Raid Participation, April Fools, and Plunder! Die! Repeat!

Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kura are back this week to talk about what’s going on in World of Warcraft and Plunderstorm! Rei begins by talking about tanking high keys in Mythic Dungeons and her struggles there. She also talks about trying to help people only to have people disregard her advice, which leads to a discussion about people needing to be present in raids and honest with themselves about how they are approaching the game, so they can discuss that with their guildmates adequately.

Eric talks about how he is ready to move onto season 4 with the Awakened Raids that will be coming on April 23rd. The gang talks about how players are disappointed with the raids but Nick thinks they were well received last expansion and should work this expansion. They also talk about how Blizzard could introduce other raids or dungeons in these end of expansion seasons.

Kura talks about April Fools and wanting World of Warcraft pancakes. This leads to a discussion about how April Fool’s was received for Warcraft this year. He also talks about his struggles with his DK’s performance and how he is not used to having to dodge in melee range. He also mentions that he is missing some quests for the Tuskarr.

Nick completed the Plunderstorm grind and shares his final Plunderstorm thoughts. He talks about some of his frustrations and theorizes that the rewards were there to keep a base of players for the PVP players to defeat. He also talks about Holly’s announcement that there is some special PVE content coming.

John Hight did an interview with IGN where he talked about being interested in more Warcraft movies but not wanting to be a filmmaker. He also talks about not using generative AI to make content.

Looking back one hundred episodes, Nick talks about the announcement of the first release date for Shadowlands as revealed in July of 2020.
