Episode 17 – The Real Anniversary Episode Show Notes Welcome to Episode 17! First year of Solo Queue in the books and stumbling into some creative WoW-adjacent media got me thinking about all the value added to WoW by content creators outside of Blizzard. Four Tanks and a Healer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A47d3fjDNSQ Stormwind University: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sgpgEy-UW8 Karazhan Library: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkDNwkGDS84 “What have you done lately?” – 16:52 Trivia is now 42 characters every day – the end is in sight, January 7 For max leveling efficiency, that meant getting 5 characters to 80 I made my 2 Earthen characters Monthly inventory for first time in 3 months Sporadically getting weekly meta quests done to keep gearing the 5 level 80s Addon Recommendation: Altoholic – 25:39 Tracks gold, levels, achievements, time played, and many more bits of individual character info account-wide, server by server, faction by faction. …and Siren Isle – 27:03 Yes, it feels a lot like 10.0.7, but it is kind of different Gameplay is…fine; better than the alternative of nothing until 11.1 Story is hard to take in, maybe just for me? News – 46:34 Still 2 story questlines to come in 11.0.7, Dalaran epilogue and Lingering Shadows Turbulent Timeways coming January 7 – 5 weeks of timewalking New game modes coming to the Character select screen? Might it be… Plunderstorm returns January 14 with less demanding reward system, new rewards, same battlefield And two holidays are wrapping up next week, Anniversary event January 7 and Winter Veil January 5! Winter Veil in your Garrison! – 56:36 The second-best place to celebrate Winter Veil is in your WoD Garrison, which naturally gets decorations and there are WV dailies to add more decorations. If you haven't done it, why not now? I did, during the recording. And, I've been thinking about WoD lately, which had its 10th anniversary in November. 2025 is my 10th anniversary in WoW. Throughout the coming year, I am going to go through some of the highlights of this much-maligned expansion to show what is still enjoyable, including featuring the 3 WoD raids in Raid of the Month throughout the year. Raid of the Month: Antorus (Legion) – 1:12:02 Speaking of RotM, we visit the final raid of Legion, Antorus, the Burning Throne and see where that giant sword came from. Is it worth it? Lots of running around, Eonar a slow encounter, but if you want the 2 mounts and various transmog, then yes, get in there, at least a few times. Did I get any mounts? Listen to find out – no spoilers! Also a plug for the website simplearmory.com – check it out to see all of your collectable items, along with a planner to go hunt them all down! Drink of the Month – 1:30:20 All that raiding has me thirsty for Dwarven Mead and Greatfather's Winter Ale at the Stonefire Tavern in Ironforge, in sight of Greatfather Winter himself! Main Topic: Yep, more Winter Veil, including *SPOILERS* presents opened! – 1:31:50 We head across the molten channel in Ironforge to check out Winter Veil activities, including a ride out to kill the Greench, unwrapping the 2024 presents live, and sharing my Winter Veil wish list, now for 2025. Plans for 2025 and gratitude for the influences that led me to SQ – 1:41:18 SQ plans for the coming year, a Season 2, if you will. Biggest is the goal of two episodes each month, a traditional (and shorter) episode, and a second episode of various formats, including interviews, single topic deep dives, or overflow topics for the month. I want to close this episode with gratitude for my sources of inspiration for Solo Queue including traditional radio, some Blizzard podcasts no longer with us, and many that are. Thank you, fellow podcasters! Honored to be among your ranks. Solo Queue Mailbox – 2:04:16 The second and third reviews on Apple Podcasts from Mr Rascolwitz and Cyn (psmst1). #grateful Truly, thanks for a great first year of Solo Queue! I hope you keep listening and sharing it with friends. Outro – 2:08:47 Thanks to Blizzard and OGRE for audio, my lovely wife, and you for listening.

