not even counting the 1 Horde and 1 Alliance character I needed to take through the whole thing. Are side quests a problem?

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Mount Up Add-on: https://wow.curseforge.com/projects/mount-up This Week in WoW: Pet battle bonus event Darkmoon Faire starts Sunday News: Lots of hotfixes to classes, creatures, professions, raids, dungeons and quests - almost daily since prepatch Hotfix to experience: experience required to level has been lowered for all levels 40-100. Reduction averages 14% between 60-80, with smaller reductions at other levels. Quest log bug - “Due to an issue, during a short time between 1st of August, 09:30 pm and 2nd of August 01:45 am players would get all their quest log abandoned when using a teleportation ability, such as hearthstone or mage portal. This issue is fixed by now, and we will try to assist you with recovering your quest progress. If you lost a progress of a quest, that can be completed during single play session, please, proceed by restarting this quest. If you were impacted by this issue and you lost a progress of a multistep quest, that takes several days to complete or a quest that you are not able to pick up anymore, we will try to recover the progress. Please, note, that we do not guarantee to recover progress as it was before the loss, but we will do our best.” War of Thorns parts 1&2: thoughts

Now have leave to spend small amounts of time out so I can type, but WoW doesn’t work Playing turn based strategy games instead Tried a multi button gaming mouse and the compact keypad and neither worked well Figured out the art of mouse flying but fighting is nearly impossible Finished home renovation projects Only real post-patch activity is logging onto characters and resetting talents Mike: Tried to get in on Tuesday. Nope. This Week in WoW: Who knows -- it’s been damn near impossible to play This week: Battleground Bonus Event - next week, Legion Dungeon Event News: CALL THE ORKIN MAN became OMG the bugs Drivers Some people reporting their drivers are fully up to date but Blizzard still flagging them for having un-updated drivers Legion App: Problems with only being able to access 3 characters Only way to change characters: log completely out of the app, sign back in, and select the starting character you want BlizzardCS confirmed in a tweet on 7/19: “Switch Character button was intentionally removed. You now switch characters by logging out, then logging in again. You'll be taken to the list of characters to select from at that point.” Cue well deserved community shit fit.

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Mount Up Add-on: https://wow.curseforge.com/projects/mount-up Happy 13th! Ren Cocktail of the Cast: Julep Zecca Italiana About 80% through the “Home Flooring Renovation” achievement Completed the new pre-expansion quest line on paladin - upgraded artifact from 75 to 126 Purchased a small one-handed gaming keyboard from DeLux - $30. Taking some time to get used to but may be easier to use than full sized keyboard when I’m one handed. Only real problem is maneuvering while flying Other issue: no English instructions came with it Mike I made a thing. I thought I needed things from Midsummer - nope. Did the artifact thing Poop quest :P Still need to do the mage tower This Week in WoW Midsummer Fire Festival continues through July 5 (Thursday) This Week: Arena Skirmishes; next week, World Quest Bonus Event Darkmoon Faire starts Sunday, July 1 News Pre-expansion artifact quest in Silithus went live this week Achievement: Crucible’s Promise - upgrades your artifact from 75 to 126 Several of the Silithus quests are NOT REQUIRED to complete this (but you can’t skip the trips to Stormwind or Orgrimmar) Only the quests directly from Nolan Speed (Alliance) and Grol Warblade (Horde) are required to complete the quest line First Horde quest: motivate peons; first Alliance quest, collect Mysterious Ore by killing goblins. Horde quest turns in to Grol. Alliance has turn-in for Mysterious Ore going to a dwarf, but then return to Nolan Speed to pick the line back up. From this point on, the main line is identical, Horde or Alliance. Pick up “The Twilight Survivor” from Nolan or Grol. Ignore “Desert Research” because it’s just a breadcrumb to an unnecessary gnome or goblin line. Pick up “A Recent Arrival” to talk to Khadgar, and this leads to the end. You can skip ALL the gnome quests (Alliance) and goblin quests (Horde) and the outhouse quest and it does not affect progress. These extras provide color and 18g but no rep or other rewards Confirmed upgraded ALL owned weapon artifacts, whether they are on you or in the bank When you have completed this quest, if you complete any other weapon quests, these fully upgrade as soon as you shift into that specialization Underlight Angler graphics do what the regular artifacts do and it shows TRILLIONS of AP, but doesn’t actually upgrade the Angler (AP yellow bar still shows proper amount of points. Display bug) Reportedly making the Mage Tower much easier to complete and sudden uptick in new guilds finishing Mythi and Cutting Edge Argus the Unmaker achievements. Mage Tower is now live 24/7 Forbes Interviews with Ion Hazzikostas Change in BFA: Prevent players from swapping gear in high difficulty Mythic+ dungeons - make it consistent with not changing talents mid-encounter. Mythic+ now requires complete speccing (talents AND gear) for the entire dungeon, which Blizzard now views as a single encounter. New Azerite armor Can’t be warforged or titanforged Only source that can be run repeatedly is normal or heroic dungeons Can be gained as a world quest emissary reward, but not from world quests themselves Can get as a weekly PvP or conquest reward, but not at the end of a match Mythic dungeons - not from box at the end, but only from the weekly reward box Clear tiers of Azerite armor Communities Will not be cross faction (“we’re at war!”] Yay Discord! Confirmed the following are all going away in the prepatch: First Aid achievements Ahead of the Curve and Cutting Edge achievements Violet Spellwing mount quest from killing Argus. Guaranteed mount drops from mythic Argus and Gul’dan in The Nighthold will become rare drops The Chosen title (killing bosses in mythic Trial of Valor without dying) Brawler’s Guild seasonal achievements Legion Elite PvP armor sets, achievements related to the Ashran battlefield and several other Legion specific PvP achievements Mentioned Fisherfriends of the Isles isn’t going away but will be a lot easier to achieve now that there are huge groups doing it Professions Professions system is “changing dramatically” Each expansion will have its own separate skill tier level\ Analogy: Pandaria cooking If you have 800 skill in a profession, you’ll be at 100 skill level in each expansion’s profession tier, and will start BFA as level 1 for BFA crafting. If you have 650, for example, you will have 100 through Pandaria, then 50 for Warlords, and no Legion Also means is that if all you want to do is craft items for Battle of Azeroth, there’s nothing you have to do - you do not need to get your profession to 800 - there is no advantage because all 800 profession skill level means now is that you will have 100 level in all expansion tiers short of BFA. Everyone will start at level 1 for BFA crafting and gathering. Question: how is racial profession bonus going to figure into this? Also means if you want to change professions, it’s a great time to do it. Ian’s advice: professions “extremely optional” to level up - “don’t worry about anything other than the Mage Tower”. No specific events planned for prepatch that will boost levels the way the Legion invasions did BFA kinder to alts? Only things specifically mentioned: artifact necklace will work for all specs - no having to develop separate necklaces for tanking, DPS and healing No class legendaries

