1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,040 It is no longer. You walk down the street and you 2 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,360 say, oh, I play World of Warcraft and five people turn 3 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:06,440 their head. You play World of Warcraft like 4 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,400 Victory for the Forsaken. For Lauderon. 5 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,720 For the Kieran Tour. For. 6 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,600 Pandaria. For. 7 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:24,760 Calendar to the burning region, for Gilneus but has not died, 8 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:34,560 for the Lich King, for the Sindora, for the Alliance, for 9 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:39,480 the Horn for Azeroth. Hello everyone, it is a rainy 10 00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:42,480 day in Toronto and it is a great day. 11 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,520 Play some World of Warcraft. But I have dragged away my 2 Co 12 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,680 hosts away from their levelling, away from their gearing up, away 13 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,840 from their, I don't know, pet collecting, Who knows to play a 14 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,560 little bit of World of Warcraft. And so joining us from the 15 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,760 amazing Arctic circles of Alaska, we have Lexer ants. 16 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,239 Hello Lex, and how is the World of Warcraft treating you this 17 00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:06,960 week? It is treating me very well. 18 00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:09,720 I am having the absolute time of my life. 19 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,840 Midnight is. It might be that it's early, but 20 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,800 currently Midnight is feeling like a solo player's paradise. 21 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,880 I'm having so much fun. This is the first time in a long 22 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,920 time that I've really felt motivated to log on just to 23 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,880 play, like just to go and like do a couple delves and like, 24 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,680 turn on my to pray, do some world quest, get some gear, have 25 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,080 a good time. I am loving it. 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,960 I'm having such a good time. I am absolutely thriving. 27 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,400 Awesome, awesome. And of course we go to Sean who 28 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,680 is looking to get 6 monitors for six different alts. 29 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,160 Hello Sean, how are you and how is the World of Warcraft 30 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,120 treating you? I'm doing good. 31 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,800 A years ago, I saw a movie called Swordfish starring Hugh 32 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,280 Jackman and John Travolta. And in that, Hackman plays a a 33 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,200 hacker. And in that, there's a scene 34 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,800 where he's like standing at a computer and he's typing 35 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,600 furiously and he's smiling. And it's like this montage and 36 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,320 there's six monitors in front of him. 37 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,680 And my whole life I've been chasing that moment. 38 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,280 Warcraft treated me good. What a fun fact about the 39 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,280 Arctic. I'm going to tell you what 40 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,480 anyway, So just say yes. The Arctic was named by Norse 41 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,520 adventurers, and it means bears. It means there are bears here. 42 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,000 The Antarctic means no bears. Now, here's the fun fact. 43 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,080 When they named this, no one had ever been to the Antarctic. 44 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,920 So they just guessed that if there was an Arctic, there must 45 00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:34,800 be an opposite. And those bastards were right. 46 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,120 They were right, and there's no bears there. 47 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,720 Yeah, they accidentally named them appropriately. 48 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,680 Man, I love the Vikings. Anyway. 49 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:44,960 That's my fun. Fact. 50 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,640 It is awesome. It is still awesome. 51 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,520 Yeah, I think that's a great fact. 52 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,920 Warcraft has been treating me good. 53 00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:56,320 I I'm holding steady at 4 characters leveled, 4 world 54 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,920 tours of M0, four sets of renowned gear, four times 55 00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:04,760 everything that's going to fall off when the season starts. 56 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:06,840 For sure because of a lack of monitors. 57 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,720 Is it? Yeah, yeah, I need more 58 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,240 monitors. If you're not already subscribed 59 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,960 to the four Ezraoth Patreon, I need you to subscribe. 60 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:20,560 I need to get another monitor. I need an Asus ZX70, I think is 61 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,120 the next one I need. I made that number up. 62 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,320 I don't know if that's a real monitor, but yeah, no, it's it's 63 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,760 just a time thing. When Mythic Plus opens up on the 64 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,520 24th, there will be it'll be spamming Mythic Plus on my main, 65 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,440 which means there will be very little time for any of the 66 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,240 others. So I'll try and keep them sort 67 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,960 of relevant, probably through Heroic delves and the more 68 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,280 likely the Prey system because I am absolutely head over heels in 69 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,760 love with Astolore, Bloodsworn and the Prey system. 70 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,880 I actually went and looked up the voice actor on Cameo to see 71 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,800 if I could get him to say that I Sean, you've done a good job 72 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,600 with. All the disdain. 73 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,000 That doesn't sound like Astelore. 74 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,080 Astelore would never tell you you've got a. 75 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,800 And he used to be on Cameo, but he's no longer on Cameo. 76 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,520 So then I went and found him on Blue Sky and followed him there. 77 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,040 And then at that point I was like, OK, you know what? 78 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,079 This might be crossing the line. I probably shouldn't stalk this 79 00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:22,640 man anyway. I'm going to invite him on the 80 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,360 show. OK. 81 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:31,120 And then chat gave me that idea they're OK, just invite him on 82 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,560 for an interview. That's not creepy like, well, it 83 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,800 is if he finds out how we got here. 84 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,080 We'll, we'll delete this part from the the show or you know, 85 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,360 like that, like you don't never listen to this. 86 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,440 It'll be OK. Or maybe he does listen if you 87 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,160 are listening. First off, amazing job. 88 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,920 You have made me very excited for a game mode that I thought 89 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,720 would be abandoned very quickly in my midnight seasonal 90 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,600 rotation. And secondly, thank you. 91 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,360 You're, you're an amazing voice. He's also the voice of Prince 92 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,720 Renathal, which I thought was neat, which a lot of people are 93 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,280 using to connect Astelore to Kaelthos in the Shadow Lands 94 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,520 because Anguish is so close to Anima and maybe there's some tie 95 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:22,840 there. And I think that would also be 96 00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:25,880 fun because I'm a big Chaos fan. Anyway. 97 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:31,680 Warcraft's been good, yeah. I don't have an astral or shrine 98 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,800 built in my office yet. Yet OK. 99 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,480 I think it's good when our video rooms teach us things about 100 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,960 ourselves, and I'm glad you're able to learn something exciting 101 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,280 about yourself, Sean. Thanks, Lex. 102 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,440 Yeah, me too. Perfect. 103 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:48,560 I'll do. OK, so this is of course we've 104 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:54,080 got past the first official reset of of midnight. 105 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:59,400 We still have one more week of the Mythic 0 world tours, one 106 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:05,040 more week of normal and hard prey, and one more week of Dells 107 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,360 being capped at 7:00. But there is a lot coming 108 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:13,240 because one of the big things that is coming, of course is 109 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,320 season 1. But this week hasn't been 110 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,480 without anything. There has been a lot of stories 111 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,960 that have come out, including an absolute deluge of things on the 112 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,280 Blizzard store. So this has been a set of 113 00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:32,240 mounts, 4 different mounts that you can get for a tiny little 114 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,200 sum that came in a bundle or you can buy them individually. 115 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,960 Not not the first time that we've had something like that. 116 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:45,720 But this was overshadowed by, of course, the big Hearthsteel 117 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,480 Blitz that they did. So if you thought the 118 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,000 Hearthsteel store didn't have many options, well, they decided 119 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,720 to update that and give us a lot of things. 120 00:06:56,840 --> 00:07:01,720 One of those was of course, a big source of controversy. 