Legendary 79: Tin-Foil 5.0 Blizzard Drops Clues On Mists of Pandaria

Well I hope so as there’s a chance it’s arriving much sooner than you thought.

While wearing our tin-foil hats, of course, it seems there are signs of life for Patch 5.0. For the uninitiated — don’t worry, there’s no paddling — Patch 5.0 will bring a lot of meat to the table in preparation for the full expansion’s launch.

Could we be seeing the precursor to MoP on the PTS shortly?

In other news, apparently Blizzard has lost its head. Well, its head enchants at least. It’s been confirmed that in MoP there will be no head enchants and there will be an end to rep grinding for shoulder enchants too.

Anyone shedding a tear over that?

Scribes will be delighted at the extra cash flowing into their coffers from being the sole suppliers of shoulder ‘chants. Is this fair on the other professions?

Throw in a hammer that you’d need one epic nail to find a use for, as well as your viewer questions, and we’re going to need to go old school for this show.

With that in mind, we welcome back returning champion Mike B aka Fony to be reunited with his bros Josh “Lore” Allen and Gary Gannon — careful, they may get misty — for this week’s Legendary!

Perfect now they can put into place the systems like they did last time and people can see what garbage they are going to make their class and not buy the box for MOP

  Patch 5.0 should be a blast!
  
  -Get to rollout my frost spec on my Mage, it currently hits like a truck at 85 on the MoP beta.
  -Going to play my lock, looks fun to play again.
  -Will love trying out Displacer Beast, Wild Charge, Faerie Swarm, Mass Entanglement, Typhoon, Disorienting Roar and Mighty Bash on my Resto Druid.
  
  Really want to see if you can run Cata content with a 8 sec CD on dispels.

Oh goody, Blizard are handing Inscription even more reasons to earn vast amounts of money, next thing we will hear is that they are giving shoulder enchants to Jewel crafters who are already making all the money from all the gems we HAVE to buy. bah!

  Inscriptionists make money? Wow, I need to move mine to your server…

Fried chicken. And crickets. How not to like?

The Rep enchants were all almost a month long grind. Will – Not- Miss- One- Bit

  Losing the rep enchants is a good thing.

  The problem was the grind, though, not the enchant. If they gave players more than one route to get the head enchants (and even multiple slightly different enchants for each role), it could be interesting.
  
  Anyway, the head enchants were actually pretty easy to get in Cataclysm, and since each enchant came from a different faction, you could do a different faction with each alt (and you could mail them to other characters).
  
  The real problem in Cataclysm are the _shoulder_ enchants, which force you do do the exact same quest line with every single alt.
  
  I leveled inscription on three characters just so I didn’t have to repeat all the bloody Therazane quests again (after going through them with 6 other characters…).

    Yeah, it was awful if you forgot to finish up Deepholm at level 82 and grind the dailies for xp.

I wonder if they simply dont want viewers anymore, srsly the nonstop netflix shouts is freaking iritating….and all the american jokes aswell…EVRYONE aint from USA you guys know…cant get netflix and dont understand the jokes
- http://twitter.com/Critzkreig Cody Moody
  
  Just because you aren’t from the USA, doesn’t mean Gamebreaker gets less money from Netflix. Seriously man. That’s how they make their money. Leave them alone, let them pitch Netflix.

  So.. fried chicken is an American thing? TIL

  I frequent eurogamer.com quite a bit for news and reviews. Often times their writers will use a joke or some lingo that I don’t ‘get’. Also, I’m not eligible for the contests that they promote, but you won’t see me bitching about it in their comment sections. I understand that the site is based in a different country, but I enjoy the content very much.
  If this is something that you just can’t deal with I’d suggest that you move on to another site.

Is this episode an advertisement for KFC ? o.o
- http://twitter.com/dularr Dularr
  
  While the pictures looked like Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles. MikeB was talking about good old home made artery clogging Southern Fried Chicken. Not that pressure cooker crap from KFC.

so far… 30 minutes of nonsense… how much are you earning per nexflix announcement? Gary… learn to sing… you were so much fun before the singing filler… Lore looks so bored…

  Love making hunter scopes and overpricing them on the AH. When a hunter gets that new bow/gun, they will pay just about anything to get the scope right a way.

Woot, woot. This is weekend is AV call to arms!

This is exactly the reason i watch Legendary, because sometime it has nothing to do with WoW. It’s all about entertainment.

And you are wondering why you guys are loosing people to your shows
You talk about nothing, and just act silly.. and that alone is just sad to watch, play with the phones, corny jokes..

Talk about the game, pvp, pve, patches, what you guys been gaming.. we click on to watch and hear about the game thro you guys.. not talking about chicken or netflix 24/7..

  With the D3 mess, blizz will be very closed mouth about WoW.

  very little is actually happening lately, so they have very little to talk about. Despite the lack of content, I still find this to be one of the best episodes to date. fluffing hilarious.

One of the best episodes ever. Goes to show that when there’s next to nothing new coming out of WoW/Blizzard that you guys can still be entertaining.
Keep it up!

You tell’em, Ol’ Ben.

Gary, I don’t care what other people say, you’re the best troll ever <3

You guys should really get Ghostcrawler’s personal bat phone. I bet he’d love to hear from you every week.

Cross-game rewards isn’t “so Blizzard”. It’s “so Valve”.

  Got to figure baby chinhawk will keep MikeB in line. MikeB is going to be such a good dad. Shouldnt take MikeB long to patch the baby monitor into his sound setup.
Mikahh

easy way to handle the enchant thing.. make purples up gradable like SWToR does.. is simple..cost effective.. and less stress than grinding rep and having to fly to get the enchant every time you need the enchant.. plus would save have to farm for a piece you like instead of you need.. plain and simple..btw.. i have played wow since BC.. and now have WoW on hold till release of MoP..
- http://twitter.com/dularr Dularr
  
  The moddable gear was a good idea for SWTOR, I had planned on upgrading my Slave Girl Outfit before I finally gave up on SWTOR and left.
  
  Getting rid of the rep grind in WoW for enchants is a good idea.
Mikahh

the enchant issue is simple.. use the SWToR approach.. use mods to upgrade purples..plain and simple..btw have played WoW since BC and have put WoW on hold and now playing alot of fps consoles as well as other MMO’s..just seams like a better system..

  Go back and watch his MikeB BFF reports on Youtube and ZAM by akamikeb. You can tell when he gets married.
Mikahh