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Episode 289 Ren Finished Fisherfriend of the Isles ALMOST finished Lucid Nightmare Got into Beta, but no time to do anything about it On Sylvanus server, copied my Horde paladin Krystoff onto it and created a Warcast channel Mike Nothing Well, did some beta w/Ali but basically covered the same ground as pre-reset. Guild moving to horde This Week in WoW Pet Battle Bonus Event Next week: Cataclysm Timewalking Midsummer Fire Festival starts Thursday, June 21 New from 2017: Set of Matches toy (500 Burning Blossoms), Igneous Flameling pet (350 Burning Blossoms), Illusion: Deathfrost from Ahune (Slave Pens) News BfA news 8.0 prepatch live on the PTR Players gain access to a multitude of features and system updates in the pre-patch, including Communities, War Mode, the new Honor System, overhauled Professions, and Legion's final storyline leading up to Burning of Teldrassil and the Battle for Lordaeron. Artifacts will be disabled when the pre-patch goes live. Player power will be buffed to compensate for the power loss. Class Changes A stat/item squish Legendaries won't work past level 115. Retired artifacts lose all their traits and become normal weapons, with stats scaling with relics installed in the artifact weapon. The main artifact effect of each spec's weapons is becoming a talent instead, as are several class specific legendaries. Underlight Angler was originally showing as disabled, but the latest build fixed it. WoW Classic Will start with 1.12 Drums of War: Features introduced in 1.12 included: Cross realm battlegrounds (Alterac Valley, Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin) World PvP Some of the past things from previous patches that will be included as a result: Ruins and Temple of Ahn'Qiraj - so this will be after opening those Blackwing Lair Darkmoon Faire Raid dungeon timers, calendars and lockouts The high level class dungeon armor sets Weather Quest experience for gold at level 60 Final destination flight paths Linked auction houses Some world holidays Soul shard bags (!!!) Expected issues with the first prototype didn't recognize current video cards and was incompatible with the current login/authentication server (authenticator became available 2 Jun 2008, almost 2 years after 1.12's release on 22 August 2006) Does not support modern security and anti-cheating capabilities Second prototype: instead of going forward with old code, work backward: take the modern back-end code and use it to process Patch 1.12 game data Start with modern architecture, security and stability - catalogue any differences in behavior between the development build and the Patch 1.12 reference build Three types of game data: Table data: numbers - hit points, stats, spawn timers, etc. File data: dense data such as 3d models, textures, animations, terrain, user interface, and art models (don't use the same file formats as commercial art tools - no jpgs, tifs, etc. Lua scrips: custom behaviors for server side logic without needing engineering knowledge Engineering challenges All classic data is in original form since launch, but format has changed substantially over the year. Modern client is not compatible with old data. Master data problem: from single line on a master table to multiple linked tables catalogued by ID number much richer environment but not compatible with the single line system For example, spells could only apply up to three actions on a target in classic In current form, spells no longer limited to three effects and are formatted differently Almost all other data such as items, characters, creatures, NPCs, AI, spawning and more) have had their database formats changed

Halfway through Field Medic (got some repeat quest drops) Really starting to focus on my N&A toon Ren called for June 1st to official deadline. Can still work on it and complete it but after deadline, finishers won’t be announced on the show. Summer gets busy. Maybe a new challenge at some point? Never know with Ren! My N&A toon is almost 65, determined to get it done in time Ren spoke again about starting a Warcast guild on Silvermoon-US. Alliance side? We’ve been discussing different names on discord!

