Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kurabara are back to get excited for Patch 12.1 Curse of Ula'tek which releases on August 11th! But before they look ahead, Rei talks about her experiences running mythic+ at the end of Season One. She also talks about getting a new mouse and the struggles of running a guild with low membership.

Eric meanwhile has his highest m+ rating at over 3400. He also talks about tanking all the normal raids and working on Prey and the other achievements.

Kurabara talks about leveling his Devourer Demon Hunter and how the spec plays better at level 90. He does need to be careful on his backflips.

Next, everyone takes the patch 12.1 Quiz! Find out how well you are prepared for everything coming in the new content update! Also, send us your score on the quiz to wowtalk@mash.gg for a chance to win a Stoneforged Sentinel mount courtesy of Blizzard!

In the news, an update to the dye system is also coming in Patch 12.1. There will be a new twitch drop for some transmog. The Dungeons and Dragons and World of Warcraft crossover has been announced. Project Camelot servers have been updated. And finally, Blizzard is apparently the most successful Xbox studio at the moment, which should be cause for celebration but instead is just more cause for concern.

And to close things out, Nick talks about the Prey system a little more.
