Combat For Everyone!
Good morning, Azeroth!
This week, we’re diving into Midnight’s “Combat for Everyone” update — Blizzard’s push to make WoW’s combat more approachable without losing depth.
We’re breaking down what it means for your class, what’s exciting (and risky), plus a look at community highlights and the return of SNARK!
So grab your coffee, adjust your keybinds, and join us for another cozy morning!
1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,720
I have witnessed this battle before.
2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,600
They who would stop at nothing
to destroy our world.
3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:13,280
And the heroes who would
sacrifice everything to save it.
4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,720
This is the timeline, you know.
5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,880
But the past, like the future,
is never etched in stone.
6
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,640
You are not hero.
7
00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:43,020
Good morning, Azeroth,
broadcasting live from the trade
8
00:00:43,100 --> 00:00:44,460
district of Stormwind.
9
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:51,020
Hey, who rerouted our cane
relay through the coffee pot again?
10
00:00:52,220 --> 00:00:53,180
Coffee's done.
11
00:00:54,540 --> 00:00:57,420
Hang on, I think we got it.
12
00:01:00,380 --> 00:01:03,180
This is Azeroth Morning Radio.
13
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,120
Warcraft for the rest of us.
14
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,160
And good Tuesday morning, Azeroth.
15
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,000
Welcome, everybody.
16
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,960
This is episode three of
Azeroth Morning Radio.
17
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,960
Hello, it's Warcraft.
18
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:32,800
For the rest of us here, the
9-5ers, the weekend warriors, those
19
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,280
of us who have a sink full of
dishes and about 30 minutes to play.
20
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,140
But we love Azeroth.
21
00:01:37,380 --> 00:01:38,820
So stoked to have you all here
with us.
22
00:01:38,820 --> 00:01:40,100
We are your hosts.
23
00:01:40,340 --> 00:01:44,340
My name is Jibs, and I'm
joined by Mr.
24
00:01:44,580 --> 00:01:51,780
Eight Time Toilet bowl cleaner
of Dornagal, which I hear it's very.
25
00:01:52,020 --> 00:01:53,220
Has a lot of stone in it.
26
00:01:53,220 --> 00:01:54,500
Anyway, our good friend Cash.
27
00:01:54,580 --> 00:01:56,500
Hey, everybody, Cash is here.
28
00:01:56,500 --> 00:01:57,940
And you know that is true.
29
00:01:58,100 --> 00:02:02,340
I don't really advertise that,
but that wasn't even a position back
30
00:02:02,340 --> 00:02:02,860
in the day.
31
00:02:02,860 --> 00:02:06,600
However, Dornagal has a
notorious taco joint.
32
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:11,400
I will carry many memorable
experiences back to the archive.
33
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,160
That's true, that's true,
that's true.
34
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,040
Oh, gosh.
35
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:18,960
Well, hey, welcome, everybody.
36
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,360
Thanks so much for tuning in.
37
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,160
Before we get started, buddy,
what'd you do in game this week?
38
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,840
It's been a fruitful week.
39
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,440
Go on.
40
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,000
I've.
41
00:02:29,250 --> 00:02:31,170
I feel like this was.
42
00:02:32,690 --> 00:02:33,410
It felt like.
43
00:02:33,410 --> 00:02:35,050
Well, it felt like something
was launching, which.
44
00:02:35,050 --> 00:02:35,690
Something was.
45
00:02:35,690 --> 00:02:36,610
Which was pretty cool.
46
00:02:36,610 --> 00:02:43,890
But you know how you get into
that mode where you spend time before
47
00:02:43,970 --> 00:02:47,210
you log off for the night when
something big is coming the next
48
00:02:47,210 --> 00:02:50,250
day and, like, you're getting
stuff ready, you're making sure you
49
00:02:50,250 --> 00:02:51,890
have all your affairs in order.
50
00:02:52,290 --> 00:02:52,890
Oh, yeah.
51
00:02:52,890 --> 00:02:57,510
And so, like, I'm on retail
that last night before remix launches,
52
00:02:57,510 --> 00:03:00,390
and I'm making sure that.
53
00:03:00,390 --> 00:03:02,270
Okay, did I do all my dailies?
54
00:03:02,910 --> 00:03:03,830
Yes, I did those.
55
00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:05,910
Okay, did I max out my depths?
56
00:03:05,910 --> 00:03:06,350
Wait, yeah.
57
00:03:06,350 --> 00:03:07,230
Max out my dubs.
58
00:03:07,550 --> 00:03:08,510
What does my.
59
00:03:09,550 --> 00:03:11,190
What does my vault look like?
60
00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:12,910
Okay, let's take a look and
see what it looks like.
61
00:03:13,150 --> 00:03:16,670
Cleaning the inventory, moving
stuff to the bank, just getting him
62
00:03:16,670 --> 00:03:21,390
ready for when I get back to
my resto druid, which at this point,
63
00:03:21,390 --> 00:03:22,950
I don't know when that's going
to be.
64
00:03:22,950 --> 00:03:23,950
It might be a minute.
65
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:28,060
I might log in to, like, see
the transmogs and stuff that I'm
66
00:03:28,060 --> 00:03:28,820
getting in remix.
67
00:03:28,820 --> 00:03:32,540
But, yeah, that was a big part
of the end of my week, was making
68
00:03:32,540 --> 00:03:35,980
sure that I had all my affairs
in order, so I didn't feel like I
69
00:03:35,980 --> 00:03:40,060
had any loose ends that I had
to go back to before remix started.
70
00:03:40,379 --> 00:03:45,180
And then once remix hit, like,
that was it.
71
00:03:45,340 --> 00:03:46,020
You want to.
72
00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:48,540
I know we're gonna get into it
a bit, but you want to talk about
73
00:03:48,540 --> 00:03:51,420
getting locked into something
that was new for me because I didn't
74
00:03:51,420 --> 00:03:52,740
do Miss a Panda Area remix.
75
00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:58,420
This is my first remix, and I
am having so much damn fun.
76
00:03:58,500 --> 00:03:59,060
Oh, yeah.
77
00:03:59,060 --> 00:03:59,540
Doing it.
78
00:03:59,540 --> 00:04:00,020
Yeah.
79
00:04:00,020 --> 00:04:00,740
Yeah, It's.
80
00:04:00,740 --> 00:04:01,660
It's amazing.
81
00:04:01,660 --> 00:04:03,100
That's what I've been doing
this week.
82
00:04:03,100 --> 00:04:03,700
I've been.
83
00:04:04,340 --> 00:04:05,260
I jumped in.
84
00:04:05,260 --> 00:04:06,100
I was excited.
85
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:07,460
I knew the name I wanted.
86
00:04:07,460 --> 00:04:10,300
As soon as the servers were
up, one of the many Discord servers
87
00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:14,340
I'm in pinged everybody that,
hey, we are.
88
00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:16,060
We're Servers are up.
89
00:04:16,060 --> 00:04:16,860
Like, all right, cool.
90
00:04:16,860 --> 00:04:20,830
Logged in immediately, got the
name I wanted, got to work.
91
00:04:20,910 --> 00:04:24,990
Of course he's a Paladin and
just off to the races.
92
00:04:25,310 --> 00:04:25,870
Same boat.
93
00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:32,910
Like, I've never been in a.
I've never been in a. I have never
94
00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:33,470
been.
95
00:04:34,830 --> 00:04:36,110
I am on the air.
96
00:04:36,750 --> 00:04:37,230
Hey.
97
00:04:37,470 --> 00:04:38,350
Hey, you two.
98
00:04:39,070 --> 00:04:41,310
You ever think of trying hair
growth potion?
99
00:04:41,470 --> 00:04:45,390
Uh, no, I haven't, thank you
very much.
100
00:04:45,630 --> 00:04:50,830
I'm telling ya, we did, and it
worked, just not where we wanted.
101
00:04:51,620 --> 00:04:53,340
Now I'm kind of rocking a hair diaper.
102
00:04:53,340 --> 00:04:54,660
But anyway, it's an idea.
103
00:04:57,940 --> 00:05:00,420
That's what you get when you
have Goblins for a sound crew.
104
00:05:00,980 --> 00:05:02,180
Can we even air that?
105
00:05:04,260 --> 00:05:05,660
I think we let it fly, bro.
106
00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:08,660
But it's pretty obvious we
didn't introduce the damn Goblins,
107
00:05:08,660 --> 00:05:09,540
and now they're pissed.
108
00:05:10,100 --> 00:05:11,220
Oh, my gosh.
109
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:12,340
I can already hear.
110
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:13,180
Not the ho.
111
00:05:13,180 --> 00:05:13,860
What do they call that?
112
00:05:13,860 --> 00:05:14,340
The people that.
113
00:05:14,340 --> 00:05:16,540
When it's like, the not hoa.
114
00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:17,260
That's for homes.
115
00:05:17,260 --> 00:05:17,940
But whatever it is.
116
00:05:17,940 --> 00:05:20,890
Like, whenever you're, like,
live on the air and they're like,
117
00:05:20,970 --> 00:05:22,890
guardians of the fcc.
118
00:05:23,130 --> 00:05:23,530
Yeah.
119
00:05:23,530 --> 00:05:24,890
What's Stormwind's version?
120
00:05:26,490 --> 00:05:28,010
Oh, gosh.
121
00:05:28,410 --> 00:05:30,290
Anyway, yeah, so we have
Goblins here.
122
00:05:30,290 --> 00:05:31,050
Welcome, fellas.
123
00:05:31,850 --> 00:05:32,570
That was good.
124
00:05:33,530 --> 00:05:35,290
But, yeah, hopped in.
125
00:05:35,690 --> 00:05:36,970
Hopped into remix.
126
00:05:37,450 --> 00:05:38,810
Had a good time with it.
127
00:05:38,810 --> 00:05:40,370
Still having a great time with it.
128
00:05:40,370 --> 00:05:42,890
It's fun because it's fun.
129
00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:46,170
Like, it's just so much
available to you.
130
00:05:46,740 --> 00:05:47,940
And honestly, we'll probably.
131
00:05:48,260 --> 00:05:50,460
We should probably jump into
that at some point before we.
132
00:05:50,460 --> 00:05:52,180
Maybe before we get into the news.
133
00:05:52,180 --> 00:05:55,540
I know we weren't planning on
it, but my goodness, man, like, that
134
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:55,860
just.
135
00:05:56,580 --> 00:05:57,300
It's fun.
136
00:05:57,620 --> 00:05:58,740
It's just pure fun.
137
00:05:58,820 --> 00:06:00,340
Yeah, definitely worth.
138
00:06:00,580 --> 00:06:04,660
I mean, we have a packed show,
but it is definitely worth a blurp.
139
00:06:04,740 --> 00:06:08,220
It's worth a small
conversation here as we, as we get
140
00:06:08,220 --> 00:06:09,220
into the news for sure.
141
00:06:09,460 --> 00:06:10,740
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
142
00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:13,860
Well, everybody, again, thank
you so much for pushing play hanging
143
00:06:13,860 --> 00:06:16,460
out with us here on Azeroth
morning radio.
144
00:06:16,460 --> 00:06:19,320
We're so stoked to have you
here with us this week on the show
145
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:19,720
we have.
146
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,400
The heroes call board is back.
147
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,000
Of course.
148
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,520
Midnight combat changes.
149
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,520
We told you in episode two.
150
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:25,680
We're talking about it this week.
151
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:26,800
And we are.
152
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,280
And Snark makes its return.
153
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,200
But before we get there, let's
go to a brief commercial.
154
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:32,880
We'll be right back.
155
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,400
Hey there, adventurers.
156
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,440
Ever get tired of losing sight
of your known party members in crowded
157
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:40,800
raids?
158
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,160
Does anybody see the healer?
159
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,920
Sick of tripping over your old
so called tiny allies and battlegrounds?
160
00:06:46,180 --> 00:06:47,140
That was my fault.
161
00:06:47,220 --> 00:06:50,100
Well, yeah, I got the solution
for you.
162
00:06:50,420 --> 00:06:54,820
The all in one one of a kind
gnome and larger 5,000.
163
00:06:54,900 --> 00:06:55,540
Oh, hey guys.
164
00:06:55,540 --> 00:06:55,980
That feels.
165
00:06:55,980 --> 00:06:57,700
Aw, this feels awesome.
166
00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:58,740
That's right.
167
00:06:58,820 --> 00:07:02,339
With just one push of a
button, we take your fun size gnome
168
00:07:02,420 --> 00:07:04,100
and make them party sized.
169
00:07:05,620 --> 00:07:09,540
Twice the fireballs, triple
the monocle glare, and don't worry,
170
00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:13,090
we've totally worked out the
side effects.
171
00:07:13,170 --> 00:07:15,130
Uh, is that a hand coming out
of my butt?
172
00:07:15,130 --> 00:07:18,970
Gnomenlaja, make your friends
huge order.
173
00:07:18,970 --> 00:07:22,290
Now we'll throw in a free
gnome sized step stool for nostalgia
174
00:07:22,290 --> 00:07:22,930
purposes.
175
00:07:23,170 --> 00:07:25,930
Perfect for remembering how
short they used to be before they
176
00:07:25,930 --> 00:07:27,250
became raid bosses.
177
00:07:27,250 --> 00:07:28,570
Okay, that's insulting.
178
00:07:28,570 --> 00:07:29,090
Warning.
179
00:07:29,090 --> 00:07:32,370
Gnome in larger 5,000 not
approved by Tinkers Union.
180
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:35,890
Side effects may include giant
boots stuck in stormwind canals,
181
00:07:36,130 --> 00:07:39,130
unintentional building
demolition, or your gnome demanding
182
00:07:39,130 --> 00:07:40,940
to be called your highness.
183
00:07:41,180 --> 00:07:42,140
All sales final.
184
00:07:46,220 --> 00:07:50,140
I'm Morpork Tichondrius,
baddest warrior.
185
00:07:50,380 --> 00:07:54,380
When I'm not lifting heavy
weights and setting them down again,
186
00:07:54,700 --> 00:07:57,740
I'm listening to Azeroth
morning radio.
187
00:08:03,260 --> 00:08:05,500
All right, welcome back everybody.
188
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,280
So the hero's call.
189
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,440
Heroes call smack.
190
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,880
What's your name, soldier Pile.
191
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:19,840
Private Pile.
192
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:21,600
Sergeant Pepper.
193
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:23,720
Yeah.
194
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:24,400
Heroes call.
195
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,520
Heroes call board.
196
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,960
This week we have a few little
shout outs here.
197
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,150
As you know, we like to shout
out the community.
198
00:08:33,790 --> 00:08:35,630
Community is what drives wow.
199
00:08:35,950 --> 00:08:40,830
It is what makes up a lot of
the fun that we have in the game.
200
00:08:40,910 --> 00:08:44,350
And there's so many people
playing World of Warcraft and the
201
00:08:44,350 --> 00:08:47,470
personalities out there,
different lives, different different
202
00:08:47,470 --> 00:08:52,030
timelines, different all kinds
of things bring together this massive
203
00:08:52,030 --> 00:08:55,310
community of people that love
the world of Azeroth.
204
00:08:55,310 --> 00:08:56,990
And we like to Highlight them.
205
00:08:57,630 --> 00:08:58,910
So we have a few tonight.
206
00:08:59,070 --> 00:09:04,770
The first one is I want to
give a massive shout out a subreddit
207
00:09:04,770 --> 00:09:06,650
on Reddit.
208
00:09:06,890 --> 00:09:09,450
I want to give a shout out to
a subreddit on Reddit.
209
00:09:11,770 --> 00:09:14,370
We put out some feelers out there.
210
00:09:14,370 --> 00:09:15,730
We're not huge Reddit guys.
211
00:09:15,730 --> 00:09:20,650
I will say that we're not huge
Reddit guys because in the past,
212
00:09:21,370 --> 00:09:28,650
Reddit has been what we might
call comasadise toxic af.
213
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:31,360
Oh, dude.
214
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,000
Ah, the smell of straw and cow dung.
215
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,560
This place brings back a lot
of memories.
216
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,200
And it, you go there with the
best intentions with, you're like
217
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:40,800
a genuine.
218
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,320
It's like when a child goes to
a toy store and walks out.
219
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,200
Like, it just like maybe the
toys were all covered in rust and
220
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,960
everything and it wasn't what
they hoped it'd be.
221
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,200
That's what Reddit is.
222
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,480
Oftentimes when you go there,
you're like, hey, everybody.
223
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:56,920
You're like, why is this
supposed to even hear loud noises?
224
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,600
I like, I think that go.
225
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,680
It definitely goes for Jibs
and definitely goes for me is that
226
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:07,880
whenever we, when we come into
a space, whether it's, you know,
227
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,480
social media, whatever it is,
we come with kindness.
228
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:18,320
Like, we really, honestly,
from our hearts, we come with kindness.
229
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,720
And I don't like, I'm not a
big, like, you know, social media
230
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:27,960
guy anyway, but I still, you
know, I'm on Twitter and, and Facebook
231
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,720
and all the things.
232
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:30,960
Not all of them.
233
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,000
I'm not on Tick Tock yet.
234
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,080
Oh, I refuse because I'm old.
235
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:35,800
Yeah.
236
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,320
And I, I, I can't do it.
237
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,320
I just, I cannot.
238
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,240
I've not brought myself to go
get on Tick Tock yet.
239
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,080
But anyway, I digress.
240
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,600
We always come at things from
a place of kindness.
241
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,880
And whenever I've gone to
Reddit for just to ask a question,
242
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,640
to put something in.
243
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,170
I'm not like a super Redditor
guy where I've got a billion posts,
244
00:10:57,410 --> 00:11:01,170
but it always feels like
you're walking across the moat.
245
00:11:01,410 --> 00:11:02,770
Remember that game Pitfall?
246
00:11:02,770 --> 00:11:03,490
Oh, yeah.
247
00:11:03,650 --> 00:11:04,170
Oh, yeah.
248
00:11:04,170 --> 00:11:07,970
You had to walk across the
rivers and you're stepping on alligator
249
00:11:07,970 --> 00:11:08,450
heads.
250
00:11:08,450 --> 00:11:09,010
Yeah.
251
00:11:09,250 --> 00:11:10,930
That's what Reddit feels like
to me.
252
00:11:12,130 --> 00:11:15,250
And somebody invariably gets me.
253
00:11:15,570 --> 00:11:20,360
And so anyway, we were doing
some promotions for the show because,
254
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,760
like, Jibs and I are super
excited about this project.
255
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:23,960
Really excited.
256
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,920
It dwarfs most of the
conversations that we have nowadays
257
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,520
because we want to talk about
the show.
258
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,480
We want to talk about, you
know, hey, we should add this or
259
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,920
we should try this or, you
know, this would be super fun.
260
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,240
And things are Going well and
blah, blah, all that stuff.
261
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,720
So we were doing some
promotions and we put a post out
262
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,400
and just got bit.
263
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,040
Got bit for jumped up.
264
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,920
It was, it was like a super
humble advertisement.
265
00:11:50,150 --> 00:11:52,950
Just like, hey, we're trying
this thing, you know, come out and
266
00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:54,670
take a look if it's your thing.
267
00:11:54,670 --> 00:11:55,550
And just got bit.
268
00:11:55,550 --> 00:11:56,710
And we were like, oh my God.
269
00:11:56,870 --> 00:12:02,310
But a subreddit reached out
and super cool.
270
00:12:02,310 --> 00:12:05,710
It was a gentleman by the name
of system of cells and he runs a
271
00:12:05,710 --> 00:12:06,630
subreddit for.
272
00:12:06,870 --> 00:12:08,870
For Reddit called Casual wow.
273
00:12:09,110 --> 00:12:11,670
And so I struck up a
conversation with this gentleman
274
00:12:11,670 --> 00:12:17,900
and just super inviting, super
good guy trying to build up this
275
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:19,500
Casual Wow subreddit.
276
00:12:19,820 --> 00:12:23,660
And I was just very impressed,
like right off the bat with this
277
00:12:23,660 --> 00:12:26,900
person's kindness because I
felt like it, like it kind of mirrors
278
00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:30,140
our own humility, you know,
just really, really nice guy.
279
00:12:30,620 --> 00:12:34,660
Anyway, if you are on Reddit
and you're looking for WOW communities
280
00:12:34,660 --> 00:12:38,060
on Reddit or looking to add
one to your repertoire, the casual
281
00:12:38,060 --> 00:12:41,580
WoW subreddit is a community
for WoW players who enjoy the less
282
00:12:41,740 --> 00:12:45,460
stressful aspects of the game,
such as questing, collecting appearances,
283
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:47,030
dungeons and player housing.
284
00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:52,270
But overall they just have a
really cool, monitored open community
285
00:12:53,310 --> 00:12:56,910
of WoW players that lean
toward the casual side.
286
00:12:57,390 --> 00:13:01,390
And from what I have
experienced there, it's been a pretty
287
00:13:01,390 --> 00:13:02,349
good spot to go.
288
00:13:02,910 --> 00:13:03,950
So, Adam.
289
00:13:04,030 --> 00:13:05,390
Yeah, absolutely.
290
00:13:05,550 --> 00:13:08,830
There was something else that
came up and honestly, had we not
291
00:13:08,830 --> 00:13:11,590
received a DM from one of our
close friends, our death, we had
292
00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:14,670
no idea that this was number
one, a show, which I felt terrible
293
00:13:14,670 --> 00:13:17,100
for, but number two, that we
even got the shout out.
294
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:19,940
So this is coming from the
podcast Solo Queue.
295
00:13:20,420 --> 00:13:23,220
Go check them out, folks,
after you're done here at AMR today.
296
00:13:23,220 --> 00:13:27,660
They gave us so much love on
their recent episode from.
297
00:13:27,660 --> 00:13:31,140
I think it was around the 8
minute mark, so 8 to 9 minute mark.
298
00:13:31,140 --> 00:13:36,180
And just gave a huge warm
welcome, which was so, like unexpected
299
00:13:36,260 --> 00:13:38,180
and was so kind and so nice.
300
00:13:38,660 --> 00:13:39,380
Solo Queue.
301
00:13:39,380 --> 00:13:40,300
It was so, so nice.
302
00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:42,340
So be sure and go check out
that podcast as well.
303
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:43,640
Really like the show.
304
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:44,320
It was awesome.
305
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,320
I, as a matter of fact, as
soon as I heard that I was on my.
306
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,440
I was driving today and I
popped the show on and I was like,
307
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,760
oh my God, like this show
makes a lot of sense.
308
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:53,880
It's Solo Queue.
309
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,280
He's a solo podcaster and he
podcasts about how he plays the game
310
00:13:58,519 --> 00:13:59,080
solo.
311
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,440
Yeah, and I'm not gonna call
him casual.
312
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,280
I'm gonna call him a bit of a
neckbearder because the guy has 65
313
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,850
characters 65 characters.
314
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:13,810
And I was like, dude, I've
been playing this game since launch
315
00:14:14,450 --> 00:14:17,770
and I have nowhere near that
many characters.
316
00:14:17,770 --> 00:14:19,810
That is a freaking commitment.
317
00:14:19,970 --> 00:14:23,050
Like, I can see if you're
saving names and such, but, man,
318
00:14:23,050 --> 00:14:23,650
I have a heart.
319
00:14:23,650 --> 00:14:28,370
I have the hardest time, you
know, nurturing my druid, let alone
320
00:14:29,170 --> 00:14:30,450
65 characters.
321
00:14:30,450 --> 00:14:34,610
And he, admittedly, he doesn't
play them all, but he just has a
322
00:14:34,610 --> 00:14:34,890
bunch.
323
00:14:34,890 --> 00:14:35,770
Like, he'll, he'll.
324
00:14:35,770 --> 00:14:37,850
There'll be an event going on
and he'll just roll a character and
325
00:14:37,850 --> 00:14:38,410
go do the event.
326
00:14:38,650 --> 00:14:39,250
That's awesome.
327
00:14:39,250 --> 00:14:41,610
And then that character lives
in his little army.
328
00:14:41,610 --> 00:14:42,250
It's awesome.
329
00:14:42,250 --> 00:14:45,490
So, but anyway, it's, it's a,
it's a really good show.
330
00:14:45,490 --> 00:14:48,050
They get, they have really
good, he's got really good sound
331
00:14:48,050 --> 00:14:48,490
quality.
332
00:14:48,970 --> 00:14:52,010
He's got, he's got, you know,
bumpers and fun stuff that goes on
333
00:14:52,010 --> 00:14:52,370
in there.
334
00:14:52,370 --> 00:14:52,730
But.
335
00:14:53,610 --> 00:14:57,330
And I have to take my hat off
to anybody who does a solo podcast.
336
00:14:57,330 --> 00:14:59,130
Yeah, that is, it's incredible.
337
00:14:59,210 --> 00:15:00,130
And he's pulling it off.
338
00:15:00,130 --> 00:15:00,530
Yeah.
339
00:15:00,530 --> 00:15:01,880
So good on you, man.
340
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,360
And thank you for your very
heartfelt shout out for our show.
341
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,200
That was really cool.
342
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:07,880
Agreed.
343
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,760
All right, last on the agenda
for Heroes Call board was something
344
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,680
that I had to mention because,
like last week when I mentioned Ragnon
345
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,440
Gaming's Druid video, Druid
Resto Druid videos, that one helped
346
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,360
me out a ton and this one also
has helped me out a bunch.
347
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:32,970
And it is another one of my go
to resources on YouTube for, for
348
00:15:32,970 --> 00:15:36,050
tutorials and just, you know,
ways to save time and stuff.
349
00:15:36,050 --> 00:15:38,770
And they're very, very, very
good about this.
350
00:15:39,170 --> 00:15:43,450
If you've never watched any
videos from the Comeback kids, do
351
00:15:43,450 --> 00:15:43,730
it.
352
00:15:43,970 --> 00:15:45,810
Throw them a, like, throw them
a sub.
353
00:15:46,290 --> 00:15:49,650
Because their videos are very,
very well thought out and very well
354
00:15:49,650 --> 00:15:50,130
produced.
355
00:15:50,130 --> 00:15:52,250
So anyway, this one in
particular that I wanted to shout
356
00:15:52,250 --> 00:15:55,440
out this week on the Heroes
call is their Legion Remix guidelines.
357
00:15:55,830 --> 00:16:00,310
And it is entitled how to
Absolutely Stomp Legion Remix and
358
00:16:00,310 --> 00:16:02,150
Earn Every Reward Fast.
359
00:16:02,710 --> 00:16:04,230
And they're not kidding.
360
00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:04,710
We've been.
361
00:16:05,030 --> 00:16:09,110
I took a bunch of notes from
their video and I've been sharing
362
00:16:09,110 --> 00:16:13,950
it with folks in our community
and some of our friends as we work
363
00:16:13,950 --> 00:16:15,510
through Legion Remix.
364
00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:20,630
And he covers everything from
the different currencies that you're
365
00:16:20,630 --> 00:16:24,790
going to, that you're going to
accumulate and utilize what priorities
366
00:16:24,790 --> 00:16:26,110
to take from day one.
367
00:16:26,110 --> 00:16:30,310
Even though we're on day
three, as a recording of the show,
368
00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:32,870
we're on day three, how to
progress quickly.
369
00:16:32,870 --> 00:16:39,390
He talks about some really
good farming spots which ain't gonna
370
00:16:39,390 --> 00:16:45,590
be so good farming spots after
this show and then, and then what
371
00:16:45,590 --> 00:16:46,430
to do at max level.
372
00:16:46,430 --> 00:16:49,880
So anyway, if you're looking
for a really good guide, get yourself
373
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,320
a paper and pen or get
yourself your phone, pop up a brand
374
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:58,200
new note and start taking some
notes on this video because it really
375
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:03,080
does help you understand how
Legion Remix works and how to maximize
376
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:03,720
your time.
377
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,720
So yeah, just a very
impressive video and I loved it and
378
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,680
it's much appreciated that
those things are out there.
379
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:11,880
Agreed.
380
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:15,400
Breaking news.
381
00:17:17,249 --> 00:17:20,049
Lots of Holly used by the
Goblin News Network.
382
00:17:22,049 --> 00:17:25,169
All right, so top news for
this week, folks.
383
00:17:25,169 --> 00:17:30,369
Now this is kind of a, I guess
at this point this is a old ish article.
384
00:17:31,009 --> 00:17:32,808
Yeah, actually it will be by
the time this comes out.
385
00:17:32,808 --> 00:17:34,369
So this came out October 1st.
386
00:17:34,849 --> 00:17:38,329
However, we talked about last
week how we were going to cover this
387
00:17:38,329 --> 00:17:41,969
episode because we really
wanted to spend time talking about
388
00:17:41,969 --> 00:17:45,730
this because this has made a
lot of waves in the community and
389
00:17:45,730 --> 00:17:51,450
it's honestly been very
enjoyable to sit back and just listen
390
00:17:51,450 --> 00:17:53,530
to what everyone has to say
about this.
391
00:17:53,530 --> 00:17:54,810
And this is coming to.
392
00:17:55,370 --> 00:18:01,090
This is coming to us from
warcraft.com so it is Developer Insight
393
00:18:01,090 --> 00:18:04,090
Combat for Everyone in Midnight.
394
00:18:04,490 --> 00:18:07,610
And that speaks truth to a lot
of what World of Warcraft is.
395
00:18:07,610 --> 00:18:08,090
It's.
396
00:18:08,410 --> 00:18:10,800
It seems as though it's more
moving more and more.
397
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,200
So that was one of the things
that got like, kind of brought us
398
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,360
here all, all this time over
the years is it just kind of fits
399
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:20,880
us, you know, it's that it's
the, the 99 vibe, like everything
400
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,440
we talk about here on the
show, you know, it's, it's for everyone.
401
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,040
And so that's kind of what
they're doing with the combat.
402
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,920
Combat for Everyone in Midnight.
403
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,520
And this is like a, this is a
very lengthy article, but we're kind
404
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,040
of just going to take our time
and go through it.
405
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,840
In short, combat changes are
coming in Midnight.
406
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,240
We know that, especially after
this article.
407
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,200
And there's one thing that I
want to read verbatim before we get
408
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,960
started because it kind of
sets everything up for a discussion
409
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:46,600
for you and I.
410
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,680
And it says, quote, we are
updating every class specialization
411
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,280
with an eye towards
approachability by reducing complexity
412
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:55,200
and making gameplay more intuitive.
413
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,560
We are beginning by focusing
on what makes each specialization
414
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,120
unique and designing gameplay
that matches their theme so your
415
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,520
character's personality and
style are reflected in how you play.
416
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,040
Our goal is for the most
appealing, visible elements of your
417
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,280
spec to be what matters most
in gameplay.
418
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,440
That often means managing
resources, tracking a few key buffs
419
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,880
and debuffs, using ability
Charges strategically and responding
420
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,760
to important triggered
effects, also known as procs.
421
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,080
So they're redoing everything.
422
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,870
I mean, well, let me rephrase that.
423
00:19:27,870 --> 00:19:30,070
They're redoing combat,
they're making it more approachable,
424
00:19:30,070 --> 00:19:31,110
they're changing things up.
425
00:19:31,270 --> 00:19:32,230
And there's been a lot.
426
00:19:32,230 --> 00:19:34,750
And we've already seen the
first wave of kind of what those
427
00:19:34,750 --> 00:19:38,510
patch notes may look like and
I believe they were 100 and what
428
00:19:38,510 --> 00:19:42,150
was it, like over 140 plus
pages or something at this point?
429
00:19:42,310 --> 00:19:42,670
Yeah.
430
00:19:42,670 --> 00:19:47,110
According to Bellular's, One
of Bellular's latest videos is 38,000
431
00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:47,750
words.
432
00:19:48,150 --> 00:19:50,230
Wow, that's a lot of words.
433
00:19:50,550 --> 00:19:51,510
Yeah, yeah.
434
00:19:51,510 --> 00:19:54,740
I mean that's, that's a,
that's a short story.
435
00:19:55,140 --> 00:19:56,180
That's a novella.
436
00:19:56,500 --> 00:20:01,380
Yeah, you know, dude, I mean,
and, and kudos to them for going
437
00:20:01,380 --> 00:20:04,820
through all of those changes
the way that they have and so.
438
00:20:04,820 --> 00:20:07,140
And in depth like they did.
439
00:20:07,460 --> 00:20:10,700
And the core theme for this
with them is that their aim is to
440
00:20:10,700 --> 00:20:13,940
make World of Warcraft combat
more approachable and intuitive.
441
00:20:14,580 --> 00:20:17,780
And while not losing the depth and.
442
00:20:17,780 --> 00:20:21,950
Or mastery that players enjoy,
that seems to be a thing that, that's
443
00:20:21,950 --> 00:20:22,510
going around.
444
00:20:22,510 --> 00:20:24,230
So they're talking a lot about.
445
00:20:24,230 --> 00:20:27,910
They're going to be, I would
say, streamlining a lot of the classes.
446
00:20:27,910 --> 00:20:30,750
I think to me this is Warcraft
Combat 2.0.
447
00:20:30,910 --> 00:20:32,110
That's how I see this.
448
00:20:32,110 --> 00:20:35,470
I don't know how you see all
this, but to me it's.
449
00:20:35,630 --> 00:20:39,350
They're up, they're updating
the combat to match the updates with
450
00:20:39,350 --> 00:20:39,710
the game.
451
00:20:40,110 --> 00:20:44,150
The one thing I don't want to
see it turn into because this has
452
00:20:44,150 --> 00:20:47,290
happened in the past and this
is going to out me with my, with
453
00:20:47,290 --> 00:20:48,970
my elder age again.
454
00:20:50,090 --> 00:20:58,610
But have any of you out there
experienced what happened with Star
455
00:20:58,610 --> 00:21:01,370
Wars Galaxies way back in the day?
456
00:21:01,450 --> 00:21:06,690
Oh, I know and I hate to bring
it up here because I really do have
457
00:21:06,690 --> 00:21:09,130
trust in Blizzard that they're
going to pull this off and knock
458
00:21:09,130 --> 00:21:09,770
it out of the park.
459
00:21:09,930 --> 00:21:14,880
I didn't have that same trust
in Sony Online Entertainment way
460
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:20,120
back in the day because they
