[00:00] Thank you.

[00:30] Thank you.

[01:00] Thank you.

[01:30] The End

[02:00] Thank you.

[02:30] Thank you.

[03:00] Thank you.

[03:30] Thank you.

[04:00] This is a cool bottle man, it's a liter and a half, it's got like a little straw bit going

[04:27] to it. Glorious, glorious. Alright guys, we're going to get a little group together. Let's see if Harry wants to come along. Oh yeah, we got a healer. We're good, we're good. How you guys doing? I'm doing good, I'm doing good. I'm hoping everyone else is doing good as well.

[04:46] We got a fantastic fin to it As I said before we do have a lot there is a lot of changes I did tweet this out There a lot of changes There a lot of changes to Commercial waterbot was so small and shit

[05:02] Oh, that's why I wanted to film it, I wanted to turn off my Warmode. So there is a few changes to Iron Deck Position, so still isn't a dedicated UI to execute, but that's not too much of an issue. We can deal with that, so...

[05:14] I was going to turn it off Warmode, because I really don't like it when you're 120. But I believe there might be some rewards, which is good, and there is some achievements as well. So we're going to have to look at what that's all about, and give it a go.

[05:29] So we'll go over the achievements in a second. Let me just get to the table first. We also have this mount which was gifted to us by Harry. It's the fucking beast. Oh yes, give me some of that. Wow, we're lagging a little bit.

[05:41] What's going on? Right. So how's everyone doing today? I'm doing today, what is it, Wednesday? No, is it Wednesday or is it Thursday? It's Wednesday, yeah it's Wednesday my dudes. Alright so we have some new achievements, so it's under the

[05:55] expansion features section, and exhibitions. So apparently I've won 50 expeditions on Mythic Ohio, which is not true, and that one's not true either. Complete expeditions, so you actually have specific ones for specific zones. So like the Dread Chain, you have an expedition on any difficulty,

[06:13] and basically like that at the moment. There's the Molten K, which I really want to try. And yeah, there's loads. There's actually a few... There's like a ton. So you've got these achievements here,

[06:25] which give you nothing at the moment. You've got 10 exhibitions on PvP. Kill a player that is affected by sticky starfish, whatever the hell that is. Collect 10...

[06:37] Collect a million Azurite and other exhibitions. There's loads. There really is. So I think it's time to queue. So we'll start off, I think we should start off with a normal.

[06:50] We'll just start off with a normal. Start off slow. What is it you say that the video's come to sound the way before gentlemen? Uh, mostly. Well, ladies? I saw a flag on the beta wall as the sound never ending raining, raining fire spell.

[07:03] Yeah, I heard about that. I thought I'd wear a hoodie for the stream, but I'm really fucking hot now, so I'm gonna I'm gonna get rid of that.

[07:15] Yeah, I keep seeing it on, um... I keep seeing it on Reddit. People doing that. Oh yeah, we got a new loader screen as well. This t-shirt's not very great. I might just change it in a bit.

[07:27] Um... Alright guys. We also have a new... So we've got this little bit here, which, uh... Which one are we? The Whispering Reef? Oh, there's also... Ooh, this is a new one.

[07:40] It does not fucking work. What? Does what? Oh, right. My man.

[07:52] Oh, I actually have some mythic... Speckwee. Okay, we're trying out Fury, I guess. Ladies and gentlemen, thanks. Yeah, dude. Wow, 100 views already. Thank you, guys. Appreciate that.

[08:04] Okay, so let's see what goes on. So we've got a guild group. And this is, as I said, this is a new map. but I've not actually been to this one. At least I don't think so. All the maps are, like, fairly similar.

[08:17] But yeah, they've also added where you don't actually see how much Azerite NPCs give you anymore. So it used to give you a number on each NPC, but it doesn't anymore. Which is kind of nice. It makes it so you're not just randomly farming, like, the same NPC over an effort.

[08:29] So, and I think Elites give them a bit more as well now. But we are trying out New Fury, so bear with me if the DPS is a little shit, and the gameplay is a little bit sketchy. But I think it should be fine. Hello the Wrexile day, Dermen. Welcome to the stream.

[08:44] So we're not... so at the moment we're not actually gathering any as right for ourselves. Let's see. Alright.

[08:58] So yeah, Victory Rush is back on Fury, which is pretty damn good. So we've got 7,388. Let's see if we actually gain any when we kill stuff. I don't think we do. Let's have a look.

