Episode #334: June Patron Q&A!

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas sit down to talk with our Patrons about what's on their minds for the June Patron Q&A! Episode #334: June Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! What's New this Week in World of Warcraft! How do we feel about the body guard system? What's our view on recruitment vetting for heroic raiding? What was our favourite boss from BoDA? What's your most anticipated boss from the Azshara raid? What are our thoughts on the Baine scenario? Where are we going after this? Do you think Sylvannas becomes a raid encounter? What is your favorite zone in WoW? Mine would be Nagrand. Fond memories of idly skinning my way through critters while talking in guild chat. Lovely zone. BC Nagrand, to be specific. What do you think is the most outlandish/time intensive thing you wish you'd done prior to the patch that you didn't get to? So I'm barely into Nazjatar right now -- don't even have a follower to level 3 -- but at this point I've gotten two pieces of benthic gear that I've been able to upgrade to 410. Any impressions / opinions about how that gearing system is/isn't delivering for people? I want Vulpera as an allied race more than I want world peace, but I have a weird feeling that we're going to get Gilgoblins. I would really like to know how many hours per week you guys play WoW. It seems like it is a lot more than I do. But I am curious.

I know we talked about it before but if you could build the ultimate raid for the 15th anniversary what 8 bosses would you choose? They could come from any raid or dungeon from the party 15 years. As the classes are in Classic, what specializations do you think are missing iconic spells that weren't added until later in the game? Are there any junk items that hold sentimental value for you guys which you allow to take up precious bag and bank space, which you always scan over and never get rid of.

Episode #317: March Patron Q&A!

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas sit down to talk with our Patrons about what's on their minds for the March Patron Q&A! Episode #317: March Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! What's New this Week in World of Warcraft! If they were going to make another warcraft movie starring your main character then what actor should play you? Do y'all think we will get another new zone after nazjatar ala argus after the broken isles or just nazjatar? We heard a couple weeks ago about some of Spencer's early infamy with TSZ. Can you share something interesting or amusing from before you were a co-host? If WoW ever went away from the trinity of heal/tank/DPS, what current DPS spec do you think you'd play? I got back into WoW something like 2 month ago after being absent for about 5 to 6 years with the occasional I play a month whenever a new expansion hits. My main reason for coming back was a colleague of mine who wanted somebody to play the game with because he only started playing wow as a new player back in august and leveled up to 120 starting from 1 and without boost. One of our main problems that we keep running into is that I just use the weird WoW slang that we all do like HOT, DOT, BOE and so on. Since he never played a similar game before he lacks those terms which keeps being problem whenever I explain a new strat at an encounter. Do you guys know some good resource to read or watch to get a basic terminology down? And also how would you try to get really new people without a ton of experience into PvE? Instead of a heart of azeroth, what do you guys think each class would have as special power item? IE shamans would have "artifact" totems, hunters would have "artifact" pets. Your opinions on this idea and what other special items you think would fit the theory crafting. With us getting to the end of this tier, what did you think of it? Any tips for Mythic Mekkatorque? What's your prefered gaming chairs and headsets? Have you heard about our Patreon? It's a great way to support the show and goes towards making more content for you!

Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas sit down to talk with our Patrons about what's on their minds for the February Patron Q&A! Episode #311: February Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! What's New this Week in World of Warcraft! Turning on Warmode, how much honor I get from each kill, is there some sort of system for deciding how much honor you get? Is honorable kills the only way to get conqueror of azeroth? What are some Middle School appropriate games you'd recommend? What should we expect from Azerite Armor and the Heart of Azeroth in the furture? Thoughts on the negativity around this expansion? What's life like in a top 100 team? If you could have any pet (class specific or battle) from wow in real life, what would it be and why? I've started to think about tools to use outside the game to help me play the game, I've recently come across people using spreadsheets as help. Are you aware of it?, any known good resources, etc, etc. Also, anything else other than spreadsheets? I was looking through some of my old hard drives and found some of my old raiding videos from WotLK and Cata which I used to see if I could change or do things better. And the age old question popped into my head of which was harder 10 man or 25 man raiding? Have you heard about our Patreon?

Episode #306: January Patron Q&A!