Merry Christmas from all three of us at Citizens of Azeroth. It's Christmas week and we're spending the time with our family, friends, and loved ones, but wanted to make sure we had something out this week, so we're releasing an episode of Rafe's movie podcast Have Not Seen This that actually serves as a sort of origin for this podcast. In this episode, Alora made her podcasting debut to discuss the 1988 movie Willow. She has some great insights into the movie, including a great "leveling up" theory, and of course, as WoW players, we do bring the movie back to the game several times. If you like what you hear, subscribe to that podcast as well.We'll see you next week for a return to Azeroth and we all hope you have the happiest of holidays!Find Rafe on Twitter and check out his other podcast Have Not Seen This.Find Chris on Twitter.Find Alora on Twitter.Follow the show on social media on Twitter and Facebook!Subscribe to get all our future episodes. The show is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Play, Stitcher, or through the RSS feed.

Episode Notes Twas the Night before Winter Veil, when to my utter surprise there stood Greatfather Winter, a sad look in his eyes...I wrote this short 'Chrismas' poem based on one of my favorite Warcraft quests.Youtube VersionWelcome to the MachineThe SamophlangeThe Ballad of Maximillian---- Personal Notes ----Sign up for my mailing list to get weekly updates and never miss a story again!---- About Tall Tale TV ----My name is Chris Herron, and I narrate audiobooks.In 2015, poor control of my diabetes left me legally blind for the better part of a year. The doctors predicted an 80% chance I would never see again, but I changed the way I was living and through sheer willpower beat the odds.During this time I couldn't read or write. Two things that I had been turning to for comfort since I was a small child. With the sheer amount of stress I was under, this was devastating. My wife took me by the arm, lead me into the local library, and read out titles of audiobooks to me. I chose the audiobook versions of books I had loved such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter and more. They brought my favorite stories to life in ways I never thought possible, and helped me through the darkest time of my life.Once my vision recovered, I maintained a love for audiobooks. I decided I would turn my focus from being a writer to becoming a narrator. I devised Tall Tale TV as a way to help out all the amazing authors in the writing communities I had come to love before my ordeal.I created Tall Tale TV to help aspiring authors by providing them with a promotional audiobook video. A way to showcase their skills with the written word. They say the strongest form of advertisement is word of mouth, so I provide a video to a platform of readers to help get people talking.

Ok, we'll be digging into Destiny 2, FFXIV, and other games shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE News Imperium Ludi Destiny 2 First DLC: Curse of Osiris is live. New "Raid Lairs" are now active. New level cap is 25. More updates due on 12 Dec (so Euro!) WoW AIE Winter Veil COOP Spectacular 2017 http://forum.myextralife.com/topic/57480-aie-winter-veil-coop-spectacular-2017/ IT'S TIME TO COOP!!!!! We are having a bit of fun this Winter Veil and delivering gifts to our "friends" on the Alliance side! So bring your Winter Veil outfits, Transmogs, those cute Greatfather hats, and your S.E.L.F.I.E.'s and join us!!!!!! When: Saturday, December 30, 2017 Time: 4:00 pm Server Time Where: Death Blimp Grimcow will be heading up this COOP run. If you have any questions, please let him or I know. Can't wait to ring in the New Year with AIE!!!!! SWTOR MFN - for the 12th of December Explosive Conflict on the Galactic Republic side. For the 19th of December Terror from Beyond on the Sith Empire Side. December 26th and January 2nd we'll be on break, we will be back on the 9th of January for a visit at Karraga's Palace on the Sith Empire side. Patch 5.6.1 hits on Tuesday and one of the highlights is some tuning to the new Copero flashpoint. Here are the current patch notes for these changes in 5.6.1 (still subject to change, check on Monday for the final). Bosses have had their health significantly reduced in both Story and Solo Mode. The damage done by bosses has been reduced in both Story and Solo Mode. Bosses have had their health slightly reduced in both Veteran and Master Mode. The number of enemies has been reduced throughout the Flashpoint. The Guardian Droid will no