We got a third host! This week we talk about the patch 1.13.5, the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, the current state of World of Warcraft Classic and more!

Classic is about to toss open the gates of Ahn'Qiraj again, and we are pretty excited about that idea. We talk a bunch about that event changed wow forever, and why they've not tried something quite that ambitious since. Also, Duncan Jones spills the beans on why no more Warcraft movies. The Shadowlands showcase is now happening next week. Small World of Warcraft is a thing and you can get it now. Happy 20 years, Diablo II, and why the Hero Pool thing was hard for us to understand! And more!

Quissy and Pasta discuss the recent sexual assault allegations centered around the gaming community, with the collapse of Method in particular, and ways to possibly streamline reporting of hateful conduct on Twitch and Discord. They also discuss the news that Ahn'Qiraj and Phase 5 of WoW Classic is coming at the end of July 2020, and a few other tidbits of World of Warcraft news.

Guild moving to horde This Week in WoW Pet Battle Bonus Event Next week: Cataclysm Timewalking Midsummer Fire Festival starts Thursday, June 21 New from 2017: Set of Matches toy (500 Burning Blossoms), Igneous Flameling pet (350 Burning Blossoms), Illusion: Deathfrost from Ahune (Slave Pens) News BfA news 8.0 prepatch live on the PTR Players gain access to a multitude of features and system updates in the pre-patch, including Communities, War Mode, the new Honor System, overhauled Professions, and Legion's final storyline leading up to Burning of Teldrassil and the Battle for Lordaeron. Artifacts will be disabled when the pre-patch goes live. Player power will be buffed to compensate for the power loss. Class Changes A stat/item squish Legendaries won't work past level 115. Retired artifacts lose all their traits and become normal weapons, with stats scaling with relics installed in the artifact weapon. The main artifact effect of each spec's weapons is becoming a talent instead, as are several class specific legendaries. Underlight Angler was originally showing as disabled, but the latest build fixed it. WoW Classic Will start with 1.12 Drums of War: Features introduced in 1.12 included: Cross realm battlegrounds (Alterac Valley, Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin) World PvP Some of the past things from previous patches that will be included as a result: Ruins and Temple of Ahn'Qiraj - so this will be after opening those Blackwing Lair Darkmoon Faire Raid dungeon timers, calendars and lockouts The high level class dungeon armor sets Weather Quest experience for gold at level 60 Final destination flight paths Linked auction houses Some world holidays Soul shard bags (!!!) Expected issues with the first prototype didn't recognize current video cards and was incompatible with the current login/authentication server (authenticator became available 2 Jun 2008, almost 2 years after 1.12's release on 22 August 2006) Does not support modern security and anti-cheating capabilities Second prototype: instead of going forward with old code, work backward: take the modern back-end code and use it to process Patch 1.12 game data Start with modern architecture, security and stability - catalogue any differences in behavior between the development build and the Patch 1.12 reference build Three types of game data: Table data: numbers - hit points, stats, spawn timers, etc. File data: dense data such as 3d models, textures, animations, terrain, user interface, and art models (don't use the same file formats as commercial art tools - no jpgs, tifs, etc. Lua scrips: custom behaviors for server side logic without needing engineering knowledge Engineering challenges All classic data is in original form since launch, but format has changed substantially over the year. Modern client is not compatible with old data. Master data problem: from single line on a master table to multiple linked tables catalogued by ID number much richer environment but not compatible with the single line system For example, spells could only apply up to three actions on a target in classic In current form, spells no longer limited to three effects and are formatted differently Almost all other data such as items, characters, creatures, NPCs, AI, spawning and more) have had their database formats changed

Venture back to the fallen kingdom of Ahn'Qiraj and learn all about the lore of the Qiraji, Silithid and C'Thun in the deepest of dives into all things AQ! Join Josh in Part Two of the Ahn'Qiraj journey as he explains why we ventured beyond the gates that we heard all about last week on the show. After we go through the lore, we hit up the forums for the reactions of the players to the content of AQ20 and AQ40 and what we thought of it all back in the day, ranging from the fun (or boredom) of the raids and the tough encounters.