completely pooped on that game like
461
00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:20,840
badly.
462
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,720
So if you don't know, I'll sum
it up really quickly.
463
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:30,560
Star Wars Galaxies was a Star
wars massively multiplayer online
464
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,600
role playing game that I
believe launched in 09.
465
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,280
And I sunk a ton.
466
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,400
I'm a massive Star wars fan,
so I sunk a ton of time into that
467
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,800
game and the game systems had
all these little intricacies and
468
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,640
it was truly a Star wars sandbox.
469
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,520
Like it was really a lot of fun.
470
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,240
Because of all the things you
could do in the game and the combat
471
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,560
systems could be complex.
472
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,440
A lot of the systems in the
game were very deep and very complex.
473
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,200
Like, you know, you had
crafting and serving for resources
474
00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:05,310
and just so much stuff.
475
00:22:05,620 --> 00:22:10,140
It could be anything from a
merchant, a diplomat, a dancer in
476
00:22:10,140 --> 00:22:12,100
a cantina, all the way to a.
477
00:22:13,620 --> 00:22:14,740
To a Jedi Knight.
478
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:15,940
And that was only.
479
00:22:16,660 --> 00:22:21,940
You could only be a Jedi only
if you had unlocked a whole bunch
480
00:22:21,940 --> 00:22:26,820
of classes and maxed them all
out in the correct order.
481
00:22:27,700 --> 00:22:30,820
And all that did was open up
an additional character slot for
482
00:22:30,820 --> 00:22:32,430
you to have a force sensitive character.
483
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:36,180
Super cryptic until people
figured it out, but super cryptic.
484
00:22:36,500 --> 00:22:40,940
Amazingly cool, amazingly
exclusive in certain aspects where
485
00:22:40,940 --> 00:22:41,100
you.
486
00:22:41,100 --> 00:22:41,340
True.
487
00:22:41,340 --> 00:22:47,340
If you saw a Jedi in town, it
was amazing to see that because it's
488
00:22:47,340 --> 00:22:48,180
so rare, right?
489
00:22:49,940 --> 00:22:53,860
They came back and it was
almost overnight.
490
00:22:53,860 --> 00:22:55,020
That's what it seemed like to me.
491
00:22:55,020 --> 00:22:59,780
Because at the time I was not
paying attention to development cycles
492
00:22:59,780 --> 00:23:00,510
the way I do now.
493
00:23:00,580 --> 00:23:02,660
I was not a patch note reader
like I am now.
494
00:23:02,740 --> 00:23:05,580
But it almost seemed like
overnight they put these combat changes
495
00:23:05,580 --> 00:23:10,340
in the game and now all of a
sudden everybody can be a Jedi.
496
00:23:10,740 --> 00:23:11,860
Just got to pick the class.
497
00:23:12,740 --> 00:23:15,460
You could take everything that
you'd earn in the game, all your.
498
00:23:15,460 --> 00:23:18,540
All your points and everything
from your classes and you could just
499
00:23:18,540 --> 00:23:20,820
put it into whatever class you wanted.
500
00:23:20,820 --> 00:23:25,860
And it completely changed the
gameplay and the feel of the game.
501
00:23:26,270 --> 00:23:28,870
I don't think that's what
Blizzard is going to do here.
502
00:23:28,870 --> 00:23:29,470
I think it's.
503
00:23:29,470 --> 00:23:33,910
It's a far cry, but that is in
the deepest, darkest corner of my
504
00:23:33,910 --> 00:23:34,190
heart.
505
00:23:34,190 --> 00:23:38,670
That's a worry that this is
kind of what they're alluding to.
506
00:23:39,390 --> 00:23:42,030
And there's a second point
that I want to bring up.
507
00:23:42,670 --> 00:23:45,630
Maybe I'll bring it up in a
little bit and kind of expand upon
508
00:23:45,630 --> 00:23:46,110
it a little bit.
509
00:23:46,110 --> 00:23:50,430
But do you think maybe they're
making things a little bit easier
510
00:23:50,430 --> 00:23:52,560
because they're prepping for a
console release?
511
00:23:53,270 --> 00:23:53,990
Oh, 100%.
512
00:23:54,310 --> 00:23:56,870
And I would even go as far as
to say eventually a mobile release.
513
00:23:57,270 --> 00:23:57,990
Oh no.
514
00:23:58,310 --> 00:23:58,950
Did I.
515
00:23:58,950 --> 00:23:59,990
Did I push a button?
516
00:24:00,150 --> 00:24:00,590
Yeah.
517
00:24:00,590 --> 00:24:01,670
Because I hate mobile games.
518
00:24:04,550 --> 00:24:05,990
Yeah, no, absolutely.
519
00:24:05,990 --> 00:24:07,790
Priming for a console release.
520
00:24:07,790 --> 00:24:09,990
You have the one button
rotation, right?
521
00:24:10,150 --> 00:24:11,750
That's something we've never
really talked about.
522
00:24:11,830 --> 00:24:15,830
I love the fact that that is
in the game that is made.
523
00:24:16,470 --> 00:24:20,470
I have seen posts where people
who due to physical disabilities,
524
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,760
they were never able to attain
a rating in.
525
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,000
It was one post.
526
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,640
I wish I could remember exactly.
527
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:27,880
I would link it too.
528
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:28,400
But they.
529
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,840
This person could never hit
rating in arenas in PvP arenas because
530
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,839
of the rotation, they were
able to finally achieve the rating
531
00:24:36,839 --> 00:24:38,160
they were looking for and get
the set.
532
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,280
They've, you know, get a, get
a set because that means something.
533
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,200
And it was just.
534
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,800
And they got that because of
the one button rotation.
535
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,520
And I'm just like, I love the
fact it's in the game.
536
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,160
It makes it.
537
00:24:48,470 --> 00:24:51,390
Except that increases
accessibility across the board for
538
00:24:51,390 --> 00:24:55,430
people who need it and you
know, it's, it's a great resource
539
00:24:55,430 --> 00:24:56,830
and so, yeah, absolutely.
540
00:24:56,830 --> 00:24:57,990
I could see a console Release.
541
00:24:58,070 --> 00:25:00,550
I am 100% on board with you there.
542
00:25:01,590 --> 00:25:03,830
I love the one button thing.
543
00:25:03,830 --> 00:25:05,190
I think it's, I think it's great.
544
00:25:05,190 --> 00:25:09,150
I think it goes right along
with things like the arachnophobia
545
00:25:09,150 --> 00:25:09,510
mode.
546
00:25:09,510 --> 00:25:13,750
Could you imagine having a
crippling fear, A crippling fear
547
00:25:14,300 --> 00:25:19,180
that was not your choice and
not able to play a game because there's
548
00:25:19,740 --> 00:25:21,820
freaking spiders everywhere.
549
00:25:23,260 --> 00:25:23,660
Right.
550
00:25:24,060 --> 00:25:24,580
Yeah.
551
00:25:24,580 --> 00:25:28,340
And you click on this
arachnophobia mode and it completely
552
00:25:28,340 --> 00:25:31,580
changes your ability to play
the game.
553
00:25:32,300 --> 00:25:36,060
That is a company that's
paying attention to their people.
554
00:25:36,380 --> 00:25:36,860
Yeah.
555
00:25:36,860 --> 00:25:37,460
That's awesome.
556
00:25:37,460 --> 00:25:41,620
Of course they're paying
attention to money too, but at the
557
00:25:41,620 --> 00:25:44,090
same time, it's a business.
558
00:25:44,330 --> 00:25:48,170
But a lot more people get to
play the game because of attention
559
00:25:48,170 --> 00:25:49,170
to detail like that.
560
00:25:49,170 --> 00:25:49,610
Yeah.
561
00:25:49,770 --> 00:25:52,570
So, you know, I mentioned the
Star wars galaxy thing and like in,
562
00:25:52,570 --> 00:25:54,410
you know, in the deepest part
of my heart, that's what I'm.
563
00:25:54,490 --> 00:25:56,090
That's what I'm worried about happening.
564
00:25:56,090 --> 00:25:57,130
Do I think that's going to happen?
565
00:25:57,370 --> 00:25:57,770
No.
566
00:25:58,090 --> 00:25:58,650
And it.
567
00:25:58,890 --> 00:26:00,330
I considered this a lot.
568
00:26:00,330 --> 00:26:02,610
I'm not, you know, I'm an
older dude.
569
00:26:02,610 --> 00:26:03,610
I don't like change.
570
00:26:03,690 --> 00:26:04,850
As you get older, you just.
571
00:26:04,850 --> 00:26:06,090
I don't like change.
572
00:26:06,090 --> 00:26:09,290
I just had this conversation
about how Ragnarok's making me a
573
00:26:09,290 --> 00:26:10,380
better druid right now.
574
00:26:10,380 --> 00:26:12,900
I can, as he says, like, I can
spin the plates.
575
00:26:12,980 --> 00:26:13,780
You need a hot.
576
00:26:13,780 --> 00:26:14,500
You need a hot.
577
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:15,060
You need a hot.
578
00:26:15,060 --> 00:26:15,900
You need a second hot.
579
00:26:15,900 --> 00:26:16,980
You need a second hot.
580
00:26:17,060 --> 00:26:19,900
And I do all these little heal
over times and I'm just constantly
581
00:26:19,900 --> 00:26:22,180
looking at that while I'm
dodging things on the ground and
582
00:26:22,180 --> 00:26:23,220
trying to stay out of the poop.
583
00:26:23,540 --> 00:26:29,420
And I'm finally feeling more
comfortable doing that and learning
584
00:26:29,420 --> 00:26:30,020
my class.
585
00:26:30,820 --> 00:26:32,100
And now things are going to change.
586
00:26:32,180 --> 00:26:35,220
So for a minute I was like,
dagnabbit, these things are going
587
00:26:35,220 --> 00:26:35,780
to change again.
588
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,560
And then, then it came down to
what I, what I really felt about
589
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,280
it after I had some consideration.
590
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:47,520
And that is if they're going
to simplify things a little bit.
591
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,440
What are they going to simplify.
592
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,320
So of course, patch note reader.
593
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,480
And like everybody out there,
I know what you do when you read
594
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:57,280
patch notes.
595
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,360
You go, hunter meh.
596
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:00,720
Demon hunter meh.
597
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,160
Paladin meh.
598
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,520
Well, there's my class.
599
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:05,760
You go right to your class.
600
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:07,440
You know what I mean?
601
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:08,080
I'm offended.
602
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:09,040
You should be.
603
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,840
But you go right to your class
and you read those patch notes.
604
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,040
That's exactly what I did for Druid.
605
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:20,320
And I got to the Resto part
and I started reading and I was like,
606
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,800
you know, these changes are
actually kind of smart.
607
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,280
These changes are not going to
completely change the way that my
608
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:31,120
class plays.
609
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:32,720
My class identity's still there.
610
00:27:33,340 --> 00:27:35,260
The flow is going to get better.
611
00:27:35,580 --> 00:27:41,100
It's going to get a little bit
easier to maintain a lot of my heals
612
00:27:41,100 --> 00:27:41,660
over time.
613
00:27:42,540 --> 00:27:46,140
And when I started looking at
it from that perspective, it totally
614
00:27:46,140 --> 00:27:50,700
changed my mind and made me
more interested in a lot of these
615
00:27:50,700 --> 00:27:52,780
bullet points that, that
they're putting out there.
616
00:27:53,260 --> 00:27:54,700
So one of them being.
617
00:27:54,940 --> 00:27:58,100
Players often find WoW's
combat and talent systems overly
618
00:27:58,100 --> 00:28:01,100
complex with too many
abilities, buffs and debuffs to manage.
619
00:28:01,980 --> 00:28:07,060
So this, these new changes are
going to create or note the difficulty
620
00:28:07,060 --> 00:28:12,700
in that creates barriers for
both brand new players and returning
621
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:13,020
players.
622
00:28:13,020 --> 00:28:16,620
And this is something that
every one of us that has friends
623
00:28:16,780 --> 00:28:22,620
who have stepped away from WOW
and have tried to come back, we all
624
00:28:22,620 --> 00:28:27,180
have at least one friend
that's like, dude, I am so lost,
625
00:28:27,260 --> 00:28:28,620
I don't even know where to start.
626
00:28:29,020 --> 00:28:30,700
And that's not just with
content, right?
627
00:28:30,700 --> 00:28:33,260
That's with the skills of the game.
628
00:28:33,260 --> 00:28:33,660
Right.
629
00:28:33,820 --> 00:28:37,260
And that's honestly an art, I
think when it comes to MMO design,
630
00:28:37,260 --> 00:28:37,660
period.
631
00:28:37,820 --> 00:28:42,020
We saw it in eso, we've seen
it in other games as well, where
632
00:28:42,020 --> 00:28:47,300
a game is able to successfully
hold someone by the hand just the
633
00:28:47,300 --> 00:28:51,540
right amount to lead them from
confusion to an understanding of
634
00:28:51,540 --> 00:28:55,060
what they're doing and be able
to fully embrace the game that they're
635
00:28:55,060 --> 00:28:55,320
playing.
636
00:28:56,030 --> 00:28:59,070
And that's their goal with,
with this as well.
637
00:28:59,230 --> 00:29:00,270
Because think about it.
638
00:29:00,430 --> 00:29:03,310
How important is combat in an mmo?
639
00:29:03,310 --> 00:29:08,990
Is that not one of the most
heavily, heavily graded and judged
640
00:29:08,990 --> 00:29:12,190
things by players when any new
MMO comes out?
641
00:29:12,430 --> 00:29:15,790
We just came off of playing
Ashes of Creation and testing and
642
00:29:15,790 --> 00:29:18,790
doing all that we solve in
that community there.
643
00:29:18,790 --> 00:29:22,290
Just how important combat was,
you know, to a developing mmo?
644
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,720
Fast forward to this giant
who's been in in the ring, you know,
645
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,480
and has been holding the crown
for years at this point.
646
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,160
This is something that, and I
would, I would caution everyone who's
647
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,480
listening to, to be encouraged
by that.
648
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,239
This is not something they
take lightly because they're looking
649
00:29:38,239 --> 00:29:41,960
at this from the goal of
approachability without dumbing it
650
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:42,280
down.
651
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,240
And that's a great goal to
have because then we know as players,
652
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,560
hey, that's the focus.
653
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,920
That's one of the main focuses.
654
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:50,400
Yeah.
655
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,160
So to me, it looks like they are.
656
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,440
They're altering your combat flow.
657
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,160
And I don't know if it was last.
658
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,200
I think it was last show.
659
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,560
We were talking about how one
of the most amazing things about
660
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:07,760
World of Warcraft is that it
can be as simple or as complex as
661
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:08,800
you want it to be.
662
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,880
And at this point in 2025,
yeah, you can go out and pick flowers,
663
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,040
you can, you can turn on the
one button rotation and you can,
664
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,320
you can slam dungeons and have
no problems because now you're just
665
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,480
hitting the one button and you
can pay complete attention to the
666
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,120
poop on the ground and all the
things that you don't want to slip
667
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:30,880
and end up in.
668
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:31,280
Right.
669
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:37,200
Or you can leave the one
button rotation off and not have
670
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:43,730
a Hakili or any other combat
assisting add ons on or the native
671
00:30:43,730 --> 00:30:44,530
combat assist.
672
00:30:44,690 --> 00:30:48,450
You can have all that stuff
off and research your character and
673
00:30:48,530 --> 00:30:51,850
know what should come next
because you've studied it and you've
674
00:30:51,850 --> 00:30:55,570
practiced it and you have
become a master of your class.
675
00:30:56,530 --> 00:30:59,210
So again, the game can be as
simple as you want it to be or as
676
00:30:59,210 --> 00:31:00,530
complex as you want it to be.
677
00:31:00,930 --> 00:31:07,290
What it looks to us like
Blizzard is trying to do is to make
678
00:31:07,290 --> 00:31:12,210
that flow in between whatever
level you choose to engage in your.
679
00:31:12,210 --> 00:31:16,930
In your character's combat to
make that more efficient.
680
00:31:17,410 --> 00:31:21,650
And I'll take, I'm going to
take my class, the Resto Druid, as
681
00:31:21,650 --> 00:31:22,449
an example.
682
00:31:22,770 --> 00:31:25,650
It looks like it's going to be easier.
683
00:31:26,370 --> 00:31:30,770
They're making changes to make
it easier for me to maintain a lot
684
00:31:30,770 --> 00:31:31,490
of my.
685
00:31:31,650 --> 00:31:33,090
A lot of my big buffs.
686
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,480
Like, you know, all the stuff
that's happening in the background
687
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,960
that I know is not happening
in the background, like, you know,
688
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,440
my mastery stacks and all
these different things that I need
689
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:44,640
to keep running.
690
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,120
If I don't have hots on every.
691
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,920
It's just a simple example.
692
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,960
I'm using a regrowth, which is
one of my heels, on a Resto Druid.
693
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,520
If I use it by itself, it
doesn't heal for very much.
694
00:32:00,220 --> 00:32:03,580
But if I use it on players
that I've already placed and have
695
00:32:03,580 --> 00:32:08,060
been maintaining heals over
time on different heals over time,
696
00:32:08,460 --> 00:32:12,140
and I have stacks and stacks
of Mastery up in that top right corner
697
00:32:12,140 --> 00:32:13,660
of my screen.
698
00:32:14,140 --> 00:32:18,980
When that regrowth hits, I'll
have somebody that'll go from damn
699
00:32:18,980 --> 00:32:26,360
near dead to full in one heal
because I have maximized the amount
700
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:27,760
of stacks that they have on them.
701
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,200
And that is, that's getting
into the mastery side of your class
702
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,760
and playing it truly correct.
703
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,120
Now for Blizzard to come
through and make that flow better
704
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,960
to where it's easier to
maintain those hots.
705
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,800
And if you have one skill on,
then it refreshes another.
706
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:50,720
That's making my gameplay a
lot more fun.
707
00:32:50,890 --> 00:32:53,490
And like what's, what's one of
the things I was talking about just
708
00:32:53,490 --> 00:32:56,290
the other day, Jibs on getting
back because I rolled another Resto
709
00:32:56,290 --> 00:32:57,330
Druid in Legion Remix.
710
00:32:57,330 --> 00:33:00,010
Okay, call me crazy, but I did it.
711
00:33:00,010 --> 00:33:03,330
I rolled another Resto druid
and I'm going through remix on a
712
00:33:03,330 --> 00:33:04,650
fresh Resto druid.
713
00:33:04,650 --> 00:33:07,970
I mentioned it to a group of
friends that we were running dungeons
714
00:33:07,970 --> 00:33:12,090
with the other night that
going back to the basics of my Resto
715
00:33:12,090 --> 00:33:17,770
druid, I am having so much fun
running dungeons because there's
716
00:33:17,770 --> 00:33:20,570
a lot more cat weaving going
on where I'm able to, you know, put
717
00:33:20,570 --> 00:33:24,530
my hots on, get it, you know,
maintain my heels and hop right back
718
00:33:24,530 --> 00:33:26,850
into dealing some damage.
719
00:33:27,090 --> 00:33:28,330
And I really like that.
720
00:33:28,330 --> 00:33:31,730
But when you get into those
high mythic keys in retail, for me,
721
00:33:32,130 --> 00:33:35,250
like the cat weaving started
to disappear a little bit because
722
00:33:35,250 --> 00:33:40,810
there was so much maintenance
that I had to keep on my group in
723
00:33:40,810 --> 00:33:42,940
order to keep everybody alive.
724
00:33:43,420 --> 00:33:44,420
So that's it.
725
00:33:44,420 --> 00:33:47,180
I know that was like, like a
long tangent on it, but that's, that's
726
00:33:47,180 --> 00:33:48,340
where I'm landing on this thing.
727
00:33:48,340 --> 00:33:50,580
And we're gonna get into some
more of these bullet points on, on
728
00:33:50,580 --> 00:33:51,420
what their goals are.
729
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:55,740
But that's what I'm seeing
this as an increase in efficiency
730
00:33:55,740 --> 00:34:02,540
for my gameplay flow is going
to increase my fun factor exponentially
731
00:34:02,540 --> 00:34:04,460
and make me really love my class.
732
00:34:04,700 --> 00:34:05,220
Agreed.
733
00:34:05,220 --> 00:34:07,460
And some of those things that
they're looking at doing is again,
734
00:34:07,460 --> 00:34:09,580
you know, and you kind of
already mentioned it, but reducing
735
00:34:09,750 --> 00:34:14,110
player overload, so lowering
actions per minute for overly spammy
736
00:34:14,110 --> 00:34:17,910
specs, trimming ability, bloat
and proc overload that flood the
737
00:34:17,910 --> 00:34:22,310
ui, preventing resource
overflows that make management meaningless.
738
00:34:22,550 --> 00:34:26,110
And then the last one here,
simplifying overly complex spells
739
00:34:26,110 --> 00:34:30,150
like adaptive swarm, surge of
power and blackout combo.
740
00:34:30,470 --> 00:34:34,790
I love the fact that we are in
a place as a Warcraft community,
741
00:34:35,550 --> 00:34:40,190
that the game is at a place
where it's capable of doing things
742
00:34:40,190 --> 00:34:40,670
like this.
743
00:34:41,630 --> 00:34:46,830
It's capable of taking A hard
look at its combat, which is so.
744
00:34:48,510 --> 00:34:53,310
Dude, that is such a crucial
core element of an mmorpg.
745
00:34:53,310 --> 00:34:54,030
It's success.
746
00:34:54,270 --> 00:34:54,870
It's everything.
747
00:34:54,870 --> 00:34:56,030
It's everything.
748
00:34:56,270 --> 00:34:58,590
It has to feel right.
749
00:34:59,310 --> 00:35:00,510
There's so much.
750
00:35:00,590 --> 00:35:04,360
Oh, my gosh, there's so much
that hinges on the combat in any
751
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,040
mmo.
752
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:10,080
The fact that we're in a place
as a community and as a game that
753
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,760
they can take a hard look at
this and streamline this.
754
00:35:14,240 --> 00:35:18,160
This is great because when I
see something like this, I don't
755
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,680
necessarily think of the now.
756
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,880
I think of post last Titan.
757
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,440
I think of five years from now.
758
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,120
What does that look like for.
759
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:29,280
How was the game able to build?
760
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,920
Because they were able to
adjust now.
761
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:37,200
And I love the fact that, you
know, you talk about flow.
762
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:42,040
One of the things that they
really discussed was leaning more
763
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,600
into the archetype of your.
764
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,840
Your class because of these changes.
765
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,440
The ability to be able to lean
more into that archetype fantasy.
766
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,850
Like, for me, I'm a paladin at
heart like that.
767
00:35:54,850 --> 00:35:55,610
I love it.
768
00:35:55,850 --> 00:35:56,770
I love it.
769
00:35:56,770 --> 00:36:02,410
And Legion has brought out in
me the absolute, no doubt protection
770
00:36:02,810 --> 00:36:03,930
Paladin in me.
771
00:36:04,090 --> 00:36:04,890
This is true.
772
00:36:05,050 --> 00:36:10,250
Because if you could wield a
lightforged sword in real life, you
773
00:36:10,250 --> 00:36:10,530
would.
774
00:36:10,530 --> 00:36:13,530
But it turns out law
enforcement frowns upon that, so
775
00:36:13,530 --> 00:36:14,610
you probably shouldn't do that.
776
00:36:14,610 --> 00:36:15,370
Turns out you.
777
00:36:15,450 --> 00:36:17,370
You probably don't want to
walk down the street with one of
778
00:36:17,370 --> 00:36:17,490
those.
779
00:36:17,490 --> 00:36:18,410
I can't imagine why.
780
00:36:18,410 --> 00:36:18,810
No.
781
00:36:19,050 --> 00:36:20,825
Yeah, you're either going to
get tased or you're going to.
782
00:36:20,890 --> 00:36:21,610
Gonna get shot.
783
00:36:21,770 --> 00:36:23,770
So don't do it.
784
00:36:24,170 --> 00:36:25,130
Don't do that thing.
785
00:36:25,210 --> 00:36:26,890
And you did not hear that from amr.
786
00:36:28,490 --> 00:36:31,730
But, yeah, it's just, you
know, it's leaning being able to
787
00:36:31,730 --> 00:36:32,490
lean more in a class.
788
00:36:32,490 --> 00:36:34,090
Fancy eliminating bloat.
789
00:36:34,090 --> 00:36:38,490
And they're also talking about
a new goal of easy to learn, challenging
790
00:36:38,490 --> 00:36:39,210
to master.
791
00:36:39,450 --> 00:36:40,650
There you go, dude.
792
00:36:40,890 --> 00:36:41,610
Goalpost.
793
00:36:41,610 --> 00:36:42,010
We.
794
00:36:42,250 --> 00:36:43,050
Exactly.
795
00:36:43,130 --> 00:36:44,330
This is what you want.
796
00:36:44,730 --> 00:36:48,700
This is what you want in any
game that you love.
797
00:36:49,020 --> 00:36:51,660
You want it to be
approachable, but you want to be
798
00:36:51,660 --> 00:36:55,980
able to see Cash when someone
has mastered that class.
799
00:36:56,060 --> 00:36:56,540
Yes.
800
00:36:56,780 --> 00:37:01,140
This is breaking down the
barriers to entry to where there's
801
00:37:01,140 --> 00:37:01,740
little to none.
802
00:37:01,740 --> 00:37:01,980
Right.
803
00:37:01,980 --> 00:37:03,660
And some classes are going to
be harder than others.
804
00:37:04,220 --> 00:37:08,420
I hate to bring up the
elephant in the room, but Beastmaster
805
00:37:08,420 --> 00:37:08,980
Hunter, right?
806
00:37:08,980 --> 00:37:09,420
It is.
807
00:37:09,420 --> 00:37:12,700
It's recommended as beginning
class, and it's easy to play.
808
00:37:13,090 --> 00:37:14,850
It's easy to play, and it's
super fun to play.
809
00:37:14,850 --> 00:37:19,570
You just stand in the back and
you fling 20 sticks and it works.
810
00:37:19,890 --> 00:37:23,610
But there is still complexity
to that class and the way that I
811
00:37:23,610 --> 00:37:24,370
bring that I'm.
812
00:37:24,370 --> 00:37:25,730
Dude, I, I play.
813
00:37:25,970 --> 00:37:27,290
I love Beastmaster Hunter.
814
00:37:27,290 --> 00:37:27,730
I love it.
815
00:37:27,730 --> 00:37:28,570
Oh, I love Hunter.
816
00:37:28,570 --> 00:37:29,169
I love a good.
817
00:37:29,250 --> 00:37:30,290
I love Hunters.
818
00:37:30,290 --> 00:37:33,330
Like that is if I'm, if I'm
talking Druid Hunters, man, it's
819
00:37:33,330 --> 00:37:35,370
like they're right next to
each other.
820
00:37:35,370 --> 00:37:38,520
For me, I just, I landed on
Druid for, for quite a while now.
821
00:37:38,750 --> 00:37:44,310
But when you have that range,
that ability to have that range to
822
00:37:44,310 --> 00:37:47,150
where you can play the class
as simple as you want, or you can
823
00:37:47,150 --> 00:37:50,190
dive into the nuts and bolts
and nuts and bolts are still going
824
00:37:50,190 --> 00:37:52,670
to be there friends for you to
pick up and put together.
825
00:37:53,230 --> 00:37:56,670
And this is what I think about
like everybody knows that you have
826
00:37:56,670 --> 00:38:02,190
a million utility skills on
pick a class, any class, there's
827
00:38:02,190 --> 00:38:03,550
a million utility skills.
828
00:38:03,950 --> 00:38:10,250
How many of you have truly
mastered your rotation and use of
829
00:38:10,250 --> 00:38:11,570
all those utility skills?
830
00:38:11,570 --> 00:38:12,370
I haven't.
831
00:38:12,450 --> 00:38:13,530
I definitely haven't.
832
00:38:13,530 --> 00:38:17,130
It would probably take me
years to do so.
833
00:38:17,130 --> 00:38:19,530
It would take anybody years to
do so, you know, except for some
834
00:38:19,530 --> 00:38:21,450
of the most skilled folks out there.
835
00:38:21,450 --> 00:38:23,650
And there's a bunch, there's a
bunch of people out there way better
836
00:38:23,650 --> 00:38:24,530
gamers than I am.
837
00:38:24,610 --> 00:38:29,530
But this is going to allow you
to have less time setting up your
838
00:38:29,530 --> 00:38:33,240
basic kit, whatever it may be,
healing, tanking, DPSing.
839
00:38:33,240 --> 00:38:38,840
You get your basic kit up and
you really start, you know, down
840
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:43,080
that path of okay, my rotation
is really hitting hard.
841
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,520
It's looking good right now.
842
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,880
Now you will have a little bit
extra time to consider utilizing
843
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:55,160
situationally some of those
additional utility skills.
844
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:56,760
So I think this is a win.
845
00:38:57,230 --> 00:38:59,950
As easy as you want it to be,
as difficult as you want it to be.
846
00:39:00,350 --> 00:39:02,630
It's exciting, you know, and
it's hard.
847
00:39:02,630 --> 00:39:04,790
It can be a hard pill to
swallow for a lot of players.
848
00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:08,110
And I totally get it because
we're seeing, we're hearing about
849
00:39:08,190 --> 00:39:11,190
something before we're seeing
it, you know, before we're seeing
850
00:39:11,190 --> 00:39:12,030
it in action.
851
00:39:12,430 --> 00:39:15,470
And we're seeing, you know,
kind of the results of the labor,
852
00:39:15,790 --> 00:39:20,510
whether good or bad, or good
or bad, depending on the player you
853
00:39:20,510 --> 00:39:21,070
talk to.
854
00:39:21,550 --> 00:39:26,920
And as a result, it's really,
really important to those who are
855
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,480
in this right now when you are
in the Alpha.
856
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:31,640
So really give that feedback.
857
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,560
So like right now, the first
Alpha wave, they're rebuilding all
858
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:40,080
40 specs, all of them using
these design goals.
859
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,080
That's insane.
860
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:42,680
Insane.
861
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,840
And then they're going to be
doing level lock testing at first.
862
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,000
Hero and Apex talents are
going to be coming later.
863
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,800
Blizzard is, is looking for
feedback on how how well goals are
864
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,120
met for each spec, any
remaining clarity or visibility issues,
865
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,480
and whether builds feel
complete or various content types
866
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,960
so like Dungeons, Delves,
Raids, PvP, etc.
867
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,960
Overall, like this is kind of
the capstone on this thing.
868
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,680
Overall this is Blizzard's message.
869
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,280
Quote we want WOW to be a game
for everyone.
870
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,550
Whether you're new, returning
or chasing mythic world firsts.
871
00:40:15,870 --> 00:40:20,990
Midnight should make combat
clearer, fun and rewarding.
872
00:40:20,990 --> 00:40:21,790
End quote.
873
00:40:22,750 --> 00:40:23,630
That's what you want.
874
00:40:24,350 --> 00:40:28,230
That's what you want from a We
have seen a lot of MMOs come and
875
00:40:28,230 --> 00:40:28,510
go.
876
00:40:29,390 --> 00:40:29,990
Divines.
877
00:40:29,990 --> 00:40:30,829
No divines.
878
00:40:30,829 --> 00:40:31,470
I'm thinking yes.
879
00:40:31,470 --> 00:40:36,070
So Titans know we have covered
many of them, probably more than
880
00:40:36,070 --> 00:40:37,390
we should have realistically.
881
00:40:37,550 --> 00:40:39,950
And you've seen a lot of
niches come and go.
882
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:44,960
But when you can have a game
that aims to be for everyone, that
883
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:50,920
aims to give you the the
ability to play and also push to
884
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:55,520
master if you so choose to
have an easy game, easy kind of quote
885
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,360
unquote cozy we talk how we
discuss it here.
886
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,920
Cozy Warcraft experience or
you can be up there dripping with
887
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,200
sweat and taking dirt naps
with Jibs and Mythics.
888
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,700
This is exactly what where you
want to be, where you can make a
889
00:41:07,700 --> 00:41:12,460
game for everyone and players
can choose how invested, how difficult
890
00:41:12,460 --> 00:41:13,180
they want to make it.
891
00:41:13,180 --> 00:41:16,300
I'm decoding that entire
message you just said you're going
892
00:41:16,300 --> 00:41:18,420
to turn on the one button
rotation, aren't you and go into
893
00:41:18,420 --> 00:41:19,260
Mythics with us.
894
00:41:21,260 --> 00:41:25,140
I mean I may, I may not tell
you just for kicks and giggles.
895
00:41:25,140 --> 00:41:28,660
You know what man, I don't
disparage it at all because we've
896
00:41:28,660 --> 00:41:33,950
heard it even with our own,
with our own friends and I'm gonna
897
00:41:33,950 --> 00:41:37,550
shout him out here because
he's a good friend of ours and we've
898
00:41:37,550 --> 00:41:39,390
played games together for a
long time.
899
00:41:40,030 --> 00:41:43,710
Tested Weevil, our buddy
Tested Weevil.
900
00:41:44,830 --> 00:41:47,430
Don't ask me where he got his
name because I still don't know.
901
00:41:47,430 --> 00:41:49,390
I think he told the story one
time and I don't remember what it
902
00:41:49,390 --> 00:41:49,590
was.
903
00:41:49,590 --> 00:41:50,430
So sorry.
904
00:41:50,510 --> 00:41:52,070
I think of it like a badger
every time.
905
00:41:52,070 --> 00:41:54,030
I know has nothing to do with
it but that's where my head goes.
906
00:41:54,510 --> 00:41:55,070
He's.
907
00:41:55,070 --> 00:42:01,700
He's just this super kind
hearted gentleman and he's been a
908
00:42:01,700 --> 00:42:04,300
friend of ours for a long time
playing games for a long time and
909
00:42:04,300 --> 00:42:08,420
he's getting back into
Warcraft and he wants to run content
910
00:42:08,420 --> 00:42:13,940
with us but he's like super
hesitant at times and we convinced
911
00:42:13,940 --> 00:42:19,860
him turn on the one button
rotation and just have fun with us
912
00:42:20,180 --> 00:42:22,420
and then we're in the middle
of these dungeons.
913
00:42:23,140 --> 00:42:26,620
After some time, he's been
using this thing and his DPS is going
914
00:42:26,620 --> 00:42:26,940
up.
915
00:42:27,020 --> 00:42:28,180
He's having more fun.
916
00:42:28,180 --> 00:42:29,500
He's cracking jokes.
917
00:42:29,500 --> 00:42:31,140
He's not so nervous.
918
00:42:31,140 --> 00:42:35,340
He's not like freaking out
about his dps and he's just enjoying
919
00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:36,140
the game more.
920
00:42:36,220 --> 00:42:40,060
That's one story of one person
that we know.
921
00:42:40,140 --> 00:42:40,780
Oh, yeah.
922
00:42:40,940 --> 00:42:44,660
Where changes that Blizzard is
making to make the game more accessible
923
00:42:44,660 --> 00:42:47,660
for everybody is working.
924
00:42:47,820 --> 00:42:52,790
And even if you use that one
button rotation, to learn your class
925
00:42:53,190 --> 00:42:55,870
and then turn everything back
on when you're more comfortable with
926
00:42:55,870 --> 00:42:57,710
it, do it that way.
927
00:42:57,710 --> 00:42:59,030
