Nick, Rei, and Harv are back and boy do they have a lot to talk about! Since they last recorded, Microsoft bought Activision Blizzard, Cross Factoin raiding was announced, and the New York Times bought Wordle! But first, Rei talks about what’s been going on with Order of Corrupted Souls.

Rei talked about working on Fatescribe with different groups. She also talked about watching raid log videos with a friend and trying to understand what was wrong. She also talked about how one of the tanks she was playing with was not joining the group discord, meaning they were not in communication, and that went about as badly as expected. She also talked about pugging with someone with a New York accent.

Harv, meanwhile, has played some Diablo III and not much else.

Nick talks about bringing his five year old through Firelands and getting the Harvester’s Dredwing when Harv was not online. He also talks about the Wen Lo mount and how marvelous it is.

In the news, Harv and Rei finally get the opportunity to weigh in on the Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard. They talk about their guarded optimism and how time will tell if this was a positive change. Nick also brings up the changes to Tier Set Tokens, as well as the Double Legendary Acquisition in Patch 9.2. Flying in Zereth Mortis will be easier to get, and Blizzard has outlawed mass advertising in the chat channels.

Nick also reviews what has been going on with Raven QA and their unionization attempts.

For the question of the week, Nick is soliciting advice on the quickest way to grind anima.

Finally, they look back at episode #104, which was the 2018 April Fool’s episode.

Chris has been playing World of Warcraft since 2007. When he's not playing his hunter in Azeroth, he's probably playing one of his many alt hunters. If not doing that, he's probably playing a different hunter.