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas sit down to talk with our Patrons about what's on their minds for the January Patron Q&A! Episode #306: January Patron Q&A! is ready for Download! What's New this Week in World of Warcraft! How would Warcraft end? How do you think it should end? Since most people got some winter weather this week what are yalls favorite snow day activities? And if you could take one system/ activity back to vanilla from the current game what would it be? I consider myself a player struggling with "grass is always greener" syndrome; anytime I am playing one toon, I see another sparkly class from another player and work on gearing that one instead. And the cycle repeats. This severely inhibits my progress with my "main" (more realistically, "main three") with reputation, heart levels, etc. What advice would you offer for those struggling to stick with the main toon they love so much yet easily put aside for other distractions? Jason, what is the best shield in the game? Spencer, which weapon do you wish Druids could use, and why is it Shields? There's a lot of complaints across the Wow-o-sphere about the Alliance WM quest, do you think it would be more effective at getting people engaged in War Mode if it required them to complete a number of Emissaries in WM rather than just kill enemy players? With the latest World first race just 4 days 14 hours away from beginning, What can blizzard do to balance the issues that the war mode option brings? Limit Faction swapped to alliance to get the current war front cycle reward, and the alliance quest to kill 25 players for 400 ilvl gear. Understanding that World first is actually a small percentage of the population of the players of the game, with alliance being the only faction having had the benefits of playing warmode. Obviously I am a horde player, but I just feel like with the ability to shard in and out of certain heavily faction populated shards how can blizzard go about balancing war mode?

Episode #300: December Patron Q&A Part 2!

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas sit down to talk with our Patrons about what's on their minds for the second part of our December Patron Q&A! Episode #300: December Patron Q&A Part 2! is ready for Download! What's New this Week in World of Warcraft! Any class we don't like playing in WoW? I'm not feeling burned out at the moment, I like the grind, are you guys feeling that? What class benefitted the most from changes going into BfA? Have we noticed fire mage is becoming a less played spec? Darkshore warfront topic Joke - What is red and smell like blue paint? As content creators for a game we all "hopefully" enjoy playing still… What's your take on some of the other content creators negative outlooks on the current state/future of the game? Do you feel there's any merit to it? Are you concerned with the current state of the game and it's future? The longer I play WoW the more and more jaded cynicism I see from players in the game. What do you guys do to combat that encroaching cynicism, or, are you just naturally the cheerful little lovebugs we hear every week. Do you have any in game WoW Christmas/Winter's Veil traditions? Do you open your WoW presents on Christmas Day? Do you participate in all that Winters Veil has to offer? Also, what are some real life holiday traditions for you and your family? In the past Jason mentioned "getting what you out what you put into the game" that was great advice during legion (as a tank - helping people in m+ and other content was great) that isn't the case anymore. How can we do the same thing in BFA? Yesterday I could barely get a PUG group through M0. Have you heard about our Patreon?

Episode #289: October 2018 Live Call in Show!

Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas sit down to talk the latest goings-on in and around the World of Warcraft! Episode #289: October 2018 Live Call in Show! is ready for Download! Questions we covered today! If you weren't going to BlizzCon what would you be doing for Halloween? What do we want to be announced at BlizzCon vs what do we expect to be announced at BlizzCon. What pets do we have? With blizzcon coming up next week I wanted to ask what you look forward to at the show the most each year and if you could change/add one thing at the con what would it be? Also, what suggestions do you have for first timers, what rookie mistakes can be avoided? If you could design a new class for your respective roles (heals and tank), what niche would it excel at? For example, resto druids excel at sustained raid damage, blood dks excel at self heal...what would your dream class excel at? If you had to wear a costume to get into Blizzcon, what would you wear? Along the lines of Chubbed and JeffToo, what should virtual ticket holders prioritize? How can we best take advantage of the VT? While the new azerite traits I have seen do appear to be more interesting than gen 1, the addition of the new outer ring is really underwhelming to me. The way it works right now is that each ring has a theme: class, role, and defense. I recognize that adding a second class ring is an improvement, but also seems like they are lacking some imagination here. What are your thoughts on Class Ring 2? Would you like to see those traits pulled from an entirely new pool, with Class Ring 1 pulling from the existing pool of traits? Alternatively, what if Class Ring 2 was randomized, while Class Ring 1 remains predetermined? Taking it a step further, what theme would you have chosen for a new trait ring? Hey Guys, You've talked in the past how raiding is very expensive. I know I end up purchasing tokens instead of farming to offset the cost, because I would rather not spend my in game time farming. You've also talked about how the game has shifted away from the "Guild" culture. What do you think about changing guild achievements to provide benefits for guild activities like raiding. One idea I have is once X number of cauldrons are dropped in guild raids, flasks taken from a guild cauldron last for twice the duration. Would like to hear other ideas you may have in this realm.