If that's the way you want to
do it.
928
00:42:59,430 --> 00:43:00,390
You know, use.
929
00:43:00,550 --> 00:43:03,670
Use the rotation assist,
whatever it takes.
930
00:43:03,830 --> 00:43:05,350
These tools are there.
931
00:43:05,510 --> 00:43:07,990
You think of all the games
that are out there that don't have
932
00:43:07,990 --> 00:43:11,270
anything like this to make the
game more accessible for people.
933
00:43:11,670 --> 00:43:14,710
After 20 plus years, Blizzard is.
934
00:43:14,790 --> 00:43:20,320
They have the time, they have
the know how and they have the foresight
935
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,920
to be able to make this game
accessible for.
936
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,760
For more people at their level
at that time.
937
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:26,920
And I think it's.
938
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,240
I think it's a wonderful thing.
939
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,160
I'm in full support of this.
940
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,320
We don't know how the combat
changes are going to turn out.
941
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,440
We have not had enough
feedback for it yet.
942
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:37,360
But I have very high hopes.
943
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:38,800
On paper, this looks great.
944
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,680
On paper, I'm super stoked,
super excited.
945
00:43:42,150 --> 00:43:45,390
I can't wait to play that
thing to see how it.
946
00:43:45,390 --> 00:43:48,550
To see how it feels, to see
how it's turned out, to be able to
947
00:43:48,550 --> 00:43:51,030
give feedback whenever we can,
you know, that sort of thing.
948
00:43:51,190 --> 00:43:51,990
I love it.
949
00:43:52,070 --> 00:43:53,030
Super stoked.
950
00:43:53,350 --> 00:43:54,070
I love this.
951
00:43:54,550 --> 00:43:55,910
Pop quiz, hotshot.
952
00:43:56,390 --> 00:43:57,430
Is it gonna fly?
953
00:43:57,669 --> 00:43:58,990
Oh, wow, that's a low.
954
00:43:58,990 --> 00:43:59,830
That's not fair.
955
00:43:59,910 --> 00:44:00,870
It's not even out.
956
00:44:01,190 --> 00:44:02,510
Hang on, hang on.
957
00:44:02,510 --> 00:44:03,750
Neither was the other thing we did.
958
00:44:03,750 --> 00:44:04,870
Is it gonna fly?
959
00:44:06,150 --> 00:44:06,870
You know what?
960
00:44:07,110 --> 00:44:08,230
I'm not gonna answer.
961
00:44:08,830 --> 00:44:11,310
I want to know if the audience
thinks it's gonna fly.
962
00:44:11,790 --> 00:44:13,030
Yeah, I'll tell you.
963
00:44:13,030 --> 00:44:14,030
It's not gonna fly.
964
00:44:14,270 --> 00:44:15,790
The glare coming off your head.
965
00:44:16,270 --> 00:44:17,070
Can I do that?
966
00:44:17,070 --> 00:44:17,710
I'm doing it.
967
00:44:17,710 --> 00:44:18,910
That's what's gonna happen, folks.
968
00:44:19,310 --> 00:44:19,870
I want to hear.
969
00:44:19,870 --> 00:44:20,990
He asked me permission.
970
00:44:22,110 --> 00:44:23,070
Do whatever you want.
971
00:44:24,189 --> 00:44:26,550
Yes, folks, is this gonna fly?
972
00:44:26,550 --> 00:44:29,310
And if you know what that
means, then you know, you listen
973
00:44:29,310 --> 00:44:30,430
to episode number one.
974
00:44:30,430 --> 00:44:31,710
But anyway, let us know.
975
00:44:31,870 --> 00:44:33,510
Is the combat changes gonna fly?
976
00:44:33,510 --> 00:44:34,910
Let us know in the comments on Spotify.
977
00:44:34,910 --> 00:44:37,980
A lot of you are talking
there, even on YouTube as well.
978
00:44:38,460 --> 00:44:41,260
You know, let us know, dude.
979
00:44:41,260 --> 00:44:42,380
It's time for snark.
980
00:44:42,460 --> 00:44:46,060
Ooh, friends, we missed Snark.
981
00:44:46,060 --> 00:44:50,620
Last week we missed it very,
very badly because Snark is super
982
00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:51,020
fun.
983
00:44:51,500 --> 00:44:56,300
If you don't know, here at
Azeroth Morning Radio, our goblins
984
00:44:56,460 --> 00:44:58,060
have made an invention for us.
985
00:44:58,060 --> 00:45:01,780
We have a little contraption
that picks some topics for us to
986
00:45:01,780 --> 00:45:02,940
discuss throughout the week.
987
00:45:02,940 --> 00:45:06,100
So we got a new topic coming
up with Snark.
988
00:45:06,180 --> 00:45:10,260
It stands for the segment
navigator and randomizer Kiosk.
989
00:45:10,980 --> 00:45:12,260
Fired up boys.
990
00:45:19,140 --> 00:45:20,579
Snark online.
991
00:45:26,420 --> 00:45:28,900
All right, apparently that was
an Earthen or Tauren, depending on
992
00:45:28,900 --> 00:45:29,820
what episode you're listening to.
993
00:45:29,820 --> 00:45:32,380
Yeah, depending on whether or
not they visited the taco stand in
994
00:45:32,380 --> 00:45:32,910
Dornagal.
995
00:45:36,740 --> 00:45:39,220
I'd say a little more moist
after that taco stain.
996
00:45:40,020 --> 00:45:40,580
Okay.
997
00:45:40,580 --> 00:45:42,740
Sorry about that, Jibs.
998
00:45:42,740 --> 00:45:43,620
Why did it pop out?
999
00:45:43,620 --> 00:45:47,460
All right, so YouTube loot crate.
1000
00:45:49,460 --> 00:45:51,220
All right, so here's how we'll
do this.
1001
00:45:51,460 --> 00:45:54,540
We'll scour YouTube and find
an interesting World of Warcraft
1002
00:45:54,540 --> 00:45:59,060
related video, give credit to
the creator, and discuss the spoils.
1003
00:46:00,180 --> 00:46:00,820
Today is.
1004
00:46:02,340 --> 00:46:04,500
Luckily we prepared for this
before the show.
1005
00:46:07,700 --> 00:46:08,660
We're doing it live.
1006
00:46:08,820 --> 00:46:09,300
Yeah.
1007
00:46:09,620 --> 00:46:15,060
So, friends, I came across a
very cool video that was by Teddles
1008
00:46:15,139 --> 00:46:16,140
on YouTube.
1009
00:46:16,140 --> 00:46:18,900
And this video is entitled the
Seven Layer.
1010
00:46:19,140 --> 00:46:20,140
Seven Layer Dip.
1011
00:46:20,140 --> 00:46:20,900
Is that what it is?
1012
00:46:20,900 --> 00:46:21,860
Seven layer dip.
1013
00:46:24,020 --> 00:46:24,820
Hey, yeah.
1014
00:46:24,900 --> 00:46:26,260
Learn to read, baldy.
1015
00:46:26,260 --> 00:46:27,060
I was about to say.
1016
00:46:27,060 --> 00:46:27,360
Ready?
1017
00:46:27,590 --> 00:46:29,670
Redo take two.
1018
00:46:31,030 --> 00:46:34,150
Okay, now, teddles YouTube video.
1019
00:46:34,710 --> 00:46:36,710
Amazing video title.
1020
00:46:37,350 --> 00:46:40,470
The seven levels of world of
Warcraft players.
1021
00:46:41,350 --> 00:46:44,710
And I wanted to go through
this a little bit.
1022
00:46:45,270 --> 00:46:50,230
We're gonna fire through what,
what these levels are and try and
1023
00:46:50,230 --> 00:46:56,160
figure out where we land in
these different levels of World of
1024
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:57,040
Warcraft player.
1025
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,920
And yeah, be thinking
listeners, where, where you're at
1026
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:01,320
as well as we, as we go
through these.
1027
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,160
I got a feeling we're gonna be
a blend of some of these.
1028
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,760
But yeah, I think I'm.
1029
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,800
I think I'm pretty solid on
one of these.
1030
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:08,720
On one of these levels.
1031
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:10,480
But anyway, let's go through this.
1032
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:11,920
This video is.
1033
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:17,960
Is really fun and I think it's
incredibly accurate, to be honest
1034
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:18,360
with you.
1035
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,790
So anyway, it starts from
level one, goes all the way to level
1036
00:47:21,790 --> 00:47:28,710
seven, and it basically
details player activity and why they
1037
00:47:28,710 --> 00:47:31,110
would be put into these
different levels of players.
1038
00:47:31,190 --> 00:47:34,630
So level one and you got to be
paying attention because you got
1039
00:47:34,630 --> 00:47:35,830
to level yourself, bro.
1040
00:47:36,070 --> 00:47:39,590
I need this because there's,
there's a test at the end of this.
1041
00:47:41,430 --> 00:47:41,990
Okay.
1042
00:47:41,990 --> 00:47:46,070
Level one, according to
Teddles is the tourist or the explorer.
1043
00:47:46,070 --> 00:47:51,580
Now this is a casual player
logs in, wanders around, catches
1044
00:47:51,580 --> 00:47:54,580
some, a little bit of lore,
maybe does some low level dungeons
1045
00:47:54,580 --> 00:47:55,700
and some quest Lines.
1046
00:47:55,940 --> 00:47:58,500
So basically playing for like story.
1047
00:47:58,820 --> 00:48:00,660
Ooh, this is a really pretty area.
1048
00:48:01,540 --> 00:48:06,340
Some social stuff and is like
challenge or pressure.
1049
00:48:06,420 --> 00:48:07,620
Nah, not for me.
1050
00:48:07,620 --> 00:48:08,500
That's level one.
1051
00:48:08,660 --> 00:48:09,220
Okay.
1052
00:48:09,940 --> 00:48:10,740
Level two.
1053
00:48:10,740 --> 00:48:13,590
This is the casual, the true
casual or social player.
1054
00:48:14,140 --> 00:48:15,860
A little bit more frequent
play than Level 1.
1055
00:48:15,860 --> 00:48:19,580
They participate in social
content, so things like pet battles,
1056
00:48:20,060 --> 00:48:21,580
achievements, world events.
1057
00:48:21,740 --> 00:48:24,180
But they don't really stress
about optimization of their.
1058
00:48:24,180 --> 00:48:24,820
Of their character.
1059
00:48:24,820 --> 00:48:26,060
They don't care what their eye
level is.
1060
00:48:26,060 --> 00:48:26,500
Okay?
1061
00:48:26,500 --> 00:48:26,860
They're just.
1062
00:48:26,860 --> 00:48:27,820
They're playing to have fun.
1063
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:29,020
Then there's level three.
1064
00:48:29,020 --> 00:48:31,980
This is the quote unquote
normal player.
1065
00:48:32,620 --> 00:48:35,900
These players are keeping up
with the expansion, doing dungeons
1066
00:48:36,700 --> 00:48:38,300
raiding at a moderate level.
1067
00:48:38,300 --> 00:48:41,940
Maybe they're doing some lfr,
maybe they're dabbling in some heroic.
1068
00:48:42,820 --> 00:48:47,220
They're digging into gearing
and they're looking up guides like
1069
00:48:47,220 --> 00:48:48,900
Zygor is their friend, right?
1070
00:48:48,980 --> 00:48:50,180
Wowhead is their friend.
1071
00:48:50,820 --> 00:48:51,940
So they want to keep up.
1072
00:48:52,340 --> 00:48:56,620
They like the challenge, but
maybe not have the time or the inkling
1073
00:48:56,620 --> 00:48:59,220
to push too, too hard.
1074
00:49:00,260 --> 00:49:01,140
That's level three.
1075
00:49:01,780 --> 00:49:05,940
Level four, the optimizer and
theory crafter.
1076
00:49:06,340 --> 00:49:10,160
Now these are the people that
pay very close attention to numbers.
1077
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,160
They might have a spreadsheet
or two.
1078
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:13,680
They like stats.
1079
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,360
They're looking at builds.
1080
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,240
They're looking at best
rotations and practicing them.
1081
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:23,120
They're looking at Sims logs,
aiming to play well, aiming to play
1082
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:29,440
efficiently, caring about
pushing dps like they are looking
1083
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:31,360
at those numbers.
1084
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,800
I don't know if you're aware
of this, but there is a neon arrow
1085
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,160
that has appeared above you
and is flashing down upon you right
1086
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:38,440
now.
1087
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,240
You don't know whether or not
that's me.
1088
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:43,520
You don't know Jon nothing.
1089
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:44,280
Jon Snow.
1090
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:45,320
She is.
1091
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:48,040
Okay.
1092
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:48,920
You might be right.
1093
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,080
Okay, Level five.
1094
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,080
All right, get into the
serious here.
1095
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:55,800
We're definitely out of the casual.
1096
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,240
This is the competitive or the
flagship player.
1097
00:49:59,730 --> 00:50:01,930
Now, these players are doing
high level content, right?
1098
00:50:01,930 --> 00:50:04,130
They're pushing mystic, mythic plush.
1099
00:50:05,250 --> 00:50:07,010
Wow, wow.
1100
00:50:08,850 --> 00:50:11,010
Let me remove whatever's in my mouth.
1101
00:50:12,770 --> 00:50:14,530
They are pushing high keys.
1102
00:50:14,850 --> 00:50:16,810
They may be the top in logs.
1103
00:50:16,810 --> 00:50:19,170
They're striving for the
highest rankings they can get.
1104
00:50:19,490 --> 00:50:24,290
They are motivated by
competition, performance, mastery.
1105
00:50:25,100 --> 00:50:27,100
That's level five, the
competitive player.
1106
00:50:28,300 --> 00:50:29,740
Now here's level six.
1107
00:50:30,460 --> 00:50:33,420
Okay, Starting to get freaking
super scary.
1108
00:50:33,740 --> 00:50:34,780
Yeah, no kidding.
1109
00:50:34,940 --> 00:50:38,540
These are among some of the
most elite players at level six.
1110
00:50:38,540 --> 00:50:41,340
These are the Raiders, the
world first aspirants.
1111
00:50:41,660 --> 00:50:42,220
Okay.
1112
00:50:42,700 --> 00:50:44,700
Their focus is on endgame raids.
1113
00:50:45,660 --> 00:50:50,260
All they're doing throughout
the week is making sure their characters
1114
00:50:50,260 --> 00:50:50,780
are ready.
1115
00:50:51,420 --> 00:50:53,580
They're farming stuff for crafting.
1116
00:50:53,900 --> 00:50:58,300
They're crafting the best
possible potions and foods for their
1117
00:50:58,300 --> 00:50:58,860
guilds.
1118
00:50:59,660 --> 00:51:02,460
Their focus is on world progression.
1119
00:51:02,940 --> 00:51:07,020
Being in a top guild, which
that is difficult to do.
1120
00:51:07,020 --> 00:51:13,780
Friends, if you've ever raided
at top levels, there are some serious
1121
00:51:13,780 --> 00:51:15,820
parameters to get into some of
these guilds.
1122
00:51:15,980 --> 00:51:20,310
But these level six world
first aspirants are looking for cutting
1123
00:51:20,310 --> 00:51:21,110
edge strategies.
1124
00:51:21,190 --> 00:51:21,830
Okay.
1125
00:51:22,070 --> 00:51:23,670
Their time investment is high.
1126
00:51:24,230 --> 00:51:29,070
They're focused on
optimization and all facets of mechanics
1127
00:51:29,070 --> 00:51:33,270
of the game, their gear and
group synergy, which is super important,
1128
00:51:33,350 --> 00:51:34,870
which is practice, practice, practice.
1129
00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:35,830
Okay.
1130
00:51:36,470 --> 00:51:41,030
Finally at level seven, neck bearders.
1131
00:51:41,590 --> 00:51:42,630
That's all it says.
1132
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:44,720
I'm just kidding.
1133
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:46,240
So.
1134
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:51,040
So this is the point 1% that
is probably not listening to Azeroth
1135
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,920
morning radio right now
because they're too busy trying to
1136
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:55,920
perfect their stuff.
1137
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:58,120
The 0.1%.
1138
00:51:58,120 --> 00:51:59,920
This is called the Beast or
the Perfectionist.
1139
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:01,920
Absolutely pushing the limits.
1140
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:06,240
Every millisecond, every
mechanic, every point one, every
1141
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,000
piece of gear is optimized.
1142
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:09,840
They live and breathe.
1143
00:52:10,670 --> 00:52:10,990
Wow.
1144
00:52:11,710 --> 00:52:12,110
They.
1145
00:52:12,110 --> 00:52:14,430
This might may or may not be
their full time job.
1146
00:52:14,990 --> 00:52:15,390
Right.
1147
00:52:15,870 --> 00:52:18,030
The game is central to these
people's identity.
1148
00:52:18,590 --> 00:52:21,950
They're testing theory,
they're pushing new tactics, they're
1149
00:52:21,950 --> 00:52:23,950
breaking the meta.
1150
00:52:24,590 --> 00:52:25,070
It's.
1151
00:52:25,150 --> 00:52:29,030
It's a pretty far cry from the
tourist or the explorer.
1152
00:52:29,030 --> 00:52:30,990
Yeah, absolutely right.
1153
00:52:31,150 --> 00:52:33,150
And again, it shows the range
of this game.
1154
00:52:33,870 --> 00:52:34,350
Yes.
1155
00:52:34,350 --> 00:52:34,870
Thank you.
1156
00:52:34,870 --> 00:52:35,390
Yep.
1157
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:36,040
Yep.
1158
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:36,920
Are you gonna go there?
1159
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:38,600
That's exactly where I was
gonna go.
1160
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:39,080
Yeah.
1161
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,200
It's the beauty of this game
is you can be anything.
1162
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,000
Anything from level one to
level seven.
1163
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:45,960
Anything in between.
1164
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:47,720
You can be a mix of all those things.
1165
00:52:47,720 --> 00:52:48,600
Oh, sweetheart.
1166
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,040
You could do anything you want
in your life.
1167
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:51,240
Just put your mind to it.
1168
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,200
I want to be the tourist.
1169
00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,200
When you compare it to the
Beast, I want to be the tourist.
1170
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:00,560
So.
1171
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,690
Okay, so there it is.
1172
00:53:03,090 --> 00:53:03,450
We.
1173
00:53:03,450 --> 00:53:05,090
We've laid down the gauntlet.
1174
00:53:06,450 --> 00:53:07,970
I think you already did it.
1175
00:53:08,290 --> 00:53:12,930
But I want you to tell me
where I'm at.
1176
00:53:13,730 --> 00:53:16,690
You are absolutely, without a doubt.
1177
00:53:17,490 --> 00:53:19,570
Now I will preface this with
saying this.
1178
00:53:19,970 --> 00:53:23,490
You can be any one of these
depending on the day and the time.
1179
00:53:23,650 --> 00:53:24,490
I don't think.
1180
00:53:24,490 --> 00:53:27,990
And I'm thinking for speaking
to you specifically, I don't believe
1181
00:53:27,990 --> 00:53:29,750
you ever go above level five.
1182
00:53:30,230 --> 00:53:33,070
I don't believe that you're
ever above the competitive slash
1183
00:53:33,070 --> 00:53:35,630
flagship player like the
raider world first aspirant.
1184
00:53:35,630 --> 00:53:36,190
Like, that's not you.
1185
00:53:36,190 --> 00:53:36,870
The 0.1%.
1186
00:53:36,870 --> 00:53:37,510
That's not you.
1187
00:53:37,510 --> 00:53:40,790
I feel like up to level five
is, is where you're at.
1188
00:53:40,950 --> 00:53:44,430
You can be any one of those
under that.
1189
00:53:44,430 --> 00:53:48,270
So you could be the Taurus,
the casual, the, the casual social
1190
00:53:48,270 --> 00:53:51,350
player, the norm, quote
unquote, normal player, the optimizer.
1191
00:53:51,510 --> 00:53:52,920
You're very much an optimizer.
1192
00:53:53,230 --> 00:53:54,430
That is 100% you.
1193
00:53:54,430 --> 00:53:58,350
However, you can be any of the
other things up to level five, depending
1194
00:53:58,350 --> 00:53:58,910
on the day.
1195
00:53:58,990 --> 00:53:59,390
Right.
1196
00:53:59,710 --> 00:54:04,990
But if I had to pick one, if
I'm forcing myself to pick one.
1197
00:54:06,030 --> 00:54:09,630
You are absolutely a level 4
optimizer slash theory crafter.
1198
00:54:10,030 --> 00:54:14,830
You are very passionate and
this is specifically taken a more
1199
00:54:14,830 --> 00:54:19,320
intense turn here within the
last several weeks due to your intense
1200
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,640
desire to master your class.
1201
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,000
Especially after finding
Ragnon's videos and really putting
1202
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:25,720
them into practice.
1203
00:54:25,720 --> 00:54:30,280
I watched your healing change
after you watch those videos.
1204
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:35,360
You are without a doubt a
level four optimizer, theory crafter.
1205
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:35,960
Okay.
1206
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:42,360
And I, I 100% believe that
that's where you're at is level four.
1207
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:43,480
That's where I'm at.
1208
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:44,040
Yeah.
1209
00:54:45,020 --> 00:54:45,260
Really?
1210
00:54:45,420 --> 00:54:45,980
Yep.
1211
00:54:46,140 --> 00:54:48,060
That's what, that's where I
feel you're at.
1212
00:54:48,380 --> 00:54:54,420
You may dabble in level three,
which is the normal player, but I
1213
00:54:54,420 --> 00:54:54,780
think.
1214
00:54:55,100 --> 00:55:00,259
And maybe it's, maybe it's due
to time constraints, but I 100% think
1215
00:55:00,259 --> 00:55:00,860
that you're.
1216
00:55:01,180 --> 00:55:02,140
You're level four.
1217
00:55:02,140 --> 00:55:02,540
Really?
1218
00:55:02,540 --> 00:55:02,980
Huh.
1219
00:55:02,980 --> 00:55:08,860
And, and may maybe if it's not
necessarily paying super close attention
1220
00:55:08,860 --> 00:55:11,920
to numbers and stats and
builds and rotations and stuff like
1221
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:17,080
that in PvE, you are most
definitely doing it in PvP.
1222
00:55:19,240 --> 00:55:20,360
And you're good at it.
1223
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:21,560
Oh, thank you.
1224
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,320
Yeah, I, I think, I think
that's where we're at.
1225
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:28,040
And honestly, like for our
show, I don't know, maybe we're a
1226
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:28,240
little.
1227
00:55:28,240 --> 00:55:30,520
Maybe we out leveled our own
show a little bit.
1228
00:55:31,720 --> 00:55:33,800
Maybe we should be a three or
a two.
1229
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,680
I honestly though, I re.
1230
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,280
I've really firmly blown this.
1231
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,800
Like if I don't have a ton of
time, I may be a level three or a
1232
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:42,960
level one that night.
1233
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:44,800
You know, I'll tell you this.
1234
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:48,080
If I have a whole day of
gameplay that I.
1235
00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:49,480
You're seven, you're a seven.
1236
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:54,160
Then if I know the max, I
personally feel like ever go is a
1237
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:54,480
five.
1238
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:56,880
And that is strictly.
1239
00:55:58,240 --> 00:56:00,960
Unless until I can get
comfortable in like the higher end
1240
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:01,920
PvE stuff.
1241
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:02,640
Strictly.
1242
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:07,240
That's PvP for me because I
know the system, I've been in it
1243
00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:09,160
for so long and I'm just trying.
1244
00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:10,840
I'm very goal oriented.
1245
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:12,360
That's just how I am.
1246
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,280
And I'm just trying
desperately to get the freaking elite
1247
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:16,000
Transmog.
1248
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:17,400
And I'm so close to my rating.
1249
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,400
I'm like 500 rating and I'll
have It.
1250
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:21,840
And so I'm just trying to
knock that thing out.
1251
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:22,840
If I have a full Saturday.
1252
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,720
If you have a full Saturday,
dude, you're, like.
1253
00:56:24,720 --> 00:56:27,280
You're, like, yelling,
screaming, and looking up stats and
1254
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:27,720
putting.
1255
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:28,280
Freaking.
1256
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,480
Putting in applications and,
like, I have a Saturday off.
1257
00:56:31,820 --> 00:56:33,020
Let me into method.
1258
00:56:33,740 --> 00:56:34,700
Let's do this.
1259
00:56:35,260 --> 00:56:36,300
Let's do this.
1260
00:56:36,940 --> 00:56:39,460
Oh, you know, one thing I
really, honestly, though, one thing
1261
00:56:39,460 --> 00:56:43,580
I would love to get more into
into generally is I love.
1262
00:56:44,140 --> 00:56:46,460
I genuinely love the pacing of raids.
1263
00:56:46,860 --> 00:56:49,980
I love the pace of Raids
versus Mythics.
1264
00:56:50,460 --> 00:56:52,940
It's like, there's a certain
level of.
1265
00:56:53,340 --> 00:56:57,620
And I'm not talking, like, you
know, like, mythics or anything crazy.
1266
00:56:57,620 --> 00:56:59,290
I'm just, like, on a normal raid.
1267
00:56:59,610 --> 00:57:01,050
I love that pace, bro.
1268
00:57:01,290 --> 00:57:02,010
That's fun.
1269
00:57:02,090 --> 00:57:03,170
That's chill fun.
1270
00:57:03,170 --> 00:57:06,010
But would you like the pace of
mythic raids?
1271
00:57:06,330 --> 00:57:12,130
I don't know that that is in
the cards ever, but, I mean, let's
1272
00:57:12,130 --> 00:57:12,490
be honest.
1273
00:57:12,490 --> 00:57:14,090
We're Cusho for the 99%.
1274
00:57:14,410 --> 00:57:16,250
I fall in that 99%.
1275
00:57:16,730 --> 00:57:18,010
I don't think that.
1276
00:57:18,010 --> 00:57:19,690
I mean, I would love to see it.
1277
00:57:19,850 --> 00:57:21,370
I think that that would be exciting.
1278
00:57:21,850 --> 00:57:24,140
Now could I achieve that
thing, bro?
1279
00:57:24,140 --> 00:57:28,580
Right now, I lead our mythic
team in dirt naps, so I don't know
1280
00:57:29,060 --> 00:57:29,460
that.
1281
00:57:30,580 --> 00:57:31,420
And it's okay.
1282
00:57:31,420 --> 00:57:33,100
I mean, like, I think that is.
1283
00:57:33,100 --> 00:57:36,180
I think where we're at with
the game is okay.
1284
00:57:36,180 --> 00:57:39,700
And I think the folks out
there need to know that wherever
1285
00:57:40,580 --> 00:57:47,460
you land on this list, level
one through seven, that is okay.
1286
00:57:47,780 --> 00:57:48,340
That's right.
1287
00:57:48,660 --> 00:57:52,820
Play the damn game and play it
your way and enjoy it.
1288
00:57:52,820 --> 00:57:57,050
And if anybody has a problem
with it, find another group of friends.
1289
00:57:57,530 --> 00:57:58,130
That's right.
1290
00:57:58,130 --> 00:57:59,050
Come game with us.
1291
00:57:59,210 --> 00:58:00,410
Yeah, come get with us.
1292
00:58:00,410 --> 00:58:04,290
Like, just enjoy the way that
you're playing the game.
1293
00:58:04,290 --> 00:58:07,930
And, like, I'll freely admit
I've never done a mythic raid.
1294
00:58:08,650 --> 00:58:10,010
I only.
1295
00:58:10,090 --> 00:58:13,130
I've only dabbled in heroic raid.
1296
00:58:13,690 --> 00:58:14,090
Right?
1297
00:58:14,410 --> 00:58:16,130
Geez, man, that's something else.
1298
00:58:16,130 --> 00:58:18,890
I can crush the hell out of
some heroic dungeons.
1299
00:58:20,090 --> 00:58:21,690
They're super easy.
1300
00:58:21,850 --> 00:58:22,250
Yeah.
1301
00:58:22,250 --> 00:58:25,320
We finish the dungeons and
we're like, yeah, suck it.
1302
00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:26,520
You had that coming.
1303
00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:28,120
Suck it, Trebek.
1304
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:30,840
Yeah, totally.
1305
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:32,600
But, like, I mean, that's.
1306
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,160
Look, we have a World of
Warcraft podcast, And, like, that's
1307
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:39,640
100% honesty that I've never
stepped foot in a mythic raid.
1308
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:44,760
I'm terrified to step foot in
a mythic raid because I haven't cleared
1309
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:46,280
all those same things on heroic.
1310
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:48,280
I've just dabbled in heroic raids.
1311
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:51,640
So over time, and as we get.
1312
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,520
I mean, I think you and I are
Both with, you know, with this podcast
1313
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:59,240
and with our, with our
investment in, in Warcraft, this
1314
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,840
latest round, like we're 100
all in, having a blast.
1315
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,320
So I have no doubt that we're
going to push those things here in,
1316
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:06,840
in the future, probably in the
near future.
1317
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,920
But, you know, as for right
now, like, I've played this game
1318
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,000
since launch.
1319
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:18,980
I was playing EverQuest 2 and
really enjoying EverQuest 2 and this
1320
00:59:19,140 --> 00:59:23,500
thing called World of Warcraft
came out and was getting rave reviews
1321
00:59:23,500 --> 00:59:24,820
and I was like, man, I'll give
it a try.
1322
00:59:25,220 --> 00:59:29,220
Canceled my Everquest 2
subscription that week.
1323
00:59:29,300 --> 00:59:30,100
It was done.
1324
00:59:30,340 --> 00:59:32,579
I was like, nope, I'm playing
this Warcraft thing.
1325
00:59:33,140 --> 00:59:36,620
So ever since then it's been
back and forth, back and forth, back
1326
00:59:36,620 --> 00:59:40,860
and forth to World of Warcraft
and a bunch of other MMOs until now.
1327
00:59:40,860 --> 00:59:45,530
We finally realize that this
game has, for the most part always
1328
00:59:45,690 --> 00:59:47,970
had every feature we're
looking for in an mmo.
1329
00:59:47,970 --> 00:59:49,930
And that's why we landed back here.
1330
00:59:49,930 --> 00:59:52,930
So, like, our seriousness for
Warcraft is through the roof right
1331
00:59:52,930 --> 00:59:53,210
now.
1332
00:59:53,530 --> 00:59:54,010
Yeah.
1333
00:59:54,330 --> 00:59:54,690
Yeah.
1334
00:59:54,690 --> 00:59:58,130
You know, probably my favorite
thing right now and probably has
1335
00:59:58,130 --> 01:00:00,810
been for years, and I probably
just didn't realize it.
1336
01:00:00,810 --> 01:00:04,410
Part of my all time favorite
thing in this game is collecting.
1337
01:00:05,050 --> 01:00:10,320
Whether it's transmogs or
mounts or toys.
1338
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,200
Or dirt from right next to
your face when you're on the ground
1339
01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:14,440
or.
1340
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:18,000
The soil from the mythic floors.
1341
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,120
Look at, I have soil from
Elwyn Forest.
1342
01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:22,960
I'm gonna put it in this jar
and keep it.
1343
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:24,400
I'll out myself.
1344
01:00:24,639 --> 01:00:30,560
I absolutely came to last
Sunday's mythic rounds.
1345
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,680
Forgot to swap out of my PvP spec.
1346
01:00:34,650 --> 01:00:39,610
Didn't have a cleanse on and
they, they get, they ribbed me good.
1347
01:00:39,610 --> 01:00:41,290
And I earned it, every bit of it.
1348
01:00:41,370 --> 01:00:43,970
And of course then I was
taking dirt naps and I pulled like
1349
01:00:43,970 --> 01:00:46,650
the whole first half of
Operation Floodgate.
1350
01:00:46,730 --> 01:00:47,570
You might as well.
1351
01:00:47,570 --> 01:00:51,370
If you had like a this is a
crap show moment that would.
1352
01:00:51,370 --> 01:00:52,330
That was that for me.
1353
01:00:52,330 --> 01:00:53,850
It was that that day.
1354
01:00:53,850 --> 01:00:57,450
But here's the beauty of the
group that we've chosen to play with.
1355
01:00:57,610 --> 01:00:59,130
Here's the beauty of it, right?
1356
01:01:00,100 --> 01:01:00,340
Higher.
1357
01:01:00,740 --> 01:01:02,180
The folks we were running with.
1358
01:01:02,820 --> 01:01:04,220
And I'm gonna shout them out.
1359
01:01:04,220 --> 01:01:06,980
Caribou and Lunchbox and
Stark, of course, you know.
1360
01:01:07,700 --> 01:01:08,180
Yeah.
1361
01:01:08,260 --> 01:01:09,140
And Stark.
1362
01:01:10,340 --> 01:01:11,300
Higher level players.
1363
01:01:11,380 --> 01:01:12,820
100 higher level players.
1364
01:01:13,460 --> 01:01:13,860
Yeah.
1365
01:01:13,860 --> 01:01:16,700
Not a single time did anybody
say anything right?
1366
01:01:16,700 --> 01:01:18,260
No other, other than some.
1367
01:01:18,420 --> 01:01:20,740
Other than some fun ribbing.
1368
01:01:20,980 --> 01:01:21,340
Yeah.
1369
01:01:21,340 --> 01:01:22,180
Locker room ribbing.
1370
01:01:22,180 --> 01:01:22,460
That's.
1371
01:01:22,460 --> 01:01:23,060
That's it.
1372
01:01:23,140 --> 01:01:29,880
Jibs outed himself on both the
no cleanse, which if there's anybody
1373
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:32,720
that's gonna notice we don't
have a cleanse, it's pretty much
1374
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:33,360
me first.
1375
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,600
I'm gonna notice it real quick.
1376
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:36,960
I didn't have it.
1377
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:37,720
Oh, cleanse.
1378
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:38,760
It was so embarrassing.
1379
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:39,520
Cleanse.
1380
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,720
Please, for the love of God,
cleanse yourself.
1381
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:45,920
And the other thing was, he was.
1382
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:46,840
He just said it.
1383
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:47,520
He was just like.
1384
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,120
I really didn't want to admit
in front of you guys, but I had my
1385
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:51,520
PVP's back on the whole.
1386
01:01:53,340 --> 01:01:54,700
It was just laughter, right?
1387
01:01:54,700 --> 01:01:55,060
Just.
1388
01:01:55,060 --> 01:01:56,660
Just fun laughter.
1389
01:01:56,660 --> 01:02:00,380
And that's the beauty of
finding out what level you're at
1390
01:02:00,540 --> 01:02:00,900
in.
1391
01:02:00,900 --> 01:02:01,580
In this.
1392
01:02:02,140 --> 01:02:07,660
In this list, and then
adjoining yourself, surrounding yourself
1393
01:02:07,980 --> 01:02:11,020
with players that are of the
same mindset.
1394
01:02:11,180 --> 01:02:14,020
And, you know, there could be
a fluctuation of, you know, two or
1395
01:02:14,020 --> 01:02:16,860
three up or two or three down,
and nobody cares.
1396
01:02:17,100 --> 01:02:17,940
And I think that's.
1397
01:02:17,940 --> 01:02:21,540
That's a beautiful thing about
finding in the right community for
1398
01:02:21,540 --> 01:02:21,820
you.
1399
01:02:21,820 --> 01:02:25,860
But that's why I love this
list so much, because it.
1400
01:02:26,100 --> 01:02:28,820
It doesn't cement you where
you are, but you're kind of like,
1401
01:02:28,820 --> 01:02:30,220
yeah, yeah, yeah, that's.
1402
01:02:30,220 --> 01:02:30,660
That's.
1403
01:02:30,660 --> 01:02:32,140
I'm a level four, for sure.
1404
01:02:32,140 --> 01:02:32,780
Yeah, yeah.
1405
01:02:32,780 --> 01:02:35,579
You know, as much as you don't
want to admit it, I would feel worse
1406
01:02:35,579 --> 01:02:41,940
admitting that I was a level
7, which I know me, if I was.
1407
01:02:41,940 --> 01:02:47,180
If I was a level 7, if I was a
0.1% just complete beast in this
1408
01:02:47,180 --> 01:02:52,540
game, something else in my
life is suffering, Something else
1409
01:02:52,780 --> 01:02:59,740
somewhere is dying miserable
death, and it hasn't been touched,
1410
01:03:00,140 --> 01:03:05,340
watered, hugged, loved,
nurtured in several months.
1411
01:03:06,940 --> 01:03:07,580
I just.
1412
01:03:07,820 --> 01:03:10,700
I. I'm not at the point in my
life where I can do that.
1413
01:03:10,940 --> 01:03:12,710
You know, I probably won't
never be.
1414
01:03:13,270 --> 01:03:17,350
But anyway, I thought it was
fun to go through this.
1415
01:03:17,430 --> 01:03:20,270
Luckily, Snark picked the
right thing for us this week because
1416
01:03:20,270 --> 01:03:22,310
this was a really fun one, folks.
1417
01:03:22,310 --> 01:03:28,550
If you have not checked out
the video, Teddles is actually really
1418
01:03:28,630 --> 01:03:29,190
funny.
1419
01:03:29,430 --> 01:03:32,070
And the video is very, very
well done.
1420
01:03:32,070 --> 01:03:34,630
So look up this video on YouTube.
1421
01:03:34,790 --> 01:03:39,280
The seven levels of world of
Warcraft players buy Teddles.
1422
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:39,840
Thank you.
1423
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:40,320
That's right.
1424
01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:41,160
That's right.
1425
01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:41,400
Yes.
1426
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:42,080