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/starmike Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Ren: Success on BunofSteel and “the wolf in sheep’s clothing” Fisherfriends fun - though if you have a choice, don’t do melee Soloing normal dungeons Mike: T3 chest! BfA beta walkthrough Green proto-drake Primal Fire i1000 chest This Week in WoW Pet Battles Children's Week starts Monday 30th - through Monday 7th Volunteer Guard Day Mini-event Saturday the 28th Next week: Burning Crusade Timewalking Q&A Ion spent a lot of time covering the change to GCD They still want feedback wrt how the class feels Some abilities such as Charge, Infernal Strike and Heroic Leap for warriors and DIsengage for hunters being taken off GCD In Final Fantasy XIV, everything is on GCD, but the GCD is 2.5s, but can be reduced with gear. They want people to make decisions - A or B instead of A and B. Azerite Power being renamed Artifact Power There will be a way to respec traits. Talking about adding in that functionality later, and a return to the old respeccing a la vanilla (paying an increasing scale for respecs, with decay) BfA should be more alt-friendly. Heart of Azeroth -- universal for all specs instead of having to develop AP in multiple weapons New BGs called Epic Battlegrounds Large battlegrounds are being split off Removing blacklisting from Battlegrounds Strand of the Ancients is being removed in BfA (not sure if temporary or permanent) Ashran is being temporarily retired. No plans to deactivate racials in rated PvP All loot will be personal loot Will still be flagged going into an enemy major city, whether you are in War Mode or not More BfA stuff Battle Pets in beta: Some nerfs incoming: Bone Serpent: swapped positions of Call Darkness and Lift-Off Practical upshot: This is a huge nerf. Call of Darkness now shares the slot with Nocturnal Strike. Call of Darkness blinds all pets, and Nocturnal Strike always hits if the target is Blinded. In combination, this is huge. Having to choose between them now significantly reduces its power. (Workaround: do the Frostfur Rat with Call Darkness and Sneak Attack) Crow and Gilnean Raven: -200 power, +200 speed Cyclone: Damage changed from 7 to 3-7 Haunt: returns the pet at 50% health instead of 100 Teroclaw Hatchling: Dodge and Nature's Ward will now occupy the same tier as will Hawk Eye and Ravage. Practical upshot: Slot 2 will now put Dodge (4 round cooldown) and Nature's Ward (5 round heal) on same tier, basically making you choose between damage mitigation or pet heal. Pet Battle World Quests incoming and will scale to the highest pet on your team (NOT apply to wild pets outside world quests) New pet battle mechanics: Random weather effects More heals that have increased effects on pet's health Aura effects that heal your pet or damages enemy pet based on the last hit dealt From the Discord: N&A finishers: Congrats to Buffysummers - Human Windwalker Monk for finishing N&A with 23,055 gold 4/1/43 Shoutout ot Dodoobrawn-Bladefist - nice fishing with you! Hello to Mrs. Dodoobrawn as well. Question: Why do you still need a WoD garrison? Is it worth going back if you have a character who skipped it?

No bueno cjracer20 in Discord suggested premades. Will do that soon™ Did not get into alpha this week yet. Ali couldn’t Monday, and then Wednesday turned into hell. Been doing follower missions. Mount and mog runs. Tailoring/enchanting finally at 800. Went through old pics. This Week in WoW Mage Tower currently active on North American realms Legion Timewalking this week. Pet Battle event next week General News Blizzard Balance can now be gifted - send a friend an electronic gift card with a personalized message Remote Auction House: Blizzard confirmed in a blue message that the reason they closed the RAH is that a "tiny fraction of one percent" of their user base was actually using the RAH and it was not worth their time and effort anymore to keep it updated Battle for Azeroth In-Game Communities: Quoting Wowhead: “This system will allow you to have broader communication options with fellow community members, including multiple text channels, text channel history, simple role management, quick join, voice integration, roster listing and calendar invites. You will be able to be part of multiple communities at the same time, in addition to your current guild.” Interview at Pax East with lead designer Daniel Stahl and lead encounter designer Morgan Dey about Island Expeditions: More intelligent AI in NPC encounters Some AI groups may be aggressive - others may be passive and require you to chase them down Weather improved and may be a factor Different mobs may appear at different times of the day "Fog of War" Blizzard has confirmed people will still be able to get class mounts after BfA has launched Tribute to last year’s BlizzCon Costume Contest winner Kazplay - when Horde invades the Stockades, they encounter a human female in a cage with a crumpled costume next to her: Text: “Look, it's just a costume! See? Feel it! Now will you tell them to let me out of here? It was just a joke! Hogger wasn't really terrorizing Stormwind!” Alpha News: Battle for Lordaeron scenario now playable on Alpha Heart of Azeroth item levels show ranges with iLevel starting at 265 and going up one point per level from there. Highest they show is at level 300 with an iLevel of 564 Mag'har and Dark Iron Dwarves now playable in Alpha. Maghar racials: Ancestral Call - Invoke the spirits of your ancestors granting you their power. Increases a random secondary stat by 102 for 12 seconds. Open Skies - Increases mounted speed by 10%. Savage Blood - Reduces the duration of Poisons, Diseases, and Curses by 10%. Sympathetic Vigor - Increases pet health by 10%. Dark Iron Dwarves: still no reports on what the Mole Machine racial does Blood Elf and Human racials seriously nerfed. From the Discord: Bucket Lists Expansion Countdown: 116 days to Expansion (3 months, 25 days / 16 weeks and 4 days / 2784 hours) Congrats to Alberthe for getting the Forgotten Hippogryph mount Mightymurloc for the new Kara mount Txcoolkid for finishing FIeld Medic Suggests joining a Field Medic premade group, as did Cjracer20 It’s not a shared drop (personal loot) but since there is a lot of competition and in some areas the respawn is fast, you have a greater chance of being able to loot more mobs

