The State of Evokers and Hunters (feat. Crisp)

This week Rei and Eric are off so joining Nick and Kura we have the returning Crisp! They start by talking about how Kura can’t raid without Rei and Eric so he’s just leveling alts with some other guildies. He talks about the struggles of switching to a Pandaren rogue and trying to glide. He also talks about how a boss knocked him into a space where he was able to cheese the rest of the fight.

Next, Crisp shares what he’s been up to. He talks about playing as an Augmentation Evoker and compares notes with Kura. He mentions how quickly he was able to get his Naszuro legendary. He also talks about how with his guild struggling on Mythic Sarkareth, he’s mostly been running Heroic Aberrus and getting the majority of his experience there. Then, he talks about the state of hunter dps which is one of the reasons he’s been playing his Evoker. He and Nick disagree about how badly the class needs a revamp, for divergent reasons.

Next, Nick talks a little about how he’s actually making progress on the Trading Post ahead of time, and continues to lament that post is keeping more active than he would like to be.

In the news, they talk about the announcement that patch 10.1.7 is coming on September 5th. Nick talks about the inclusion of Forsaken Heritage armor, with a caution that on the PTR, players who use the Gear Update on a character have not been eligible for the Heritage Armor quests because it is erroneously registering as a boost. Nick talks about using the Gear Update on his Forsaken Rogue and being perturbed by the changes to his bags, and he is concerned that he will not be able to get the heritage armor when it becomes available in a few weeks.

Also in the news, they mention that a Paladin went rogue during a mythic keystone run, and held the dungeon hostage for gold by threatening to leave and ruining the key.

Finally, they take a quick look back at episode #144 which was full of hype for what they didn’t know was the last Blizzcon thus far.