longer instant cast their Mortar Volley ability. The Copero Security Droid will no longer instant cast their Seeker Missile ability. Also, of note for Tetsemi, who loves his dailies 5.6.1 - The lack of that Daily Mission means you actually get less CXP than you did previously from the Daily areas, which is not something we want. In fact, we want you to get a lot more CXP from solo Missions in the game. In Game Update 5.6.1 all of the Planetary Heroic Missions and Daily Area Missions are going to have their CXP rewards tripled to 225 CXP per Mission (up from 75). Our goal with this change is that both Planetary Heroics and Daily Area Missions are great sources of CXP for solo players. These changes in 5.6.1 along with all of the other increased rewards for both group and solo in Activity Finder means you can gain Command Ranks quicker than ever in whatever activities you choose to play. Check for the final patch notes on Monday here - http://www.swtor.com/patchnotes/ Also, starting Tuesday until the end of the year, they are having a Double XP, CXP, and Valor event. This was supposed to happen with the launch of 5.6, but some bits got misplaced and are now in order. SWTOR Escape Pod Cast 222: Nar Shaddaa and Nahut Talk http://www.newoverlords.com/swtor-escape-pod-cast-222-nar-shaddaa-and-nahut/ This week @AIESema, @MaxTheGrey and Astromech EPC-222 wrap up our class story on Nar Shadaa, talk about the new Nahut boss fight FFXIV

Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/Hfg8e1pWr2A AIE NEWS OPEN Mkallah - Welcome to episode # 220 of the the podcast celebrating the Alea Iacta Est gaming community. This is Mkallah. Rght over there, we have Tetsemi (Welcome to World of Garrison Craft where your followers play the game better than you do!). And the awesome Alludra is off digging in the dirt for more pets! First off, we want to apologize for the sporadic podcasts the last few weeks- this time of the year makes it hard to record- or even, evidently, post the normal show. Thanks you, Alachaas and Hunts, for stepping in last week. That is all in the past, though- This week we are joined by special guests Rattozatto who is here to talk to us about AIE in The Secret World. Welcome! Ok, we'll be digging into The Secret World shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE NEWS Tetsemi - General: Did you get an Xbox or PS4 for the holidays? If so, there are threads in the AIE community sections of the forums listing IDs. Also, there are lots of smaller games either ongoing or starting up all of the time, see the Imperium Ludi section of the forum for more details. You acn also follow @AIENomads on twitter or check out the forums at http://forum.myextralife.com/forum/74-aie-nomads/ for all the information. I'm sure with all the games received over the holidays they will be picking up their roaming ways after the new year. Shimmeredge has started a great thread on the forums- just asking- Are you Okay? A lot of us have problems- especially this time of the year, and it is nice to have a place to just vent, talk, give and get virtual hugs, etc. And just for fun- Snaf wants to know what you got for Christmas! Reading the thread, it looks like a lot of AIE was indulged in some great geeky holiday gifts. So guys, what did you enjoy the most this season? Mkallah: - WoW: In pet news, Blizzard is celebrating Winter Veil by offering holiday savings of 50% on select World of Warcraft mounts and pets. Through January 5, 2015, take advantage of somg great deals in the Battle.net Shop. And the best thing is that all of these pets and mounts are fully giftable. Did someone go out of their way to help you in game? Made your day by queueing with you one more time in an LFR? Don't forget the Thank a Guildmate thread. Also, the AIE officers in ALL games are always looking for new Guildies of the month- they can be reached at GOTM@gmail.com. We try to announce our all star at the first of every month. And this is not limited to WOW- we want to hear about great guildies in all of the games AIE play. Always wanted to try raiding, but were afraid to start- or has your old team disbanded? Many new raid teams are forming, as well as existing ones looking for new players. Tetsemi - LOTR-: For the Hobbitsis annd other citizens of MIddle Earth- Dux has been kind enough to deposit a bunch of rep items for the 'Men of Bree' and the 'Mathom Society' into the house chest. SWTOR: AIE in SWTOR had a 3rd year anniversary celebration with a World Boss Hunt and holiday music, rumor has it there were presents as well.

