Several major issues have been discovered over the past week, and we discuss the state of the content. In The Great Discussion we also discuss Tural and Tuliyollal - Will we ever go back there in the MSQ or are we remaining in Solution Nine until the pivot patch for the next expansion? And in MogMail we discuss the names of the shards and how Calyx knows them, as well as job abilities! Welcome!
