Podcasts about windstead

In this episode we take a different turn as we're joined by Tara Riddle (wide of Host Billy Riddle) and Karen Winstead, as we discuss the options when bringing a precious life into this world. Karen is a midwife at the New Life Birth Center, and we (Riddles) were recent recipients of their services for the birth of our son. Many families out there aren't aware of their options, or know there is an alternative to corporate medicine, so give this show a listen for some valuable information and good stories, for you or anyone welcoming a pregnancy. When it comes to your baby, you want to be as well informed and educated as possible.

So, those are things we’re discussing very actively as a team, with a lot more information to share on itemization and rewards in Shadowlands — but I can say it won’t be Warforging and Titanforging, and it won’t be Corruption.” “we currently don’t have any 8.3.5 plans — there may be some small systems tweaks or updates for stability between now and Shadowlands, but Visions of N’Zoth is really the concluding chapter of Battle for Azeroth, and we’re excited to focus our attention on Shadowlands and the upcoming beta for Shadowlands that’ll be opening up over the course of the year.” Race to World First hype is building with Mythic raid opening on the 28th!

A: Lots of things can be tuned - we kind of took the outlook that choosing a covenant is like choosing a class - lots of viability but choice has to matter. The active abilities is one thing but the soulbinds, etc count. This should be taken as a whole but also there will be lots of tuning knobs.

I’m pleased to say there’s actually a separate, longer transfer delay following any PvP combat. We know a lot of world PvP enthusiasts are excited for WoW Classic, and we don’t want the additional layers to feel like they’re robbing you of your kills. When the time comes to withdraw from the fight, you’ll have to escape from your enemies and get to a safe place before you’re able to join your friends on another layer.   2:12:36 - Technically Challenged  In this segment, we challenge you the listener to do something different in game.  Each episode we will give a new challenge.

A: It's not something they've completely moved away from; there's a place for loot you get randomly from a boss, and for guaranteed progression from other sources. Titanite Residuum helps, but they could probably do more for the raid and dungeons, while Conquest serves that purpose for PvP, allowing you to work toward guaranteed rewards which complement end of match and weekly chest loot. Seeing as the War Mode bonus has been at 30% for the Alliance, does this team feel like this has been a failure at balancing? A:They wouldn't be surprised to see it tick down to 25% for the Alliance. They've seen it very effective for the underrepresented faction and they feel this is a success as the faction imbalance is half of what is was. What is being done about server stability and lag?  A:It's a top priority. But it's not a single problem and it's death by a thousand cuts. They've fixed some problems but they're still investigating and its an ongoing process. Specific reports help, especially with time stamps so that the engineers can look at the logs. Can PvP please get some sort of vendor?  A:The way vendors worked out in the past, there was an order in which you bought pieces off the vendor. But they understand there is a value in the vendor of Control. The system that they're creating that is more transparent and offers those choice. One of the things they're improving is a choice of 4 Azerite Pieces in Season 2, so that every trait occurs at least once. When you cap your Conquest, you also get a Quartermaster's Coin which allows you to upgrade those pieces in the long term. Certain weeks you'll be able to choose between say 2 Bracers and 2 Pants with different stats. You can pick the best one for you and then upgrade it in the long term with a Trophy bought form a Quartermaster's Coin.  In the past, when they had vendors, they had PvP stats like PvP Power and Resilience and because that doesn't exist anymore they need to take into account the rest of the game. There's no such thing as a Raid Vendor and PvP already offers a lot of control. PvP currently offers the most selection as to what piece of gear you want.

How should they be balanced in a spec and which class is tougher to balance while preserving its unique characteristics? Why do we have to wait until the new raid for Season 2 of Mythic+? Cutting Uldir short would be a little too soon. End game rewards work in parallel. Mythic+ and PvP gear progress in similar power levels to the raid. As a Horde player on a Horde dominant server, I will never see the 30% War Mode bonus.? Every weekly reset, the system looks at the relevant balance of the two factions in War Mode in the previous week and adjusts the percentages.  Faction Assaults have brought more people to World PvP and turning on War Mode. Also of note: In PvP Season 2, once you obtain your Seasonal Mount, every time you fill the bar after that you'll earn a Vicious Saddle. 13 Dec (Greek)- https://www.wowhead.com/news=289196/greek-community-q-a-with-ion-hazzikostas 14 Dec (NA)- https://www.wowhead.com/news=289210/liveblog-of-the-dec-14th-battle-for-azeroth-q-a-with-ion-hazzikostas It was noted that Elite titles can only be used in the season they are earned : https://twitter.com/WarcraftDevs/status/1074826864235958272 The WOW team is trying to find ways to stop 110 twinks: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/disabling-xp-gains-on-110-characters/53391 At first they were considering disabling XP turnoff for 110+ characters, but then reversed decision.