121 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:08,360 They had this nice little spring blossom tree which they had as 122 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,840 part of the Spring Blossom Decor Pack or you could buy it by 123 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,360 itself. The tree alone originally cost 124 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:24,960 750 half steel. Of course, based on different 125 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,400 currencies that that means different things. 126 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:38,240 It also came in part of a pack for 2500 or 2500, and that had a 127 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,600 number of different things and had one of the trees in. 128 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,200 People were saying that this was way too much for a piece of 129 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,360 Decor to be at that at that price point. 130 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:54,200 They were also saying that if somebody wants to actually use 131 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,960 this sort of thing, they're not going to just buy one. 132 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,560 You're not going to have one tree. 133 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,000 I mean, based on what you set up, maybe you can make it work 134 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,400 with one tree, but most people would be putting multiple 135 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,080 multiples in. And so of course, people quickly 136 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:13,160 ran and grabbed their pitchforks and took to the forms to steal 137 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,000 from a different show. It was a shit show that caused 138 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:25,240 Blizzard to pull both the tree and the decor pack down from the 139 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:30,880 store for a short while. And then they came back and the 140 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:36,880 store was slashed from 7:50 to 2:50 for the tree alone. 141 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:43,280 And the pack, while remaining at the same price, now includes 3 142 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:48,080 times the trees. So increased value there. 143 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,600 But I gotta ask you guys, what do you think of this? 144 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:57,160 Is this, is this the scary dystopian future that your 145 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,800 parents warned you about when her steel was first introduced? 146 00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:03,760 Let's go with you, Lex. What's your your thoughts on 147 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,840 this? I mean, OK to be, I'm not a 148 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,200 collector and I understand that like FOMO and like this urgency 149 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,360 to collect everything can feel very overwhelming. 150 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,560 And I, I don't mean to like, that's not a thing that I I 151 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,880 understand and I don't mean to be dismissive. 152 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,480 Lex, you can only talk for yourself. 153 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,200 Sing your truth, Lex. My truth is, first of all, 154 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,320 unless they also change the price of hard steel, that's like 155 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,080 $10, right? Yeah, like $10.00 for a tree is 156 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,840 silly. But it's a tree, right? 157 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,040 Like, you also don't have to get it. 158 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,800 It's not power in the game, It, you know, And it's also, yeah, 159 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,240 every time I do anything, they throw 10 housing items at me. 160 00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:42,600 So is it stupid? Yeah. 161 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,000 That's a stupid price for a tree, $10.00 for a tree. 162 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,760 Ridiculous. It's. 7:50 it's it's a dollar 163 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,320 for every 100 Hertz steel. OK. 164 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,560 Yeah. So. 750 Basically you're moving 165 00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:55,120 to decimal too when you're doing hard steel conversions at this. 166 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,960 .0 perfect that's very easy then yeah like that that's dumb that 167 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,760 is a dumb amount of money for them to make a treat Is it game 168 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,920 breaking? I don't think so again I I I 169 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,240 listen I'm not a shopper right I don't really buy things on the 170 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,600 shop I don't really look at the shop. 171 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,200 I, you know, get my 6 month subscription mounts and I call 172 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,920 it a day. But I also as long as what they 173 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:23,640 are posting on the shop is not player power, they can post 174 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,200 whatever they want, right? They can post if they want to 175 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:32,120 ask people if they'll spend $20,000 on a housing decor. 176 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,000 I'm I'm not buying it. I don't think anyone should. 177 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,200 I think that's a stupid amount of money to spend on silly 178 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,680 little housing decor. But if you want to more power to 179 00:10:40,680 --> 00:10:44,560 you manage your money, which tends to be my take with 180 00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:47,040 everything on the shop like I just. 181 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,640 It's there and you can leave it so it doesn't bother you. 182 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,560 Right. OK, All right. 183 00:10:52,560 --> 00:10:55,040 Yeah, that that that's pretty close to where I'm at. 184 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,400 John, let's go to you. What's What's your take on this 185 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,160 Hearthstone hoopla? I struggled to muster a single 186 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,120 about Hertz Steel or Decor on the shop. 187 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,440 I really truly do, but I have some points. 188 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,800 That being said, the post that came out when they 'cause they 189 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,760 pulled it off the shop and readjusted it. 190 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,440 The post that came out, it didn't say, hey, we hear you, 191 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,880 that you're upset. This repricing isn't fair. 192 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,640 They said it was an incorrect price. 193 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,760 So the the messaging we got from Kyvax, and I have no reason to 194 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,760 doubt Kyvax, is that it was never meant to go live at 7:50. 195 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,280 It was meant to go live at the price of 250. 196 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,240 It was a mistake. They fixed it. 197 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,200 Now is that the truth or is the truth? 198 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,080 It went live at 7:50 to see if people would be upset about it. 199 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,040 And when they were, they quickly said, hey, that wasn't the real 200 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,280 price. I don't know. 201 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,920 I'm going to, I would like to believe Kyvax because I like, I 202 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,760 don't because I want to believe Kyvax. 203 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,040 I just, I just want to believe him. 204 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,320 So he says it was never meant to be that price. 205 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:04,560 I believe him also because I don't care, but I, I choose to 206 00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:08,880 believe him. And the second note is these 207 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,400 items on the shop don't give housing experience. 208 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,880 So there's no gain. There's like like when Lexus 209 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,880 player power, there is literally 0 to gain from this other than 210 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,800 the item in the shop. And and I, I hear you. 211 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,800 I hear collectors, you know, and I I get it. 212 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,600 I don't understand that collector mentality because I do 213 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:32,760 not have that particular. I'm not going to you don't have 214 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,640 that drive phrase. Yeah, that drive. 215 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:35,880 Thanks. That's way better than what I 216 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,120 was going to say. I, I don't feel that, but if you 217 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,400 are a collector and you're upset because you don't think it's 218 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,840 right that they're charging whatever price for her steal and 219 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,840 this bothers you because you want to collect everything, just 220 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:52,520 whatever part of your brain allows you to accept the stuff 221 00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:54,960 that you can't ever get back in the game again. 222 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,320 Like let's say you're a mount collector. 223 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,720 I'm a mount collector, but I didn't start playing until 224 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,240 Cataclysm. Well, all of those mounts pre 225 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,120 Cataclysm that you can never get and you've accepted that and 226 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,280 you've moved on and are still a collector. 227 00:13:07,560 --> 00:13:10,000 Just put the just put the housing decor in that same 228 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,040 bucket. You know what I mean? 229 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:17,360 Just just say OK, this is just like the wolf from Mr. Pandaria 230 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,120 AOTC that I never got from Siege of Orgrimmar. 231 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,600 I'll just put this in the same bucket mentally and then I don't 232 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,040 have to be so upset all the time. 233 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,680 Literally on the brink of World War three and people are losing 234 00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:34,920 their minds over a / a a fake tree man. 235 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,520 Anyway, that's that's where I'm at. 236 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,600 I honestly don't care, I'm tired. 237 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,440 I'm actually tired of talking about it. 238 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,240 If you don't like the prices on the shop, don't buy stuff off 239 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,840 the shop. So you've had multiple 240 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,360 conversations. Sorry. 