Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeah!
Blizzard gave us lots of maps with paths to put our feet on. Or someone's feet on. At least as far as Blizzcon....
Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kura are back this week to talk about what has been going on in World of Warcaft. First, Rei talks about how things are still going in Minnesota. Then she talks about how the recent talent changes did not affect her. Next, she brings up a pug raid that went terrible. She also talks about getting a hacked message in Battle.Net, and some of the mounts she has earned lately.
Eric talks about how they were able to defeat the entire Manaforge: Omega raid with only one tank. He and Rei also got the Incognitro secret mount. He and Nick get into a discussion of bank management, which leads to the conclusion that you should always sell everything.
Kura talks about how he has been practicing his tanking and how he is waiting on getting his CE. He and Nick talk about the state of Hearthstone.
The gang takes a quick look back at the War Within to decide where it ranks amongst the other expansions.
In the news, Blizzard has released two more animated cinematics leading to Midnight: one for Liadrin and one for Arator. Also, Blizzard is teaming with Zillow to promote player housing. And Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond have left Microsoft, leading to concern about the state of XBox and games under Microsoft going forward.

Host of WoW! Talk! and The Tauren & The Goblin. Sometimes known as the Video Games Public Defender. Wants to play more Destiny and Marvel Heroes but WoW is all-consuming. Decent F2P Hearthstone player. Sad that he lost the Wii that had Wrecking Crew on it. Would be happy if the only game ever made was M.U.L.E. Gragtharr on Skywall-US. Garresque on Ravencrest-US.
Rei Liou
Rei is the 1 of the 5 SEELE members and the Ops Director at MTB. She enjoys anime, baking, cooking, gaming ( fighting, puzzle, rhythm, RPGs ), and spending WAY too much time working on spreadsheets. Current Games: Tales of Crestoria, WoW
Eric Knutson
Auto mechanic, car enthusiast, gamer, runner and almost never serious, Eric has been ditching responsibilities and gaming since age 7. His favorite genres are FPS and racing, although most of his game time is currently spent on WoW
