We start off the episode hearing from the community with a couple new voicemails. We love hearing from the community, and it sparks some great conversation! This week we talk about epic moments where we fall on the Thadius jump, adulting and gaming with minimal time, and some follow-up thoughts on tokens and how they might change.

We move on to talk about loot systems, BIS items for different classes, and our experiences with and ideas on how to manage loot council. Next, we move into a discussion on alts, changing your class midway through an expansion, and what the speed running community has been up to! We then have a discussion on which class has been the strongest so far, who we think will win out for the phase, and which class is the hardest to play well. For dps is it a combat rogue, a feral druid, or melee weaving as a hunter? Holy vs discipline priest?

We wrap up the segment with a discussion about Mel newbie tanking and effectively or ineffectively setting up your key binds while leveling. What are the benefits of knowing the basics of every role? In the news we discuss Sarthe ruining the meta gem weaving meta, the day of the dead event, the festering emerald drake mount, and transferring season of mastery characters.

We wrap up the episode discussing DPS rankings as of week 4, our thoughts, any surprises, and what we think the future will bring. We discuss the parsing meta and what it means for healers.
