#318 - For Azeroth!: “Rook and Rooftops”

Sean is away as he travels to LFG London. Lex is ready to head out to Warcraft 30 Boston. Before the IRL meet-ups, Lex and Manny talk about the upcoming Turbo Boost and 111.1.7 features on the PTR.

The first information of 11.1.7's Legacy of Arathor covers a seismic shift in WoW's add-on philosophy. Lex, Manny, and Sean discuss the "one-button rotation," the rotation guide integration, and what might be in store.

Manny asks Lex and Sean about the battles we have fought in The War Within thus far. Sean continues his feud with PwnGodX but is betrayed as Lex demands that he be put out of a job.

This patch has been out for a million years or 5 weeks. Lex and Sean are already salivating for the next patch. Yet 11.1.5 has more time-gated content than in recent memory. Is the World of Warcraft coming too fast or too slow?

Lex, Sean, and Manny will only be taken to raids if they have purple parses and an item level of 850. Good luck out there, folks. Archon is here.

Sean returns, but all is not well in the aftermath of the RWF. We talk about the warts of uneven progression, problematic balance, and the hope that future releases come when they are ready.

Sean is sick but the show must go on! Lex and Manny discuss 11.1 in the aftermath of the Race to World First, more Delve and Brann tuning changes, and if the end game is heading in a healthy direction.

Salty Sean and Lippity Lex are not happy about the tuning of the raid nor the delves. Can Manny mellow them out? The answer is no; and therefore, this episode is getting the explicit tag.

Lex, Sean, and Manny are delving, raiding, and dungeon-crawling in the new content, but the RWF has already had unexpected starts and finishes. With all this going on, Blizzard has given a first glimpse at 11.1.5.

Rookuri sits down to speak on the Guild halls and player homesteads of Guild Wars 2 and what lessons and influence might be found in those systems for World of Warcraft's player housing.
