Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kurabara are back to talk about what’s been going on in World of Warcraft lately.

First, Rei talks about bringing an underleveled character through some mythic dungeons and struggling with the carry. This leads to a discussion about people who buy carries or even buy whole accounts for the achievements and mounts they may have on the account. They also talk about how sometimes when tanks or healers swap to DPS for a raid, there can be problems as players struggle in unusual roles. She also mentions that she hasn’t played as much as usual lately because she’s been busy with real life. They also talk about how there are rumors that the pre-patch will release on 7/23.

Next, Eric talks about how the guild finally killed Heroic Raszageth, but he also talks about how all he really did was log in for raid because he’s been busy in real life.

Kurabara talks about how he got pretty much everything he’s wanted in MoP Remix because with so many characters at level 70 he’s earned a ton of bronze. He also talks about getting Fyr’alath on his death knight only to learn just how time consuming the quest to fully unlock the axe is, even after waiting for it to drop. He also mentions how a random healer helped him stay alive during part of the quest.

In the news, we got a first look at The War Within’s login screen. Also, World of Warcraft if returning to China thanks to NetEase on 8/1. The Guild Realm Transfer and Guild Faction Transfer services are ending on 7/22. Blizzard has posted more short stories in advance of The War Within. And the beta may have revealed next month’s Trading Post. Also, Season of Discovery Phase 4 is coming 7/11. Plus, there is a World of Warcraft crossover in Diablo Immortal.

Finally, we take a look back at Episode #168 which was the Patch 9.0 quiz.