Finally finishing up getting followers to 950 Noblegarden fun Field Medic This Week in WoW Pandaria Timewalking this week, Battleground Bonus event next week Darkmoon Faire Noblegarden (ends Monday) March of the Tadpoles (Borean Tundra - ends tonight at midnight) News: General and Current April Fool’s patch notes Remote Auction House is retiring on April 18th. Realm connections New round of realm connections is “on the way” to help with low pop servers. Family Guy: a 30 second Leeroy Jenkins reference. News: Battle for Azeroth 8 - 14 - 18 Ren’s Ridiculous Fun Facts about the History of Blizzcon Expansions Collector’s Edition - box set Limited edition hardcover edition - 2 new WoW novellas by Christie Golden and Robert Brooks Horde & Alliance Double Sided Mark of Allegiance with stand Digital soundtrack Collector’s Edition box set owners will be able to unlock and create unreleased Allied Races in advance If you bought Digital Deluxe and want Collector’s Edition box, you can get a refund on Digital Deluxe to Battle.net balance Digital Deluxe edition - mounts, pet Island Expansions Expedition table in Boralus Harbor (Alliance) or Zuldazar Harbor (Horde) 3 man - Normal, Heroic, Mythic or PvP - reward of 6,000 Azurite Azurite: killing mobs, finding treasure, defeating the opposing team, or mining nodes Drawn on “lessons learned” from past content like scenarios and keystone dungeons. Replayable content. WoWhead interview with Jeremy “Muffinus” Feasel, Senior Game Designer for WoW No death knights for allied races - tied to Lich King Other possible rewards for Island Expeditions, like in the Timeless Isle When asked whether quest and profession progression will be gated behind dungeons and raids: No real discussion yet on profession progression, although he did say he thought ending final part of certain questlines end in a dungeon was “super cool, as it is the best way to tell the end of the story”. Felt that artifact weapon system was interesting in the beginning of the expansion but not at the end of it. Lots of choices in the beginning and none in the end. Discussion about making certain things accountwide -- seemed to think things were pretty OK the way they were. Too much accountwide stuff and characters lose identity, but opening areas, flying, etc., seem to be good kept accountwide. Battle for Azeroth Mag’har Orcs and Iron Dwarf allied races will be available after completing the Battle for Azeroth war campaign. Zandalari and Kul’Tiras will be unlocked later in the expansion. BFA alpha lasting longer than in the past. Beta polishes features and features are still being added to alpha. Six emissaries for each faction - 3 home continent, two neutral (Tortollan and Voice of Azeroth) and a War Faction with quests on the enemy continent. 8.0 prepatch Likely a few weeks before the expansion Will introduce the Burning of Teldrassil and Battle for Lordaeron. May be new mounts themed around Night Elves and Forsaken in conjunction with this event. New details on PvP New world PvP system called War Mode: players toggle PvP in a capitol city on any server. This will put them in a separate server shard, away from the PvE characters. War Mode gives extra rewards and Azerite, and also allows access to special world PvP events. PvP gear system revamp: conquest point system returning in the form of a bar you fill up to earn new gear each week. When you’re finished with a set, you can move up. There will be ways to skip ahead. Changes to Honor and Prestige: honor levels will be account wide. Naked and Afraid FInisher: Alcina, night elf mage -- 110