241 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,640 When you say you're tired of talking about, though, are you 242 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,640 talking about just generally you're tired of talking about 243 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,960 the shop and when people get angry at the shop or about this 244 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,000 particular thing? The shop as a whole, the shop as 245 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,680 because the next big thing was the $50 squirrels. 246 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,520 But nobody was mad at the $50 squirrels. 247 00:14:04,560 --> 00:14:06,600 Which is great because they're. Because they're. 248 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,760 Yeah, because they're too busy being mad at this tree. 249 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,120 It's like, man, just don't buy it. 250 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:13,240 I don't. I don't get it. 251 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,480 And right, I I, I, I guarantee you, there's a collector 252 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,080 listening to this right now. Like, you don't understand. 253 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,880 I had everything. Like you don't. 254 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:22,600 And that they probably don't sound like that. 255 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,400 I imagine most of the people who listen to this show don't sound 256 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:25,560 like that. But I had to do some 257 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,280 differentiations. You knew it wasn't my voice. 258 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,920 And it was there, boy. Anyway, just don't buy it and 259 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,200 put it in whatever bucket mentally you've put in all of 260 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,480 those. But you know, wherever you have 261 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,360 spectral tigers sat in your brain as being OK that you don't 262 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,360 own, put this tree there and move on. 263 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,920 There's so many great things at midnight to collect. 264 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,160 Go collect them. You got to be doing your 265 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,000 abundance runs anyway. You need like a million of 266 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:51,520 those. Oh dear. 267 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,200 God. They can't be sending you tweets 268 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,560 anyway. So no, I don't care about the 269 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:58,960 tree and I don't care what Blizzard does. 270 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,760 They can charge what they want. I'm never going to buy anything 271 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,120 decor wise. I'm never going to buy hers. 272 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,240 Deal it. It doesn't affect me at all. 273 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,640 Yeah. One thing that I think about a 274 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,720 lot, and I don't really understand the like business 275 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,320 side of this, but I, it, it makes a lot of sense when people 276 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,000 have explained it to me is that game development has gotten 277 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,040 significantly more expensive over time and World of Warcraft 278 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,720 overall is not growing significantly in players, right? 279 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:29,240 It's like I, I, I don't know the exact numbers, but it is not 280 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,200 wrath, right? It is no longer you walk down 281 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,640 the street and you say, oh, I play World of Warcraft and five 282 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,280 people turn their heads. You play World of Warcraft like 283 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:41,480 we're not in those days when you can just expect, like there's so 284 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,000 many people joining their printing on. 285 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,120 Me. Where do you live that at any 286 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,520 point in history that happened? I had somebody like honk at me 287 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:50,840 on the street and I was like, what's going on? 288 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,240 And they saw my horn shirt And they're like, yeah. 289 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,840 Really. It's crazy to me. 290 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,720 I I to be fair, I like, I do still, you know, if you post 291 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,160 online that you play World of Warcraft, you're probably going 292 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,520 to find a few. But so, like, it's not the World 293 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,760 of Warcraft is like dying, right? 294 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,800 I'm not trying to doomer that, right? 295 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,360 I also, you know, I, there's a reason the World of Warcraft is 296 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,800 the Blizzard game that gets overwhelmingly the most 297 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,440 attention. And everyone else at BlizzCon, 298 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,320 you know, gets their patch notes right out. 299 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,320 And it's because, yeah, the subscription model makes a lot 300 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,560 more money than other types, but they also haven't really raised 301 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,760 subscription prices for a while. We all understand, you know, how 302 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,680 inflation is working. We all buy things and spend our 303 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,040 money and have bills. And so they're, they kind of do 304 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,640 have to find some income stream somewhere, right? 305 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,440 I, I can be sympathetic to why I don't like it, but I can be 306 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,480 sympathetic to why so many games turn pay to win because you kind 307 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,080 of have to make money somehow. And games do not make a lot of 308 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,280 money, from what I've heard. Again, I'm not in this world, 309 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,040 but this is what I've heard again and again and again from 310 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,560 many, many people to the point where I believe it now. 311 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,440 So if they want to make that income stream, these silly, 312 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,720 goofy little things, I again, I actually kind of think that's 313 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,640 good. I would rather they do that than 314 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,040 raise my sub prices. So I'm, you know, again, as long 315 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,079 as it's not the type of thing where I like people feel like 316 00:17:08,079 --> 00:17:10,599 they have to. And again, I understand that's 317 00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:12,599 complicated with collectors. I understand that's complicated 318 00:17:12,599 --> 00:17:16,000 when you feel that like FOMO and that urge to collect. 319 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,440 But I actually do kind of think the store with what like as it 320 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:25,599 is now is sort of net positive for everyone. 321 00:17:25,599 --> 00:17:28,200 It keeps all of our prices down. It means the people who want to 322 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,360 like love silly, goofy little amounts or who are super excited 323 00:17:31,360 --> 00:17:33,280 about housing and we're like really sad they didn't get cute 324 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,160 little garden stuff. Like they they can get that 325 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,200 opportunity and Blizzard gets more money. 326 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,520 And again, I you also don't need to explain things to me. 327 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,240 Like most of that's actually going to Phil Spencer. 328 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,240 Like yes, I know, I know, I know, I know. 329 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,360 This is. Not anymore. 330 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,440 See ya the latest Phil Spencer. Oh, is he gone? 331 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,440 I wasn't. Yeah, he's stepped. 332 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,840 He got, he got. I was really hoping I'm gonna do 333 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,680 your impression of what collectors sound like so I'm not 334 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,960 the only reason we lose 50% of our viewers today, but I guess 335 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,680 not. I think they sound like Hi Lex, 336 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,960 I'll buy a lot of things on the shop so that you only have to 337 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,600 pay $15.00 a month. I hope we both have fun doing 338 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,840 what we're doing. That's how they sounded in my 339 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,440 head. Appreciate you. 340 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,240 OK, there you go. I mean, yeah, there's a lot of 341 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,840 things that that you said there, Lex. 342 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,320 That totally makes sense. The big famous story is that the 343 00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:29,400 Sparkle Pony made more money than all of StarCraft 2 and its 344 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,920 expansions. So these these things are 345 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,240 definitely profitable for the company. 346 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,560 Go overhead log into the game right now, head to the crafting 347 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:44,240 district and see how many $90.00 Brutus, sorry $90.00 Brutusaurs 348 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,080 are running around at any given time. 349 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:51,640 The store makes money for sure. There are questions about how 350 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,800 predatory things may be, but obviously a pack of flying 351 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,480 squirrels really doesn't push that needle. 352 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:07,160 The decor is really just I don't think that it is the most 353 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:13,400 harmful of things, but of course there are ways that you can make 354 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,240 it just a little bit more enticing Where they had said, 355 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,280 hey, listen, we're going to have the prices set up so you don't 356 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,240 have any loose half steel that you can buy things in exact 357 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,400 amounts and not have to buy the next bundle higher. 