01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:49,840
show.
1430
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:50,560
Be right back.
1431
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:54,880
I'm okay.
1432
01:03:55,600 --> 01:04:00,160
Has your dungeon been ruined
by a faulty Norman Lodger 5000?
1433
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:03,800
Why am I seven feet tall?
1434
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:08,820
And on four, you may be
entitled to an early retirement size
1435

They said I'd stand for tall
in my next raid.
1443
01:04:31,790 --> 01:04:32,990
But not like this.
1444
01:04:36,510 --> 01:04:38,590

Cash and Jibs here wanted you

We're putting together
something special to showcase our

01:05:32,980 --> 01:05:35,980
amazing community right here
on the show itself.
1463
01:05:36,140 --> 01:05:40,020
All you need to do is record a
short voice clip of yourself saying
1464
01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:42,060
this line and make it your own.
1465
01:05:42,380 --> 01:05:47,220
Hi, I'm your character name
and when I'm not in something funny,
1466
01:05:47,220 --> 01:05:51,580
personal or totally chaotic,
I'm listening to Azeroth Morning
1467
01:05:51,580 --> 01:05:52,140
Radio.
1468
01:05:52,220 --> 01:05:53,420
Here's a few examples.
1469
01:05:53,970 --> 01:05:58,330
Hi, I'm Leaf Spinner and when
I'm not falling off zeppelins, I'm
1470
01:05:58,330 --> 01:06:00,290
listening to Azeroth Morning Radio.
1471
01:06:00,690 --> 01:06:02,450
Hi, I'm Leaf Spinner.
1472
01:06:02,450 --> 01:06:06,450
When I'm not raiding at 3am,
I'm listening to Azeroth Morning
1473
01:06:06,450 --> 01:06:07,010

own voice on the show.
1484
01:06:32,730 --> 01:06:37,090
Because let's be real,
Azeroth's always better when we can

Couple things.
1496
01:07:10,270 --> 01:07:11,670
Number one, leave us a review.
1497
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:15,560
Whatever podcast app you're
using, it genuinely helps us.
1498
01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:18,720
Most of our listeners,
they're, I mean they're across the
1499
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:22,200
board on apps everywhere but
the majority are hanging out on YouTube,
1500
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,080
Spotify and Apple podcasts.
1501
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:26,720
So if you're on any of those,
if you could leave us a review that
1502
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,520
greatly helps the show but
also the thing that we really care
1503
01:07:29,520 --> 01:07:32,800
about more than a review, tell
a friend about the show.
1504
01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:36,760
It really helps the show grow
and honestly we want more people

