Watching Blizzard: Day one (Patreon)

We’re one day into Battle for Azeroth, the servers are stable, and there’s a lot of leveling to do. And if you’ve skipped sleep to level instead, there are always alts. And dungeons. And Mythics. And achievements. And… well, you get the idea. There’s lots to do.

There’s so much to do that I can’t imagine who has time to stop and read, except as a way to kill time when stuck somewhere you can’t play WoW. If you’re one of the poor individuals who cannot play WoW right now, here is a collection of the day’s news so you can read everything with a little less scrolling. (You’re welcome.)

Stop what you’re doing and watch this Jaina cinemtic

• This glimpse into Jaina’s fears was meant to play before Alliance players landed in Kul Tiras… but a bug meant that the first players hitting the island didn’t see it. So if you didn’t see a cinematic before Kul Tiras just drop whatever you’re doing and go watch it. You can thank me later.

There are already a lot of 120s out there…

• For the semi-sane person, it takes about 12 hours of dedicated effort to hit max level. But three players from Method managed to do it in a scant five hours. Adam has compiled a list of things that take longer than that speedy trek to 110.

Sure, there’s a lot of new content, but…

• There are also new cats in Court of Stars. Who has time for witches and dinosaurs when there are cats to pet?!
• Of course, this means Muffinus is taunting us with a brand new secret — though no one’s figured it out yet.

Don’t want to go back and do old dungeons?

• If you aren’t tempted by cats, how about Mythics? BFA Mythics are open now.

And Mythics are just the first step!

• Raids open on September 4, which means you only have a couple of weeks to get geared up and ready to go. Here’s how to get started.

And that’s everything for today… but tomorrow is day two. It only gets more exciting from here, right? Well, we’ll see when I no longer feel the need to post a countdown. Until next time, this is Liz, signing off.