Mike So close to finishing up this rep from Hell. Thanks to Ali for filling in last week about alpha Infinite Timereaver mount dropped while doing timewalking. That was fun. Alpha is still fun, but obviously limited in scope at the moment. There was a 1GB patch. Maybe I’ll try tanking again. I have a ton of quests I need to finish up. The Argus version of the flight whistle should have been available at honored, not revered. This Week in WoW Not much - Arena Skirmishes, then World Quest Event next Tuesday On the horizon: Noblegarden (4/2 - 4/9) (Mike - I HATE NOBLEGARDEN) News Hotfixes: Mythic Antorus now available for cross-realm groups, though not through LFR. “To join a public group for Mythic Antorus, just open Group Finder (hotkey: i), select 'Premade Groups', then 'Raids-Legion', then click on "Find A Group". That returns a list of many public groups that are available to you. Start typing 'Antorus' into the search bar at the top, and you'll be prompted to select a difficulty.” Battle for Azeroth New Alpha Build changes: Achievements to unlock Dark Iron Dwarves and Mag’har Orcs added Dark Iron racial mount: core hound Latest build tagged “beta” instead of “alpha” and new invitations out New “boop” emote Some new enchanting stuff: Swift Hearthing: bracer enchant to speed cast time of hearthstone Gale-Force Striking: weapon enchant to increase weapon attack speed First Aid confirmed going away - bandages will be under Tailoring and antivenoms/pots will be under Alchemy New customization options for Blood Elves - three new faces and glowing gold eyes Azerite bonuses datamined: Set bonuses also going away, being replaced by Azurite empowerment on armor Several class specific traits, but also several that appear to be multi-class Traits that increase primary and secondary stats by a set amount Absorption traits - traits that shield or absorb a set amount of damage DPS,heal, and tanking traits. DPS obviously increases your DPS, healing traits are self-heals, and tanking traits are damage mitigation: Examples: (DPS) Gutripper - Your damaging abilities have a chance to deal 347 Physical damage to the target. Gutripper occurs much more often against targets below 30% health. (Approximately 5 procs per minute). (DPS) Heed My Call - Your damaging abilities have a chance to deal 154 to your target, and 15 to enemies within 3 yards of that target. (HEAL) Savior - Your heals on targets below 35% health have a chance to heal for an additional 208. (Approximately 5 procs per minute). (HEAL) Self Reliance - While no enemies are within 20 yds, you heal for 70 every 3 sec. (TANK) Gemhide - When dealt damage greater than 10% of your maximum health, gain 31 Avoidance and 138 Dodge for 10 sec. (TANK) Winds of War - Taking damage grants you 14 Dodge for 3 sec, stacking up to 10 times. New detail on parrot mount: drops from Skycap'n Kragg, boss in the Freehold dungeon From the Discord Naked & Afraid Challenge has its second finisher - TheCowKing (EU) with a feral druid - 4 days 1 hour 1 minute Current highest still in progress - Settlersrule (101) windwalker monk

I also haven’t upgraded yet. When I get to exalted in all 4, then I’ll do it. No rush now. Farming for the Love Rocket. No drops. Achievement runs Cara Heroic Antorus 2/11, first bosses aren’t too different Haven’t upgraded to BfA yet because I still feel like I have plenty to do without it right now, curious to see how long that will last But also I don’t really care about things as much as I used to? Like it’s still super fun! But I don’t feel like I NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED it. I.e. Love Rocket runs, I do them when I can but I don’t frustrate myself trying to fit them into my day I did claim my character names I want for my BfA allied race alts though. Seems they freed up a lot of names recently so if you have a name you couldn’t get before, give it a shot now! Me too! -MG (kek) This week in WoW Darkmoon Faire until the 11th Lunar Festival starts a week from today Ulduar News: BfA alpha is going out to some people. Not me :( Watched a few streams.

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/starmike Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Ren: N&A monk now level 62 with 1 day 20 hours /played and almost 15k gold Utilized the one-switch rule to respec from brewmaster to windwalker around level 45 Went “in order” until about level 40, and then went out of order doing zones where I had no transmogs (Burning Steppes, Stonetalon, and Southern Barrens) - thank you All The Things. Finished to 60 in Winterspring to level up mining Went straight to Northrend (Howling Fjord), skipped Outland entirely Mike: Working on rep and mounts. Still working on that Nerf Scrapbots achievement. Is it bugged? This Week in WoW Burning Crusade Timewalking Call of the Scarab ended Tuesday Arena Skirmishes start Tuesday Kirin Tor Tavern Crawl mini event Wednesday News Battle of Azeroth Collectors’ Edition perks datamined - https://www.wowhead.com/news=281070/battle-for-azeroth-collectors-edition-rewards-seabraid-stallion-gilded-ravasaur-?webhook/battle-for-azeroth-collectors-edition-rewards-seabraid-stallion-gilded-raptor-to - Seabraid Stallion (Alliance), Gilded Ravasaur (Horde) and Tottle (turtle pet) Shu-zen, the Divine Sentinel flying dog mount datamined - probably part of Lunar Festival (Year of the Dog) starting Feb 16 Transmog bug - people reporting not being able to transmog while wearing some items from [Satchel of Helpful Goods] Changes to Recruit a Friend: Experience gains reduced from 200 to 50%. Heirloom XP bonus no longer stacks with RAF XP bonuses Patch 7.3.5 hotfixes this week Lost Mail - now properly spawns at random Dalaran locations and Postmaster title is now account-wide. Fixed the Normal/Heroic HP pool boss switch Raiding fixes take boss HP levels BELOW previous levels Fixed the bug that made pet names disappear Boulder quest in Redridge has been fixed Patch 7.3.5 - Leveling Transitions between expansions No big gear reset until level 61, when item levels jumped from 60 to 80 Professions do transfer but not smoothly When you buy your skill for mining/herbs from 300, it now goes to 450 instead of 375 (both expansions) Experience with mining: could gather and learn to smelt both Fel Iron (Outland) and Cobalt Ore (Northrend). Started with 252 mining; could only gather Cobalt Ore Nuggets By level 325, still only collecting nuggets. Went to Outland and confirmed I could collect whole Fel Iron Ore. However, Fel Iron was gray (getting no skill). Cobalt Ore still orange (getting skill) Last level to get Cobalt Nuggets: 340. Started getting whole cobalt at 341. Cobalt Ore gathers still orange and still getting orange skill from smelting. Turned Yellow at 350. Turned Green at 362. Can get 80+ mining skill points off smelting alone (started slowing down at 355) - market has not caught up on all servers, but on Silvermoon ore is selling for 5x more than bars. Filius reported re: manufacturing professions, also skipping to Northrend: There are recipes to make things at your level, but the results may not be usable. Was making potions that he could create in low 60s that were only usable by mid-70s. Idea: how to find what’s good to sell?

