Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas find out what's on the TSZ patrons minds with the July 2022 Patron Q&A! Episode #533: July Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! This month we asked our Patrons "What are your plans for professions in Dragonflight?" Jason and Spencer's answer to the question. What's a reasonable amount of time, outside of raid, to be expected to be 'raid ready?' If you're not raiding, how much time should you be working on your professions, how much Mythic+ or PvP'ing, etc.? Which pre-legion dungeon would you most like to see as an M+ dungeon, and which older dungeon would you like to see a new wing added to (similar to the upcoming uldaman dungeon)? How much more content do you think will be available in Dragonflight for cross-faction play? Do you think they'll implement some way of being able to do group finder activities cross faction? Or outside world stuff? Do you feel Blizz is lining up enough End Game content for Dragonflight? What you think of the S4 info we got recently? How difficult do you think the profession items that are on par with high end raid/M+ gear should be to craft? And how difficult should the reagents be to get? Is there anything you've seen in Alpha so far that has you worried about Dragonflight? Trying to reach the show?

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas find out what's on the TSZ patrons minds with the June 2022 Patron Q&A! Episode #526: June Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! This week we asked our Patrons "What are your thoughts on raid tuning, how accessible should different raid difficulties be?" Jason and Spencer's answer to the question. How can they make final bosses more interesting? Do you think they are intentionally making it harder to complete tasks in the game so players have to be online playing the game more? What are your feelings on raiding in season 4? While I like the concept of how they plan to hand out gear, here we sit discussing how punishing these raids were, do we really want to go back in there? Is mythic raiding too hard?

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas find out what's on the TSZ patrons minds with the May 2022 Patron Q&A! Episode #520: May Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! This week we asked our Patrons "What's coming to World of Warcraft that you are looking forward to most?" Jason and Spencer's answer to the question. Do you believe that we can expect a fundamental shift in the way Blizzard designs future expansions and communicates with its players, or do you think they will revert back to "systemcraft" and "knowing what's best" for the players? What you guys think is the best cinematic reveal to date (including vanilla)? How do you feel Blizzard is doing on tuning each of the raid difficulties and what, if anything, do you feel they need to communicate about the tuning? Is there less opportunity to recover from mistakes made during execution, even with gear appropriate for the raid? What do you like about how the raids are designed and what would you like to see changed? I want to know what is your fondest memory of WoW? What would y'all think about them bringing back the scrap bot from BFA but also have it return valor spent to upgrade said item along with the crafting materials for that type of gear? With the training of our dragonflight and the importance they're putting into it. Do y'all think that either a whole raid, a raid boss or a mythic specific dungeon will require mechanics using your Dragon like Occulus did in Wrath? When doing less important WoW tasks, are you in game soundtrack or listen to music kind of people? Trying to reach the show?

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas find out what's on the TSZ patrons minds with the March 2022 Patron Q&A! Episode #511: March Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! This week we asked our Patrons "What do you think of ZM so far?" Jason and Spencer's answer to the question. Brainstorming better loot systems for the Game. "How you feel about the race to World first and the complains about the length. Personally I don't have an issue with the fact, that it takes more than two weeks to kill the final boss of a tier. The event around the race is something the guilds decide to do and I think Blizzard is not supposed to balance the game around these." "I'd be interested in a "Expansion Review", top things you liked, top things you disliked. Maybe a wishlist for next expansion. Points to sustain, points to improve." "Would be really interested to hear you guys discuss the proposed Season 4 that's planned for later this year and what you think about it." Trying to reach the show?

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas find out what's on the TSZ patrons minds with the January 2022 Patron Q&A! Episode #501: January Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! This week we asked our Patrons "What's your favorite tier set of all time?" Hey Spencer and Jason, I have two questions and wanted to ask before I forgot them. The first one being how do you two feel about content creators/ the people how follow them trashing on WoW excessively? I am not saying all creators/followers are like this but I think some "groups" are just a little too harsh or seem like they just want to start arguments for lack of better words and it really brings me down. The second question being on a lighter note, if there was one zone you could pick to live in which one would it be and why? Why did you first choose the current role (healer, tank, dps) you are in and what makes it fun/exciting for you? My question would be if you think we are seeing more of the shift they were doing in 9.15 (respecting players time, more alt friendly) in 9.2? I can't get invited to keys, any suggestions? Set piece drops vs. Tokens. Do you think their newly announced system, including tokens, will provide the bad luck protection, while still allowing teams to progress at the speed they desire?

What is the advantage of even adding a second legendary versus just improving the baseline Covenant abilities? If the WoW devs gifted you each with the ability to create your own expansion with full creative control, what would it be?

