Following Blizzard’s reveal of their patch 5.2 trailer, Josh Allen, Gary Gannon and Olivia Grace talk through the trailer, as well as Gary’s interview with Blizzard Lead Quest Designer Dave Kosak. There’s also challenge mode, titans, item upgrades, and much, much more!

  • Patch 5.2 ends the story of the continent of Pandaria, with the death of the Thunder King. From patch 5.3 onwards, we’ll be heading back to the old world to take the fight to the opposite faction. The crew discuss whether it’s too soon to abandon the new zone, and whether this confirms that 5.4 will be the last raid tier of the expansion?!
  • We also look at Dave’s response to a tin-foil hat question about Ra-Den and the future role of the Titans in WoW lore. Could the next expansion actually be more focused on the Titans, rather than the expected return of the Burning Legion?
  • And the speculation is correct! There IS a seventh sha, and he is going to show himself! Josh, Gary and the Chatroom discuss what the seventh sha could be called…
  • We discuss the impact of Blizzard’s decision to remove Ra-Den from the Dungeon Journal.
  • Ion Hazzikostas’ posts and Ghostcrawler’s tweets indicate that the Item Upgrade system might never return after patch 5.2. What changes could Blizzard make to make this system viable?
  • We finally hear about some potential new 5-man content in Mists, as the devs discuss challenge modes being added to old instances such as Arcatraz and the Shattered Halls
  • And Olivia throws her drink on herself trying to make a point about out of control shoulders, while responding to a viewer question!

And, of course, we answer your viewer questions! Send your questions in to submit@gamebreaker.tv, we particularly love your video questions, and keep an eye on our facebook to submit them there!

    Anything involved with Helping titans, would either be FIGHTING Burning Legion, OR Elder Gods.

  • christopher murray

    epic intro

  • mcfoyle

    think its possibel they are accelerating WoW’s life as they get closer to Titan announcement?
    i seem to remember way back when they wanted a player level cap of 100 in WoW, maybe they want to get to that before throwing Titan into the mix

    Olivia I heard you briefly say your laptop shut down, if it does that often it could be the CPU cooling fan is getting clogged or not working correctly & starts overheating so the system shuts down to prevent damage. I’ve seen this often at work repairing PCs, lots of times the fan gets clogged by a dust clump. Removing the fan & cleaning can cure it but all laptop models are different & some are easy to get to while others are difficult. Often people like using the laptops on blankets & beds which is bad since the fan tends to draw in hair & dust, also increases internal temperature causing fan to spin even faster.

    Look for the fan & you can see if it is spinning but they don’t always move until it is needed…running a video can cause enough processing to kick in the fan.

    Unless it’s going to sleep or hibernate then you can change power settings in screen saver section to never hibernate if powered is plugged in (in Vista or windows 7 right click desktop & select personalize > click screen saver > click change power settings) . If running on batteries it may be best to allow it to sleep/hibernate but you can increase the timer if needed.

    just my thoughts, could be something different too

      She may want to consider reducing her laptop processor speed by 5 percent.  This could reduce the chance of overheating with a minimal impact on performance.

         If you cant run FULL out , you shouldnt run at all.

    Great episode

  • Key Foster

    love this show, me and Lore have the same cup, the sango (did I really have to mention my cup lol). But really good show hold on to that beer Olivia, and Garry your just krazy lol.

  • D_zee315

    Ideas for what it may be: Sha of Agony, Sha of Corruption, Sha of Pain, Sha of Suffering.  And now the ones people do want: Sha of Prayers, Sha of Pure Evil, Sha of 51st shade of gray, Sha of Why won’t it drop my gear?, Sha of Racism.

    nice the old intro is still better then stupid panda

  • Kevyne_Shandris

    Panderia, becomes like Outland and Northrend even before the next expansion?

    Why do devs continue to just throw away real estate like that? WoW will soon become a dimensional portal land, as the Azeroth map won’t have anymore room for land masses.

    And we need another faction. This Alliance and Horde system (especially now since there’s no real loyalty to either, when Blizzard allowed you to play each faction on one account…and even offering achieves to do so). It’s about time to inject playing something but glorified humanoids and animals (mech faction? Gnomes and engineers will be in heaven. Let them use their skills to repair those demos even, since healers sure can’t heal or even dispel the 100000000000000001 DoTs ingame now).

    Titan pre-expansion would be much better than a third TBC style expansion…which isn’t bringing back the veterans. It’s bleeding subs due to the same o’ same o’. Want TBC 24/7, bring the expansion only realms. I’m sure there will be 10,000 of the 9.6mil will be playing on one realm, same goes for vanilla/WotLK and even Cata expansion only realms.

    These expansions are becoming 2 parts now. Cata turned from a TBC wet dream to a botched WoTLK styled end-game. This is repeating in MoP, with TBC style system to vanilla Cross Roads PvP (and probably as botched, as we sure didn’t have these many DoTs that can’t be removed, nor 188+k hits on resil gear…resil gear didn’t exist then, and why PvP gear is 2 tiers behind).

    New faction; new game theme (not Back to Ulduar!); no more Alice in Wonderland lore and with Pokeman and bunnies. It’s called Warcraft, so let’s see the war and craft (not making it as easy as the bots running the heroic dungeons and BGs now).

    after a half year? of netflix adds i finaly yesterday choose to try it out but then gamebraker had put the adds down haha

    • http://quintlyn.com/ QuintLyn Bowers

       Will still have Netflix as well. We just alternate them. We’ve been doing it for a while now.

    How about the Sha of Chaos. It breathes in Harmony and breathes out Chaos. Hellscream has been pretty chaotic.

  • Deadnstien

    MoP’s Ruby Sanctum will be Lorewalker Cho. We find out he is actually a corrupted Celestial in disguise that has been trying to kill us all along…  

  • http://twitter.com/dularr Dularr

    Starting to think it’s the Sha of Pride.

  • Juan Marquez

    Found the viewer question about flamboyant armor pretty funny. The example the viewer gave of “classy” armor was like two gigantic books with a sword through one.

    Real understated. Bwwhahaha.

    I thing the problem with the gear is that they pull them out of the air. If they themed them better to the character and raid it would be better. As far as the gear being unrealistic, I will say the same thing I always say to people talking about realism in wow. It is a game with alien goats, werewolves, talking cows/bears, dragons, demons, and magic. Tell me how any of that is realistic? So if the game is built on it being unrealistic. Then why not go all out. If you want realistic your playing the wrong game, play chivalry or something.

    Lore looks like a cross between 80′s superstars Bono and Michael Jackson in this episode.