Discord: http://discord.worldofwarcast.com Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/starmike Twitch: http://twitch.tv/starmiketv Ren - Did transmog count, found out only had 17% of mail transmogs Kind of Argussed out Running WoW off new SSD .. makes an enormous difference Mike - Still having problems with XT achievement. One day we get to 18, the next, 0 I got a pony! I lost 700 achievement points, probably due to rearranging the achivements. Mournful Moan of Murmur is now up and running after TWO YEARS of being broken. I have not yet tried to level a toon yet. The price of Celendras dropped like a rock. From 750k to 50k. When you go into Ulduar, it’s now 10-man no matter what you set raid to. It took forever to kill Galleon and Sha of Anger. Zone quests are now gauged by chapters, not numbers of quests completed. I was mailed all the new mats. This Week in WoW Pet Battle Event Call of the Scarab - Jan 21-23 Patch 7.3.5 Patch notes: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/21365423 Undocumented patch notes Known issues: Mobile/web AH disabled Dungeon boss HP levels reversed Normal vs. Heroic Raid boss difficulty - difficulty turned up for Warlords/Pandaria raids to put in line with leveling characters but overtuned them Pet names disappearing New backpack slots not showing up right away for new authenticators Last wing of Argus LFR was bugged - if you wipe you can’t get back in Redridge quest Saving Foreman Oslow not working Patch 7.3.5: Leveling The leveling experience: uneven reviews Journey vs destination Ren’s personal experiences doing N&A and feedback from the N&A participants Professions: 1-60 profession progression still klunky Still have old gathers (copper ore, thorium ore, peacebloom, goldthorn) tied to former zones Level gains from herb/ore gathers still about the same as it was - about 1.7% of total level XP per gather for lower level gathers (reduces over time - was down slightly below 1% at level 63) Leather/cloth gathers still tied to former zones (eg. leather experiment in Azeroth, cloth in BC/WOTLK) Mobs and equipment scale to the toon, but profession drops still scale to the zone Pro: You can still do predictable lower level farming Con: Leveling might be a freedom of choice experience, but leveling professions is not -- still tied to old zone definitions Solution: Flatten mats to three tiers -- levels 1-20, 20-40 and 40-60. Enchanting squish did not go far enough, may have skipped guild banks entirely Naked & Afraid 2018 Ren is level 19 in N&A - not highest toon but has the most gold (Maxx, gnome outlaw rogue, is level 30 with 9 hours /played) Started Wednesday, 1/17 - join in anytime 3 official servers but you don’t have to join Lots of minor rule clarifications, one major change Almost 30 official participants so far Shout out to MythGamingMN for streaming his N&A.