358 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:33,520 And the 750 price point broke that that's a very quick for 359 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,920 them to to break something that they had said. 360 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,680 There is where they are asking for feedback and every single 361 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,840 content creator that was really into housing was just saying 362 00:19:45,360 --> 00:19:47,480 please don't integrate that store into the game just keep it 363 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,040 off to itself. And it's ridiculous how 364 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,880 integrated that store is into the game. 365 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:58,120 So I don't think these bundles are where you need to exactly 366 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,760 point your finger for like what I what you should be angry at. 367 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,400 And I think that people voting with their wallet definitely 368 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:13,880 helps, even if what Kyvex said was not correct. 369 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:21,480 Was maybe just a nice use of incorrect to avoid a particular 370 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,880 framing. I think that it's good that they 371 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,960 took it down and adjusted the price in such a quick manner 372 00:20:29,360 --> 00:20:32,360 that to me. And refunded anybody who bought 373 00:20:32,360 --> 00:20:35,960 it at the full price and added two more trees to anybody who 374 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,440 bought the bundle. Yeah, I don't know. 375 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,360 Yeah, I believe Kyvax. I'm a Kyvax believer. 376 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:49,720 I, I feel like corporate communications are, are a sticky 377 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,720 situation that there are sometimes where when you are a 378 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,400 public facing person, you have to say things based on your 379 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,520 marching orders, not necessarily what you may believe it to be. 380 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:04,760 And I think that, yeah, Kyvax and Kyvax, Randy, all of 381 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,640 everybody who works there, they do a good job trying to speak 382 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,520 with us and get that information out to us. 383 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:17,600 But I don't think the word incorrect holds much weight with 384 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,120 me right now. But I'm not going to put that on 385 00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:23,200 the on the guy who is printing the words. 386 00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:25,800 So we'll move. They say don't kick the 387 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,480 messenger into the giant pit, even if it is Sparta. 388 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,600 Isn't that what they say this is? 389 00:21:31,120 --> 00:21:33,920 Silver Moon kicks into Sun. Well, yeah. 390 00:21:35,120 --> 00:21:42,760 OK, Well moving on from that, we also got a bit of tuning this 391 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,920 week. This is of course non class 392 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,800 tuning because that's all being held for heroic week. 393 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,920 But we got some changes to dungeons. 394 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:57,040 We got a roller coaster of a ride for the personal key to the 395 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,200 R Cantina. Sean, do you want to tell us 396 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,280 what in the world's been going on with this little item? 397 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,600 Yeah, so the R Cantina, once you've unlocked it and you 398 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:10,320 unlock it by doing quests and hanging out with the the Sons of 399 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:15,040 Lothar, it's this it was it started out as a key that was on 400 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,520 a 1.5 minute cooldown and would teleport you to the Argentina, 401 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,960 this magical Tavern that exists in the ether. 402 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,800 And then upon exiting, there's a portal in the Argentina. 403 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,960 Upon exiting that portal, it would take you directly to 404 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,600 Silver Moon because Silver Moon is the capital city of this 405 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,000 expansion. Well what this meant was 406 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:38,640 everybody had a direct town portal, the Silver Moon on a 1.5 407 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:43,840 minute cooldown, which felt some people felt was game breaking. 408 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,720 So because you had this direct port of the Silver Moon now 409 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,480 everybody had the same benefit as mages and you were able to 410 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:55,600 set your Hearthstone to Zolemon, which is the furthest capital of 411 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,960 the four new zones in midnight from Silver Moon. 412 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,520 So you set your heart from Zolemon, use your canteen, the 413 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,280 key to go to Silver Moon, Bob's your uncle, you're everybody's a 414 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,400 mage now because this is what mages have done for decades. 415 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,080 They set their portals that got changed. 416 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,040 Blizzard saw that people were doing that and they're like, oh, 417 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,440 that's not intended. We don't want that. 418 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,640 We're going to change the key so that now it returns you to 419 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,400 wherever you left from. So it would work like I think 420 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,720 it's Zen Meditation is the monk ability that you use and it 421 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,600 takes you to the peak of serenity and then when you use 422 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,080 it again it takes you back to where you were. 423 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,160 Yeah, or the Yakkers Gate that Death Knights use. 424 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,720 Exactly. Yeah, a death death gate for for 425 00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:37,800 for death Knights. Great functionality. 426 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,040 And I think this is probably how the key was initially meant to 427 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,440 be used. But what this meant was that 428 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,920 through the use of the queue system into other follower 429 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,880 dungeons or a heroic dungeon, if you were in a full party, 430 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:54,080 everybody had free dungeon teleports because you could 431 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,280 queue for a follower dungeon. You appear in the dungeon, you 432 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,640 then use your R cantina key. You appear in the R Cantina, you 433 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,200 leave the instance group, so you're no longer part of that 434 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,320 follower dungeon, but your last known location was in the 435 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,160 dungeon. But if you're no longer in the 436 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,360 group, when you return to that location to put you outside of 437 00:24:14,360 --> 00:24:17,920 the dungeon. So for our first world tours 438 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,000 last week, we all poured it to every dungeon. 439 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,640 We queued for a dungeon. We got there, we all poured it 440 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,520 to the Argentina. We all left the instance group. 441 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,560 We all walked over to the Argentina and then walked into 442 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:29,640 the dungeon on mythic difficulty. 443 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,160 I felt this was a great use of the key. 444 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:39,120 I had to move my. Creative use of game, yeah. 445 00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:42,360 I had to move my Hearthstone back to Silver Moon, which meant 446 00:24:42,360 --> 00:24:45,280 I was back to flying to Zulaman, which is not, I mean, it's not a 447 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:46,600 bad flight. It's a it's a beautiful flight 448 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,360 if you take a flight back. Why wouldn't you just like Den 449 00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:53,040 of Nalarac jump to there. Yeah, yeah. 450 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,680 So yeah, I guess I could just do it anyway. 451 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,800 This again got so this was still in a 1.5 minute cooldown. 452 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:05,560 This then Blizzard was like, OK, we don't want that either. 453 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,720 We're going back to it taking you to Silver Moon, but we're 454 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:17,000 going to put it on a 15 minute cooldown, which doesn't really 455 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,200 change. I mean, if you think about from 456 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,800 the first iteration, I don't know anybody who's making trips 457 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,480 back to Silver Moon, you know, like I don't know the name was 458 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,760 like, man, I really got to get back there 3 minutes from now. 459 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,560 Like the 15 minutes is great. So it's still now, it's just 460 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,320 become a second Hearthstone directly to Silver Moon. 461 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,840 So if you're listening, go and set your, if you're not a mage, 462 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,920 go and set your Hearthstone to the innkeeper in Zulaman, 463 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,560 Rosulgara. Zulgara is because that is the 464 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,880 furthest you would ever have to fly because there's portals to 465 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,920 Void Storm and Herinder. So set your Hearthstone there. 466 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,520 Use your IKT and the key to go to Silver Moon and now you're 467 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,040 set up for the rest of the tier I. 468 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,560 I will be shocked if we don't see more iteration on this 469 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,720 because it still doesn't feel like this is what they want or 470 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,680 intend. I I don't know though, because 471 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:13,840 you always had your Dalaran Hearthstone in Legion and this 472 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,560 is now a Dalaran Hearthstone. Good point. 473 00:26:18,120 --> 00:26:20,640 I you know what? You've just you've literally 474 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,640 just changed my mind. Yeah, it's going to lock in 475 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,200 here. Can I ask a question? 