What We've been Doing Aprillian Doing a couple of dailies a day on Aprillian. Mostly trying to get my DK's up so they can play with her. Friday Morning, grinding in Nagrand with theprimall. Didn't realize it was possible for a zombie to loot. Theprimall dinged 63 at 7:11am on Friday and I've been playing her straight through on the train to Washington. She's grinding in the Spirit field, there are mobs galore. Got to 63.5 by BWI Airport at 12:30p In the Train station grinding the Vir'Ani and killed an Arcanist, a Four of Lunacy dropped In Chicago playing in the First Class Lounge, Theprimall dinged 64. She went to the Consortium's camp and turned in over a 100 [Oshu'gun Crystal Fragment]. Then I logged off and went to the website so I can change her name and appearance and I'm thinking of doing a Figure print with her. Then I pulled out Epril to do get her to 64. I'm doing it mostly because at 64 they can get the quests in Nagrand, especially the nessingwary, I love those Renamed ThePrimall to Elyte. I was surprised that was available. I had them grinding in Oshu'Gun because once they hit 64, they can turn in the following quest: Stealing from theives A Head full of ivory Epril dinged 64, then went to Garadand and picked up a mess of quests. Then I decided I want to level a Priest with RAF. I made a Troll Priest and teamed her with my level 6 Orc Shaman who hadn't done the starting are quest there because I took her to Eversong Woods to farm eggs with a BE Hunter. I do not want a way to start at a certain level on any race/class like the DK. This is a horrible idea and would make it impossible for new people to ever get into WoW. Took the twins Epril and Elyte to Ebon Hold for Training. DK training is expensive. Good thing they made money grinding. I don't know what the time limit is but I am sure glad that when you dc, you don't get put back in queue if you log back in right away Lost internet for a while. But when it came back the queue was way too long, went to Lethon server. Got back on later Sunday night, short queue, everybody must be going back to work/school tomorrow. Was actually on a 3G network for a while and able to Dual Box Epril and Elyte. Doing the Nessingwary quest, too bad I don't have a skinner. Got this [Crystalblade of the Draenei] in Nagrand. Crystalblade of the Draenei Binds when equipped One-Hand Sword 70 - 131 Damage Speed 1.60 (62.8 damage per second) 195 Armor +18 Stamina Durability 90 / 90 Requires Level 66Equip: Increases defense rating by 13 (6.76 @ L66). Elyte turned in the osh powder and got her first Halla token. I am thinking of trying the whole pvp aspect in Nagrand this week Ashayo Gobu invited to raid for Vault of Archavon - an instance you can run when you own Wintersgrasp Very quick instance - about 10 minutes, and the boss drops tier 7 loot. Unfortunately you can only run once a week. Tried to run the 25 man variant with 10 players ; cleared the trash fine, but not enough DPS for the boss. Then headed to The Obsidium Sanctum underneath Wyrmrest. Jekle and Hiide started questing in Howling Fjord. Probably only done a dozen or so thus far, but quite enjoyable! Hiide even ran an instance! Dills tanked on his DK and Cairubel healed on her druid. Jekle has healed Utgarde Keep - with Aprillian! Asheal is now fully Holy Tried healing oculus - failed on last boss (while mounted) Heal Heroic Utgarge Keep Try to heal Culling of Strat ; wipeage NYE Alliance Boss raid - Ashayo now has a [Black War Bear] Starting Knights of the Ebon Blade quest lines in Icecrown Death Knight is levelling waaay fast - currently 65 just by running some instances. Levelling Engineering to 300. Jumper Cables. Quest for mote extractor schematic Achievement Day! Heroic Halls of Lightning Timely Death - kill in under 2 mins Halls of Lightning Northrend Dungeonmaster Timear Foresees - 4 x daily dungeon quests AQ40 achievement Exalted with Wyrmrest Accord - Sandals of the Crimson Fury, Reins of the Red Drake Cracked Egg - White Tickbird Hatchling, Cobra Hatchling Chef disappointment - Got Captain Rumsey's Lager from daily fishing - Did the Dinner Impossible by presenting Great Feast in each Battleground - Did "The Northrend Gourmet" to cook 30 Northrend recipes... and didn't get Chef. - Chef says "The Northrend Gour..." - but it refers to the 45 version, and there arn't even that many in the game at 3.0.3 :( Blade's Edge Ugh... hey guys... Blade here... With the Winter Veil festivities all week long in real life, ol' Blade hasn't spent a lot of time in Azeroth... so