Jibs, you had something to say
here that you're you're typing to
1523
01:08:33,990 --> 01:08:35,350
me as we're doing this.
1524
01:08:35,350 --> 01:08:36,350
I don't ad lib.
1525
01:08:36,430 --> 01:08:39,230
I don't read everything that
is on the teleprompter.
1526
01:08:39,310 --> 01:08:45,190
I do do to my own own shame
folks, if you see something amazing
1527
01:08:45,190 --> 01:08:48,070
in Azeroth, maybe if there's
some kind of initiative going on
1528
01:08:48,070 --> 01:08:51,830
to help a community member or
you know, something wholesome, maybe
1529
01:08:51,830 --> 01:08:56,080
it's, you know, you and your
wife played the game together for
1530
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:56,720
the first time.
1531
01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,000
You and she's your ex wife
other no.
1532
01:08:59,960 --> 01:09:01,560
And you mistakenly took her
into a.
1533
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:03,080
Mythic we're not doing divorces.
1534
01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,800
Oh that last commercial with
the lawyers may be able to help you
1535
01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:08,040
there.
1536
01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:12,240
But anyway, if you see
something, please send it to us.
1537
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:13,840
We'll cover on the heroes call board.
1538
01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:15,320
This community means
everything to us.
1539
01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:16,520
You mean everything to us.
1540
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:17,480
Thank you so much.
1541
01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:20,040
Last but not least, I want to
give a big shout out.
1542
01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:22,480
I know we did last week in a
big way, but we're going to give
1543
01:09:22,480 --> 01:09:23,600
a shout out to our guild.
1544
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,440
Pulling aggro IRL friends.
1545
01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:27,560
Great group of people.
1546
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:30,040
Built on good vibes, built on
low pressure.
1547
01:09:30,040 --> 01:09:32,280
Built on your life comes first.
1548
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:37,240
This guild was made for
adults, professionals, parents, players.
1549
01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:40,520
And if you'd like to come over
and join us over there.
1550
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:45,890
Absolutely welcoming group of
folks with a bunch of creatures attitudes.
1551
01:09:45,970 --> 01:09:47,330
So come on over there and join us.
1552
01:09:47,330 --> 01:09:51,330
You can find them in the guild
Finder in game.
1553
01:09:51,490 --> 01:09:53,530
Folks, thank you so much for
tuning in.
1554
01:09:53,530 --> 01:09:53,970
We love you.
1555
01:09:53,970 --> 01:09:55,650
Have a wonderful week in gaming.
1556
01:09:55,810 --> 01:09:58,330
May your crits ever be in your favor.
1557
01:09:58,330 --> 01:09:59,210
Take care everybody.
1558
01:09:59,210 --> 01:10:02,770
And we think we found out what
Brawn was up to the whole time.
1559
01:10:02,850 --> 01:10:04,210
Found a bit of gold.
1560
01:10:04,450 --> 01:10:05,210
It's true.
1561
01:10:05,210 --> 01:10:07,010
Maybe that'll come out in a
future episode.
1562
01:10:07,090 --> 01:10:07,650
Yep.
1563
01:10:07,810 --> 01:10:08,610
Look for it.
1564
01:10:12,370 --> 01:10:13,170
Job's done.
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,720
I have witnessed this battle before.
2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,600
They who would stop at nothing
to destroy our world.
3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:13,280
And the heroes who would
sacrifice everything to save it.
4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,720
This is the timeline, you know.
5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,880
But the past, like the future,
is never etched in stone.
6
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,640
You are not hero.
7
00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:43,020
Good morning, Azeroth,
broadcasting live from the trade
8
00:00:43,100 --> 00:00:44,460
district of Stormwind.
9
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:51,020
Hey, who rerouted our cane
relay through the coffee pot again?
10
00:00:52,220 --> 00:00:53,180
Coffee's done.
11
00:00:54,540 --> 00:00:57,420
Hang on, I think we got it.
12
00:01:00,380 --> 00:01:03,180
This is Azeroth Morning Radio.
13
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,120
Warcraft for the rest of us.
14
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,160
And good Tuesday morning, Azeroth.
15
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,000
Welcome, everybody.
16
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,960
This is episode three of
Azeroth Morning Radio.
17
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,960
Hello, it's Warcraft.
18
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:32,800
For the rest of us here, the
9-5ers, the weekend warriors, those
19
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,280
of us who have a sink full of
dishes and about 30 minutes to play.
20
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,140
But we love Azeroth.
21
00:01:37,380 --> 00:01:38,820
So stoked to have you all here
with us.
22
00:01:38,820 --> 00:01:40,100
We are your hosts.
23
00:01:40,340 --> 00:01:44,340
My name is Jibs, and I'm
joined by Mr.
24
00:01:44,580 --> 00:01:51,780
Eight Time Toilet bowl cleaner
of Dornagal, which I hear it's very.
25
00:01:52,020 --> 00:01:53,220
Has a lot of stone in it.
26
00:01:53,220 --> 00:01:54,500
Anyway, our good friend Cash.
27
00:01:54,580 --> 00:01:56,500
Hey, everybody, Cash is here.
28
00:01:56,500 --> 00:01:57,940
And you know that is true.
29
00:01:58,100 --> 00:02:02,340
I don't really advertise that,
but that wasn't even a position back
30
00:02:02,340 --> 00:02:02,860
in the day.
31
00:02:02,860 --> 00:02:06,600
However, Dornagal has a
notorious taco joint.
32
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:11,400
I will carry many memorable
experiences back to the archive.
33
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,160
That's true, that's true,
that's true.
34
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,040
Oh, gosh.
35
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:18,960
Well, hey, welcome, everybody.
36
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,360
Thanks so much for tuning in.
37
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,160
Before we get started, buddy,
what'd you do in game this week?
38
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,840
It's been a fruitful week.
39
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,440
Go on.
40
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,000
I've.
41
00:02:29,250 --> 00:02:31,170
I feel like this was.
42
00:02:32,690 --> 00:02:33,410
It felt like.
43
00:02:33,410 --> 00:02:35,050
Well, it felt like something
was launching, which.
44
00:02:35,050 --> 00:02:35,690
Something was.
45
00:02:35,690 --> 00:02:36,610
Which was pretty cool.
46
00:02:36,610 --> 00:02:43,890
But you know how you get into
that mode where you spend time before
47
00:02:43,970 --> 00:02:47,210
you log off for the night when
something big is coming the next
48
00:02:47,210 --> 00:02:50,250
day and, like, you're getting
stuff ready, you're making sure you
49
00:02:50,250 --> 00:02:51,890
have all your affairs in order.
50
00:02:52,290 --> 00:02:52,890
Oh, yeah.
51
00:02:52,890 --> 00:02:57,510
And so, like, I'm on retail
that last night before remix launches,
52
00:02:57,510 --> 00:03:00,390
and I'm making sure that.
53
00:03:00,390 --> 00:03:02,270
Okay, did I do all my dailies?
54
00:03:02,910 --> 00:03:03,830
Yes, I did those.
55
00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:05,910
Okay, did I max out my depths?
56
00:03:05,910 --> 00:03:06,350
Wait, yeah.
57
00:03:06,350 --> 00:03:07,230
Max out my dubs.
58
00:03:07,550 --> 00:03:08,510
What does my.
59
00:03:09,550 --> 00:03:11,190
What does my vault look like?
60
00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:12,910
Okay, let's take a look and
see what it looks like.
61
00:03:13,150 --> 00:03:16,670
Cleaning the inventory, moving
stuff to the bank, just getting him
62
00:03:16,670 --> 00:03:21,390
ready for when I get back to
my resto druid, which at this point,
63
00:03:21,390 --> 00:03:22,950
I don't know when that's going
to be.
64
00:03:22,950 --> 00:03:23,950
It might be a minute.
65
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:28,060
I might log in to, like, see
the transmogs and stuff that I'm
66
00:03:28,060 --> 00:03:28,820
getting in remix.
67
00:03:28,820 --> 00:03:32,540
But, yeah, that was a big part
of the end of my week, was making
68
00:03:32,540 --> 00:03:35,980
sure that I had all my affairs
in order, so I didn't feel like I
69
00:03:35,980 --> 00:03:40,060
had any loose ends that I had
to go back to before remix started.
70
00:03:40,379 --> 00:03:45,180
And then once remix hit, like,
that was it.
71
00:03:45,340 --> 00:03:46,020
You want to.
72
00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:48,540
I know we're gonna get into it
a bit, but you want to talk about
73
00:03:48,540 --> 00:03:51,420
getting locked into something
that was new for me because I didn't
74
00:03:51,420 --> 00:03:52,740
do Miss a Panda Area remix.
75
00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:58,420
This is my first remix, and I
am having so much damn fun.
76
00:03:58,500 --> 00:03:59,060
Oh, yeah.
77
00:03:59,060 --> 00:03:59,540
Doing it.
78
00:03:59,540 --> 00:04:00,020
Yeah.
79
00:04:00,020 --> 00:04:00,740
Yeah, It's.
80
00:04:00,740 --> 00:04:01,660
It's amazing.
81
00:04:01,660 --> 00:04:03,100
That's what I've been doing
this week.
82
00:04:03,100 --> 00:04:03,700
I've been.
83
00:04:04,340 --> 00:04:05,260
I jumped in.
84
00:04:05,260 --> 00:04:06,100
I was excited.
85
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:07,460
I knew the name I wanted.
86
00:04:07,460 --> 00:04:10,300
As soon as the servers were
up, one of the many Discord servers
87
00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:14,340
I'm in pinged everybody that,
hey, we are.
88
00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:16,060
We're Servers are up.
89
00:04:16,060 --> 00:04:16,860
Like, all right, cool.
90
00:04:16,860 --> 00:04:20,830
Logged in immediately, got the
name I wanted, got to work.
91
00:04:20,910 --> 00:04:24,990
Of course he's a Paladin and
just off to the races.
92
00:04:25,310 --> 00:04:25,870
Same boat.
93
00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:32,910
Like, I've never been in a.
I've never been in a. I have never
94
00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:33,470
been.
95
00:04:34,830 --> 00:04:36,110
I am on the air.
96
00:04:36,750 --> 00:04:37,230
Hey.
97
00:04:37,470 --> 00:04:38,350
Hey, you two.
98
00:04:39,070 --> 00:04:41,310
You ever think of trying hair
growth potion?
99
00:04:41,470 --> 00:04:45,390
Uh, no, I haven't, thank you
very much.
100
00:04:45,630 --> 00:04:50,830
I'm telling ya, we did, and it
worked, just not where we wanted.
101
00:04:51,620 --> 00:04:53,340
Now I'm kind of rocking a hair diaper.
102
00:04:53,340 --> 00:04:54,660
But anyway, it's an idea.
103
00:04:57,940 --> 00:05:00,420
That's what you get when you
have Goblins for a sound crew.
104
00:05:00,980 --> 00:05:02,180
Can we even air that?
105
00:05:04,260 --> 00:05:05,660
I think we let it fly, bro.
106
00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:08,660
But it's pretty obvious we
didn't introduce the damn Goblins,
107
00:05:08,660 --> 00:05:09,540
and now they're pissed.
108
00:05:10,100 --> 00:05:11,220
Oh, my gosh.
109
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:12,340
I can already hear.
110
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:13,180
Not the ho.
111
00:05:13,180 --> 00:05:13,860
What do they call that?
112
00:05:13,860 --> 00:05:14,340
The people that.
113
00:05:14,340 --> 00:05:16,540
When it's like, the not hoa.
114
00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:17,260
That's for homes.
115
00:05:17,260 --> 00:05:17,940
But whatever it is.
116
00:05:17,940 --> 00:05:20,890
Like, whenever you're, like,
live on the air and they're like,
117
00:05:20,970 --> 00:05:22,890
guardians of the fcc.
118
00:05:23,130 --> 00:05:23,530
Yeah.
119
00:05:23,530 --> 00:05:24,890
What's Stormwind's version?
120
00:05:26,490 --> 00:05:28,010
Oh, gosh.
121
00:05:28,410 --> 00:05:30,290
Anyway, yeah, so we have
Goblins here.
122
00:05:30,290 --> 00:05:31,050
Welcome, fellas.
123
00:05:31,850 --> 00:05:32,570
That was good.
124
00:05:33,530 --> 00:05:35,290
But, yeah, hopped in.
125
00:05:35,690 --> 00:05:36,970
Hopped into remix.
126
00:05:37,450 --> 00:05:38,810
Had a good time with it.
127
00:05:38,810 --> 00:05:40,370
Still having a great time with it.
128
00:05:40,370 --> 00:05:42,890
It's fun because it's fun.
129
00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:46,170
Like, it's just so much
available to you.
130
00:05:46,740 --> 00:05:47,940
And honestly, we'll probably.
131
00:05:48,260 --> 00:05:50,460
We should probably jump into
that at some point before we.
132
00:05:50,460 --> 00:05:52,180
Maybe before we get into the news.
133
00:05:52,180 --> 00:05:55,540
I know we weren't planning on
it, but my goodness, man, like, that
134
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:55,860
just.
135
00:05:56,580 --> 00:05:57,300
It's fun.
136
00:05:57,620 --> 00:05:58,740
It's just pure fun.
137
00:05:58,820 --> 00:06:00,340
Yeah, definitely worth.
138
00:06:00,580 --> 00:06:04,660
I mean, we have a packed show,
but it is definitely worth a blurp.
139
00:06:04,740 --> 00:06:08,220
It's worth a small
conversation here as we, as we get
140
00:06:08,220 --> 00:06:09,220
into the news for sure.
141
00:06:09,460 --> 00:06:10,740
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
142
00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:13,860
Well, everybody, again, thank
you so much for pushing play hanging
143
00:06:13,860 --> 00:06:16,460
out with us here on Azeroth
morning radio.
144
00:06:16,460 --> 00:06:19,320
We're so stoked to have you
here with us this week on the show
145
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:19,720
we have.
146
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,400
The heroes call board is back.
147
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,000
Of course.
148
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,520
Midnight combat changes.
149
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,520
We told you in episode two.
150
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:25,680
We're talking about it this week.
151
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:26,800
And we are.
152
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,280
And Snark makes its return.
153
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,200
But before we get there, let's
go to a brief commercial.
154
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:32,880
We'll be right back.
155
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,400
Hey there, adventurers.
156
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,440
Ever get tired of losing sight
of your known party members in crowded
157
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:40,800
raids?
158
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,160
Does anybody see the healer?
159
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,920
Sick of tripping over your old
so called tiny allies and battlegrounds?
160
00:06:46,180 --> 00:06:47,140
That was my fault.
161
00:06:47,220 --> 00:06:50,100
Well, yeah, I got the solution
for you.
162
00:06:50,420 --> 00:06:54,820
The all in one one of a kind
gnome and larger 5,000.
163
00:06:54,900 --> 00:06:55,540
Oh, hey guys.
164
00:06:55,540 --> 00:06:55,980
That feels.
165
00:06:55,980 --> 00:06:57,700
Aw, this feels awesome.
166
00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:58,740
That's right.
167
00:06:58,820 --> 00:07:02,339
With just one push of a
button, we take your fun size gnome
168
00:07:02,420 --> 00:07:04,100
and make them party sized.
169
00:07:05,620 --> 00:07:09,540
Twice the fireballs, triple
the monocle glare, and don't worry,
170
00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:13,090
we've totally worked out the
side effects.
171
00:07:13,170 --> 00:07:15,130
Uh, is that a hand coming out
of my butt?
172
00:07:15,130 --> 00:07:18,970
Gnomenlaja, make your friends
huge order.
173
00:07:18,970 --> 00:07:22,290
Now we'll throw in a free
gnome sized step stool for nostalgia
174
00:07:22,290 --> 00:07:22,930
purposes.
175
00:07:23,170 --> 00:07:25,930
Perfect for remembering how
short they used to be before they
176
00:07:25,930 --> 00:07:27,250
became raid bosses.
177
00:07:27,250 --> 00:07:28,570
Okay, that's insulting.
178
00:07:28,570 --> 00:07:29,090
Warning.
179
00:07:29,090 --> 00:07:32,370
Gnome in larger 5,000 not
approved by Tinkers Union.
180
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:35,890
Side effects may include giant
boots stuck in stormwind canals,
181
00:07:36,130 --> 00:07:39,130
unintentional building
demolition, or your gnome demanding
182
00:07:39,130 --> 00:07:40,940
to be called your highness.
183
00:07:41,180 --> 00:07:42,140
All sales final.
184
00:07:46,220 --> 00:07:50,140
I'm Morpork Tichondrius,
baddest warrior.
185
00:07:50,380 --> 00:07:54,380
When I'm not lifting heavy
weights and setting them down again,
186
00:07:54,700 --> 00:07:57,740
I'm listening to Azeroth
morning radio.
187
00:08:03,260 --> 00:08:05,500
All right, welcome back everybody.
188
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,280
So the hero's call.
189
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,440
Heroes call smack.
190
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,880
What's your name, soldier Pile.
191
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:19,840
Private Pile.
192
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:21,600
Sergeant Pepper.
193
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:23,720
Yeah.
194
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:24,400
Heroes call.
195
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,520
Heroes call board.
196
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,960
This week we have a few little
shout outs here.
197
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,150
As you know, we like to shout
out the community.
198
00:08:33,790 --> 00:08:35,630
Community is what drives wow.
199
00:08:35,950 --> 00:08:40,830
It is what makes up a lot of
the fun that we have in the game.
200
00:08:40,910 --> 00:08:44,350
And there's so many people
playing World of Warcraft and the
201
00:08:44,350 --> 00:08:47,470
personalities out there,
different lives, different different
202
00:08:47,470 --> 00:08:52,030
timelines, different all kinds
of things bring together this massive
203
00:08:52,030 --> 00:08:55,310
community of people that love
the world of Azeroth.
204
00:08:55,310 --> 00:08:56,990
And we like to Highlight them.
205
00:08:57,630 --> 00:08:58,910
So we have a few tonight.
206
00:08:59,070 --> 00:09:04,770
The first one is I want to
give a massive shout out a subreddit
207
00:09:04,770 --> 00:09:06,650
on Reddit.
208
00:09:06,890 --> 00:09:09,450
I want to give a shout out to
a subreddit on Reddit.
209
00:09:11,770 --> 00:09:14,370
We put out some feelers out there.
210
00:09:14,370 --> 00:09:15,730
We're not huge Reddit guys.
211
00:09:15,730 --> 00:09:20,650
I will say that we're not huge
Reddit guys because in the past,
212
00:09:21,370 --> 00:09:28,650
Reddit has been what we might
call comasadise toxic af.
213
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:31,360
Oh, dude.
214
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,000
Ah, the smell of straw and cow dung.
215
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,560
This place brings back a lot
of memories.
216
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,200
And it, you go there with the
best intentions with, you're like
217
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:40,800
a genuine.
218
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,320
It's like when a child goes to
a toy store and walks out.
219
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,200
Like, it just like maybe the
toys were all covered in rust and
220
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,960
everything and it wasn't what
they hoped it'd be.
221
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,200
That's what Reddit is.
222
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,480
Oftentimes when you go there,
you're like, hey, everybody.
223
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:56,920
You're like, why is this
supposed to even hear loud noises?
224
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,600
I like, I think that go.
225
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,680
It definitely goes for Jibs
and definitely goes for me is that
226
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:07,880
whenever we, when we come into
a space, whether it's, you know,
227
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,480
social media, whatever it is,
we come with kindness.
228
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:18,320
Like, we really, honestly,
from our hearts, we come with kindness.
229
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,720
And I don't like, I'm not a
big, like, you know, social media
230
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:27,960
guy anyway, but I still, you
know, I'm on Twitter and, and Facebook
231
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,720
and all the things.
232
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:30,960
Not all of them.
233
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,000
I'm not on Tick Tock yet.
234
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,080
Oh, I refuse because I'm old.
235
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:35,800
Yeah.
236
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,320
And I, I, I can't do it.
237
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,320
I just, I cannot.
238
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,240
I've not brought myself to go
get on Tick Tock yet.
239
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,080
But anyway, I digress.
240
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,600
We always come at things from
a place of kindness.
241
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,880
And whenever I've gone to
Reddit for just to ask a question,
242
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,640
to put something in.
243
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,170
I'm not like a super Redditor
guy where I've got a billion posts,
244
00:10:57,410 --> 00:11:01,170
but it always feels like
you're walking across the moat.
245
00:11:01,410 --> 00:11:02,770
Remember that game Pitfall?
246
00:11:02,770 --> 00:11:03,490
Oh, yeah.
247
00:11:03,650 --> 00:11:04,170
Oh, yeah.
248
00:11:04,170 --> 00:11:07,970
You had to walk across the
rivers and you're stepping on alligator
249
00:11:07,970 --> 00:11:08,450
heads.
250
00:11:08,450 --> 00:11:09,010
Yeah.
251
00:11:09,250 --> 00:11:10,930
That's what Reddit feels like
to me.
252
00:11:12,130 --> 00:11:15,250
And somebody invariably gets me.
253
00:11:15,570 --> 00:11:20,360
And so anyway, we were doing
some promotions for the show because,
254
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,760
like, Jibs and I are super
excited about this project.
255
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:23,960
Really excited.
256
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,920
It dwarfs most of the
conversations that we have nowadays
257
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,520
because we want to talk about
the show.
258
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,480
We want to talk about, you
know, hey, we should add this or
259
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,920
we should try this or, you
know, this would be super fun.
260
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,240
And things are Going well and
blah, blah, all that stuff.
261
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,720
So we were doing some
promotions and we put a post out
262
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,400
and just got bit.
263
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,040
Got bit for jumped up.
264
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,920
It was, it was like a super
humble advertisement.
265
00:11:50,150 --> 00:11:52,950
Just like, hey, we're trying
this thing, you know, come out and
266
00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:54,670
take a look if it's your thing.
267
00:11:54,670 --> 00:11:55,550
And just got bit.
268
00:11:55,550 --> 00:11:56,710
And we were like, oh my God.
269
00:11:56,870 --> 00:12:02,310
But a subreddit reached out
and super cool.
270
00:12:02,310 --> 00:12:05,710
It was a gentleman by the name
of system of cells and he runs a
271
00:12:05,710 --> 00:12:06,630
subreddit for.
272
00:12:06,870 --> 00:12:08,870
For Reddit called Casual wow.
273
00:12:09,110 --> 00:12:11,670
And so I struck up a
conversation with this gentleman
274
00:12:11,670 --> 00:12:17,900
and just super inviting, super
good guy trying to build up this
275
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:19,500
Casual Wow subreddit.
276
00:12:19,820 --> 00:12:23,660
And I was just very impressed,
like right off the bat with this
277
00:12:23,660 --> 00:12:26,900
person's kindness because I
felt like it, like it kind of mirrors
278
00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:30,140
our own humility, you know,
just really, really nice guy.
279
00:12:30,620 --> 00:12:34,660
Anyway, if you are on Reddit
and you're looking for WOW communities
280
00:12:34,660 --> 00:12:38,060
on Reddit or looking to add
one to your repertoire, the casual
281
00:12:38,060 --> 00:12:41,580
WoW subreddit is a community
for WoW players who enjoy the less
282
00:12:41,740 --> 00:12:45,460
stressful aspects of the game,
such as questing, collecting appearances,
283
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:47,030
dungeons and player housing.
284
00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:52,270
But overall they just have a
really cool, monitored open community
285
00:12:53,310 --> 00:12:56,910
of WoW players that lean
toward the casual side.
286
00:12:57,390 --> 00:13:01,390
And from what I have
experienced there, it's been a pretty
287
00:13:01,390 --> 00:13:02,349
good spot to go.
288
00:13:02,910 --> 00:13:03,950
So, Adam.
289
00:13:04,030 --> 00:13:05,390
Yeah, absolutely.
290
00:13:05,550 --> 00:13:08,830
There was something else that
came up and honestly, had we not
291
00:13:08,830 --> 00:13:11,590
received a DM from one of our
close friends, our death, we had
292
00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:14,670
no idea that this was number
one, a show, which I felt terrible
293
00:13:14,670 --> 00:13:17,100
for, but number two, that we
even got the shout out.
294
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:19,940
So this is coming from the
podcast Solo Queue.
295
00:13:20,420 --> 00:13:23,220
Go check them out, folks,
after you're done here at AMR today.
296
00:13:23,220 --> 00:13:27,660
They gave us so much love on
their recent episode from.
297
00:13:27,660 --> 00:13:31,140
I think it was around the 8
minute mark, so 8 to 9 minute mark.
298
00:13:31,140 --> 00:13:36,180
And just gave a huge warm
welcome, which was so, like unexpected
299
00:13:36,260 --> 00:13:38,180
and was so kind and so nice.
300
00:13:38,660 --> 00:13:39,380
Solo Queue.
301
00:13:39,380 --> 00:13:40,300
It was so, so nice.
302
00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:42,340
So be sure and go check out
that podcast as well.
303
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:43,640
Really like the show.
304
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:44,320
It was awesome.
305
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,320
I, as a matter of fact, as
soon as I heard that I was on my.
306
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,440
I was driving today and I
popped the show on and I was like,
307
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,760
oh my God, like this show
makes a lot of sense.
308
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:53,880
It's Solo Queue.
309
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,280
He's a solo podcaster and he
podcasts about how he plays the game
310
00:13:58,519 --> 00:13:59,080
solo.
311
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,440
Yeah, and I'm not gonna call
him casual.
312
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,280
I'm gonna call him a bit of a
neckbearder because the guy has 65
313
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,850
characters 65 characters.
314
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:13,810
And I was like, dude, I've
been playing this game since launch
315
00:14:14,450 --> 00:14:17,770
and I have nowhere near that
many characters.
316
00:14:17,770 --> 00:14:19,810
That is a freaking commitment.
317
00:14:19,970 --> 00:14:23,050
Like, I can see if you're
saving names and such, but, man,
318
00:14:23,050 --> 00:14:23,650
I have a heart.
319
00:14:23,650 --> 00:14:28,370
I have the hardest time, you
know, nurturing my druid, let alone
320
00:14:29,170 --> 00:14:30,450
65 characters.
321
00:14:30,450 --> 00:14:34,610
And he, admittedly, he doesn't
play them all, but he just has a
322
00:14:34,610 --> 00:14:34,890
bunch.
323
00:14:34,890 --> 00:14:35,770
Like, he'll, he'll.
324
00:14:35,770 --> 00:14:37,850
There'll be an event going on
and he'll just roll a character and
325
00:14:37,850 --> 00:14:38,410
go do the event.
326
00:14:38,650 --> 00:14:39,250
That's awesome.
327
00:14:39,250 --> 00:14:41,610
And then that character lives
in his little army.
328
00:14:41,610 --> 00:14:42,250
It's awesome.
329
00:14:42,250 --> 00:14:45,490
So, but anyway, it's, it's a,
it's a really good show.
330
00:14:45,490 --> 00:14:48,050
They get, they have really
good, he's got really good sound
331
00:14:48,050 --> 00:14:48,490
quality.
332
00:14:48,970 --> 00:14:52,010
He's got, he's got, you know,
bumpers and fun stuff that goes on
333
00:14:52,010 --> 00:14:52,370
in there.
334
00:14:52,370 --> 00:14:52,730
But.
335
00:14:53,610 --> 00:14:57,330
And I have to take my hat off
to anybody who does a solo podcast.
336
00:14:57,330 --> 00:14:59,130
Yeah, that is, it's incredible.
337
00:14:59,210 --> 00:15:00,130
And he's pulling it off.
338
00:15:00,130 --> 00:15:00,530
Yeah.
339
00:15:00,530 --> 00:15:01,880
So good on you, man.
340
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,360
And thank you for your very
heartfelt shout out for our show.
341
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,200
That was really cool.
342
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:07,880
Agreed.
343
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,760
All right, last on the agenda
for Heroes Call board was something
344
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,680
that I had to mention because,
like last week when I mentioned Ragnon
345
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,440
Gaming's Druid video, Druid
Resto Druid videos, that one helped
346
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,360
me out a ton and this one also
has helped me out a bunch.
347
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:32,970
And it is another one of my go
to resources on YouTube for, for
348
00:15:32,970 --> 00:15:36,050
tutorials and just, you know,
ways to save time and stuff.
349
00:15:36,050 --> 00:15:38,770
And they're very, very, very
good about this.
350
00:15:39,170 --> 00:15:43,450
If you've never watched any
videos from the Comeback kids, do
351
00:15:43,450 --> 00:15:43,730
it.
352
00:15:43,970 --> 00:15:45,810
Throw them a, like, throw them
a sub.
353
00:15:46,290 --> 00:15:49,650
Because their videos are very,
very well thought out and very well
354
00:15:49,650 --> 00:15:50,130
produced.
355
00:15:50,130 --> 00:15:52,250
So anyway, this one in
particular that I wanted to shout
356
00:15:52,250 --> 00:15:55,440
out this week on the Heroes
call is their Legion Remix guidelines.
357
00:15:55,830 --> 00:16:00,310
And it is entitled how to
Absolutely Stomp Legion Remix and
358
00:16:00,310 --> 00:16:02,150
Earn Every Reward Fast.
359
00:16:02,710 --> 00:16:04,230
And they're not kidding.
360
00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:04,710
We've been.
361
00:16:05,030 --> 00:16:09,110
I took a bunch of notes from
their video and I've been sharing
362
00:16:09,110 --> 00:16:13,950
it with folks in our community
and some of our friends as we work
363
00:16:13,950 --> 00:16:15,510
through Legion Remix.
364
00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:20,630
And he covers everything from
the different currencies that you're
365
00:16:20,630 --> 00:16:24,790
going to, that you're going to
accumulate and utilize what priorities
366
00:16:24,790 --> 00:16:26,110
to take from day one.
367
00:16:26,110 --> 00:16:30,310
Even though we're on day
three, as a recording of the show,
368
00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:32,870
we're on day three, how to
progress quickly.
369
00:16:32,870 --> 00:16:39,390
He talks about some really
good farming spots which ain't gonna
370
00:16:39,390 --> 00:16:45,590
be so good farming spots after
this show and then, and then what
371
00:16:45,590 --> 00:16:46,430
to do at max level.
372
00:16:46,430 --> 00:16:49,880
So anyway, if you're looking
for a really good guide, get yourself
373
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,320
a paper and pen or get
yourself your phone, pop up a brand
374
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:58,200
new note and start taking some
notes on this video because it really
375
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:03,080
does help you understand how
Legion Remix works and how to maximize
376
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:03,720
your time.
377
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,720
So yeah, just a very
impressive video and I loved it and
378
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,680
it's much appreciated that
those things are out there.
379
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:11,880
Agreed.
380
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:15,400
Breaking news.
381
00:17:17,249 --> 00:17:20,049
Lots of Holly used by the
Goblin News Network.
382
00:17:22,049 --> 00:17:25,169
All right, so top news for
this week, folks.
383
00:17:25,169 --> 00:17:30,369
Now this is kind of a, I guess
at this point this is a old ish article.
384
00:17:31,009 --> 00:17:32,808
Yeah, actually it will be by
the time this comes out.
385
00:17:32,808 --> 00:17:34,369
So this came out October 1st.
386
00:17:34,849 --> 00:17:38,329
However, we talked about last
week how we were going to cover this
387
00:17:38,329 --> 00:17:41,969
episode because we really
wanted to spend time talking about
388
00:17:41,969 --> 00:17:45,730
this because this has made a
lot of waves in the community and
389
00:17:45,730 --> 00:17:51,450
it's honestly been very
enjoyable to sit back and just listen
390
00:17:51,450 --> 00:17:53,530
to what everyone has to say
about this.
391
00:17:53,530 --> 00:17:54,810
And this is coming to.
392
00:17:55,370 --> 00:18:01,090
This is coming to us from
warcraft.com so it is Developer Insight
393
00:18:01,090 --> 00:18:04,090
Combat for Everyone in Midnight.
394
00:18:04,490 --> 00:18:07,610
And that speaks truth to a lot
of what World of Warcraft is.
395
00:18:07,610 --> 00:18:08,090
It's.
396
00:18:08,410 --> 00:18:10,800
It seems as though it's more
moving more and more.
397
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,200
So that was one of the things
that got like, kind of brought us
398
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,360
here all, all this time over
the years is it just kind of fits
399
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:20,880
us, you know, it's that it's
the, the 99 vibe, like everything
400
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,440
we talk about here on the
show, you know, it's, it's for everyone.
401
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,040
And so that's kind of what
they're doing with the combat.
402
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,920
Combat for Everyone in Midnight.
403
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,520
And this is like a, this is a
very lengthy article, but we're kind
404
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,040
of just going to take our time
and go through it.
405
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,840
In short, combat changes are
coming in Midnight.
406
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,240
We know that, especially after
this article.
407
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,200
And there's one thing that I
want to read verbatim before we get
408
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,960
started because it kind of
sets everything up for a discussion
409
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:46,600
for you and I.
410
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,680
And it says, quote, we are
updating every class specialization
411
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,280
with an eye towards
approachability by reducing complexity
412
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:55,200
and making gameplay more intuitive.
413
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,560
We are beginning by focusing
on what makes each specialization
414
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,120
unique and designing gameplay
that matches their theme so your
415
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,520
character's personality and
style are reflected in how you play.
416
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,040
Our goal is for the most
appealing, visible elements of your
417
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,280
spec to be what matters most
in gameplay.
418
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,440
That often means managing
resources, tracking a few key buffs
419
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,880
and debuffs, using ability
Charges strategically and responding
420
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,760
to important triggered
effects, also known as procs.
421
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,080
So they're redoing everything.
422
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,870
I mean, well, let me rephrase that.
423
00:19:27,870 --> 00:19:30,070
They're redoing combat,
they're making it more approachable,
424
00:19:30,070 --> 00:19:31,110
they're changing things up.
425
00:19:31,270 --> 00:19:32,230
And there's been a lot.
426
00:19:32,230 --> 00:19:34,750
And we've already seen the
first wave of kind of what those
427
00:19:34,750 --> 00:19:38,510
patch notes may look like and
I believe they were 100 and what
428
00:19:38,510 --> 00:19:42,150
was it, like over 140 plus
pages or something at this point?
429
00:19:42,310 --> 00:19:42,670
Yeah.
430
00:19:42,670 --> 00:19:47,110
According to Bellular's, One
of Bellular's latest videos is 38,000
431
00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:47,750
words.
432
00:19:48,150 --> 00:19:50,230
Wow, that's a lot of words.
433
00:19:50,550 --> 00:19:51,510
Yeah, yeah.
434