[09:12] Let's have a look, shall we? Oh, bonus objectives. So yeah, you get these like... No. So you get these like, random bonus objectives, so you got this one like, key obtain, and then deshi helped. So if we basically got to get a key from somewhere, and then help this, um, this dude out,

[09:24] and that will, uh... That'll, um, give us, I think it's like 400 Azrai as well for doing the mini objectives. So it's actually worth it if, uh,

[09:36] if you are doing it. Um... Ah, these flopped out of course. Um... It's not about fighting for what we hate, but saving what we love Damn that a heavy thing Haha Um Yeah we are live on Twitch as well guys I don really know why I keep doing these stream because Twitch is just

[10:00] We are getting like, peak 10 viewers on Twitch, so it's not exactly ideal. But yeah, well there we go, we've got the key. Click on the unlock-in.

[10:14] What do you think it'll be a phase pre-patch coming up to live? Probably next month in July at some point, I would imagine. It'll be about a month before release. So yeah, around July 14th, around sort of that week, which is pretty soon.

[10:30] It ought to come on the PTR pretty sharpish, honestly. I kind of hope it'll be this week on the PTR, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure. What's your real name, Mr. James? Are we looking at Adrian?

[10:42] I'm not an Adrian, no, I'm a Dan. Adrian? No, I literally, I know no one called Adrian. It's not a very common name in the UK.

[10:56] Yeah, so... Oh, man, we've got a follow on Twitch, and it's the old... I need to sort that out. We've got the old... We've got the old fucking alert.

[11:10] I don't know. Ah, Mr. Snuggle in with the sponsor, my man. My man, we actually got a new alert, so wait for it in two seconds. I'm hoping it works. I'm hoping it works. The sponsor ones always take a little bit longer than the subscribers and stuff.

[11:25] I am stuck. There we go. Here he comes. Yes, boys.

[11:37] Mr. Snuggle, thank you very much, man. the sponsorship went out. It's alright dude, you're actually still... Ah, does he? I think he still has like the amount of like, you still have a month for whatever you did before.

[11:50] So thank you so much dude, I really appreciate that. That's awesome man. I actually, yeah, I'm hoping they improve the sponsorship system, like to go on to videos and stuff like that soon, but we'll see, we will see.

[12:05] Dickie Dan? What's going on October Day Dan, man? I hear, I keep seeing your tweets dude, like you're killing it on YouTube I think. From what I read anyway, I see people liking your tweets and stuff. That's cool man.

[12:17] Congrats. Um, they... Sam Daniel, no at least 3 down from the UK. Yeah, it's relatively common there. There we go, there's some advanced AI jumping around.

[12:31] They have the worst health, like literally. I could just solo this entire group. I guess we are on normal though, so what do you expect? What do you expect from normal? Yeah, I think we'll go from normal to heroic next and then we'll do a prior mythic maybe.

[12:47] Ooh, look at that, a naughty little boy though. He's, uh, why they're so easy? Ah, we're in normal, dude. Uh, Jen, how you doing? Looks like you're one Azerite from that, from that boss.

[13:05] How are I'm going to show you the Island Exhibition map? It's in the Junkin Journal. I mean I did do a video on it but I guess no one got the notification or something.

[13:19] How are they? They're really good. I really do like this feature. I think it's one of my favourite features of the expansion honestly. I just want to see all the new maps and stuff. Uh, hey Ncm, hey Jem, what's going on?

[13:36] Uh, PureCringe, hi. Hello. Ooh, look at this little bunch of ads right here, look. Um, what do you get for finishing it? So, I don't actually know, I believe they did tweak

[13:48] their rewards. Um, there is mounts and stuff that have a chance to drop, but we are yet to see any of those, but we'll have any idea of how they're actually meant to come. I believe I believe it is a drop. From the dungeon journal, it looks like a drop of some kind,

[14:02] but it just says... It literally says, I'm next to this, so I'm not really sure. But yeah, we will see. There's actually a new finish screen as well, which is really cool. So hopefully, if we win, we can...

[14:14] I'll show you what that looks like. I'm sick. How about you? Oh, man. I hope you're alright. I hope it's not too serious. I'm good. I'm good. I'm very good.

[14:27] Let me talk about it so far, what do you call it mate? One of my favourite zones, honestly it might even be one of my favourite zones in my house, just aesthetically, aesthetically that zone is absolutely immense.

[14:39] Yeah 400 adds right from the big boy would like to see Oh man Alright confused now we want to bug Um

[14:55] Azari... shot a little too high. We can't click that, so...

[15:07] Um... Explosion, how you doing on Twitch run? Just a few more days and I'm hoping to get into beta. That'd be cool, man. Where's the group? Anyway, we're over here.

[15:19] They're killing us. Someone aware. So blissfully and aware.