nothing's really changed... I DO have a Dwarf Guardian character in Lord of the Rings Online, though... a result of someone's valiant effort to show ol' Blade that there are other games out there... other than WoW... ... but Ol' Blade wasn't fooled for a second... What with presents-giving, nog-drinking and visiting of little-sprog relatives... Ol' Blade hasn't had a lot of extra time to throw together a long narrative-style email like I usually do... So here's the nitty-gritty... From the 'Dirty Little Tricks' Department: Following the macro thread I started before... something for Warriors... specifically the Protection-specc'd tanks out there... with the Night of the Living Deathknights (aka Wrath of the Lich King) having spawned all kinds of new and OP tanks, plus Paladins have been spoon-fed their tanking greatness for a while now (wait for it... there's more coming for them in the 3.0.8 patch... a ranged taunt!) Ridiculous, I say. Warriors seem to be being left in the proverbial dust. We / they did get a little bit of a pat on the back with the Protection talent tree revamp in 3.0... quite a few warriors are now leveling as Protection-spec tanks now... but how to make it just THAT much more /awesome? Ol' Blade's got your back, he does... So here's some love for the First-Among-Tanks... the Original and (in Blade's not-so-humble opinion) Best... The Warriors. It's a simple macro... more for saving space on your hot-key bar... and it's great now that Charge can be used in combat... no more stance dancing! /Charge /Taunt Yep. That's it. Again... they're on different timers, so you end up Charging in guns a-blazing, and drop a taunt pretty much the moment you hit the mob. Nifty! Spam it again in six seconds... you can't charge (cause you're too close) but Taunt works just fine! Let's add to it... just to spice things up... Toss in a /cast Thunder Clap as a third line... it won't cast it the first time (when you initiate combat), but any successive times you cast your Charge/Taunt macro, it will Thunder Clap all the nearby mobs... this one's a bit tricky... as TC is on a separate timer, it will Thunder Clap WHEN you hit the macro... if you're too low on Rage to have TC go off, it's fine... all other times, you'll look like you just got blasted away from your Thunder Clap... good for dropping a large chunk of threat on the mobs surrounding you as you speed off to intercept the aggro off the healer... Voila. You're now a Paladin (get it? aoe attack spam?)... without all that mamby-pamby healing 'Oh noes! I'm getting attacked! /bubble /hearth' nonsense. And from Ol' Blade's Easter Egg basket: Ol' Blade and Mrs. Blade have been watching some older movies of late... and one sorta stuck in my head... because it reminded me of the Arcane Protectors in the starting lowbie-Blood Elf zone... it seems both they and Robocop have the same Prime Directives... "Serve the Public Trust"... "Protect the Innocent"... and "Uphold the Law"... Also... the Alliance zone of Elwood Forest is home to many things... Hogger, the level 11elite Gnoll that is the bane of all Alliance players over level 10... as you will inevitably get at least one /tell asking you to 'Hlp kill Hoger plz' as you pass through the zone... ... but did you know there's a Lumberjack in Elwood Forest? One that 'is ok' and 'works all day'...? As a Horde, I don't think I can get him to talk without sticking a shiv between his ribs... but I'm sure you Alliance types could get a few words out of him... he's at the Eastvale Logging Camp. He's named Terry Palin... after Terry Jones and Michael Palin, the Monty Python members and writers of the 'Lumberjack Song'... That's all for this week... next week, I'll share some of my (mis) adventures in Ironforge! As always, an awesome podcast guys... Blade Email Email #1 from Mimdalf Just a note from a fellow guildee, Mimdalf to say Hello, and your doing a great job. Such good chemistry on your show. -- In Fraternitas Email #2 from Mo Hello all at Ctrl alt wow, and listerns, and i guess the Alliance, :) I dinged 80 finally, on my main main, that is the first character i ever made, oh some 3+years ago; Motauren on Balanzzar, yes he is a tauren warrior if you did not guess from the name :) I think you have covered dailies for northrend but would you please suggest any good pointers, possible addons as im an addonholic as well ;/, I have just started doing dailies for some factions and even started the cooking. I was sad that i can only do one perday, what is the deal with that? well thank you