00:19:51,510 --> 00:19:54,740
I mean that's, that's a,
that's a short story.
435
00:19:55,140 --> 00:19:56,180
That's a novella.
436
00:19:56,500 --> 00:20:01,380
Yeah, you know, dude, I mean,
and, and kudos to them for going
437
00:20:01,380 --> 00:20:04,820
through all of those changes
the way that they have and so.
438
00:20:04,820 --> 00:20:07,140
And in depth like they did.
439
00:20:07,460 --> 00:20:10,700
And the core theme for this
with them is that their aim is to
440
00:20:10,700 --> 00:20:13,940
make World of Warcraft combat
more approachable and intuitive.
441
00:20:14,580 --> 00:20:17,780
And while not losing the depth and.
442
00:20:17,780 --> 00:20:21,950
Or mastery that players enjoy,
that seems to be a thing that, that's
443
00:20:21,950 --> 00:20:22,510
going around.
444
00:20:22,510 --> 00:20:24,230
So they're talking a lot about.
445
00:20:24,230 --> 00:20:27,910
They're going to be, I would
say, streamlining a lot of the classes.
446
00:20:27,910 --> 00:20:30,750
I think to me this is Warcraft
Combat 2.0.
447
00:20:30,910 --> 00:20:32,110
That's how I see this.
448
00:20:32,110 --> 00:20:35,470
I don't know how you see all
this, but to me it's.
449
00:20:35,630 --> 00:20:39,350
They're up, they're updating
the combat to match the updates with
450
00:20:39,350 --> 00:20:39,710
the game.
451
00:20:40,110 --> 00:20:44,150
The one thing I don't want to
see it turn into because this has
452
00:20:44,150 --> 00:20:47,290
happened in the past and this
is going to out me with my, with
453
00:20:47,290 --> 00:20:48,970
my elder age again.
454
00:20:50,090 --> 00:20:58,610
But have any of you out there
experienced what happened with Star
455
00:20:58,610 --> 00:21:01,370
Wars Galaxies way back in the day?
456
00:21:01,450 --> 00:21:06,690
Oh, I know and I hate to bring
it up here because I really do have
457
00:21:06,690 --> 00:21:09,130
trust in Blizzard that they're
going to pull this off and knock
458
00:21:09,130 --> 00:21:09,770
it out of the park.
459
00:21:09,930 --> 00:21:14,880
I didn't have that same trust
in Sony Online Entertainment way
460
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:20,120
back in the day because they
completely pooped on that game like
461
00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:20,840
badly.
462
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,720
So if you don't know, I'll sum
it up really quickly.
463
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:30,560
Star Wars Galaxies was a Star
wars massively multiplayer online
464
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,600
role playing game that I
believe launched in 09.
465
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,280
And I sunk a ton.
466
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,400
I'm a massive Star wars fan,
so I sunk a ton of time into that
467
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,800
game and the game systems had
all these little intricacies and
468
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,640
it was truly a Star wars sandbox.
469
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,520
Like it was really a lot of fun.
470
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,240
Because of all the things you
could do in the game and the combat
471
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,560
systems could be complex.
472
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,440
A lot of the systems in the
game were very deep and very complex.
473
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,200
Like, you know, you had
crafting and serving for resources
474
00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:05,310
and just so much stuff.
475
00:22:05,620 --> 00:22:10,140
It could be anything from a
merchant, a diplomat, a dancer in
476
00:22:10,140 --> 00:22:12,100
a cantina, all the way to a.
477
00:22:13,620 --> 00:22:14,740
To a Jedi Knight.
478
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:15,940
And that was only.
479
00:22:16,660 --> 00:22:21,940
You could only be a Jedi only
if you had unlocked a whole bunch
480
00:22:21,940 --> 00:22:26,820
of classes and maxed them all
out in the correct order.
481
00:22:27,700 --> 00:22:30,820
And all that did was open up
an additional character slot for
482
00:22:30,820 --> 00:22:32,430
you to have a force sensitive character.
483
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:36,180
Super cryptic until people
figured it out, but super cryptic.
484
00:22:36,500 --> 00:22:40,940
Amazingly cool, amazingly
exclusive in certain aspects where
485
00:22:40,940 --> 00:22:41,100
you.
486
00:22:41,100 --> 00:22:41,340
True.
487
00:22:41,340 --> 00:22:47,340
If you saw a Jedi in town, it
was amazing to see that because it's
488
00:22:47,340 --> 00:22:48,180
so rare, right?
489
00:22:49,940 --> 00:22:53,860
They came back and it was
almost overnight.
490
00:22:53,860 --> 00:22:55,020
That's what it seemed like to me.
491
00:22:55,020 --> 00:22:59,780
Because at the time I was not
paying attention to development cycles
492
00:22:59,780 --> 00:23:00,510
the way I do now.
493
00:23:00,580 --> 00:23:02,660
I was not a patch note reader
like I am now.
494
00:23:02,740 --> 00:23:05,580
But it almost seemed like
overnight they put these combat changes
495
00:23:05,580 --> 00:23:10,340
in the game and now all of a
sudden everybody can be a Jedi.
496
00:23:10,740 --> 00:23:11,860
Just got to pick the class.
497
00:23:12,740 --> 00:23:15,460
You could take everything that
you'd earn in the game, all your.
498
00:23:15,460 --> 00:23:18,540
All your points and everything
from your classes and you could just
499
00:23:18,540 --> 00:23:20,820
put it into whatever class you wanted.
500
00:23:20,820 --> 00:23:25,860
And it completely changed the
gameplay and the feel of the game.
501
00:23:26,270 --> 00:23:28,870
I don't think that's what
Blizzard is going to do here.
502
00:23:28,870 --> 00:23:29,470
I think it's.
503
00:23:29,470 --> 00:23:33,910
It's a far cry, but that is in
the deepest, darkest corner of my
504
00:23:33,910 --> 00:23:34,190
heart.
505
00:23:34,190 --> 00:23:38,670
That's a worry that this is
kind of what they're alluding to.
506
00:23:39,390 --> 00:23:42,030
And there's a second point
that I want to bring up.
507
00:23:42,670 --> 00:23:45,630
Maybe I'll bring it up in a
little bit and kind of expand upon
508
00:23:45,630 --> 00:23:46,110
it a little bit.
509
00:23:46,110 --> 00:23:50,430
But do you think maybe they're
making things a little bit easier
510
00:23:50,430 --> 00:23:52,560
because they're prepping for a
console release?
511
00:23:53,270 --> 00:23:53,990
Oh, 100%.
512
00:23:54,310 --> 00:23:56,870
And I would even go as far as
to say eventually a mobile release.
513
00:23:57,270 --> 00:23:57,990
Oh no.
514
00:23:58,310 --> 00:23:58,950
Did I.
515
00:23:58,950 --> 00:23:59,990
Did I push a button?
516
00:24:00,150 --> 00:24:00,590
Yeah.
517
00:24:00,590 --> 00:24:01,670
Because I hate mobile games.
518
00:24:04,550 --> 00:24:05,990
Yeah, no, absolutely.
519
00:24:05,990 --> 00:24:07,790
Priming for a console release.
520
00:24:07,790 --> 00:24:09,990
You have the one button
rotation, right?
521
00:24:10,150 --> 00:24:11,750
That's something we've never
really talked about.
522
00:24:11,830 --> 00:24:15,830
I love the fact that that is
in the game that is made.
523
00:24:16,470 --> 00:24:20,470
I have seen posts where people
who due to physical disabilities,
524
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,760
they were never able to attain
a rating in.
525
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,000
It was one post.
526
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,640
I wish I could remember exactly.
527
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:27,880
I would link it too.
528
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:28,400
But they.
529
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,840
This person could never hit
rating in arenas in PvP arenas because
530
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,839
of the rotation, they were
able to finally achieve the rating
531
00:24:36,839 --> 00:24:38,160
they were looking for and get
the set.
532
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,280
They've, you know, get a, get
a set because that means something.
533
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,200
And it was just.
534
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,800
And they got that because of
the one button rotation.
535
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,520
And I'm just like, I love the
fact it's in the game.
536
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,160
It makes it.
537
00:24:48,470 --> 00:24:51,390
Except that increases
accessibility across the board for
538
00:24:51,390 --> 00:24:55,430
people who need it and you
know, it's, it's a great resource
539
00:24:55,430 --> 00:24:56,830
and so, yeah, absolutely.
540
00:24:56,830 --> 00:24:57,990
I could see a console Release.
541
00:24:58,070 --> 00:25:00,550
I am 100% on board with you there.
542
00:25:01,590 --> 00:25:03,830
I love the one button thing.
543
00:25:03,830 --> 00:25:05,190
I think it's, I think it's great.
544
00:25:05,190 --> 00:25:09,150
I think it goes right along
with things like the arachnophobia
545
00:25:09,150 --> 00:25:09,510
mode.
546
00:25:09,510 --> 00:25:13,750
Could you imagine having a
crippling fear, A crippling fear
547
00:25:14,300 --> 00:25:19,180
that was not your choice and
not able to play a game because there's
548
00:25:19,740 --> 00:25:21,820
freaking spiders everywhere.
549
00:25:23,260 --> 00:25:23,660
Right.
550
00:25:24,060 --> 00:25:24,580
Yeah.
551
00:25:24,580 --> 00:25:28,340
And you click on this
arachnophobia mode and it completely
552
00:25:28,340 --> 00:25:31,580
changes your ability to play
the game.
553
00:25:32,300 --> 00:25:36,060
That is a company that's
paying attention to their people.
554
00:25:36,380 --> 00:25:36,860
Yeah.
555
00:25:36,860 --> 00:25:37,460
That's awesome.
556
00:25:37,460 --> 00:25:41,620
Of course they're paying
attention to money too, but at the
557
00:25:41,620 --> 00:25:44,090
same time, it's a business.
558
00:25:44,330 --> 00:25:48,170
But a lot more people get to
play the game because of attention
559
00:25:48,170 --> 00:25:49,170
to detail like that.
560
00:25:49,170 --> 00:25:49,610
Yeah.
561
00:25:49,770 --> 00:25:52,570
So, you know, I mentioned the
Star wars galaxy thing and like in,
562
00:25:52,570 --> 00:25:54,410
you know, in the deepest part
of my heart, that's what I'm.
563
00:25:54,490 --> 00:25:56,090
That's what I'm worried about happening.
564
00:25:56,090 --> 00:25:57,130
Do I think that's going to happen?
565
00:25:57,370 --> 00:25:57,770
No.
566
00:25:58,090 --> 00:25:58,650
And it.
567
00:25:58,890 --> 00:26:00,330
I considered this a lot.
568
00:26:00,330 --> 00:26:02,610
I'm not, you know, I'm an
older dude.
569
00:26:02,610 --> 00:26:03,610
I don't like change.
570
00:26:03,690 --> 00:26:04,850
As you get older, you just.
571
00:26:04,850 --> 00:26:06,090
I don't like change.
572
00:26:06,090 --> 00:26:09,290
I just had this conversation
about how Ragnarok's making me a
573
00:26:09,290 --> 00:26:10,380
better druid right now.
574
00:26:10,380 --> 00:26:12,900
I can, as he says, like, I can
spin the plates.
575
00:26:12,980 --> 00:26:13,780
You need a hot.
576
00:26:13,780 --> 00:26:14,500
You need a hot.
577
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:15,060
You need a hot.
578
00:26:15,060 --> 00:26:15,900
You need a second hot.
579
00:26:15,900 --> 00:26:16,980
You need a second hot.
580
00:26:17,060 --> 00:26:19,900
And I do all these little heal
over times and I'm just constantly
581
00:26:19,900 --> 00:26:22,180
looking at that while I'm
dodging things on the ground and
582
00:26:22,180 --> 00:26:23,220
trying to stay out of the poop.
583
00:26:23,540 --> 00:26:29,420
And I'm finally feeling more
comfortable doing that and learning
584
00:26:29,420 --> 00:26:30,020
my class.
585
00:26:30,820 --> 00:26:32,100
And now things are going to change.
586
00:26:32,180 --> 00:26:35,220
So for a minute I was like,
dagnabbit, these things are going
587
00:26:35,220 --> 00:26:35,780
to change again.
588
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,560
And then, then it came down to
what I, what I really felt about
589
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,280
it after I had some consideration.
590
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:47,520
And that is if they're going
to simplify things a little bit.
591
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,440
What are they going to simplify.
592
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,320
So of course, patch note reader.
593
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,480
And like everybody out there,
I know what you do when you read
594
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:57,280
patch notes.
595
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,360
You go, hunter meh.
596
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:00,720
Demon hunter meh.
597
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,160
Paladin meh.
598
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,520
Well, there's my class.
599
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:05,760
You go right to your class.
600
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:07,440
You know what I mean?
601
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:08,080
I'm offended.
602
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:09,040
You should be.
603
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,840
But you go right to your class
and you read those patch notes.
604
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,040
That's exactly what I did for Druid.
605
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:20,320
And I got to the Resto part
and I started reading and I was like,
606
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,800
you know, these changes are
actually kind of smart.
607
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,280
These changes are not going to
completely change the way that my
608
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:31,120
class plays.
609
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:32,720
My class identity's still there.
610
00:27:33,340 --> 00:27:35,260
The flow is going to get better.
611
00:27:35,580 --> 00:27:41,100
It's going to get a little bit
easier to maintain a lot of my heals
612
00:27:41,100 --> 00:27:41,660
over time.
613
00:27:42,540 --> 00:27:46,140
And when I started looking at
it from that perspective, it totally
614
00:27:46,140 --> 00:27:50,700
changed my mind and made me
more interested in a lot of these
615
00:27:50,700 --> 00:27:52,780
bullet points that, that
they're putting out there.
616
00:27:53,260 --> 00:27:54,700
So one of them being.
617
00:27:54,940 --> 00:27:58,100
Players often find WoW's
combat and talent systems overly
618
00:27:58,100 --> 00:28:01,100
complex with too many
abilities, buffs and debuffs to manage.
619
00:28:01,980 --> 00:28:07,060
So this, these new changes are
going to create or note the difficulty
620
00:28:07,060 --> 00:28:12,700
in that creates barriers for
both brand new players and returning
621
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:13,020
players.
622
00:28:13,020 --> 00:28:16,620
And this is something that
every one of us that has friends
623
00:28:16,780 --> 00:28:22,620
who have stepped away from WOW
and have tried to come back, we all
624
00:28:22,620 --> 00:28:27,180
have at least one friend
that's like, dude, I am so lost,
625
00:28:27,260 --> 00:28:28,620
I don't even know where to start.
626
00:28:29,020 --> 00:28:30,700
And that's not just with
content, right?
627
00:28:30,700 --> 00:28:33,260
That's with the skills of the game.
628
00:28:33,260 --> 00:28:33,660
Right.
629
00:28:33,820 --> 00:28:37,260
And that's honestly an art, I
think when it comes to MMO design,
630
00:28:37,260 --> 00:28:37,660
period.
631
00:28:37,820 --> 00:28:42,020
We saw it in eso, we've seen
it in other games as well, where
632
00:28:42,020 --> 00:28:47,300
a game is able to successfully
hold someone by the hand just the
633
00:28:47,300 --> 00:28:51,540
right amount to lead them from
confusion to an understanding of
634
00:28:51,540 --> 00:28:55,060
what they're doing and be able
to fully embrace the game that they're
635
00:28:55,060 --> 00:28:55,320
playing.
636
00:28:56,030 --> 00:28:59,070
And that's their goal with,
with this as well.
637
00:28:59,230 --> 00:29:00,270
Because think about it.
638
00:29:00,430 --> 00:29:03,310
How important is combat in an mmo?
639
00:29:03,310 --> 00:29:08,990
Is that not one of the most
heavily, heavily graded and judged
640
00:29:08,990 --> 00:29:12,190
things by players when any new
MMO comes out?
641
00:29:12,430 --> 00:29:15,790
We just came off of playing
Ashes of Creation and testing and
642
00:29:15,790 --> 00:29:18,790
doing all that we solve in
that community there.
643
00:29:18,790 --> 00:29:22,290
Just how important combat was,
you know, to a developing mmo?
644
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,720
Fast forward to this giant
who's been in in the ring, you know,
645
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,480
and has been holding the crown
for years at this point.
646
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,160
This is something that, and I
would, I would caution everyone who's
647
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,480
listening to, to be encouraged
by that.
648
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,239
This is not something they
take lightly because they're looking
649
00:29:38,239 --> 00:29:41,960
at this from the goal of
approachability without dumbing it
650
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:42,280
down.
651
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,240
And that's a great goal to
have because then we know as players,
652
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,560
hey, that's the focus.
653
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,920
That's one of the main focuses.
654
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:50,400
Yeah.
655
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,160
So to me, it looks like they are.
656
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,440
They're altering your combat flow.
657
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,160
And I don't know if it was last.
658
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,200
I think it was last show.
659
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,560
We were talking about how one
of the most amazing things about
660
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:07,760
World of Warcraft is that it
can be as simple or as complex as
661
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:08,800
you want it to be.
662
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,880
And at this point in 2025,
yeah, you can go out and pick flowers,
663
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,040
you can, you can turn on the
one button rotation and you can,
664
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,320
you can slam dungeons and have
no problems because now you're just
665
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,480
hitting the one button and you
can pay complete attention to the
666
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,120
poop on the ground and all the
things that you don't want to slip
667
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:30,880
and end up in.
668
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:31,280
Right.
669
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:37,200
Or you can leave the one
button rotation off and not have
670
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:43,730
a Hakili or any other combat
assisting add ons on or the native
671
00:30:43,730 --> 00:30:44,530
combat assist.
672
00:30:44,690 --> 00:30:48,450
You can have all that stuff
off and research your character and
673
00:30:48,530 --> 00:30:51,850
know what should come next
because you've studied it and you've
674
00:30:51,850 --> 00:30:55,570
practiced it and you have
become a master of your class.
675
00:30:56,530 --> 00:30:59,210
So again, the game can be as
simple as you want it to be or as
676
00:30:59,210 --> 00:31:00,530
complex as you want it to be.
677
00:31:00,930 --> 00:31:07,290
What it looks to us like
Blizzard is trying to do is to make
678
00:31:07,290 --> 00:31:12,210
that flow in between whatever
level you choose to engage in your.
679
00:31:12,210 --> 00:31:16,930
In your character's combat to
make that more efficient.
680
00:31:17,410 --> 00:31:21,650
And I'll take, I'm going to
take my class, the Resto Druid, as
681
00:31:21,650 --> 00:31:22,449
an example.
682
00:31:22,770 --> 00:31:25,650
It looks like it's going to be easier.
683
00:31:26,370 --> 00:31:30,770
They're making changes to make
it easier for me to maintain a lot
684
00:31:30,770 --> 00:31:31,490
of my.
685
00:31:31,650 --> 00:31:33,090
A lot of my big buffs.
686
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,480
Like, you know, all the stuff
that's happening in the background
687
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,960
that I know is not happening
in the background, like, you know,
688
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,440
my mastery stacks and all
these different things that I need
689
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:44,640
to keep running.
690
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,120
If I don't have hots on every.
691
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,920
It's just a simple example.
692
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,960
I'm using a regrowth, which is
one of my heels, on a Resto Druid.
693
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,520
If I use it by itself, it
doesn't heal for very much.
694
00:32:00,220 --> 00:32:03,580
But if I use it on players
that I've already placed and have
695
00:32:03,580 --> 00:32:08,060
been maintaining heals over
time on different heals over time,
696
00:32:08,460 --> 00:32:12,140
and I have stacks and stacks
of Mastery up in that top right corner
697
00:32:12,140 --> 00:32:13,660
of my screen.
698
00:32:14,140 --> 00:32:18,980
When that regrowth hits, I'll
have somebody that'll go from damn
699
00:32:18,980 --> 00:32:26,360
near dead to full in one heal
because I have maximized the amount
700
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:27,760
of stacks that they have on them.
701
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,200
And that is, that's getting
into the mastery side of your class
702
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,760
and playing it truly correct.
703
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,120
Now for Blizzard to come
through and make that flow better
704
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,960
to where it's easier to
maintain those hots.
705
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,800
And if you have one skill on,
then it refreshes another.
706
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:50,720
That's making my gameplay a
lot more fun.
707
00:32:50,890 --> 00:32:53,490
And like what's, what's one of
the things I was talking about just
708
00:32:53,490 --> 00:32:56,290
the other day, Jibs on getting
back because I rolled another Resto
709
00:32:56,290 --> 00:32:57,330
Druid in Legion Remix.
710
00:32:57,330 --> 00:33:00,010
Okay, call me crazy, but I did it.
711
00:33:00,010 --> 00:33:03,330
I rolled another Resto druid
and I'm going through remix on a
712
00:33:03,330 --> 00:33:04,650
fresh Resto druid.
713
00:33:04,650 --> 00:33:07,970
I mentioned it to a group of
friends that we were running dungeons
714
00:33:07,970 --> 00:33:12,090
with the other night that
going back to the basics of my Resto
715
00:33:12,090 --> 00:33:17,770
druid, I am having so much fun
running dungeons because there's
716
00:33:17,770 --> 00:33:20,570
a lot more cat weaving going
on where I'm able to, you know, put
717
00:33:20,570 --> 00:33:24,530
my hots on, get it, you know,
maintain my heels and hop right back
718
00:33:24,530 --> 00:33:26,850
into dealing some damage.
719
00:33:27,090 --> 00:33:28,330
And I really like that.
720
00:33:28,330 --> 00:33:31,730
But when you get into those
high mythic keys in retail, for me,
721
00:33:32,130 --> 00:33:35,250
like the cat weaving started
to disappear a little bit because
722
00:33:35,250 --> 00:33:40,810
there was so much maintenance
that I had to keep on my group in
723
00:33:40,810 --> 00:33:42,940
order to keep everybody alive.
724
00:33:43,420 --> 00:33:44,420
So that's it.
725
00:33:44,420 --> 00:33:47,180
I know that was like, like a
long tangent on it, but that's, that's
726
00:33:47,180 --> 00:33:48,340
where I'm landing on this thing.
727
00:33:48,340 --> 00:33:50,580
And we're gonna get into some
more of these bullet points on, on
728
00:33:50,580 --> 00:33:51,420
what their goals are.
729
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:55,740
But that's what I'm seeing
this as an increase in efficiency
730
00:33:55,740 --> 00:34:02,540
for my gameplay flow is going
to increase my fun factor exponentially
731
00:34:02,540 --> 00:34:04,460
and make me really love my class.
732
00:34:04,700 --> 00:34:05,220
Agreed.
733
00:34:05,220 --> 00:34:07,460
And some of those things that
they're looking at doing is again,
734
00:34:07,460 --> 00:34:09,580
you know, and you kind of
already mentioned it, but reducing
735
00:34:09,750 --> 00:34:14,110
player overload, so lowering
actions per minute for overly spammy
736
00:34:14,110 --> 00:34:17,910
specs, trimming ability, bloat
and proc overload that flood the
737
00:34:17,910 --> 00:34:22,310
ui, preventing resource
overflows that make management meaningless.
738
00:34:22,550 --> 00:34:26,110
And then the last one here,
simplifying overly complex spells
739
00:34:26,110 --> 00:34:30,150
like adaptive swarm, surge of
power and blackout combo.
740
00:34:30,470 --> 00:34:34,790
I love the fact that we are in
a place as a Warcraft community,
741
00:34:35,550 --> 00:34:40,190
that the game is at a place
where it's capable of doing things
742
00:34:40,190 --> 00:34:40,670
like this.
743
00:34:41,630 --> 00:34:46,830
It's capable of taking A hard
look at its combat, which is so.
744
00:34:48,510 --> 00:34:53,310
Dude, that is such a crucial
core element of an mmorpg.
745
00:34:53,310 --> 00:34:54,030
It's success.
746
00:34:54,270 --> 00:34:54,870
It's everything.
747
00:34:54,870 --> 00:34:56,030
It's everything.
748
00:34:56,270 --> 00:34:58,590
It has to feel right.
749
00:34:59,310 --> 00:35:00,510
There's so much.
750
00:35:00,590 --> 00:35:04,360
Oh, my gosh, there's so much
that hinges on the combat in any
751
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,040
mmo.
752
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:10,080
The fact that we're in a place
as a community and as a game that
753
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,760
they can take a hard look at
this and streamline this.
754
00:35:14,240 --> 00:35:18,160
This is great because when I
see something like this, I don't
755
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,680
necessarily think of the now.
756
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,880
I think of post last Titan.
757
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,440
I think of five years from now.
758
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,120
What does that look like for.
759
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:29,280
How was the game able to build?
760
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,920
Because they were able to
adjust now.
761
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:37,200
And I love the fact that, you
know, you talk about flow.
762
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:42,040
One of the things that they
really discussed was leaning more
763
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,600
into the archetype of your.
764
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,840
Your class because of these changes.
765
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,440
The ability to be able to lean
more into that archetype fantasy.
766
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,850
Like, for me, I'm a paladin at
heart like that.
767
00:35:54,850 --> 00:35:55,610
I love it.
768
00:35:55,850 --> 00:35:56,770
I love it.
769
00:35:56,770 --> 00:36:02,410
And Legion has brought out in
me the absolute, no doubt protection
770
00:36:02,810 --> 00:36:03,930
Paladin in me.
771
00:36:04,090 --> 00:36:04,890
This is true.
772
00:36:05,050 --> 00:36:10,250
Because if you could wield a
lightforged sword in real life, you
773
00:36:10,250 --> 00:36:10,530
would.
774
00:36:10,530 --> 00:36:13,530
But it turns out law
enforcement frowns upon that, so
775
00:36:13,530 --> 00:36:14,610
you probably shouldn't do that.
776
00:36:14,610 --> 00:36:15,370
Turns out you.
777
00:36:15,450 --> 00:36:17,370
You probably don't want to
walk down the street with one of
778
00:36:17,370 --> 00:36:17,490
those.
779
00:36:17,490 --> 00:36:18,410
I can't imagine why.
780
00:36:18,410 --> 00:36:18,810
No.
781
00:36:19,050 --> 00:36:20,825
Yeah, you're either going to
get tased or you're going to.
782
00:36:20,890 --> 00:36:21,610
Gonna get shot.
783
00:36:21,770 --> 00:36:23,770
So don't do it.
784
00:36:24,170 --> 00:36:25,130
Don't do that thing.
785
00:36:25,210 --> 00:36:26,890
And you did not hear that from amr.
786
00:36:28,490 --> 00:36:31,730
But, yeah, it's just, you
know, it's leaning being able to
787
00:36:31,730 --> 00:36:32,490
lean more in a class.
788
00:36:32,490 --> 00:36:34,090
Fancy eliminating bloat.
789
00:36:34,090 --> 00:36:38,490
And they're also talking about
a new goal of easy to learn, challenging
790
00:36:38,490 --> 00:36:39,210
to master.
791
00:36:39,450 --> 00:36:40,650
There you go, dude.
792
00:36:40,890 --> 00:36:41,610
Goalpost.
793
00:36:41,610 --> 00:36:42,010
We.
794
00:36:42,250 --> 00:36:43,050
Exactly.
795
00:36:43,130 --> 00:36:44,330
This is what you want.
796
00:36:44,730 --> 00:36:48,700
This is what you want in any
game that you love.
797
00:36:49,020 --> 00:36:51,660
You want it to be
approachable, but you want to be
798
00:36:51,660 --> 00:36:55,980
able to see Cash when someone
has mastered that class.
799
00:36:56,060 --> 00:36:56,540
Yes.
800
00:36:56,780 --> 00:37:01,140
This is breaking down the
barriers to entry to where there's
801
00:37:01,140 --> 00:37:01,740
little to none.
802
00:37:01,740 --> 00:37:01,980
Right.
803
00:37:01,980 --> 00:37:03,660
And some classes are going to
be harder than others.
804
00:37:04,220 --> 00:37:08,420
I hate to bring up the
elephant in the room, but Beastmaster
805
00:37:08,420 --> 00:37:08,980
Hunter, right?
806
00:37:08,980 --> 00:37:09,420
It is.
807
00:37:09,420 --> 00:37:12,700
It's recommended as beginning
class, and it's easy to play.
808
00:37:13,090 --> 00:37:14,850
It's easy to play, and it's
super fun to play.
809
00:37:14,850 --> 00:37:19,570
You just stand in the back and
you fling 20 sticks and it works.
810
00:37:19,890 --> 00:37:23,610
But there is still complexity
to that class and the way that I
811
00:37:23,610 --> 00:37:24,370
bring that I'm.
812
00:37:24,370 --> 00:37:25,730
Dude, I, I play.
813
00:37:25,970 --> 00:37:27,290
I love Beastmaster Hunter.
814
00:37:27,290 --> 00:37:27,730
I love it.
815
00:37:27,730 --> 00:37:28,570
Oh, I love Hunter.
816
00:37:28,570 --> 00:37:29,169
I love a good.
817
00:37:29,250 --> 00:37:30,290
I love Hunters.
818
00:37:30,290 --> 00:37:33,330
Like that is if I'm, if I'm
talking Druid Hunters, man, it's
819
00:37:33,330 --> 00:37:35,370
like they're right next to
each other.
820
00:37:35,370 --> 00:37:38,520
For me, I just, I landed on
Druid for, for quite a while now.
821
00:37:38,750 --> 00:37:44,310
But when you have that range,
that ability to have that range to
822
00:37:44,310 --> 00:37:47,150
where you can play the class
as simple as you want, or you can
823
00:37:47,150 --> 00:37:50,190
dive into the nuts and bolts
and nuts and bolts are still going
824
00:37:50,190 --> 00:37:52,670
to be there friends for you to
pick up and put together.
825
00:37:53,230 --> 00:37:56,670
And this is what I think about
like everybody knows that you have
826
00:37:56,670 --> 00:38:02,190
a million utility skills on
pick a class, any class, there's
827
00:38:02,190 --> 00:38:03,550
a million utility skills.
828
00:38:03,950 --> 00:38:10,250
How many of you have truly
mastered your rotation and use of
829
00:38:10,250 --> 00:38:11,570
all those utility skills?
830
00:38:11,570 --> 00:38:12,370
I haven't.
831
00:38:12,450 --> 00:38:13,530
I definitely haven't.
832
00:38:13,530 --> 00:38:17,130
It would probably take me
years to do so.
833
00:38:17,130 --> 00:38:19,530
It would take anybody years to
do so, you know, except for some
834
00:38:19,530 --> 00:38:21,450
of the most skilled folks out there.
835
00:38:21,450 --> 00:38:23,650
And there's a bunch, there's a
bunch of people out there way better
836
00:38:23,650 --> 00:38:24,530
gamers than I am.
837
00:38:24,610 --> 00:38:29,530
But this is going to allow you
to have less time setting up your
838
00:38:29,530 --> 00:38:33,240
basic kit, whatever it may be,
healing, tanking, DPSing.
839
00:38:33,240 --> 00:38:38,840
You get your basic kit up and
you really start, you know, down
840
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:43,080
that path of okay, my rotation
is really hitting hard.
841
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,520
It's looking good right now.
842
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,880
Now you will have a little bit
extra time to consider utilizing
843
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:55,160
situationally some of those
additional utility skills.
844
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:56,760
So I think this is a win.
845
00:38:57,230 --> 00:38:59,950
As easy as you want it to be,
as difficult as you want it to be.
846
00:39:00,350 --> 00:39:02,630
It's exciting, you know, and
it's hard.
847
00:39:02,630 --> 00:39:04,790
It can be a hard pill to
swallow for a lot of players.
848
00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:08,110
And I totally get it because
we're seeing, we're hearing about
849
00:39:08,190 --> 00:39:11,190
something before we're seeing
it, you know, before we're seeing
850
00:39:11,190 --> 00:39:12,030
it in action.
851
00:39:12,430 --> 00:39:15,470
And we're seeing, you know,
kind of the results of the labor,
852
00:39:15,790 --> 00:39:20,510
whether good or bad, or good
or bad, depending on the player you
853
00:39:20,510 --> 00:39:21,070
talk to.
854
00:39:21,550 --> 00:39:26,920
And as a result, it's really,
really important to those who are
855
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,480
in this right now when you are
in the Alpha.
856
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:31,640
So really give that feedback.
857
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,560
So like right now, the first
Alpha wave, they're rebuilding all
858
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:40,080
40 specs, all of them using
these design goals.
859
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,080
That's insane.
860
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:42,680
Insane.
861
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,840
And then they're going to be
doing level lock testing at first.
862
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,000
Hero and Apex talents are
going to be coming later.
863
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,800
Blizzard is, is looking for
feedback on how how well goals are
864
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,120
met for each spec, any
remaining clarity or visibility issues,
865
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,480
and whether builds feel
complete or various content types
866
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,960
so like Dungeons, Delves,
Raids, PvP, etc.
867
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,960
Overall, like this is kind of
the capstone on this thing.
868
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,680
Overall this is Blizzard's message.
869
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,280
Quote we want WOW to be a game
for everyone.
870
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,550
Whether you're new, returning
or chasing mythic world firsts.
871
00:40:15,870 --> 00:40:20,990
Midnight should make combat
clearer, fun and rewarding.
872
00:40:20,990 --> 00:40:21,790
End quote.
873
00:40:22,750 --> 00:40:23,630
That's what you want.
874
00:40:24,350 --> 00:40:28,230
That's what you want from a We
have seen a lot of MMOs come and
875
00:40:28,230 --> 00:40:28,510
go.
876
00:40:29,390 --> 00:40:29,990
Divines.
877
00:40:29,990 --> 00:40:30,829
No divines.
878
00:40:30,829 --> 00:40:31,470
I'm thinking yes.
879
00:40:31,470 --> 00:40:36,070
So Titans know we have covered
many of them, probably more than
880
00:40:36,070 --> 00:40:37,390
we should have realistically.
881
00:40:37,550 --> 00:40:39,950
And you've seen a lot of
niches come and go.
882
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:44,960
But when you can have a game
that aims to be for everyone, that
883
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:50,920
aims to give you the the
ability to play and also push to
884
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:55,520
master if you so choose to
have an easy game, easy kind of quote
885
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,360
unquote cozy we talk how we
discuss it here.
886
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,920
Cozy Warcraft experience or
you can be up there dripping with
887
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,200
sweat and taking dirt naps
with Jibs and Mythics.
888
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,700
This is exactly what where you
want to be, where you can make a
889
00:41:07,700 --> 00:41:12,460
game for everyone and players
can choose how invested, how difficult
890
00:41:12,460 --> 00:41:13,180
they want to make it.
891
00:41:13,180 --> 00:41:16,300
I'm decoding that entire
message you just said you're going
892
00:41:16,300 --> 00:41:18,420
to turn on the one button
rotation, aren't you and go into
893
00:41:18,420 --> 00:41:19,260
Mythics with us.
894
00:41:21,260 --> 00:41:25,140
I mean I may, I may not tell
you just for kicks and giggles.
895
00:41:25,140 --> 00:41:28,660
You know what man, I don't
disparage it at all because we've
896
00:41:28,660 --> 00:41:33,950
heard it even with our own,
with our own friends and I'm gonna
897
00:41:33,950 --> 00:41:37,550
shout him out here because
he's a good friend of ours and we've
898
00:41:37,550 --> 00:41:39,390
played games together for a
long time.
899
00:41:40,030 --> 00:41:43,710
Tested Weevil, our buddy
Tested Weevil.
900
00:41:44,830 --> 00:41:47,430
Don't ask me where he got his
name because I still don't know.
901
00:41:47,430 --> 00:41:49,390
I think he told the story one
time and I don't remember what it
902
00:41:49,390 --> 00:41:49,590
was.
903
00:41:49,590 --> 00:41:50,430
So sorry.
904
00:41:50,510 --> 00:41:52,070
I think of it like a badger
every time.
905
00:41:52,070 --> 00:41:54,030
I know has nothing to do with
it but that's where my head goes.
906
00:41:54,510 --> 00:41:55,070
He's.
907
00:41:55,070 --> 00:42:01,700
He's just this super kind
hearted gentleman and he's been a
908
00:42:01,700 --> 00:42:04,300
friend of ours for a long time
playing games for a long time and
909
00:42:04,300 --> 00:42:08,420
he's getting back into
Warcraft and he wants to run content
910
00:42:08,420 --> 00:42:13,940
with us but he's like super
hesitant at times and we convinced
911
00:42:13,940 --> 00:42:19,860
him turn on the one button
rotation and just have fun with us
912
00:42:20,180 --> 00:42:22,420
and then we're in the middle