Technically PVP Show Notes   Episode 66 - More Blizzcon News   Upcoming WoW PVP Events Resurgent ESB Monday Fight nights   WOW PVP NEWS There were a couple 1v1 tournaments on the Classic Demo server! :) https://challonge.com/StaysafeTV https://challonge.com/zao4cs8f Forums are getting a redo: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/breaking/22764995   Subject of Analysis Blizzcon Dev Interviews There are no plans for improvements on PvP gearing, the dev team wants to see the 8.1 changes on the PvE side in action first before coming up with anything for PvP Free for All PvP Quests are scheduled to make a return in Nazjatar. Wintergrasp is coming back as an Epic Battleground! The Island Expedition's AI was improved to more likely behave like players and be used in Battlegrounds. Just like players, the AI likes to jump a lot! PvP Warfronts are currently not planned, but it is an idea the dev team discusses consistently. PvP Zone Objectives (like the PvP towers in Terokkar Forest) are scheduled to make an appearance in Nazjatar For Tides of Vengeance, the team is working on reviewing the state of abilities added to the GCD and many movement abilities will likely be removed from it. Since revamps for Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch were announced, we were curious if Alterac Valley would receive a similar revamp. No plans at the current time. Maybe something to get around to later on. WSG and AB are more compact so you see more at once. They are also two popular battlegrounds and part of the Rated Battleground rotation. What about Ashenvale getting an update now that Warsong Gulch has one? Slippery slope! https://www.wowhead.com/news=288498/latam-content-creators-interview-with-jeremy-feasel-and-paul-watkins-flying-in-n https://www.wowhead.com/news=288433/blizzcon-2018-mamytwink-battle-for-azeroth-interview-with-jeremy-feasel-and-tina https://www.wowhead.com/news=288454/method-blizzcon-interview-with-morgan-day-and-ely-cannon-nazjatar-reaping-detail https://www.wowhead.com/news=288418/blizzcon-2018-interview-with-ion-hazzikostas-and-chris-robinson-azshara-raises-n MMO-Champion puts blogs several interviews together There is a relatively even balance of people who play Alliance or Horde. Overall win rates in random battlegrounds are "shockingly even." Epic battlegrounds tend to favor Alliance and the other battlegrounds skew a bit more in the Horde's favor. The ratio seems of win rates is about 54% Horde and 46% Alliance, not including Rated Battlegrounds. The amount of players who utilize War Mode currently skew towards Horde. In Tides of Vengeance, the team is looking into offering some kind of increased rewards for the less-represented faction in War Mode, so the risk and reward are better calibrated. Ion suspects that many Alliance players had bad experiences in War Mode in the beginning of the expansion and have turned off War Mode because of it. The purpose of increased awards is to make up for the risk of being killed by the opposite faction, but they want to keep this on equal grounds, and their hope is that increasing the rewards of the less represented faction will encourage more people to activate War Mode when their faction is at a disadvantage. Ion admits that Berserking is a bit too powerful of a racial ability for some classes and this is why it is receiving a small nerf. Historically, PvP servers have always been more Horde-favored. It might have to do with player identity in the game, such as wanting to be something battle-hardened like an orc. Blizzard is also keeping an eye on class and specialization appearance rates in PvP combat. https://www.mmo-champion.com/content/8158-Enhancement-Shaman-PTR-Changes-Forbes-Eurogamer-Interviews-Podcast-Interviews Including a Forbes interview with Ion about PVP: https://www.forbes.com/sites/hnewman/2018/11/07/blizzard-working-to-balance-warcrafts-alliance-and-horde-players-in-war-mode-raiding/#5e4361df3c18 What’s next panel https://www.wowhead.com/news=288351/blizzcon-2018-world-of-warcraft-whats-next-panel CDew streams a review of the Blizzcon games and told his secrets https://youtu.be/1TWvmhhdGAs Trivia question Previous episode question was: What is the name of the pandaren racial trait that reduces falling damage?  A: Bouncy!
