Inside the Ruins of Sescheron in Act 3 of Diablo 3, players could venture into the Immortal Throne Room, where spirits of long-dead Barbarians stood watch over the body of Chief Elder Kanai. Exploring this small corner of Sanctuary, players were told that the time was not yet right — there was nothing you could interact with and nothing to fight in the throne room.

It's Tuesday all over again, which means it's time for a fresh batch of free heroes in Heroes of the Storm.

Welcome to the first edition of The Tavern's BioWare podcast: Swords and Shields.

A recent Legion build added new battle stones that would increase the maximum rarity of pets from rare to epic — and because epic pets would be a lot more powerful than rare pets, it would mean everyone would have to get them in order to do Legion pet battles.

Can’t keep up with all of the great WoW-centric (and WoW-adjacent) webcomics out there?

Another day, another set of garrison missions, shipyard missions, and other daily (or weekly) tasks for whatever goals I've set myself in game.

Though not extensive reworks for either hero, both Nova and Rehgar will see some changes in next week's Heroes of the Storm balance patch.

Now let’s get on to the business of the Queue. Mitch and I will be tag-teaming, as has become our Thursday custom.

I know that Legion is a long way from being finished.