of these dungeons.
913
00:42:23,140 --> 00:42:26,620
After some time, he's been
using this thing and his DPS is going
914
00:42:26,620 --> 00:42:26,940
up.
915
00:42:27,020 --> 00:42:28,180
He's having more fun.
916
00:42:28,180 --> 00:42:29,500
He's cracking jokes.
917
00:42:29,500 --> 00:42:31,140
He's not so nervous.
918
00:42:31,140 --> 00:42:35,340
He's not like freaking out
about his dps and he's just enjoying
919
00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:36,140
the game more.
920
00:42:36,220 --> 00:42:40,060
That's one story of one person
that we know.
921
00:42:40,140 --> 00:42:40,780
Oh, yeah.
922
00:42:40,940 --> 00:42:44,660
Where changes that Blizzard is
making to make the game more accessible
923
00:42:44,660 --> 00:42:47,660
for everybody is working.
924
00:42:47,820 --> 00:42:52,790
And even if you use that one
button rotation, to learn your class
925
00:42:53,190 --> 00:42:55,870
and then turn everything back
on when you're more comfortable with
926
00:42:55,870 --> 00:42:57,710
it, do it that way.
927
00:42:57,710 --> 00:42:59,030
If that's the way you want to
do it.
928
00:42:59,430 --> 00:43:00,390
You know, use.
929
00:43:00,550 --> 00:43:03,670
Use the rotation assist,
whatever it takes.
930
00:43:03,830 --> 00:43:05,350
These tools are there.
931
00:43:05,510 --> 00:43:07,990
You think of all the games
that are out there that don't have
932
00:43:07,990 --> 00:43:11,270
anything like this to make the
game more accessible for people.
933
00:43:11,670 --> 00:43:14,710
After 20 plus years, Blizzard is.
934
00:43:14,790 --> 00:43:20,320
They have the time, they have
the know how and they have the foresight
935
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,920
to be able to make this game
accessible for.
936
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,760
For more people at their level
at that time.
937
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:26,920
And I think it's.
938
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,240
I think it's a wonderful thing.
939
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,160
I'm in full support of this.
940
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,320
We don't know how the combat
changes are going to turn out.
941
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,440
We have not had enough
feedback for it yet.
942
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:37,360
But I have very high hopes.
943
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:38,800
On paper, this looks great.
944
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,680
On paper, I'm super stoked,
super excited.
945
00:43:42,150 --> 00:43:45,390
I can't wait to play that
thing to see how it.
946
00:43:45,390 --> 00:43:48,550
To see how it feels, to see
how it's turned out, to be able to
947
00:43:48,550 --> 00:43:51,030
give feedback whenever we can,
you know, that sort of thing.
948
00:43:51,190 --> 00:43:51,990
I love it.
949
00:43:52,070 --> 00:43:53,030
Super stoked.
950
00:43:53,350 --> 00:43:54,070
I love this.
951
00:43:54,550 --> 00:43:55,910
Pop quiz, hotshot.
952
00:43:56,390 --> 00:43:57,430
Is it gonna fly?
953
00:43:57,669 --> 00:43:58,990
Oh, wow, that's a low.
954
00:43:58,990 --> 00:43:59,830
That's not fair.
955
00:43:59,910 --> 00:44:00,870
It's not even out.
956
00:44:01,190 --> 00:44:02,510
Hang on, hang on.
957
00:44:02,510 --> 00:44:03,750
Neither was the other thing we did.
958
00:44:03,750 --> 00:44:04,870
Is it gonna fly?
959
00:44:06,150 --> 00:44:06,870
You know what?
960
00:44:07,110 --> 00:44:08,230
I'm not gonna answer.
961
00:44:08,830 --> 00:44:11,310
I want to know if the audience
thinks it's gonna fly.
962
00:44:11,790 --> 00:44:13,030
Yeah, I'll tell you.
963
00:44:13,030 --> 00:44:14,030
It's not gonna fly.
964
00:44:14,270 --> 00:44:15,790
The glare coming off your head.
965
00:44:16,270 --> 00:44:17,070
Can I do that?
966
00:44:17,070 --> 00:44:17,710
I'm doing it.
967
00:44:17,710 --> 00:44:18,910
That's what's gonna happen, folks.
968
00:44:19,310 --> 00:44:19,870
I want to hear.
969
00:44:19,870 --> 00:44:20,990
He asked me permission.
970
00:44:22,110 --> 00:44:23,070
Do whatever you want.
971
00:44:24,189 --> 00:44:26,550
Yes, folks, is this gonna fly?
972
00:44:26,550 --> 00:44:29,310
And if you know what that
means, then you know, you listen
973
00:44:29,310 --> 00:44:30,430
to episode number one.
974
00:44:30,430 --> 00:44:31,710
But anyway, let us know.
975
00:44:31,870 --> 00:44:33,510
Is the combat changes gonna fly?
976
00:44:33,510 --> 00:44:34,910
Let us know in the comments on Spotify.
977
00:44:34,910 --> 00:44:37,980
A lot of you are talking
there, even on YouTube as well.
978
00:44:38,460 --> 00:44:41,260
You know, let us know, dude.
979
00:44:41,260 --> 00:44:42,380
It's time for snark.
980
00:44:42,460 --> 00:44:46,060
Ooh, friends, we missed Snark.
981
00:44:46,060 --> 00:44:50,620
Last week we missed it very,
very badly because Snark is super
982
00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:51,020
fun.
983
00:44:51,500 --> 00:44:56,300
If you don't know, here at
Azeroth Morning Radio, our goblins
984
00:44:56,460 --> 00:44:58,060
have made an invention for us.
985
00:44:58,060 --> 00:45:01,780
We have a little contraption
that picks some topics for us to
986
00:45:01,780 --> 00:45:02,940
discuss throughout the week.
987
00:45:02,940 --> 00:45:06,100
So we got a new topic coming
up with Snark.
988
00:45:06,180 --> 00:45:10,260
It stands for the segment
navigator and randomizer Kiosk.
989
00:45:10,980 --> 00:45:12,260
Fired up boys.
990
00:45:19,140 --> 00:45:20,579
Snark online.
991
00:45:26,420 --> 00:45:28,900
All right, apparently that was
an Earthen or Tauren, depending on
992
00:45:28,900 --> 00:45:29,820
what episode you're listening to.
993
00:45:29,820 --> 00:45:32,380
Yeah, depending on whether or
not they visited the taco stand in
994
00:45:32,380 --> 00:45:32,910
Dornagal.
995
00:45:36,740 --> 00:45:39,220
I'd say a little more moist
after that taco stain.
996
00:45:40,020 --> 00:45:40,580
Okay.
997
00:45:40,580 --> 00:45:42,740
Sorry about that, Jibs.
998
00:45:42,740 --> 00:45:43,620
Why did it pop out?
999
00:45:43,620 --> 00:45:47,460
All right, so YouTube loot crate.
1000
00:45:49,460 --> 00:45:51,220
All right, so here's how we'll
do this.
1001
00:45:51,460 --> 00:45:54,540
We'll scour YouTube and find
an interesting World of Warcraft
1002
00:45:54,540 --> 00:45:59,060
related video, give credit to
the creator, and discuss the spoils.
1003
00:46:00,180 --> 00:46:00,820
Today is.
1004
00:46:02,340 --> 00:46:04,500
Luckily we prepared for this
before the show.
1005
00:46:07,700 --> 00:46:08,660
We're doing it live.
1006
00:46:08,820 --> 00:46:09,300
Yeah.
1007
00:46:09,620 --> 00:46:15,060
So, friends, I came across a
very cool video that was by Teddles
1008
00:46:15,139 --> 00:46:16,140
on YouTube.
1009
00:46:16,140 --> 00:46:18,900
And this video is entitled the
Seven Layer.
1010
00:46:19,140 --> 00:46:20,140
Seven Layer Dip.
1011
00:46:20,140 --> 00:46:20,900
Is that what it is?
1012
00:46:20,900 --> 00:46:21,860
Seven layer dip.
1013
00:46:24,020 --> 00:46:24,820
Hey, yeah.
1014
00:46:24,900 --> 00:46:26,260
Learn to read, baldy.
1015
00:46:26,260 --> 00:46:27,060
I was about to say.
1016
00:46:27,060 --> 00:46:27,360
Ready?
1017
00:46:27,590 --> 00:46:29,670
Redo take two.
1018
00:46:31,030 --> 00:46:34,150
Okay, now, teddles YouTube video.
1019
00:46:34,710 --> 00:46:36,710
Amazing video title.
1020
00:46:37,350 --> 00:46:40,470
The seven levels of world of
Warcraft players.
1021
00:46:41,350 --> 00:46:44,710
And I wanted to go through
this a little bit.
1022
00:46:45,270 --> 00:46:50,230
We're gonna fire through what,
what these levels are and try and
1023
00:46:50,230 --> 00:46:56,160
figure out where we land in
these different levels of World of
1024
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:57,040
Warcraft player.
1025
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,920
And yeah, be thinking
listeners, where, where you're at
1026
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:01,320
as well as we, as we go
through these.
1027
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,160
I got a feeling we're gonna be
a blend of some of these.
1028
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,760
But yeah, I think I'm.
1029
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,800
I think I'm pretty solid on
one of these.
1030
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:08,720
On one of these levels.
1031
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:10,480
But anyway, let's go through this.
1032
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:11,920
This video is.
1033
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:17,960
Is really fun and I think it's
incredibly accurate, to be honest
1034
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:18,360
with you.
1035
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,790
So anyway, it starts from
level one, goes all the way to level
1036
00:47:21,790 --> 00:47:28,710
seven, and it basically
details player activity and why they
1037
00:47:28,710 --> 00:47:31,110
would be put into these
different levels of players.
1038
00:47:31,190 --> 00:47:34,630
So level one and you got to be
paying attention because you got
1039
00:47:34,630 --> 00:47:35,830
to level yourself, bro.
1040
00:47:36,070 --> 00:47:39,590
I need this because there's,
there's a test at the end of this.
1041
00:47:41,430 --> 00:47:41,990
Okay.
1042
00:47:41,990 --> 00:47:46,070
Level one, according to
Teddles is the tourist or the explorer.
1043
00:47:46,070 --> 00:47:51,580
Now this is a casual player
logs in, wanders around, catches
1044
00:47:51,580 --> 00:47:54,580
some, a little bit of lore,
maybe does some low level dungeons
1045
00:47:54,580 --> 00:47:55,700
and some quest Lines.
1046
00:47:55,940 --> 00:47:58,500
So basically playing for like story.
1047
00:47:58,820 --> 00:48:00,660
Ooh, this is a really pretty area.
1048
00:48:01,540 --> 00:48:06,340
Some social stuff and is like
challenge or pressure.
1049
00:48:06,420 --> 00:48:07,620
Nah, not for me.
1050
00:48:07,620 --> 00:48:08,500
That's level one.
1051
00:48:08,660 --> 00:48:09,220
Okay.
1052
00:48:09,940 --> 00:48:10,740
Level two.
1053
00:48:10,740 --> 00:48:13,590
This is the casual, the true
casual or social player.
1054
00:48:14,140 --> 00:48:15,860
A little bit more frequent
play than Level 1.
1055
00:48:15,860 --> 00:48:19,580
They participate in social
content, so things like pet battles,
1056
00:48:20,060 --> 00:48:21,580
achievements, world events.
1057
00:48:21,740 --> 00:48:24,180
But they don't really stress
about optimization of their.
1058
00:48:24,180 --> 00:48:24,820
Of their character.
1059
00:48:24,820 --> 00:48:26,060
They don't care what their eye
level is.
1060
00:48:26,060 --> 00:48:26,500
Okay?
1061
00:48:26,500 --> 00:48:26,860
They're just.
1062
00:48:26,860 --> 00:48:27,820
They're playing to have fun.
1063
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:29,020
Then there's level three.
1064
00:48:29,020 --> 00:48:31,980
This is the quote unquote
normal player.
1065
00:48:32,620 --> 00:48:35,900
These players are keeping up
with the expansion, doing dungeons
1066
00:48:36,700 --> 00:48:38,300
raiding at a moderate level.
1067
00:48:38,300 --> 00:48:41,940
Maybe they're doing some lfr,
maybe they're dabbling in some heroic.
1068
00:48:42,820 --> 00:48:47,220
They're digging into gearing
and they're looking up guides like
1069
00:48:47,220 --> 00:48:48,900
Zygor is their friend, right?
1070
00:48:48,980 --> 00:48:50,180
Wowhead is their friend.
1071
00:48:50,820 --> 00:48:51,940
So they want to keep up.
1072
00:48:52,340 --> 00:48:56,620
They like the challenge, but
maybe not have the time or the inkling
1073
00:48:56,620 --> 00:48:59,220
to push too, too hard.
1074
00:49:00,260 --> 00:49:01,140
That's level three.
1075
00:49:01,780 --> 00:49:05,940
Level four, the optimizer and
theory crafter.
1076
00:49:06,340 --> 00:49:10,160
Now these are the people that
pay very close attention to numbers.
1077
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,160
They might have a spreadsheet
or two.
1078
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:13,680
They like stats.
1079
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,360
They're looking at builds.
1080
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,240
They're looking at best
rotations and practicing them.
1081
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:23,120
They're looking at Sims logs,
aiming to play well, aiming to play
1082
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:29,440
efficiently, caring about
pushing dps like they are looking
1083
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:31,360
at those numbers.
1084
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,800
I don't know if you're aware
of this, but there is a neon arrow
1085
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,160
that has appeared above you
and is flashing down upon you right
1086
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:38,440
now.
1087
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,240
You don't know whether or not
that's me.
1088
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:43,520
You don't know Jon nothing.
1089
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:44,280
Jon Snow.
1090
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:45,320
She is.
1091
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:48,040
Okay.
1092
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:48,920
You might be right.
1093
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,080
Okay, Level five.
1094
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,080
All right, get into the
serious here.
1095
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:55,800
We're definitely out of the casual.
1096
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,240
This is the competitive or the
flagship player.
1097
00:49:59,730 --> 00:50:01,930
Now, these players are doing
high level content, right?
1098
00:50:01,930 --> 00:50:04,130
They're pushing mystic, mythic plush.
1099
00:50:05,250 --> 00:50:07,010
Wow, wow.
1100
00:50:08,850 --> 00:50:11,010
Let me remove whatever's in my mouth.
1101
00:50:12,770 --> 00:50:14,530
They are pushing high keys.
1102
00:50:14,850 --> 00:50:16,810
They may be the top in logs.
1103
00:50:16,810 --> 00:50:19,170
They're striving for the
highest rankings they can get.
1104
00:50:19,490 --> 00:50:24,290
They are motivated by
competition, performance, mastery.
1105
00:50:25,100 --> 00:50:27,100
That's level five, the
competitive player.
1106
00:50:28,300 --> 00:50:29,740
Now here's level six.
1107
00:50:30,460 --> 00:50:33,420
Okay, Starting to get freaking
super scary.
1108
00:50:33,740 --> 00:50:34,780
Yeah, no kidding.
1109
00:50:34,940 --> 00:50:38,540
These are among some of the
most elite players at level six.
1110
00:50:38,540 --> 00:50:41,340
These are the Raiders, the
world first aspirants.
1111
00:50:41,660 --> 00:50:42,220
Okay.
1112
00:50:42,700 --> 00:50:44,700
Their focus is on endgame raids.
1113
00:50:45,660 --> 00:50:50,260
All they're doing throughout
the week is making sure their characters
1114
00:50:50,260 --> 00:50:50,780
are ready.
1115
00:50:51,420 --> 00:50:53,580
They're farming stuff for crafting.
1116
00:50:53,900 --> 00:50:58,300
They're crafting the best
possible potions and foods for their
1117
00:50:58,300 --> 00:50:58,860
guilds.
1118
00:50:59,660 --> 00:51:02,460
Their focus is on world progression.
1119
00:51:02,940 --> 00:51:07,020
Being in a top guild, which
that is difficult to do.
1120
00:51:07,020 --> 00:51:13,780
Friends, if you've ever raided
at top levels, there are some serious
1121
00:51:13,780 --> 00:51:15,820
parameters to get into some of
these guilds.
1122
00:51:15,980 --> 00:51:20,310
But these level six world
first aspirants are looking for cutting
1123
00:51:20,310 --> 00:51:21,110
edge strategies.
1124
00:51:21,190 --> 00:51:21,830
Okay.
1125
00:51:22,070 --> 00:51:23,670
Their time investment is high.
1126
00:51:24,230 --> 00:51:29,070
They're focused on
optimization and all facets of mechanics
1127
00:51:29,070 --> 00:51:33,270
of the game, their gear and
group synergy, which is super important,
1128
00:51:33,350 --> 00:51:34,870
which is practice, practice, practice.
1129
00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:35,830
Okay.
1130
00:51:36,470 --> 00:51:41,030
Finally at level seven, neck bearders.
1131
00:51:41,590 --> 00:51:42,630
That's all it says.
1132
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:44,720
I'm just kidding.
1133
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:46,240
So.
1134
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:51,040
So this is the point 1% that
is probably not listening to Azeroth
1135
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,920
morning radio right now
because they're too busy trying to
1136
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:55,920
perfect their stuff.
1137
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:58,120
The 0.1%.
1138
00:51:58,120 --> 00:51:59,920
This is called the Beast or
the Perfectionist.
1139
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:01,920
Absolutely pushing the limits.
1140
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:06,240
Every millisecond, every
mechanic, every point one, every
1141
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,000
piece of gear is optimized.
1142
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:09,840
They live and breathe.
1143
00:52:10,670 --> 00:52:10,990
Wow.
1144
00:52:11,710 --> 00:52:12,110
They.
1145
00:52:12,110 --> 00:52:14,430
This might may or may not be
their full time job.
1146
00:52:14,990 --> 00:52:15,390
Right.
1147
00:52:15,870 --> 00:52:18,030
The game is central to these
people's identity.
1148
00:52:18,590 --> 00:52:21,950
They're testing theory,
they're pushing new tactics, they're
1149
00:52:21,950 --> 00:52:23,950
breaking the meta.
1150
00:52:24,590 --> 00:52:25,070
It's.
1151
00:52:25,150 --> 00:52:29,030
It's a pretty far cry from the
tourist or the explorer.
1152
00:52:29,030 --> 00:52:30,990
Yeah, absolutely right.
1153
00:52:31,150 --> 00:52:33,150
And again, it shows the range
of this game.
1154
00:52:33,870 --> 00:52:34,350
Yes.
1155
00:52:34,350 --> 00:52:34,870
Thank you.
1156
00:52:34,870 --> 00:52:35,390
Yep.
1157
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:36,040
Yep.
1158
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:36,920
Are you gonna go there?
1159
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:38,600
That's exactly where I was
gonna go.
1160
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:39,080
Yeah.
1161
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,200
It's the beauty of this game
is you can be anything.
1162
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,000
Anything from level one to
level seven.
1163
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:45,960
Anything in between.
1164
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:47,720
You can be a mix of all those things.
1165
00:52:47,720 --> 00:52:48,600
Oh, sweetheart.
1166
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,040
You could do anything you want
in your life.
1167
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:51,240
Just put your mind to it.
1168
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,200
I want to be the tourist.
1169
00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,200
When you compare it to the
Beast, I want to be the tourist.
1170
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:00,560
So.
1171
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,690
Okay, so there it is.
1172
00:53:03,090 --> 00:53:03,450
We.
1173
00:53:03,450 --> 00:53:05,090
We've laid down the gauntlet.
1174
00:53:06,450 --> 00:53:07,970
I think you already did it.
1175
00:53:08,290 --> 00:53:12,930
But I want you to tell me
where I'm at.
1176
00:53:13,730 --> 00:53:16,690
You are absolutely, without a doubt.
1177
00:53:17,490 --> 00:53:19,570
Now I will preface this with
saying this.
1178
00:53:19,970 --> 00:53:23,490
You can be any one of these
depending on the day and the time.
1179
00:53:23,650 --> 00:53:24,490
I don't think.
1180
00:53:24,490 --> 00:53:27,990
And I'm thinking for speaking
to you specifically, I don't believe
1181
00:53:27,990 --> 00:53:29,750
you ever go above level five.
1182
00:53:30,230 --> 00:53:33,070
I don't believe that you're
ever above the competitive slash
1183
00:53:33,070 --> 00:53:35,630
flagship player like the
raider world first aspirant.
1184
00:53:35,630 --> 00:53:36,190
Like, that's not you.
1185
00:53:36,190 --> 00:53:36,870
The 0.1%.
1186
00:53:36,870 --> 00:53:37,510
That's not you.
1187
00:53:37,510 --> 00:53:40,790
I feel like up to level five
is, is where you're at.
1188
00:53:40,950 --> 00:53:44,430
You can be any one of those
under that.
1189
00:53:44,430 --> 00:53:48,270
So you could be the Taurus,
the casual, the, the casual social
1190
00:53:48,270 --> 00:53:51,350
player, the norm, quote
unquote, normal player, the optimizer.
1191
00:53:51,510 --> 00:53:52,920
You're very much an optimizer.
1192
00:53:53,230 --> 00:53:54,430
That is 100% you.
1193
00:53:54,430 --> 00:53:58,350
However, you can be any of the
other things up to level five, depending
1194
00:53:58,350 --> 00:53:58,910
on the day.
1195
00:53:58,990 --> 00:53:59,390
Right.
1196
00:53:59,710 --> 00:54:04,990
But if I had to pick one, if
I'm forcing myself to pick one.
1197
00:54:06,030 --> 00:54:09,630
You are absolutely a level 4
optimizer slash theory crafter.
1198
00:54:10,030 --> 00:54:14,830
You are very passionate and
this is specifically taken a more
1199
00:54:14,830 --> 00:54:19,320
intense turn here within the
last several weeks due to your intense
1200
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,640
desire to master your class.
1201
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,000
Especially after finding
Ragnon's videos and really putting
1202
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:25,720
them into practice.
1203
00:54:25,720 --> 00:54:30,280
I watched your healing change
after you watch those videos.
1204
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:35,360
You are without a doubt a
level four optimizer, theory crafter.
1205
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:35,960
Okay.
1206
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:42,360
And I, I 100% believe that
that's where you're at is level four.
1207
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:43,480
That's where I'm at.
1208
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:44,040
Yeah.
1209
00:54:45,020 --> 00:54:45,260
Really?
1210
00:54:45,420 --> 00:54:45,980
Yep.
1211
00:54:46,140 --> 00:54:48,060
That's what, that's where I
feel you're at.
1212
00:54:48,380 --> 00:54:54,420
You may dabble in level three,
which is the normal player, but I
1213
00:54:54,420 --> 00:54:54,780
think.
1214
00:54:55,100 --> 00:55:00,259
And maybe it's, maybe it's due
to time constraints, but I 100% think
1215
00:55:00,259 --> 00:55:00,860
that you're.
1216
00:55:01,180 --> 00:55:02,140
You're level four.
1217
00:55:02,140 --> 00:55:02,540
Really?
1218
00:55:02,540 --> 00:55:02,980
Huh.
1219
00:55:02,980 --> 00:55:08,860
And, and may maybe if it's not
necessarily paying super close attention
1220
00:55:08,860 --> 00:55:11,920
to numbers and stats and
builds and rotations and stuff like
1221
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:17,080
that in PvE, you are most
definitely doing it in PvP.
1222
00:55:19,240 --> 00:55:20,360
And you're good at it.
1223
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:21,560
Oh, thank you.
1224
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,320
Yeah, I, I think, I think
that's where we're at.
1225
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:28,040
And honestly, like for our
show, I don't know, maybe we're a
1226
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:28,240
little.
1227
00:55:28,240 --> 00:55:30,520
Maybe we out leveled our own
show a little bit.
1228
00:55:31,720 --> 00:55:33,800
Maybe we should be a three or
a two.
1229
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,680
I honestly though, I re.
1230
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,280
I've really firmly blown this.
1231
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,800
Like if I don't have a ton of
time, I may be a level three or a
1232
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:42,960
level one that night.
1233
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:44,800
You know, I'll tell you this.
1234
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:48,080
If I have a whole day of
gameplay that I.
1235
00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:49,480
You're seven, you're a seven.
1236
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:54,160
Then if I know the max, I
personally feel like ever go is a
1237
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:54,480
five.
1238
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:56,880
And that is strictly.
1239
00:55:58,240 --> 00:56:00,960
Unless until I can get
comfortable in like the higher end
1240
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:01,920
PvE stuff.
1241
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:02,640
Strictly.
1242
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:07,240
That's PvP for me because I
know the system, I've been in it
1243
00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:09,160
for so long and I'm just trying.
1244
00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:10,840
I'm very goal oriented.
1245
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:12,360
That's just how I am.
1246
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,280
And I'm just trying
desperately to get the freaking elite
1247
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:16,000
Transmog.
1248
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:17,400
And I'm so close to my rating.
1249
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,400
I'm like 500 rating and I'll
have It.
1250
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:21,840
And so I'm just trying to
knock that thing out.
1251
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:22,840
If I have a full Saturday.
1252
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,720
If you have a full Saturday,
dude, you're, like.
1253
00:56:24,720 --> 00:56:27,280
You're, like, yelling,
screaming, and looking up stats and
1254
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:27,720
putting.
1255
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:28,280
Freaking.
1256
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,480
Putting in applications and,
like, I have a Saturday off.
1257
00:56:31,820 --> 00:56:33,020
Let me into method.
1258
00:56:33,740 --> 00:56:34,700
Let's do this.
1259
00:56:35,260 --> 00:56:36,300
Let's do this.
1260
00:56:36,940 --> 00:56:39,460
Oh, you know, one thing I
really, honestly, though, one thing
1261
00:56:39,460 --> 00:56:43,580
I would love to get more into
into generally is I love.
1262
00:56:44,140 --> 00:56:46,460
I genuinely love the pacing of raids.
1263
00:56:46,860 --> 00:56:49,980
I love the pace of Raids
versus Mythics.
1264
00:56:50,460 --> 00:56:52,940
It's like, there's a certain
level of.
1265
00:56:53,340 --> 00:56:57,620
And I'm not talking, like, you
know, like, mythics or anything crazy.
1266
00:56:57,620 --> 00:56:59,290
I'm just, like, on a normal raid.
1267
00:56:59,610 --> 00:57:01,050
I love that pace, bro.
1268
00:57:01,290 --> 00:57:02,010
That's fun.
1269
00:57:02,090 --> 00:57:03,170
That's chill fun.
1270
00:57:03,170 --> 00:57:06,010
But would you like the pace of
mythic raids?
1271
00:57:06,330 --> 00:57:12,130
I don't know that that is in
the cards ever, but, I mean, let's
1272
00:57:12,130 --> 00:57:12,490
be honest.
1273
00:57:12,490 --> 00:57:14,090
We're Cusho for the 99%.
1274
00:57:14,410 --> 00:57:16,250
I fall in that 99%.
1275
00:57:16,730 --> 00:57:18,010
I don't think that.
1276
00:57:18,010 --> 00:57:19,690
I mean, I would love to see it.
1277
00:57:19,850 --> 00:57:21,370
I think that that would be exciting.
1278
00:57:21,850 --> 00:57:24,140
Now could I achieve that
thing, bro?
1279
00:57:24,140 --> 00:57:28,580
Right now, I lead our mythic
team in dirt naps, so I don't know
1280
00:57:29,060 --> 00:57:29,460
that.
1281
00:57:30,580 --> 00:57:31,420
And it's okay.
1282
00:57:31,420 --> 00:57:33,100
I mean, like, I think that is.
1283
00:57:33,100 --> 00:57:36,180
I think where we're at with
the game is okay.
1284
00:57:36,180 --> 00:57:39,700
And I think the folks out
there need to know that wherever
1285
00:57:40,580 --> 00:57:47,460
you land on this list, level
one through seven, that is okay.
1286
00:57:47,780 --> 00:57:48,340
That's right.
1287
00:57:48,660 --> 00:57:52,820
Play the damn game and play it
your way and enjoy it.
1288
00:57:52,820 --> 00:57:57,050
And if anybody has a problem
with it, find another group of friends.
1289
00:57:57,530 --> 00:57:58,130
That's right.
1290
00:57:58,130 --> 00:57:59,050
Come game with us.
1291
00:57:59,210 --> 00:58:00,410
Yeah, come get with us.
1292
00:58:00,410 --> 00:58:04,290
Like, just enjoy the way that
you're playing the game.
1293
00:58:04,290 --> 00:58:07,930
And, like, I'll freely admit
I've never done a mythic raid.
1294
00:58:08,650 --> 00:58:10,010
I only.
1295
00:58:10,090 --> 00:58:13,130
I've only dabbled in heroic raid.
1296
00:58:13,690 --> 00:58:14,090
Right?
1297
00:58:14,410 --> 00:58:16,130
Geez, man, that's something else.
1298
00:58:16,130 --> 00:58:18,890
I can crush the hell out of
some heroic dungeons.
1299
00:58:20,090 --> 00:58:21,690
They're super easy.
1300
00:58:21,850 --> 00:58:22,250
Yeah.
1301
00:58:22,250 --> 00:58:25,320
We finish the dungeons and
we're like, yeah, suck it.
1302
00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:26,520
You had that coming.
1303
00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:28,120
Suck it, Trebek.
1304
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:30,840
Yeah, totally.
1305
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:32,600
But, like, I mean, that's.
1306
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,160
Look, we have a World of
Warcraft podcast, And, like, that's
1307
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:39,640
100% honesty that I've never
stepped foot in a mythic raid.
1308
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:44,760
I'm terrified to step foot in
a mythic raid because I haven't cleared
1309
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:46,280
all those same things on heroic.
1310
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:48,280
I've just dabbled in heroic raids.
1311
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:51,640
So over time, and as we get.
1312
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,520
I mean, I think you and I are
Both with, you know, with this podcast
1313
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:59,240
and with our, with our
investment in, in Warcraft, this
1314
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,840
latest round, like we're 100
all in, having a blast.
1315
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,320
So I have no doubt that we're
going to push those things here in,
1316
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:06,840
in the future, probably in the
near future.
1317
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,920
But, you know, as for right
now, like, I've played this game
1318
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,000
since launch.
1319
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:18,980
I was playing EverQuest 2 and
really enjoying EverQuest 2 and this
1320
00:59:19,140 --> 00:59:23,500
thing called World of Warcraft
came out and was getting rave reviews
1321
00:59:23,500 --> 00:59:24,820
and I was like, man, I'll give
it a try.
1322
00:59:25,220 --> 00:59:29,220
Canceled my Everquest 2
subscription that week.
1323
00:59:29,300 --> 00:59:30,100
It was done.
1324
00:59:30,340 --> 00:59:32,579
I was like, nope, I'm playing
this Warcraft thing.
1325
00:59:33,140 --> 00:59:36,620
So ever since then it's been
back and forth, back and forth, back
1326
00:59:36,620 --> 00:59:40,860
and forth to World of Warcraft
and a bunch of other MMOs until now.
1327
00:59:40,860 --> 00:59:45,530
We finally realize that this
game has, for the most part always
1328
00:59:45,690 --> 00:59:47,970
had every feature we're
looking for in an mmo.
1329
00:59:47,970 --> 00:59:49,930
And that's why we landed back here.
1330
00:59:49,930 --> 00:59:52,930
So, like, our seriousness for
Warcraft is through the roof right
1331
00:59:52,930 --> 00:59:53,210
now.
1332
00:59:53,530 --> 00:59:54,010
Yeah.
1333
00:59:54,330 --> 00:59:54,690
Yeah.
1334
00:59:54,690 --> 00:59:58,130
You know, probably my favorite
thing right now and probably has
1335
00:59:58,130 --> 01:00:00,810
been for years, and I probably
just didn't realize it.
1336
01:00:00,810 --> 01:00:04,410
Part of my all time favorite
thing in this game is collecting.
1337
01:00:05,050 --> 01:00:10,320
Whether it's transmogs or
mounts or toys.
1338
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,200
Or dirt from right next to
your face when you're on the ground
1339
01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:14,440
or.
1340
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:18,000
The soil from the mythic floors.
1341
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,120
Look at, I have soil from
Elwyn Forest.
1342
01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:22,960
I'm gonna put it in this jar
and keep it.
1343
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:24,400
I'll out myself.
1344
01:00:24,639 --> 01:00:30,560
I absolutely came to last
Sunday's mythic rounds.
1345
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,680
Forgot to swap out of my PvP spec.
1346
01:00:34,650 --> 01:00:39,610
Didn't have a cleanse on and
they, they get, they ribbed me good.
1347
01:00:39,610 --> 01:00:41,290
And I earned it, every bit of it.
1348
01:00:41,370 --> 01:00:43,970
And of course then I was
taking dirt naps and I pulled like
1349
01:00:43,970 --> 01:00:46,650
the whole first half of
Operation Floodgate.
1350
01:00:46,730 --> 01:00:47,570
You might as well.
1351
01:00:47,570 --> 01:00:51,370
If you had like a this is a
crap show moment that would.
1352
01:00:51,370 --> 01:00:52,330
That was that for me.
1353
01:00:52,330 --> 01:00:53,850
It was that that day.
1354
01:00:53,850 --> 01:00:57,450
But here's the beauty of the
group that we've chosen to play with.
1355
01:00:57,610 --> 01:00:59,130
Here's the beauty of it, right?
1356
01:01:00,100 --> 01:01:00,340
Higher.
1357
01:01:00,740 --> 01:01:02,180
The folks we were running with.
1358
01:01:02,820 --> 01:01:04,220
And I'm gonna shout them out.
1359
01:01:04,220 --> 01:01:06,980
Caribou and Lunchbox and
Stark, of course, you know.
1360
01:01:07,700 --> 01:01:08,180
Yeah.
1361
01:01:08,260 --> 01:01:09,140
And Stark.
1362
01:01:10,340 --> 01:01:11,300
Higher level players.
1363
01:01:11,380 --> 01:01:12,820
100 higher level players.
1364
01:01:13,460 --> 01:01:13,860
Yeah.
1365
01:01:13,860 --> 01:01:16,700
Not a single time did anybody
say anything right?
1366
01:01:16,700 --> 01:01:18,260
No other, other than some.
1367
01:01:18,420 --> 01:01:20,740
Other than some fun ribbing.
1368
01:01:20,980 --> 01:01:21,340
Yeah.
1369
01:01:21,340 --> 01:01:22,180
Locker room ribbing.
1370
01:01:22,180 --> 01:01:22,460
That's.
1371
01:01:22,460 --> 01:01:23,060
That's it.
1372
01:01:23,140 --> 01:01:29,880
Jibs outed himself on both the
no cleanse, which if there's anybody
1373
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:32,720
that's gonna notice we don't
have a cleanse, it's pretty much
1374
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:33,360
me first.
1375
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,600
I'm gonna notice it real quick.
1376
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:36,960
I didn't have it.
1377
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:37,720
Oh, cleanse.
1378
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:38,760
It was so embarrassing.
1379
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:39,520
Cleanse.
1380
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,720
Please, for the love of God,
cleanse yourself.
1381
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:45,920
And the other thing was, he was.
1382
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:46,840
He just said it.
1383
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:47,520
He was just like.
1384
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,120
I really didn't want to admit
in front of you guys, but I had my
1385
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:51,520
PVP's back on the whole.
1386
01:01:53,340 --> 01:01:54,700
It was just laughter, right?
1387
01:01:54,700 --> 01:01:55,060
Just.
1388
01:01:55,060 --> 01:01:56,660
Just fun laughter.
1389
01:01:56,660 --> 01:02:00,380
And that's the beauty of
finding out what level you're at
1390
01:02:00,540 --> 01:02:00,900
in.
1391
01:02:00,900 --> 01:02:01,580
In this.
1392
01:02:02,140 --> 01:02:07,660
In this list, and then
adjoining yourself, surrounding yourself
1393
01:02:07,980 --> 01:02:11,020
with players that are of the
same mindset.
1394
01:02:11,180 --> 01:02:14,020
And, you know, there could be
a fluctuation of, you know, two or
1395
01:02:14,020 --> 01:02:16,860
three up or two or three down,
and nobody cares.
1396
01:02:17,100 --> 01:02:17,940
And I think that's.
1397
01:02:17,940 --> 01:02:21,540
That's a beautiful thing about
finding in the right community for
1398
01:02:21,540 --> 01:02:21,820
you.
1399
01:02:21,820 --> 01:02:25,860
But that's why I love this
list so much, because it.
1400
01:02:26,100 --> 01:02:28,820
It doesn't cement you where
you are, but you're kind of like,
1401
01:02:28,820 --> 01:02:30,220
yeah, yeah, yeah, that's.
1402
01:02:30,220 --> 01:02:30,660
That's.
1403
01:02:30,660 --> 01:02:32,140
I'm a level four, for sure.
1404
01:02:32,140 --> 01:02:32,780
Yeah, yeah.
1405
01:02:32,780 --> 01:02:35,579
You know, as much as you don't
want to admit it, I would feel worse
1406
01:02:35,579 --> 01:02:41,940
admitting that I was a level
7, which I know me, if I was.
1407
01:02:41,940 --> 01:02:47,180
If I was a level 7, if I was a
0.1% just complete beast in this
1408
01:02:47,180 --> 01:02:52,540
game, something else in my
life is suffering, Something else
1409
01:02:52,780 --> 01:02:59,740
somewhere is dying miserable
death, and it hasn't been touched,
1410
01:03:00,140 --> 01:03:05,340
watered, hugged, loved,
nurtured in several months.
1411
01:03:06,940 --> 01:03:07,580
I just.
1412
01:03:07,820 --> 01:03:10,700
I. I'm not at the point in my
life where I can do that.
1413
01:03:10,940 --> 01:03:12,710
You know, I probably won't
never be.
1414
01:03:13,270 --> 01:03:17,350
But anyway, I thought it was
fun to go through this.
1415
01:03:17,430 --> 01:03:20,270
Luckily, Snark picked the
right thing for us this week because
1416
01:03:20,270 --> 01:03:22,310
this was a really fun one, folks.
1417
01:03:22,310 --> 01:03:28,550
If you have not checked out
the video, Teddles is actually really
1418
01:03:28,630 --> 01:03:29,190
funny.
1419
01:03:29,430 --> 01:03:32,070
And the video is very, very
well done.
1420
01:03:32,070 --> 01:03:34,630
So look up this video on YouTube.
1421
01:03:34,790 --> 01:03:39,280
The seven levels of world of
Warcraft players buy Teddles.
1422
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:39,840
Thank you.
1423
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:40,320
That's right.
1424
01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:41,160
That's right.
1425
01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:41,400
Yes.
1426
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:42,080