Slowly getting everyone completed with the Argus campaign New toon: male blood elf protection paladin (going to go brewmaster monk for N&A) - almost level 40 Discussion: What makes you keep an alt? (@Cattarina and the “nursery of alts”) Mike More Ulduar achievements Still can’t do XT. Tried on alts. Just bad luck. Going to finish up Argus because I’ve neglected it too long. This Week in WoW Third wing of Antorus is open Battleground bonus event Darkmoon Faire opens Sunday Did we all watch Jeff Kaplan by the fire? News Legion Attunement Tracker on Wowhead now tracks Allied race unlock requirements Nightborne unlocks with completing Suramar (Good Suramaritan) Highmountain unlocks with completing High mountain (Aint No Mountain High Enough) Void Elf and Lightforged Draenei open with completing the Argus campaign (You Are Now Prepared!) Attunement tool at http://www.wowhead.com/attunement New hunter pets on PTR for 7.3.5 - including ones obviously meant to be starter pets for new allied races Nightborne: Manasaber Highmountain Tauren: Great Eagle Void Elf: Voidstalker Lightforged Draenei: Lightforged Talbuk Other hunter pets include beasts clearly from Argus, such as umbralfins, dustcloaks, and chitinbuks, and ones clearly associated with Silithus like silithids, flying hornets, scorpids, and spiders Allied race racials: more complete data. (Speculate on best classes?) Nightborne: Hunter, Mage, Monk, Priest, Rogue, Warlock, Warrior +15 to inscription=, increased magical damage by 1, access maili for 1.5 minutes (cooldown 10 minutes), A Force Shield that deals arcane damage and snares them by 50%, lasts 20 seconds (no info on cooldown), 1% magic resistance Highmountain Tauren: Druid, Hunter, Monk, Shaman, Warrior charge that knocks down enemies for 1.5 seconds (2 minute cooldown), +15 to mining and faster mining, +1% to versatility, overall damage reduction by 330 (scale?) and increased chance to loot additional meat and fish. Void Elf: Hunter, Mage, Monk, Priest, Rogue, Warlock, Warrior 1% reduction of shadow and arcane damage, “your abilities have a chance to empower you with the essence of the void” (?), reduces void storage and transmog costs by 50%, spell casts not delayed by taking damage, and a built-in rift teleportation similar to warlock gating (2 minute cooldown). Lightforged Draenei: Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Warrior 20% extra xp for killing demons, +10 to blacksmithing plus summoning a Forge of Light on demand, reduce holy damage by 1%, call down a strike of holy energy damaging enemies within 5 yards after 3 sec, and “erupt with light upon death, dealing holy damage to enemies and healing allies). Speculation: Allied races are not going to be introduced in 7.3.5, but there are plenty of files being pushed to the servers about four of the six races, which gives Bliz the option of releasing them before the expansion. Thoughts? Original dry run of Leeeeroy Jenkins video https://youtu.be/8hmgrHohDGM From the Discord: How to do less damage for raid achievements, without having to de-equip items or gear: From @OPH on Discord: brought up there was a toy or shirt that used to exist that would reduce damage output by 90%. This is true. Whole Body Shrinka toy, which shrinks you down to a tiny size and does reduce your damage output to about 10% -- lasts for 3 minutes but has a 30 minute cooldown. Soft Foam Sword also allows you to "mortally wound" a trivial enemy, but it isn't usable in dungeons or raids. What else could be done? Came up with a cheap engineering solution even non-engineers can use. Further discussion on queuing a Broken Shore class hall mission for Broken Shore Campaign - @settlersrule said he was forced to take a 3 day elite mission because that was all that was available. Tips on how to manage this situation. From Twitter: Going back to my report that the Murky world quest dismounts you when you fly over it, apparently it’s not just Murky, but any quest where you morph. @Frenzol informed me the wisp quest in Val’sharah does the same thing.

Incoming for 7.3.5 - (no release date; not even up on PTR yet) Timewalking Ulduar, new battleground Event in Silithus to herald in the start of expansion Leveling Improvements (yay!!!!!) All content previous to Warlords will SCALE TO LEVEL - within ranges Classic starting zones: 1-10 All old world vanilla zones: 10-60 Burning Crusade and Wrath zones: 60-80 Cataclysm and Pandaria zones: 80-90 What this means: You can actually complete zones without leveling out of them and feeling forced to move on and you can choose where you level up Dungeons will also scale accordingly - so will loot drops (yes, run Wailing Caverns at 60 and you’ll get level 60 mobs and level 60 gear) Incoming also - no release date Accounts with an authenticator attached will get a “small increase” to the size of their standard 16 slot backpack - may be connected to WoW’s upcoming 13th anniversary event (Nov 16-30) Expansion: Battle for Azeroth (not Tides of Vengeance) - also no release date Basics: Level to 120 (one instant boost to 110) Return to faction based play areas Bye-bye Teldrassil and Undercity (but not Silvermoon and Exodar) -- hello each faction controlling their own continent Does the zone control mean no leveling zones for the opposite faction? New island zones Zandalar and Kul Tiras with three areas for each Horde: Zandalar - obviously troll focused Alliance: Kul Tiras - naval power (which we’ve never seen because apparently they’re so good they can hide the most powerful navy in the world from everyone until now) New subraces: the four we mentioned on the last show plus two more (Horde: Highland Tauren, Nightborne and Zandalari Troll. Alliance: Void Elf, Lightforged Draenei and Dark Iron Dwarves). Will get 6 new character slots on each server You have to open these subraces via quests -- once opened it’s accountwide Subraces start at level 20. You can race-switch into them using Blizzard game services, but if you run one from 20 to 120 you get an achievement plus special heritage armor transmog 3-person Island Cooperative challenge gameplay Changing mini scenarios on islands Would like to have seen this scalable to other size groups - 3 is awkward 20-person raids called Warfronts to claim strategic locations this is a PvE system, not PvP, “inspired by classic Warcraft RTS battles” (Ren: Damn good thing or the Horde on Whisperwind is screwed) Artifact amulet (Heart of Azeroth) instead of an artifact weapon - a system with a sort of mini-talent tree used to select and empower abilities - replacements for the Artifact, Artifact Power and Netherlight Crucible systems from Legion Powered by Azerite, will automatically absorb Azerite when it’s nearby Helm, chest, and shoulders will be empowered through Heart of Azeroth Probably will need an entire episode just on this - but practical upshot is the artifact weapons are going away and this is the replacement PVP/PVE server distinction is going away - now it will be selectable Internal sharding allows PVP-flagged players to see/group with only one another, and PVE-unflagged players to see/group only with one another All servers will run under same rules of engagement Only place you can flag PVP is in capital cities - can’t flag PVP on the fly No randomly flagged people running around PvP gives added bonuses in addition to added risk Item level decrease incoming Not exactly the warlords “stat squish” where numbers were reduced across the board Numbers from the Dungeon Journal in the demo at Blizzcon - 880 items were showing up as 215, 900 as 235, 1000 as 335 Basically trying to make numbers a bit more meaningful Presumably mobs and such will be scaled as well -- functionally should not change, just how it’s displayed New model changes incoming for several character races - Orcs and Trolls were demoed to choose between a hunched or upright character). Mostly focused on original races, plus blood elf and draenei. Goblins and Worgen will get makeovers later.