476 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,400 OK. Other than mages get mad because 477 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:34,520 they have one fewer use, what's the harm in letting us all fast 478 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,960 travel to dungeons and you? Know I am so glad you asked Lex, 479 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,080 because there is an unspoken victim in this entire story and 480 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,680 I cannot remain quiet. My conscience will not allow me 481 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:51,920 to remain quiet. This absolutely wrecks shamans 482 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:57,800 of all specs, all hero talents from both factions, both the 483 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:04,080 horde and those other guys. We have an ability which is a 484 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,880 second hearth that is on a 30 minute cooldown. 485 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,440 So we always have two hearts, but you can't set set them 486 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,680 independently. This is so much better than 487 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,680 that. And nobody thinks of the poor 488 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,800 shaman. They're like, hey, just go cry. 489 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,280 Nobody will see it out of your your reign or you're dousing 490 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:25,160 whatever anyways. And it's just, it is cruel. 491 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,600 But I'm glad that like, they, they, they thought of us and 492 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,880 they did something. I thought for sure you were 493 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,440 going to say warlocks because you don't need a summoning stone 494 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:34,920 if you can teleport to the dungeons. 495 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,160 Which is also my second my second character. 496 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,000 So I'm just getting screwed. Left, right, center is what's. 497 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,720 Happening No, I'm with you Lex. This I don't know who it 498 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:44,960 affects. I honestly haven't. 499 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,240 I literally have no humans are humans already have two 500 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,760 hearthstones, but like like or like shamans, they can't set 501 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,520 them independently. So it's just two trips every 7 502 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,160 1/2 minutes. I can go, I can use my 503 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,960 Hearthstone. I don't know who's doing that. 504 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,040 Who's out here using the Hearthstone every 7 1/2? 505 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,120 It's like when this key was a minute and a half. 506 00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:03,640 Who's out here every minute and a half going, you know what I 507 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,960 got to go back to the Arcantina. I got to go back right now, but 508 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,600 they did do a good thing. So because because the Arcantina 509 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,440 sends you to you use the key, you pick up a quest, you go to a 510 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,120 zone, you do the quest, and people were like, well, hey, if 511 00:28:16,120 --> 00:28:21,480 this reset is now 15 minutes, am I just stuck in Outland for 15 512 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,240 minutes? Will I pick up these axes? 513 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,760 Because you want to give the weirdest gift ever to Kurdran. 514 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,240 And the answer is no. When you complete the quest, it 515 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,920 resets the cooldown on your key for you. 516 00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:33,600 So you don't have to. You don't have to stress that 517 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,760 we're getting stuck out there in Hellfire Peninsula. 518 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,160 When users intended, they allow you to get back. 519 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,000 Yeah, yeah. I don't know. 520 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,480 It's just super weird, man. I don't know, like the first, 521 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,440 the first way it was working, I was like, OK, cool, whatever. 522 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,400 It's a minute and a half. It's a it's basically a portal 523 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,120 to to the silver moon. And then when they changed it, I 524 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,720 actually think the new the second way was the best use of 525 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,120 it because you not just because of the dungeon teleport, but 526 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,080 that would have shaved 7 1/2 minutes off of our second M zero 527 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,080 runs on Sunday that we had to fly to the dungeons. 528 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,840 Do like suckers. I'm I'm just. 529 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,760 Saying who this this feels to me like the fact that like American 530 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,800 taxes have to be complicated because TurboTax lobbies so 531 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,760 heavily, but at least TurboTax is making money. 532 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,240 Like why are the mages lobbying so heavily for me not to be able 533 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,760 to teleport to whatever city I want to teleport to man, if 534 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,200 anything, it frees you up. You I know I'm sorry, I'm sorry 535 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,480 the warlocks have a harder time finding groups because they're 536 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,480 no longer like required for raid. 537 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,840 But wouldn't it be so nice if we could just like fast travel like 538 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,440 every other video game, and then you have video games, you can 539 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:43,640 click somewhere and you're there. 540 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,560 I, I hate to tell you, Lex, the dev, the developers are all 541 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,920 bought out by the mages, right? The Mages Association. 542 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:56,360 Big mage, big big big big big big teleport lobbying the devs. 543 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,520 Hey listen, I can't charge for teleports. 544 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,440 The Silverman if you're just giving them away for free. 545 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,040 And they give them a little bit of kickback. 546 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:04,880 That's right. There you go. 547 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,480 Tell the devs, get their horse deal. 548 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,280 But Oh my God. For legal reasons, that's a 549 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:17,400 joke. Anyways, there were other 550 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,520 changes as well. We got changes to the dungeons 551 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,560 that Sean was trying to teleport around to. 552 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:29,080 Big one that is good for you Lex Follower dungeons were horrible 553 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,920 and so they have made changes to follower dungeons. 554 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,760 Both the companions deal more damage in general, 10% more 555 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,960 damage in general. But when you're when they're up 556 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,720 against the trash that they pull everything, they're now dealing 557 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,640 25 to 30% more damage to to that trash. 558 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,160 So they're just did they? Did they also have a hot fix 559 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,880 where they're not stupid? No, they're still stupid. 560 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,680 They're still, they're like changing the AI is not something 561 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,520 they're gonna hot fix. That might be something that we 562 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:01,440 you see later on down the way, but they seem Dumber than they 563 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,120 were in Dragonflight. Like I didn't do any follower 564 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:10,360 engines and the war Within but like I don't know some of those 565 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:15,400 like DPS and sniffing something. I want to find person who coded 566 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,360 them to run away if they have agro of something like flee as 567 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,240 far away from you as possible and I just want to ask them why. 568 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,880 Like because if we're teaching people to tank and just make 569 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,880 them serious, still teach. People to tank? 570 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,720 Are you kidding? The amount of people who don't 571 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,480 know to run to the tank like just go like. 572 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,600 Yes, and if I'm learning to tank, I just want them like I 573 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,280 it's already hard enough man. I'm already just bad and I'm 574 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,080 dropping aggro even when I'm playing with actual human beings 575 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,200 just because stand still, that's all you have aggro. 576 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,600 You don't move, you don't move your little feet. 577 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,040 I'm not saying come to me, I'm not saying enough to run that. 578 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,960 I'm just saying don't run in the opposite direction When I just 579 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,840 cast I-beam and I can't move with I-beam and now I have 580 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,640 nothing to pull them off you. Just like in real life, if 581 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,680 you're in danger, just stand still and hope for something to 582 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,520 save you. That's what I. 583 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:13,400 Do I mean yes in real life, but in in the game, go to the tank. 584 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,320 Go to the tank. Standing still is better than 585 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,120 running away. If you don't move to the tank. 586 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,240 Standing still is better than running away. 587 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,320 They Lexus, they don't just run away, they run into more mobs. 588 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:25,840 They're like, Oh my God, I'm a danger. 