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas find out what's on the TSZ patrons minds with the November 2021 Patron Q&A! Episode #490: November Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! What's New this Week in World of Warcraft! What about 9.2 are you most looking forward to? Pursuant of the conversation about the gap in access to the raid bosses, what do the two of you think of this design idea, and if you were going to use a split raid or some other raid change to help lessen the long tail of an expansion, how would you design it in broad terms? Do you think 9.2 will have an impact on the player numbers? From my friends list some people are giving SL a second shot but I am not sure if that's an overall trend. What two legendaries were you hoping to wear and what would it have opened up gameplay wise for you? Away from 9.2, with a lot of talk around how the end of Shadowlands will 'close a chapter of WoW' do you think that the next expansion will finally bring cross-faction end game content (raiding etc.) or indeed will there even still be an alliance and a horde come next expansion?

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this special episode, Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas discuss the upcoming 9.2 content release with Morgan Day! Episode #488: Talking 9.2 with Morgan Day! is ready for Download! The foundation of the questions we asked Morgan New Zone: Zereth Mortis How did working through the pandemic affect the plan for Shadowlands and getting a new zone added to each patch? This seems like a natural place for Shadowlands' story to resolve, but what went into actually getting it there? What is the plan for Legendary crafting in 9.2? We know we get the new materials from Zereth Mortis. How do we get them and about how long after patch would you expect players to have their first top-rank Legendary? Will we still need Rank 4 or Rank 6 base items to get started ? Will we still need Soul Ash/Soul Cinders to craft a new Legendary from scratch? Will there be Conduit upgrade items via Zereth Mortis? Are Conduits going up 2 more ranks, similar from S1 to S2? What kind of catchup mechanics are being planned to get characters to baseline relevance with the Conduit system at the outset of 9.2? New Feature: Cypher of the First Ones What can players expect from the Cypher in regards to progression? Is it gated weekly, similar to Renown? Is there player choice in which upgrades unlock when? Are unlocks account-wide to any degree? How do we advance our progress at the Cypher? Are there specific tasks/quests, fill-the-bar style activities, lootable items similar to Archivist's Codex, or something else entirely? Are we "speccing out" the Cypher, so to speak, choosing certain upgrades/perks at the expense of others, or does every character eventually get the full slate of benefits? New Raid: Sepulcher of the First Ones Can you talk a bit about the factors that went into the decision to time-gate the initial release? Can players expect a big shift in gameplay or the zone when they return the week after defeating the Anduin encounter? Are there plans for unlockable skips? What about fast-travel points around the raid zone, like Hellfire Citadel had? With tier pieces being available from other sources, is there an intent to put uniquely powerful items in the new raid? We saw probably not enough of that in Castle Nathria and maybe a bit too much in Sanctum of Domination. How is the team feeling about raid encounter length at the top end? Should we expect more 12-15 minute marathons? Did the team feel basing boss phase transitions on health, like on KT, was effective? It resulted in many teams having unwanted "hold dps" phases, is that something we might see in this raid? Great vault loot restricted behind bosses killed? New Loot: Class Sets Return Will the set bonuses be per class or per spec? Are there unique effects in Raid/M+/PvP or a set pair of bonuses per set? How many total pieces of each set are there? Is the goal with the class sets to shake up gameplay/rotations/priority or more to provide passive bonuses on top of what we're already doing? With set pieces dropping again, it would be nice to have tokens back. Has there been any thought about bringing Master Loot back? Shadowlands Season 3 Extrapolating high keystone versions of Tazavesh is a bit intimidating at the moment. Will we see changes to bring these dungeons in line with the rest of the pool? Operation: Mechagon was pretty on par with the rest of BFA, the additions to Legion were pretty big outliers. The Season 2 affix has been pretty fun, anything you can talk about regarding the plan for Season 3? We haven't seen anything in SL that affected dungeon routes the way Awakened did for example in BFA, is that a concept that might be revisited? How is the team feeling about the way Mythic + Rating/Valor have worked out in Season 2? Any notable updates coming in Season 3 or should we expect a similar path, just with 2 more dungeons in the pool? We know there are Torghast updates coming and new layers. Will Torghast still be a source for 9.2 Legendary mats or is that being 100% shifted to Zereth Mortis? Any updates to the Box of Many Things? What kind of new stuff will there be for Torghast players to chase? How does the team feel about the Great Vault this expansion? Any thoughts on adding some kind of duplicate logic to the system or a streak-protection/currency type of option? Looking ahead, what were the lessons the team learned over the course of Shadowlands and how are they informing future design? Trying to reach the show?