Lots of dungeons and dungeon quests. Could get 2-3 levels in a run Rested XP was a waste because you blow right through it. Problem - Maraudon puts you in the dungeon, but no quests for two more levels. So, either quest or repeat dungeons. Problem with that is now you’re moving further and further away from Stormwind (Stranglethorn or Plaguelands) Had to run to Wetlands between dungeon runs. Waste of time. Not sure what else to do. Toy is 10k gold, and only gives faction flight points, not neutral.

Ren: Started on Argus campaign with rogue (as predicted) Still playing Diablo 3 but having some repetitive motion injury issues with right hand Ditched Bagnon for ArkInventory Pleased with TV appearance on THE DEAD FILES - and cancelled Sling (HDTV antenna works great - between that and Amazon Prime’s Thursday Night Football, Giants season is saved!) Caught 3rd eagle this week Mike: Argus! Wait, it’s only one chapter? Can’t do the dungeon yet What’s this cloth? Spoilers! Chests everywhere Couldn’t get enough items for the i880 gear (not that I need it) Mobs aren’t that hard to kill. What’s with the eye quest? 20% more damage in/out? Some guy’s been buying my stuff on the AH and not making a profit Uldaman Tomb of Sargeras w/Ali This Week in Wow One word: Argus Next week: Mac’Aree zone opens, unlock Invasion Points, and a questline to open Greater Invasion Points that can drop 930 gear. For those who aren’t into Argus, it’s Cataclysm Timewalking. The Archaeology reward for next 2 weeks is a toy called the Crystalline Eye of Undravius, which lets you look around and see invisible NPCs as demons or changes existing NPCs into demons for 15 seconds (apparently Khadgar is a succubus). If you’re a toy collector or are after your 8 archaeology quests for a new artifact tint, go for it. Collecting 300 toys will get you a mount, the Mechanized Lumber Extractor. 7.3 News Nightfallen reputation requirements removed from several Suramar quests, making it possible to complete the Suramar campaign without reputation gates. Undocumented changes Artifact catch-up for alts: Artifact Knowledge now starts at 41 regardless of book Removes Class Hall Campaign for third relic slot Removes Broken Shore campaign to unlock Empowered Traits Higher drop rate for artifact appearances, and you can get them for artifacts you own that you aren’t currently using (off spec) I880 Relinquished Gear no longer available to purchase with Nethershards. Completing opening Broken Shore scenario on one character is required to unlock Argus Reduced requirements for Breaching the Tomb - example, you only need 50 Mark of Sentinax instead of 100 Timewalking dungeon loot starts at 880, and Black Temple timewalking loot starts at 930. Lots of Tomb of Sargeras changes - mostly nerfs Nomi Work Orders can now yield Broken Islands Recipe Scrap (drop rate lower than Nomi Snacks). 10 scraps = one undiscovered recipe Fishing Round the Isles achievement now requires 20 world fishing quests, not all of them Levitating players can now jump Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning updated animations were not implemented. Apparently they got bad reviews on the PTR. Two new class hall follower catch-up items added to Warmage Kathleen at Deliverance Point: Grimoire of Lost Knowledge (adds 6000 XP to follower for 2500 nethershards) and Relinquished Armor Set (sets champion iLevel to 880 for 400 nethershards) New missions for followers may be related to a new side quest, available to players after completing the An Offering of Light main quest series. These side quests unlock a new type of troop or missions that offer new follower equipment Helpful toy: Sightless Eye (not to be confused with the Sightless Eye currency) - makes you much less detectable to mobs on Argus or Broken Shore for 10 minutes, with a 5 minute cooldown. Any damage, including falling damage, breaks this. (Or just make a rogue) Diablification #1: Antaen Light-Bringer in the first part of Argus -- after the first few quests, you join Kil’jaeden and Prophet Velen to destroy a siege weapon that looks like a large green portal of some type Spoiler: it pops up and it’s a big mob Ren: Recognized this IMMEDIATELY because it looks almost exactly like a mob called the Realmwalker in the Battlefields of Eternity level in Act IV of D3, who is a giant mob who hides in the ground with a big portal eye on his head. Knew what was going to happen
