Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kurabara are back to talk about the state of the World of Warcraft! First, Rei updates us on how things are going in Minnesota. Then, the gang starts talking about how buttons are missing from all specs. Rei got her charter neighborhood open, but Nick wants neighborhoods to be more social. Rei talks about an add-on to track endeavor participation. Nick and Rei discuss some of the delve achievements.

Next, they discuss the State of Azeroth video featuring Holly and Ion. Nick comments that all the road maps hint at big announcements at Blizzcon. He then complains about how Ion introduced the housing cinematic, even though it was a nice cinematic.

Eric talks about how raiding has been trivialized in the pre-patch. He and Rei are working on some secret achievements. He and Nick discuss the devourer demon hunter meta. As an aside, Nick praises the comments on WoWhead.

Kurabara talks about being excited for Prop Hunt coming in patch 12.0.5. He is working on getting his alts to 80 and decorating his Horde house.

Finally, they take a quick look back at the announcement of Dragonflight.