as always and another quick point, following up an email from last week, about leveling your weapon skills; depending on what level you are, i usually try to level weapons as i level, but if you are 80 and trying to get the achievements, i find low instances the best places to skill them up. Especially if you need the instance achievements anyways. As a warrior, i am also a weaponholic, i like using all weapons, well I would like to but only my axe is a real weapon for big boy land. Hope you all have/had a great new year and enjoy wowing, -- Mo Email #3 First, wanted to let you know that the Collector's Edition arrived right on time and I gave Frosty to my husband for Christmas, so now he won't feel so left out when my daughter and I have our Frosty pets out :-) Our two guilds of real life friends and family try to run instances, but since we're all pretty casual players and most of us are altoholics, it can be a little challenging. Getting 5 people together with the same 3 hour block of time to play is one thing (and I could write a whole other email about that), figuring out what instance to do and who to bring can take on a life of its own as well. We wind up with a some memorable instance runs, like when we went through Deadmines with 4 draenai shaman and one crazy, gnome warlock. There were so many totems that you couldn't see the gnome at all, though you knew she was there, because all the mobs were attacking her. Thank goodness shaman can resurrect. Or the all female, Night Elf Druid runs, punctuated with yells of 'Going Bear!' as the designated healer pulls aggro and then everyone else switches to their backup roll. We designate two teams of druids: the tank team (one would bear, one cat) and the healing team (one casting, one cat) and switch as needed either because of a terrible pull or when running out of mana. Not to leave the horde out of it, our horde guild is named Hunters'R'Us, so you can guess what kind of groups we put together there. Five hunters and their pets rampaging through an instance makes for much chaotic fun. We also have to be very flexible in our play styles. Depending on who else is on the run, I may be tanking with my gorilla or off-tanking or pulling out my core hound for dps. We also run lower level toons through with some high level help (makes it easier when we can only get three people together). Those runs are fun for the high level toon, since you get to decimate an instance that probably killed you a few times before, and it's good practice for the low level toons: we use the time to try out different shot or spell rotations without worrying too much about wiping the party. Our only problem is the lack of healers. We're working hard to level some paladins and priests to help with healing. So, any tips for leveling healers would be great. Your podcast just keeps getting better. It's fun when Glanthur can join you (to bring a third viewpoint and a little Alliance love) and Blade's letters are awesome. I especially liked his tip about Aspect of the Beast. Keep up the great work! For the Horde and Glory to the Alliance! Karen (I have too many alts and they are all so different, I'm going to stick with my RL identity) Horde on Arathor Alliance on Uther Email #4 from Chad Hi, Long time follower of the show, first time player considering trying my hand at recruit-a-friend/dual boxing. First of all I must say that I love my alts and and sorry that I didn't beat a certain someone to 70. I've been playing for a year and love to try as many characters and classes. I have many tunes near or at lvl 30. I only have one tune that I've stayed with past 30 (Thingoll lve 64 hunter on the Sentinal server) and only did so in order to be able to play a Death Knight. I'm going to be taking part in the recruit a friend program this weekend and was wondering what do you think should be the classes that I should consider running first. thanks, Chad Hi Aprillian, I heard that I won again. I feel a little guilty, so I have decided to send my winnings to another guildie who could use it. Please send an authenticator to: Address Removed He is a friend of mine and plays Asterien in the guild. PS - please reply with all of your show email addresses. Thanks _________________ Email # 5 from Forlornelf Subject: Hi From Forlornelf lv 80 DK on Khaz'goroth Message: Congrats to Aprillian on 70 ! Question for Blade, have you seen the little pack of critters, four deer and four mice, that wander about together up by the Refurbished Shredders in the Venture Bay PVP area?
