The Queue: Just thrilled to be here
Rossi’s gnome monk looks about as pleased to be tanking for us as Rossi is about playing a monk in general. Have you checked out our WoW leveling stream on Thursdays yet? You can catch the back episodes on our YouTube channel. On to the questions!
The Queue: Woo-Hoo
Listening to Blur’s Song 2 and just letting the beat roll over me. I know it’s supposed to be satirical, but that’s the problem with doing a satire too well — they actually crafted one of the best grunge songs I’ve ever heard in the process. It’s up there with Sebadoh’s Flame and Pearl Jam’s Go, in my opinion.
Let us discuss your questions, good people.
The picture of Maiev is unrelated.
The Queue: Thrall dislikes Noblegarden

A true Warchief would never partner with bunnies. Speaking of which, don’t forget that Noblegarden ends tomorrow — if you haven’t picked up the new Mystical Spring Bouquet, you might want to get that done!
The Queue: I got a new pet

I have a new pet. It is the best pet ever, there is no convincing me otherwise, and if you really thought I’d name it anything else well, I don’t know what to say to you. But I do know how to answer questions, so let’s do that instead!
The Queue: Suspended
Welcome to the Queue, the daily Q&A column for all things Blizzard.
Earlier this week I was goofing around in Dragon Age: Inquisition and found a really neat set of ruins where everything was just … frozen in time. It was weird and kind of creepy. But it was also really visually striking, and I found myself thinking back to the Caverns of Time and how I’d like to see more stuff with it. It also made me wonder if bronze dragons have the capacity to simply halt time altogether — after all, we got a really cool sequence of time reversal in the Murozond encounter during Cataclysm. I’m sort of hoping we haven’t seen the last of the Infinite or the bronze dragonflight, because both concepts are just too interesting to pass up.
Also, I did in fact fix the whole frozen temple thing and everything promptly collapsed. I’m still a little sad about that one.
The Queue: We need more Rexxar
Welcome to the Queue, the daily Q&A column for all things Blizzard.
One of today’s questions reminded me that we really don’t have enough Rexxar right now. That’s a situation that should be fixed, because Rexxar is basically the best, even if he doesn’t have Misha on this version of Draenor. I’ll forgive that. But I still think we could use more of everyone’s favorite Mok’Nathal.
The Queue: My fever is writing The Queue today
I spent last night thinking about humans. We’re terrifying if you really stop and think about us. We can eat things that are toxic to most other species. We can survive broken bones, gunshot wounds, all manner of injuries that would incapacitate or even kill most other species on Earth. Humans used to hunt by simply walking after our prey until it fell down dead from exhaustion. Then we figured out how to make things get dead even more efficiently. Spears, spear-throwers, slings, bows… we’re a terrifying bunch.
The Queue: No val’kyr here
I kind of wish there were more pet battle guides out there that didn’t automatically assume I’ve just got an Unborn Val’kyr sitting around to use for every battle, because I don’t. There’s a limit to how far out of my way I will go to do some pet battling, and camping the wilds of Northrend is over that line. I just want to beat the Celestial Tournament for once, you know? Just once would be neat.
The Queue: Adding insult to injury
You know, I’m guessing all those old raid bosses are already mad enough, seeing as how we can merrily tromp into their former fortresses and defeat them in a matter of seconds. But I’m pretty sure nothing is more downright humiliating as when a would-be hero takes a moment to stop, reflect, and snap a selfie before going on a stomping spree and nabbing all the loot.
I think I need to get selfies with all the raid bosses, now. Just for my own personal collection. Hm, who to tackle next? While I ponder that, let’s answer some questions.
The Queue: Disgusted noises
I’m pretty sure this is the best selfie I’ve ever taken on my draenei character, and it has nothing to do with my character and everything to do with the utterly disgusted glare from the woman behind her. I do find myself wishing that we had “pose” buttons on our camera bars that would let us do an emote with a push of a button while we were happily snapping our selfies. I almost think I’d like that better than the camera filters!