commercial break and wrap up the
1429
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:49,840
show.
1430
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:50,560
Be right back.
1431
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:54,880
I'm okay.
1432
01:03:55,600 --> 01:04:00,160
Has your dungeon been ruined
by a faulty Norman Lodger 5000?
1433
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:03,800
Why am I seven feet tall?
1434
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:08,820
And on four, you may be
entitled to an early retirement size
1435
01:04:08,820 --> 01:04:11,580
compensation here at Gear Sprocket.

Friggin gnomes.
1442
01:04:28,700 --> 01:04:31,470
They said I'd stand for tall
in my next raid.
1443
01:04:31,790 --> 01:04:32,990
But not like this.
1444
01:04:36,510 --> 01:04:38,590
So don't suffer another wipe alone.
1445
01:04:38,910 --> 01:04:46,390

Results may vary.
1453

Batteries not included.
1454
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:07,760
My arm is shrinking again.
1455
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:13,200
That's Gear Sprocket, Guzzle

01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:20,880
This message brought to you by
Azeroth Morning Radio.
1458
01:05:20,960 --> 01:05:24,080
Your daily dose of dungeon
drama and lackluster entertainment.
1459
01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:25,840
Hey everyone.
1460
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:30,700
Cash and Jibs here wanted you
to be part of Azeroth Morning Radio.
1461
01:05:30,700 --> 01:05:32,980
We're putting together
something special to showcase our
1462
01:05:32,980 --> 01:05:35,980
amazing community right here
on the show itself.
1463
01:05:36,140 --> 01:05:40,020
All you need to do is record a
short voice clip of yourself saying
1464
01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:42,060
this line and make it your own.
1465
01:05:42,380 --> 01:05:47,220
Hi, I'm your character name
and when I'm not in something funny,
1466
01:05:47,220 --> 01:05:51,580
personal or totally chaotic,
I'm listening to Azeroth Morning
1467
01:05:51,580 --> 01:05:52,140
Radio.
1468
01:05:52,220 --> 01:05:53,420
Here's a few examples.
1469
01:05:53,970 --> 01:05:58,330
Hi, I'm Leaf Spinner and when
I'm not falling off zeppelins, I'm
1470
01:05:58,330 --> 01:06:00,290
listening to Azeroth Morning Radio.
1471
01:06:00,690 --> 01:06:02,450
Hi, I'm Leaf Spinner.
1472
01:06:02,450 --> 01:06:06,450
When I'm not raiding at 3am,
I'm listening to Azeroth Morning
1473
01:06:06,450 --> 01:06:07,010
Radio.
1474
01:06:07,090 --> 01:06:10,370
Keep it short, have fun with
it, and don't worry about perfection.
1475
01:06:10,530 --> 01:06:14,050
We want your real personality
and in game charm to shine through.
1476
01:06:14,610 --> 01:06:15,250
Quick tip.
1477
01:06:15,250 --> 01:06:16,490
You don't need fancy gear.
1478
01:06:16,490 --> 01:06:19,650
Just use the voice recorder
app on your phone, hit record and
1479
01:06:19,650 --> 01:06:20,570
send us the file.
1480
01:06:20,650 --> 01:06:21,450
Pretty easy.
1481
01:06:21,610 --> 01:06:27,050
Once you've got your clip,
email it to us@azerothmorningradiomail.com
1482
01:06:27,290 --> 01:06:29,690
we'll pick our favorites to
feature in future episodes.
1483
01:06:30,090 --> 01:06:32,490
So you might just hear your
own voice on the show.
1484
01:06:32,730 --> 01:06:37,090
Because let's be real,
Azeroth's always better when we can
1485
01:06:37,090 --> 01:06:38,090
share it together.
1486
01:06:44,730 --> 01:06:48,430
Well everybody, thank you much
so so much for hanging out with us

thank you so much for hanging out

part where we ask for your help.
1495
01:07:09,590 --> 01:07:10,270

01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,520
greatly helps the show but
also the thing that we really care
1503
01:07:29,520 --> 01:07:32,800

folks, if you see something amazing
1527
01:08:45,190 --> 01:08:48,070
in Azeroth, maybe if there's
some kind of initiative going on
1528
01:08:48,070 --> 01:08:51,830
to help a community member or
you know, something wholesome, maybe
1529
01:08:51,830 --> 01:08:56,080
it's, you know, you and your
wife played the game together for
1530
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:56,720
the first time.
1531

You and she's your ex wife
other no.

01:08:59,960 --> 01:09:01,560
And you mistakenly took her
into a.
1533
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:03,080
Mythic we're not doing divorces.