589 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:30,800 Surely this vile axe hex spear thrower will save me. 590 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,760 This one must be on my side. He's like Austin Huntsworth he's 591 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,800 looking for. His friends over there, guys 592 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,240 come get. Your friend, I found him. 593 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,040 I found him for you. Yeah. 594 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,560 It's OK, because if they die, Krenn is not going to res them 595 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,840 anyway. So the trick is just let them 596 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:53,200 die and then solo the dungeon. Except Mary. 597 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,000 Listen, Mary Huntswell. Anytime I talk about the 598 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,000 followers. Mary, if you're listening, you 599 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,000 were the exception every time I zone indulgent right away mage 600 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,440 biscuits. I don't even have to ask for 601 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,520 them. You just drop them. 602 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:08,120 You hop away less you're you're a treat. 603 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,240 You are a treat. Austin Huxworth can get launched 604 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,280 into the sun and I continue to report Corona. 605 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,240 Corona for. Griefing OK that would be 606 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,640 hilarious if they do get like a bunch of reports on the on the 607 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:28,280 AI for griefing OK well in general dungeon news we also 608 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,440 have a couple of changes to just mechanics and such that were 609 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:36,720 happening at mythic difficulty. The big one that caught me 610 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,720 unawares is in Matcher's Terrace. 611 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,480 The boss that like divides it into like 4 pieces only divides 612 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,760 it into and I was like is this glitch that's staying away from 613 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,880 where I thought the dividing line should be just because I 614 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:50,840 was like maybe it's not showing up and I'm gonna. 615 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,560 Get. Myself killed, but that that's a 616 00:33:54,560 --> 00:34:00,160 lot different Sean at this point you being well, we haven't had 617 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,960 the chance for you to prune. So you being doing your 40 618 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:07,240 different characters and so you've had the most experience 619 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,120 with the the mythic plus. Run us through this or sorry, 620 00:34:10,159 --> 00:34:14,199 not mythic plus mythic 0. The changes, so that change that 621 00:34:14,199 --> 00:34:18,159 changes I guarantee is almost explicitly because if somebody 622 00:34:18,159 --> 00:34:21,760 dies, if it's broken into four and somebody dies, it's 623 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,760 basically a wipe because there's no way for anybody to cover that 624 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,480 missed spot. So that's why I suspect it's cut 625 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,760 into two instead of four. And it also makes more sense 626 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,120 because you're playing volleyball, so you're trying to 627 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,320 like not get over a net, not over 2 Nets. 628 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,480 So then my Sara Caverns, the ritual concoction duration was 629 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,199 increased to 30 minutes. It was 10 minutes. 630 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,080 This is something you can drink if you're an alchemist and if 631 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,520 you have to have alchemy 25 and it increases nature damage dealt 632 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,080 to the enemies by 40% and it persists through death. 633 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,639 So it stays. So just it's one of those 634 00:34:54,639 --> 00:34:56,520 little, they have these little things in the dungeons 635 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,280 occasionally where it's like if you're this type of profession 636 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,280 or this specific race or class, you can do stuff. 637 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,480 This is just one of those in the Blinding Veil, the Light Blossom 638 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,840 Trinity, that's the second boss. Depending on the second boss, if 639 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,120 you went the correct path, first boss. 640 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:16,720 If you chose the less correct path, there's more casters that 641 00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:18,040 way. Don't go left, go right. 642 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,440 So the light bloom mythic plus is coming in your tanks. 643 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:24,960 You need to know this. You can please don't go the 644 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,880 wrong way. You're going to have hunters 645 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,480 disengaging into packs so that like their their overgrowth 646 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,840 periodic damage was reduced just to cut down on that. 647 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,600 That fight honestly is kind of a snooze fest. 648 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,760 So I I don't know that this needed any kind of nerf at all. 649 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,200 I did. I did hear my first M 0 tour 650 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:44,840 last week. I was told before we started. 651 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:50,920 Hey people think binding bail is really really hard on Reddit and 652 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:57,000 I can only assume that those people on Reddit did no normal 653 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,800 runs, no heroic runs, didn't open the dungeon journal and 654 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:04,160 never and just ignored all visual indicators from all of 655 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,720 the enemies to have a difficult time because it is a very easy 656 00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:13,880 dungeon anyway. So that was nerfed, sorry 657 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,440 partially nerfed periodic damage was nerfed, but the light gorge 658 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:23,000 damage was increased the buff to 50% instead of 15%. 659 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:30,880 So that's good for the players. It goes the light hunter in the 660 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,600 same same dungeon. Blood Thorne roots periodic 661 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,240 damage so the roots do less damage have. 662 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:40,280 You ever had two roots on you? Have I ever had two roots? 663 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:45,840 On you at the same time. No, I don't position myself in 664 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:47,560 such a way that that could happen. 665 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,960 I I have, I've been the unfortunate don't. 666 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,000 Don't you play with? What's that thunderous pause? 667 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,960 Is that the one that breaks roots when you switch it as a 668 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,840 ghost wolf? No, no, there is. 669 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:07,480 There is a one for your dash that allows you to remove all 670 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:11,560 sneers and so that has saved me, but that's on a 32nd cooldown 671 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:15,120 and so that that event happens more frequently than would allow 672 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,600 me to escape. You can damage them. 673 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,400 Yeah, you can hurt, you can hurt them down, but at 50%, like it 674 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,440 was trucking and I was like, oh man, when this starts going up 675 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,760 in, in difficulties, like obviously hopefully I'll be 676 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:32,600 smarter by then, but the fact that it's scaling slower is is 677 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,360 so much better. OK, that's probably good. 678 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,000 That's probably fair. All right. 679 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:43,800 And I I feel the damage less because I tank and then zeket 680 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,480 light spawn the lasher health reduced by 12.5%. 681 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,240 To the Latin, this is the last boss he summons a bunch of ads. 682 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,960 You got to blow them up fast so they reduce their health so 683 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,120 they'll die faster. And I've actually blinding veil 684 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,800 is is one of the faster dungeons that I've done and I enjoy it 685 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,880 quite a bit. That's also if you're wondering 686 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:06,840 where to find bubbles Junior. It is in the blinding veil on 687 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,440 your way to the last boss. There's a waterfall on the left, 688 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,440 if you walk near it, Bubbles Junior pops out and recognizes 689 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,960 you in glares. Then we had some changes to win 690 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,640 winner Spire Commander Frolic, which is the third boss 691 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,080 regardless of which path you go at the start. 692 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,160 They just fixed his falling rebel so it's a little bit 693 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,320 better. And then the territorial Dragon 694 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:32,320 hawk fire spit cool down was increased by 5 seconds. 695 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,320 That must be trash. I don't even know what that is. 696 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:38,360 That is OK. I was going to say that's such a 697 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,280 little impact. I don't even know what that is. 698 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,960 And then Void Sky Arena, it says portal should more reliably 699 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,160 deliver players to their destination. 700 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,960 I have no idea what this is talking about. 701 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,600 There are no port. The the only portal you take 702 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,040 takes you upstairs. Yeah, and that was failing. 703 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:53,560 Was it not taking people upstairs? 704 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,200 It was failing. Oh OK, well then that's a good 705 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:57,680 fix. That's a good fix. 706 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:03,560 The Dutch just feel fine. Then I've warmed up on Den of 707 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,840 Nalrak. It's still not great. 708 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,680 And I think we're going to run into problems when we start 709 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,320 pugging. And some pugs expect that the 710 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:15,080 tank is going to do the windy part in two poles, and some 711 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,480 people think that they're going to do it in more than two poles. 712 00:39:20,720 --> 00:39:22,800 Yeah, but it the dungeons have felt mostly fine. 713 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,840 I'm shocked we got tuning this early on them. 714 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,160 And I guess, I mean, apparently Reddit was right. 