The Queue: In the bleak midwinter
As I write this it’s been well above freezing for days, and nearly all the snow has melted. I’m not fooled — it’s winter in Canada, it’s going to come roaring back and dump frozen water all over us, that’s what it does. But it’s still bizarre to be in shirtsleeves weather in January. (Yes, slightly above freezing is shirtsleeves weather in Alberta.)
Time, my friends.
Here’s the Queue. Let’s talk about Blizzard games. There may be spoilers for Legion in this one. If there are, I’ll make sure to mention them in the question/answer part so you can skip them.
Breakfast Topic: With our friends
Know Your Lore: Diablo and the Dark Wanderer
The Queue: This will all be plate come Legion
That’s right, everything you see on the Night Elf above (minus the swords) will be plate armor in Legion. And man, I feel like that’s silly, because if any armor has ever not been plate, it is that collection of a scale corset and thigh high boots joined to hot pants that is the Glimmering Mail set.
This is the Queue. Let’s talk about Blizzard games.

Today’s Queue may be a little different. It’s a bit of an experiment on my part in answering a question in depth. We’ll see how it goes.
