#281: New Year, New Patch Notes!

WoW! Talk! – Warcraft News and Guild Life

Happy New Year!!! Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kurabara are back to talk about what’s been going on in World of Warcraft as we transition from 2024 to 2025. First, Rei talks about how she wasn’t able to go right to Siren’s Isle because she technically never completed the campaign questline in 11.0. She was finally able to get there and talks about some of the bugs the guild has encountered. Everyone also discusses how they feel about Cyrce’s Circlet, the new ring from the island. Rei also talked about how the warband bank is not working properly when she wants to put items into specific tabs. She also talks about finishing all the Anniversary Event content.
Eric talks about how he still hates mythic+ and is glad that he got to 2000 rating so he is done for the season. Rei mentions that she tried mythic+ with two healers. Eric also talks about killing heroic Queen Ansurek, and they talk about the last time they failed to get Ahead of the Curve which was way back in Highmaul in Warlords of Draenor. He and Rei also spent lots of time going through Dragonflight content to complete achievements for mounts and pets.
Kura talks about getting all his gear to 626 and then some add-ons he uses to track his professions. He mentions that he’s been disenchanting purples on the island to get lots of crystals. He’s also been doing PVP to get blacksmithing recipes. He complains about some quests in classic that are hard to navigate.
Nick talks about the Trading Post and how the Last Hurrah tasks make completion at the last minute so easy. They also talk about a bug that has some people having unlocked the January transmog early.
In the news, patch 11.1 notes are up and a PTR is coming in the new year. Nick in particular is interested in the changes coming to Marksman Hunter. Also, there was a holiday comic released featuring Alleria.
Finally, they look 100 episodes back at episode #181, when the Patch 9.0 content drought was becoming apparent.