715 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,120 Blinding Veil was really hard for a lot of folks, but if you 716 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,760 just don't get hit by the mechanics, like they're almost 717 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,880 all avoidable. Everything they nerved is almost 718 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,280 all stuff you can avoid. So I don't know. 719 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,920 I I wonder if it's if it's a matter of where their targets 720 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,680 are for damage because like some groups would probably just 721 00:39:48,720 --> 00:39:52,920 absolutely have no issue with the light spawn on the last boss 722 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,760 in there. Some groups might not have the 723 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,240 burst AOE and if there are general damage targets that they 724 00:39:58,240 --> 00:40:00,720 look at him and say, yeah, OK, this needs to be brought down. 725 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,880 Even if there are enough specs currently over performing that 726 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,920 we might see this might be stuff that we're seeing in advance of 727 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,880 maybe some nerfs, maybe some changes along there. 728 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:16,760 And I think this in general, I expect season 1 to be let's 729 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,480 let's be a little bit easier on people because they don't know. 730 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,200 We don't have our add-ons. And then we got we go our 731 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,280 apocalypse. So hey, yeah. 732 00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:28,400 But I'll accept it. I'm pro accessibility, so if it 733 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,480 makes it easier for people to get in and do stuff, let's do 734 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,520 it. Whatever you got to do I this 735 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,880 just means that the the the roots, you can't avoid that 736 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,120 happen on the knockback. I'll just have an easier time 737 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:43,280 getting out of them maybe if I feel like getting rooted. 738 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,040 I still don't have no idea how you get rooted twice. 739 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,960 I'm so confused but. It was it was so weird. 740 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,960 I just, yeah, I was like, Oh my God, I got 2. 741 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,560 That's why it's per stack. That's why the nervous per stack 742 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,680 'cause you can somehow I wish I had known how I did it. 743 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,440 If I did no, then I wouldn't have happened to happened in the 744 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,560 1st place. But yes, you could have two 745 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:08,360 stacks on you and good God, it takes like mad and I had to like 746 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:16,480 do my own little sit on it AOE, try and get out selects his face 747 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,800 right there. OK, ANYWAYS. 748 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,040 And then of course, the most important change of all, that 749 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:29,840 damn sun well isn't blaring over my speakers anymore. 750 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,480 They have adjusted the volume and the blending of sounds in 751 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:37,160 the sun well to make voice overs more understandable or to make 752 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,440 anybody just, you know, generally audible over the 753 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:45,760 whatever the hell that was. That's how whining people sound 754 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,320 like. You got to make sure you 755 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,640 remember it though, Like if it's too quiet you're going to forget 756 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,800 it. I want to forget it. 757 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,200 Lex, you remember do not well. Manny. 758 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:59,040 No, I was about to invite the void right in just to shut it 759 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:03,000 up. Anyways, so that's the stuff 760 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,720 that's happened this week. But we do want to give you guys 761 00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:08,960 a little bit of a heads up for next week because when we 762 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:14,200 return, we will be in full swing of of starting up Heroic week, 763 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,080 which is next week. So coming with Heroic Week, Lex, 764 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,080 can I get you to give us the rundown? 765 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,080 It's we're doing stuff again. Things are happening. 766 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,120 OK, so Delves T right and above is going to open up. 767 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:28,800 We're gonna get our nemesis, Delve. 768 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,120 That's gonna open up. Nullies. 769 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:31,600 We love him. I don't know anything about him. 770 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,040 I'm excited though. We're gonna kill a nemesis. 771 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,400 Have have you had him show up in any of your delves yet? 772 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,080 Have I wait? Maybe. 773 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,640 I don't think so, but maybe I don't. 774 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,920 I had him, I had him ambush me once out of all the delves and 775 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,920 I've done up to delve 7 just to like make sure I'm ready to go 776 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:52,480 for next week. No, no, no, show like only 777 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,400 showed up once, so I guess he's active but subdued. 778 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,000 OK. Yeah, I, I, to be fair, I just, 779 00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:59,640 whatever's in front of me, I kill it. 780 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,760 And sometimes I think it'll be really cute for me to summon a 781 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,720 couple of little extra things in that. 782 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,760 Oh God, I can't even think of which one. 783 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,360 But the one where they you can pick up the little shadow 784 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,600 council summoning things and summon little Doomlords and then 785 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,240 kill them. And I like to do that when I'm 786 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,800 at the final boss and then die. So if you ever see my name pop 787 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,280 up on one of the which also, can I just say, sorry, a little 788 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,320 tangent. The fact that either I didn't 789 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,520 notice this in the war within or they have the new thing where 790 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,320 sometimes the name of the Dell things becomes like whatever 791 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,560 killer of player name is so sick. 792 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:34,080 I love it so much.

I don't know, I just, I feel 813 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,360 like I'm kind of hitting my stride. 814 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:46,720 I'm running 2 characters that I'm actually going to raid with 815 00:44:46,720 --> 00:44:50,280 and do Mythic plus with, which is I know like a pittance for 816 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,440 Sean. Well, not it's not true, Sean, 817 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,520 you're only doing one more that you said you're going to 818 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,920 actively push with, but on NA though, right? 819 00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:58,800 So you're going to actually have. 820 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:03,640 I'll have 3 characters it I mean it depends on the frame of 821 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,320 reference. So I'll have one character that 822 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:09,040 I'm actively spamming mythic plus with on NA, one character 823 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:13,280 that I will do 8 plus 10s with or maybe plus twelves with on 824 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,720 EU. And then he's not rating on that 825 00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:17,640 character. I'm not rating on that 826 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,240 character. I might do splits for a team and 827 00:45:19,240 --> 00:45:24,000 just be a body And then on NAI will have there's a my prop out 828 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:29,960 and who I'm tanking with on my AOTC team will be he'll he will 829 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:31,520 do probably 4 mythic plus dungeons. 830 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,880 I'll probably try and get him four 10's and then my 4th 831 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,040 character will just the goal will be 110 a week and then fill 832 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:42,960 my vault with my my delve row with prey and delves. 833 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:47,480 I recognize that the things that I'm saying, like the character 834 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,840 that I've listed as my 4th throwaway character, is what 835 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:54,480 some people will strive to do for their their main goals. 836 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:58,720 My friend who listens to the show last season texted me that 837 00:45:58,720 --> 00:46:02,040 was the the IT was at it was the the episode we recorded after 838 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,440 the first week of the raid. When I had gotten KS, I had 839 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,240 already gotten KSM and AOTC and he said my seasonal goals You've 840 00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:10,920 completed this weekend. I was, I was going to say with 841 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,440 the one that you were like 10 + 8. 842 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,360 I was like, yeah, that's probably about what I'm aiming 843 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,840 for as well. And then I realized you met per 844 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,520 week. Yeah, yeah. 845 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:26,680 So we'll see what happens. It's just I 'cause my main is my 846 00:46:26,720 --> 00:46:29,240 warrior on NA, he's who I'm mythic rating on. 847 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:34,360 So he will be the one that like hard spams mythic plus until he 848 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,000 has Bis mythic plus drops anyway. 849 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,640 So probably by the end of the second week I'll be able to swap 850 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,040 into another character, another tank doing that and then just 851 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:45,600 put him in maintenance mode. OK, but I'm a degenerate. 852 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,600 I am, I know I'm a sweat. I'm a dirty filthy sweat. 