    Last Attempt Guildcast — Slowest Race in Years + Sparks GONE + Warcraft TV Show? + WoW News — 030

    Welcome to the Last Attempt Guildcast. In this episode, Squirrelthug is joined again by guildmate Templrivanho, back on the panel after a week away. We open on week one of the Venomous Abyss closing as the slowest opening tier since Liberation of Undermine — Method finishing the week ahead at 5/9 Mythic while Liquid spent five days on Heroic splits, Blizzard cutting Malacrass's phase three bonus health from 35% down to 19%, and Liquid picking up a lair world first on Nymrissa Wavecaller. We get into a genuinely rough week for crafting, where submitted work orders are vanishing and taking Sparks and Mythic Crests with them, with customer support confirming it's a bug and having no way to restore what you lost. Also the 113,411 players who earned Fabled Vanquisher in week one against roughly four thousand who made the cut last season, bonus roll lockouts going live days before the announced date with no warning at all, an intermission bug that bricks Coiled Altar if your raid does too much damage, the campaign finale and its Dawn's Radiance sword, rock climbing back on the Coiled Isle, and an Ulduar timewalking week worth running for the loot sharing alone. Plus J'imothy turning out to be in the game after all, SoulSoBreezy's housing blueprint challenge restricted to gold-bought decor so beginners can actually import them, and a long stretch on Xbox reportedly shopping a bulk Hollywood adaptation deal that includes a Warcraft series — alongside the $25 mailbox mount, the UK-only McDonald's bread backpack, and exactly why brown shorts ruin the Vibrant Petalweave sets.Topics:• Slowest Week One Since Undermine• Crafting Orders Eating Sparks and Crests• Bonus Rolls Locked Early, With No Warning• Xbox Pitching a Warcraft TV Series___If you're looking for a Mythic team going into Midnight Season 2, we'reactively recruiting all roles.

    Last Attempt Guildcast — Method WORLD FIRST + Coiled Altar GUTTED + Evokers BROKEN + WoW News — 029

    Last Attempt Guildcast — Method WORLD FIRST + Coiled Altar GUTTED + Evokers BROKEN + WoW News — 029 Welcome to the Last Attempt Guildcast. In this episode, Squirrelthug is flying solo — Templrivanho couldn't make it this week, so this one is a shorter, looser run through the news, recorded Tuesday and landing a day late. We open on the Race to World First, where the Venomous Abyss has produced the longest race since Shadowlands and Method took their first world first in years on Vashnik the Malignant by working out that his red zone is the one you never touch. We get into the Coiled Altar hotfix that stripped roughly a hundred percentage points of hidden health off both bosses on every difficulty, a genuinely stacked week of free gearing between the campaign ring, uncapped Mistcrests off a single Cracked Keystone, and a three-week PvP chain for Hero-track jewelry — plus the Spark catch-up fix that shipped bugged for the second week running. Also the Prey questline's permanent portal to the Coiled Isle, Corrosive Souls being warbound and how to actually bank them, a rough week for Evokers who are disconnecting every few minutes off Battle Visage, a world quest that quietly wrecked people's turn speed, Jimothy turning out not to be in the game at all, and the BlizzCon 2026 Legends lineup with a McDonald's Happy Meal mount chaser. Topics: • Method's First World First in Years • Coiled Altar Massively Nerfed • Week One Gearing, and Another Spark Bug ___ If you're looking for a Mythic team going into Midnight Season 1, we're actively recruiting all roles. If you're a consistent raider who wants a focused-but-chill group that's still pushing, reach out.

    Last Attempt Guildcast — Vanilla's CUT Content + Mounts REVOKED + Spark Chaos + WoW News — 028

    Welcome to the Last Attempt Guildcast. In this episode, Squirrelthug is joined again by guildmate Templrivanho. We dig into the community case that content Blizzard cut from Vanilla is turning up in Classic Plus — and why the slow mounts, long walks, and attunements everyone remembers might be the entire point rather than something to sand off. We also unpack a genuinely messy week for gearing, where a leftover Midnight: World Tour turn-in handed some characters a third Spark of Tides and Blizzard's fix was to give everybody four at the August 18 reset, the Season 2 tier lists landing right on top of two rounds of trinket hotfixes, and Mythic L'ura mounts being pulled off accounts for policy violations that appear to be catching players who paid in gold rather than real money. Plus the Tettles interview with the encounter designers, bonus rolls getting reshuffled and then quietly trimmed before they even unlock, the hidden Slitherfang pet the secret finders cracked, four new housing Endeavors — one of which drops a portal to the Coiled Isle in your neighborhood — and Blizzard closing FY26 as the top-performing studio in Xbox's division. Topics: • Vanilla's Cut Content in Classic Plus • Mythic L'ura Mounts Revoked • Spark Chaos & Week Zero Gearing • Season 2 Tier Lists & Hotfixes ___ If you're looking for a Mythic team going into Midnight Season 1, we're actively recruiting all roles.

    Last Attempt Guildcast — Delve Boss AddOn KILLED + Ulduar Teased + Xbox Revenue Falls + WoW News—027

    Welcome to the Last Attempt Guildcast. In this episode, Squirrelthug isjoined again by guildmate Templrivanho. We dig into Patch 12.1 stripping add-ons of direct access to Aura information — Blizzard's move to finally put computational add-ons to rest, already in motion with the hotfix that killed the automated Azta'rec Delve boss helpers. We also unpack the resurfaced Chris Metzen BlizzCon clip pointing the Worldsoul Saga back toward Northrend and Ulduar, China's enormous 21st anniversary celebration with BlizzCon Shanghai and a redirected Race to World First prize pool, and Xbox's rough Q4 earnings and what a "return to growth by FY27" promise means for Blizzard's corner of Microsoft. Plus the Venomous Abyss raid preview and its weekly power ramp, last call on Decor Duel rewards, and a new Twitch drop landing on launch day.Topics:• Add-Ons Lose Aura Access• Metzen's Northrend & Ulduar Tease• BlizzCon Shanghai & China's 21st• Xbox Q4 Earnings Fallout___If you're looking for a Mythic team going into Midnight Season 1, we'reactively recruiting all roles.

    Welcome to the Last Attempt Guildcast. In this episode, Squirrelthug is joined again by guildmate Templrivanho, and we’re happy to welcome guest-host Vel. We dig into one of the wildest WoW stories in recent memory — a Blizzard employee fired for using GM-only developer tools to help cheat a +23 Nexus-Point Xe’nas key — then cover Midnight Season 1 winding down and the achievements, mounts, and dungeon teleports about to expire, the mounting evidence pointing to Patch 12.1 and Season 2 landing August 11th, plus the live BlizzCon 2026 digital bundles, a fresh round of 12.1 PTR class tuning, and Jimothy the viral Seattle raccoon somehow making his way to Azeroth.
