The Queue

My Season 11 Barbarian has 3 levels to go to hit 70 and I just killed Malthael, so it’s Adventure Mode for now. I’m still using the Seismic Slam build — I know it’s not the best GR clearing build, but I’m not likely to do Greater Rifts any time soon, so I’m just plugging away at my own pace.

Let’s talk about Blizzard stuff.

Welcome back to The Queue, our daily Q&A feature for all of Blizzard’s games! Have a question for the Blizzard Watch staff? Leave it in the comments!

I don’t know who exactly piped up at Blizzard and said “Hey, you know what we need? A disco, right smack in the middle of the Auction House,” but they deserve a raise. Or cookies. Or something along those lines, because this was without a doubt the best mini-holiday in game so far. The place was packed all day long, the Karazhan-disco fusion music was amazing, and everyone was thrilled to be there. I don’t know about every weekend, but I wish this were a monthly event, like the Darkmoon Faire. It was nice to just ditch all Legion-defeating responsibility and go hang out and dance for a while.

Goblins or Gnomes? The ultimate showdown… coming to a Queue near you… right now!

Okay. I admit I don’t exactly have a score to settle and it’s not exactly a showdown. Mostly I just think Gnomes are pretty great, and I hope you do too.

Y’all know the drill.

We’re going to jump into the Queue today. I’ve gotten to wax philosophical about music, in light of recent events, and it was fun.

Tauren just look natural holding big spears, don’t they?

One thing I love about the Wardrobe system is how I can wear the exact same mog on all my Warriors (and most of the same mogs on my Pally and DK’s, too.) My Tauren looks really cool in this set.

Okay, let’s get up to our Queue shenanigans.

Don’t feel bad about yawning, Lisbeth. I’m pretty sure if I were stuck behind a counter in Stormwind for as long as you’ve been, I’d feel exactly the same way. Let’s get to your questions, why don’t we?

It’s Wednesday. I’m tired of this week and maybe you’re tired of this week, too, but Friday still seems a long way away. So in lieu of writing an entertaining and thematically appropriate intro today, I’m going to mimic Rossi and post a picture of a Warrior in the header. Dang, she’s adorable, right?

Now that you’re distracted by that random change of subject, I throw you into today’s questions.

I spent a lot of time playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on 200cc with my brothers over the past few days, and, man, is it crazy how fast you go. It’s a blast, but it’s also as frustrating as you’d expect from a Mario Kart game. Worst of all is the newest rendition of Rainbow Road, which has a million ways to fall off and a level which I CANNOT SEEM TO DRIVE WELL ON NO MATTER WHAT.

Grumble grumble. Let’s do some question-answering.

Side bar: Man, you guys asked a lot of questions yesterday. It’s not usually hard to find a solid amount of them without having to pick and choose, but that wasn’t the case yesterday. My apologies if yours didn’t get answered!

Between the mass murder and the ending line, last night’s episode of Game of Thrones set up quite a bit to happen in the future, and was nicely satisfying.

But damn you HBO for showing Hodor in the opening promos… Hold the door, time for some Queue questions.