853 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:52,680 I'm I get it, I I get it. I talked about collectors 854 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,800 earlier the same way that they probably talk about me and the 855 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:57,360 people that play like me and I get it. 856 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:01,160 And if you told me, hey, we're going to put these three mythic 857 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,160 plus dungeons on the shop and you're going to pay for them and 858 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:08,480 there's 750 Hertz steel. I'd be best too, but I'd pay it. 859 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,000 I don't know, I don't fucking think what plus dungeons, Sorry 860 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:18,920 mounts end, but regardless. I under like I recognize the 861 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:20,360 hypocrisy people. I need you to know that if 862 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:24,680 you're still listening after earlier and you're somebody who 863 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:29,400 isn't like collectors are just they are just as hardcore as 864 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,320 race the world first Raiders. Like you know, Miri's is posting 865 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,200 the level 25 people, the 90. I guarantee you there's 866 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,920 collectors who do the same thing or damn well close to it or 867 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,520 spent, you know, 100 hours just doing lumber. 868 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,800 You're just as deranged. But you do have to pick a side 869 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,320 because as we all know, you can't be a collector and. 870 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:55,600 Specifically mounts. You can't specific mounts that 871 00:47:55,800 --> 00:48:03,200 can be a mount collector. Then as a as a wannabe real 872 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:08,840 player I'm going to be running 2 characters through mythic plus. 873 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:17,160 Definitely want to fill up the vault with the whatever the cap 874 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,320 is that I can that I can achieve. 875 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:24,960 Currently my warlocks actually, I think basically the same gear 876 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:29,040 level as my shaman. Both of them are around 877 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:33,400 2:35-ish. And so I'm happy with it so far. 878 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,920 But I think it's going to be quite the effort when we get 879 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,480 into the main season. So that's why I was referencing 880 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,640 like how much you're you're going to, how many characters 881 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,800 you're going to hold up. Can I give you a tip? 882 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,760 Can Ioffer some advice? I would love a tip because I did 883 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,320 ask you when I was streaming and I did ask a couple of people. 884 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:52,240 I'm like, what should I do? How should I do this? 885 00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:54,440 And and so like, let's hear this advice, please. 886 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,640 Your shaman is your main. You have a push group that you 887 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,120 run with your shaman I assume? Yes. 888 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,880 I would say only run mythic for for the first week. 889 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,120 For March 24th, only run mythic plus on your shaman until you 890 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,080 have gotten. If you can get the plus 10s, 891 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,760 you've got an 8 plus 10s, whatever the cap is that you can 892 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,280 get to in that week with your group. 893 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:20,520 If it's only eights and it's only eights, whatever the cap 894 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:25,520 is, only run your shaman until you have gotten 3 slots in your 895 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,040 vault of that cap on your warlock that week. 896 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:33,480 You should aim to fill your delve slots your your world 897 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:37,880 slots with either three slots of +8 delves or sleep three slot a 898 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,600 combination of that and nightmare prey so that he's at 899 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,720 least getting a hero track piece from the vault. 900 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:44,720 And it's important. And you should also do this on 901 00:49:44,720 --> 00:49:48,240 your on your shaman because tier pieces matter more than anything 902 00:49:48,240 --> 00:49:49,880 else in that first that first week. 903 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,880 So even if there's a mythic track item, you may be better 904 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,200 off taking a tier piece of a tier pieces in your hero slot. 905 00:49:55,600 --> 00:50:03,120 And then if your mythic plus group is open to it, you should 906 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,920 each of you try to cycle through one key of whatever your Max 907 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:11,760 level is on your alts. So you get 7 of your eight that 908 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:15,560 you need on your shaman it with your full group. 909 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,760 And then the next one that you run one of your groups cycles 910 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,840 out their main for their alt so that their alt then gets one 911 00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:26,600 track of that highest level. If the highest level you're 912 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,200 getting is still just giving hero track gear. 913 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,920 So if you're not getting plus 10s, you can drop that entirely 914 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,360 because hero track in the in the mythic plus vault is just as 915 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:37,800 good as hero track in the bottom bolt. 916 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,000 And you don't you want to avoid burnout. 917 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:41,600 That's going to be the key is to avoid burnout. 918 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,080 So if you can get the plus 10s, that's awesome. 919 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,920 If you can do 8 plus 10s to fill your track, that's better. 920 00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:51,960 And then if you can get 1 + 10, if you can get your your mythic 921 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,400 plus group to give to it, it'll be a carry. 922 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:58,720 But to take your alt into a plus 10s that you're you're alt then 923 00:50:58,720 --> 00:51:00,520 has one possible mythic track piece. 924 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,080 And on both of those characters, no matter what, fill that world 925 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,120 slot for that first week. And then whatever you get in the 926 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:09,200 raid is fine. That's going to be the best bet 927 00:51:09,240 --> 00:51:11,000 for people that are not mythic rating. 928 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,760 And especially they're not in like the if you're not going 929 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,360 into the mythic raid in that first week of March 24th, if 930 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:19,880 your Guild is not doing that, you're going to get so much more 931 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:24,400 value from trying to push 2 plus 10s in mythic plus then you will 932 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,560 from anything else. But always target tier in those 933 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,400 first couple weeks because you want to get the faster you get 934 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,400 the four piece, the more damage you do, the better you are off 935 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:35,320 you are. Yeah, that's I mean, that's 936 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,120 advice for anybody, even if you're only running 1 character, 937 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,960 if you're just running 1 character and you're not a 938 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,640 mythic grader, if you're a mythic grader and you're anybody 939 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,560 who gets CE in the you know, the world top 500 rank, you don't 940 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,800 need any of this. Your GM or Ray lead has probably 941 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,400 already given you tons of advice and a step by step guide. 942 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,000 Go find the Larious Raiders guide and just follow that. 943 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:59,520 But anybody who's in a heroic rating team or lower or in a 944 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:03,520 late, very late CE mythic team or just like a team that just 945 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:07,600 does sort of a little bit of mythic, try to focus on pushing 946 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:12,360 that mythic plus level to A10 if you can get it, because every 947 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,680 week you can get a myth track piece out of the vault is a is a 948 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,320 benefit there. You go. 949 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,840 That is advice that I'm probably going to take the heart. 950 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,400 I really do want to avoid burnout because like this is 951 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:27,000 like the first time I'm actually like trying to juggle 952 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:32,200 characters. So even if it it's some piece of 953 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,280 that, I think that everybody should try and avoid burnout. 954 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,760 Like it's it's great. We're all feast in here. 955 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:40,520 We're loving it. Lex is saying this is this is 956 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:47,040 the single player haven for this little bit but like that content 957 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:50,560 is going to be there. Don't burn yourself out from 958 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,960 both ends of the spectrum and from non real players like me. 959 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,320 But until. And don't hold on, don't also 960 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,720 don't feel bad if you if you can't get because I, I realize 961 00:52:58,720 --> 00:53:00,960 that I'm saying this and people are like, well, what if I can't? 962 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:02,360 What if I can only get a plus somebody? 963 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,200 If it doesn't, if whatever you can get to is good, do whatever 964 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,360 you can do. It's not like, Oh, I didn't get 965 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,360 a 10. My season's over. 966 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:13,680 Do whatever you can do. I was just sort of giving nanny 967 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,640 tires because I know the level Manny usually lives at. 968 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:23,160 OK, but until next time guys me all your hits we crits.
