Pre-Patch Problems
Remember when Legion: Remix ended early? Bet you don't because Patch 12.0 broke so many other things right after!...
Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kurabara are back to talk about the state of the World of Warcraft! First, Rei updates us on how things are going in Minnesota. Then, the gang starts talking about how buttons are missing from all specs. Rei got her charter neighborhood open, but Nick wants neighborhoods to be more social. Rei talks about an add-on to track endeavor participation. Nick and Rei discuss some of the delve achievements.
Next, they discuss the State of Azeroth video featuring Holly and Ion. Nick comments that all the road maps hint at big announcements at Blizzcon. He then complains about how Ion introduced the housing cinematic, even though it was a nice cinematic.
Eric talks about how raiding has been trivialized in the pre-patch. He and Rei are working on some secret achievements. He and Nick discuss the devourer demon hunter meta. As an aside, Nick praises the comments on WoWhead.
Kurabara talks about being excited for Prop Hunt coming in patch 12.0.5. He is working on getting his alts to 80 and decorating his Horde house.
Finally, they take a quick look back at the announcement of Dragonflight.

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 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
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
Blizzard gave us lots of maps with paths to put our feet on. Or someone's feet on. At least as far as Blizzcon.
