ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kurabara are back this week to talk about their experience playing World of Warcraft, including their time in the WoW Forever beta.
Rei talks about how people aren't joining the guild in beta. She then reviews the difference between doing keys and pushing keys. She also goes over some tensions in the guild before mentioning Brewfest and some of the decor available.
Eric talks about defeating two more bosses in Heroic Curse of Ula'tek and some experiences while leveling.
Kura has been busy traveling and talks about how the graphics in Forever belie some performance issues. He also discusses how his characters are undergeared because the weapon drops he need come from the end of the raid.
Nick talks about playing a human hunter in Forever and how daggers are weak weapons.
In the news, they talk about the Forever drama over RMT transactions and a video on Bobby Kotick's methods for intimidating the media.
Finally they take a quick look back at episode 228.
