Episode 12: Hot Summer A Hot, Hot Summerf(x) = Rathalos^50What's a little summer heat compared to a fire-breathing dragon bearing down on you? Join us for a recap of our exploits in The Great Hunt (Extreme) and our time spent kicking back amidst the azure shoals of Costa del Sol during this year's Moonfire Faire. We also discuss the second iteration of the Eureka expedition, Pagos, and how it doesn't quite rekindle fond FFXI memories like some of us hoped it would.(Apologies for lower audio quality than usual this episode due to a connection issue!)If you like what you hear, please consider following us on Twitter or liking our page on Facebook!

Episode 3: It's a Dirty Job, But Wulf's Gotta Do ItWe return with our first-ever Light Party episode of Astral Era! Derek, Jeremy, and Wulf are joined by Josh (yes, just Josh-- I dunno what it is with him and Wulf only having first names) for an in-depth discussion of the Samurai playstyle. We've also got some story predictions, an aesthetic evaluation of the Genji armor set, and a Final Fantasy V history lesson as Derek dives into the origins of the Deltascape series of bosses.
