Raiding, Tanking, and Brann Still Sucks

Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kura are back to talk about what is going on in World of Warcraft. First, Rei tlaks about how people are struggling to find time to play, and people are not showing up as often as they should. She and Kura talk about how keys feel different this season with the new abandon voting mechanic. They also talk about how it is hard to find people to run +2 keys. Rei and Kura talk about learning to tank in the raid.

Eric talks about getting Normal Manaforge Omega on farm. He mentions that they are always carrying someone and appreciates that their guild dps is competitive about the meters. He also complains about Brann pulling mobs in Delves. Kurabara talks about the bee quest in Karesh. He also talks about crafting and how he found a stray island in Karesh with two portals and no mobs. In the news, Blizzard has put a pet on the store that can be obtained by buying $75 of merchandise. Finally, Nick takes a look back 100 episodes at episode 199.
