Episode #329: May Patron Q&A! is ready for Download!

What's New this Week in World of Warcraft!

  • Spencer how are you min maxing AP? How did that work?
  • Can you talk a bit about some of the friendships you developed in WoW?
  • What are your plans for the summer?
  • Where do we see WoW in 3 expansions?
  • I know we talked about it before but if you could build the ultimate raid for the 15th anniversary what 8 bosses would you choose? They could come from any raid or dungeon from the party 15 years.
  • As the classes are in Classic, what specializations do you think are missing iconic spells that weren't added until later in the game?
  • Are there any junk items that hold sentimental value for you guys which you allow to take up precious bag and bank space, which you always scan over and never get rid of. If so, what are they…and why do you keep them?
