In the one hundred and eighth World of Warcraft podcast episode, we grind away at artifact power and gather all the order hall resources as we venture into Suramar for world quests, we wonder what alts are good for, and why we really need them, Sláinte fishes up his artifact fishing pole, and meets Nat Pagle himself once again, Molsan encounters annoyances and bugs with order hall class quests, and wants Exodar to burn to the ground, we organize our guild banks properly, and worry that everyone will steal our full stacks of Fjarnskaggl, and we mount up on our foxes as we prepare to take on the Druid leveling challenge.

Bitter and Salty is brought to you by Molsan and Sláinte.

In the one hundred and third World of Warcraft podcast episode, we determine the exact moment that Legion goes live in the US and the EU, and plan for all the DDOS attacks, we announce the raid schedule for The Emerald Nightmare, and plan to get our mains and alts raid-ready on or before September 20th, we debate about the reliance on addons for raiding in Legion, and whether or not Blizzard should nerf boss encounters so we can play with Stock UI, we are embarrassed to admit that we use mouse wheels and macros to make gold and do DPS, and we tell you exactly where you should not eat when you’re at the Anaheim Convention Center this year for BlizzCon.

Bitter and Salty is brought to you by Molsan and Sláinte.

Legion Launch Time

• 12:01 AM Pacific is Legion launch time, EU is later in the afternoon

World Quests

• https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/20252892#1
• Do you consider the Legion invasions “world quests”
• Leveling in invasions… dying just before getting the boss XP

Dungeon and Raid Schedule Released

• https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/20243893/legion-dungeons-and-raids-schedule
• Tuesday, August 30–When Legion is live, dungeons will immediately be available on Normal and Heroic difficulties. Mythic dungeon difficulty will be available after the weekly dungeon reset time.
• Tuesday, September 20–The Emerald Nightmare Raid dungeon opens on Normal and Heroic difficulties. Mythic Keystones will begin dropping which will allow increased challenge and rewards from Mythic dungeons.
• Tuesday, September 27–Mythic difficulty for the Emerald Nightmare Raid dungeon opens. The first wing of Raid Finder difficulty for Emerald Nightmare opens.
• Tuesday, October 11–Raid Finder Wing 2 of Emerald Nightmare opens.
• Tuesday, October 25–Raid Finder Wing 3 of Emerald Nightmare opens.

The Race to 110 by September 20th

• Alt-mains vs. co-mains… Nobody wants to talk about it or admit that it happens

Gamescom interview with Ion Hazzikostas

• Artifacts and artifact power will be relevant throughout Legion
• 7.1 content discussion already coming in a few weeks
• Admitted that content is being coded against STOCK UI

AddOns can’t be used in raids

• Only breaking addons in competitive situations (dungeons and raids) other addons are not affected
• Should raid encounters be simple like Vanilla
• Should raid encounters rely on addons
• Challenge (How long can you play with STOCK UI)

Content Longevity and Relevance

• Investing in artifact power on a “main” and then they nerf you… rage quit?
• Keeping raids and content relevant longer
• What if you experience raids and content later in the game? Are you a lesser WoW player?

DDOS

• What does it mean and why is WoW always down?

New Segment: Molsan is Embarrassed

• Mousewheel is back!
• For auctions and DPS
• If you use macros or a guide, does that make you a good or bad player

Salty Blizzcon Tip

• Do not eat from the food vendors inside the convention center

In the ninety-fourth World of Warcraft podcast episode, we ding 100 just like everyone else and head straight into separate Molten Cores, we spend all of our time running our alts through Garrisons crafting Truesteel Helms, Sláinte changes his name and introduces Azeroth to Dark Sláinte, Molsan repeatedly falls off of circular wind platforms in Skyreach, we run Scenarios, Proving Grounds, and defend invasions… all without leaving our Garrison, and we remind everyone that the auction house is neutral, you still need fifty thousand gold in the expansion, and play the game without reading any guides.

Bitter and Salty is brought to you weekly by Molsan and Sláinte.

Ding 100!!!

Now what? Molten Core? Level alts?

NAME CHANGE

MC runs

Same time… not same place??

Tanking trash

Fishing skulls in MC

Skyreach Wind Boss

Platform FAIL

Legendary Ring Quest

Gearing Up Beyond i600

Crafted Truesteel Set

i640 Inscription Trinkets

Garrison Missions for i615 now to equip at 100

“You can only have 3 crafted items equipped at once” – WHY

MC gives you an i640 helm… Of course the first item I crafted was a helm

Garrison Invasions and Gold Victory

“Once you reach max level, these events are triggered organically. What this means is, as you fight powerful foes among the enemy factions of Draenor (generally in and around the areas for Apexis Crystal Missions) you’ll draw their attention and an enemy force will eventually prepare to attack your Garrison. When that happens, the commander outside your Town Hall will have a quest for you, allowing you to trigger the invasion.”

Each award can be earned once a week

Invader’s Forgotten Treasure can contain an i645 piece or a mount
