A monthly+ podcast about adventuring alone in the World of Warcraft! Host Dave Gagne shares his years in Azeroth steering clear of most group content for various reasons. Why do you adventure alone? Even if you don’t, come for tips on casual play, solo play, diving into various aspects of WoW, exploring new and old places in Azeroth and beyond, and even finding your first steps into dungeon and raid content. Stay for the aural ambience, the drink of the month, and WoW news affecting solo players. This podcast adventure is now in its third exciting year! Available on Apple, Spotify, Amazon/Audible, YouTube, Podbean, Goodpods, and many other podcast feeds. To contact, find @soloqueuewow on all socials and at Gmail. I’ll see you out there!

    Show Notes

    Welcome to Episode 39! – 2:13

    Feeling lots of gratitude and a little sadness which we will talk about. Big thank you to you for supporting long-form audio content! Gratitude for the recent wave of growth of SQ, which has been downloaded in 57 countries, including a small wave in Vietnam. And, my wife and I have a strange, yet predictable real-life WoW interaction at a car dealership, of all places. Listen on, my friend!

    News – 6:37

    • Race to World First update, really? Don’t look here for final scores, but I love the surprise secret phase which generated excitement in WoW and even in the wider gaming community – WoW in the wider culture!
    • And then they released 12.0.5 which launched many features and many more bugs to fix. What is going on at Blizzard that this gets released in this state?
    • I suggest the 8-week patch cycle be returned to the 11-week model of the Legion era.

    A Farewell to Bricco – 34:57

    April saw the loss of former WoW podcaster and bright light in the WoW community Bricco. What started as sad news went deeper for me the more I looked into his WoW life. Husband, father, friend, and so much more, he will be missed by many, especially for his unending positivity. The Third Faction podcast’s tribute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-v6QITm9Mo

    Drink of the Month – 49:51

    This real glass of Jack Daniels Single Barrel Barrel-Strength Rye checks in at 130.1 proof. I tip the glass in honor of Bricco.

    More Than a Quest Giver – The Chronicle of Lesser Known Azerothians – 51:35

    The first of hopefully many short introductions to below top-tier NPCs beginning with the badass orc Ritssyn Flamescowl!

    Emergency Bonus News – 56:34

    • 0.7 gets announced chock full of features, but will it be another 8-week patch cycle fiasco?
    • Bellular 12.0.7 preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzQuzJtQfqk&t=180s
    • I invent the Running of the Kul Tirans community event with a sweet customization as a reward – make it so, Blizz!
    • TurtleWoW gets shut down and I get a content creator invite to a brand new “private” server – I call them illegal servers.

    Main Topic: Changing Keybinds After 11 Years – 1:13:57

    One-button rotation breaks the logjam of not wanting to change my keyboard commands and keybindings. The images will appear in the SQ Discord. I claim no expertise on this topic, but hope you enjoy me explaining my process that took nearly as long as this segment.

    “What Have You Done Lately?” – 2:00:11

    Crickets. Busy time of year. Getting alts to work on side questing. The debate about getting time in game led me to actually say the b-word out loud, burn out.

    Question Queue – 02:09:27

    I posed the question to the SQ of how long are your breaks from WoW? Times varied, but it is becoming clear to me that it is okay to take some time away.

    Closing Thoughts – 2:15:26

    But, I am still loving making this show, even when it’s difficult. BlizzCon is in 4 months! One last thanks to Bricco…

    Outro – 2:18:25

    Midnight Meanderings - Ep 38 SOLO QUEUE DISCORD now available: https://discord.gg/nXQVqERcSU Show Notes Welcome to Episode 38! – 2:13 Time to pin you down and force you to listen to what I think of Midnight so far. Or maybe just entertain you while you work or commute or mow the lawn or whatever it is you are doing. Thanks for bringing Solo Queue along! By the way, the countdown checklist idea on a podcast on the day that the U.S. launched four astronauts towards the Moon is sheer coincidence. In fact, my intro preview came out to Patreon supporters days ago. Serendipity, baby! News – 6:37 SQ Socials news Horde neighborhood – Desolate Collective – finally figured out how to add members beyond those on the original charter; not great for momentum, but the key was, as I suspected, strip down to no add-ons and the invite button on the roster actually functioned properly! The test was Gershom and she is the first new member; reach out in game or out if you want to move your Horde house to the Desolate CollectiveThe SQ Guild Solo Together is strong and growing. You can find it in the Alliance Guild Finder, but it is open to both factions. We have an Alliance side Guild Neighborhood that is open to members of the guild. If you want to join, just reach out and we will get you an invite, Horde or Alliance. It is a bunch of cool people of many different backgrounds hanging out, checking in on each other, all very casual. New Discord link: https://discord.gg/N86fhRkDem If you are good people, come check it out. I am @sweeperdave on Discord and of course, soloqueuewow on everything else out there. GT change/delay – yeah, life finds a way into all of my plans; GT on hold, but will return; also quietly on hold is this year’s 64-competitor single-elimination tournament among Warcraft characters will take a year off.Rufus is available, Habitat for Humanity; through May 12; The mini war hammer in the mouth is amazing.Music video/marketing from WoW and the musician Aurora is fantasticS1 – what is open, what is left? A lot of S1 is now open with the arrival of M+ keystones last week and the Darkway delve. For raids, the Voidspire and the Dreamrift both opened on Mythic difficulty. All other diff of the Dreamrift, the one-boss raid, opened the previous week. For the Voidspire, LFR wing 2 is available, as is the as-yet-unimproved Story Mode version.Coming this week with the March 31 reset is wing 3 of LFR for VS along with the Normal, Heroic, and Mythic versions of the 3rd raid of Midnight, March on Quel’Danas. This is a 2-boss raid. The Raid Finder/LFR and SM versions arrive the following week on April 7. And the final delve, the Parhelion Plaza opens this week as well. New nemesis for the season is Nullaeus, and Valeera Sanguinar is here to help you through all of the Delves. A Race to World First update? On Solo Queue? 9 bosses from all 3 of the raids, with of course the final 2 bosses taking the stage on Tuesday with the launch of the March on Quel’Danas.As of the time of recording, there are three familiar names that have cleared the first two raids and are awaiting the penultimate boss: Liquid, Echo, and Method. Six more teams are trying to take down the final boss, identified as the Crown of the Cosmos in the Adventure Guide. Spring sale on Bnet – pets and mounts and packs of stuff, along with certain game servicesTwitch drop is the Cuddly Void Grrgle; before April 23; watch 4 hours of WoW on Twitch0.5 preview of what is interesting No release date yet, but an 8 week cycle would be April 28, so there is still plenty of time.The Voidforge will help to upgrade gear. That said, the Nebulous Voidcores that you will need to upgrade gear come from M+ d, raids, Bountiful Delves, and Nightmare level Prey Hunts. More open-world activities launch with 12.0.5 with Void Assaults comprised of Void Strkes and Void Incursions.Another activity is Ritual Sites, a tiered scenario that can be tackled solo or with a party of up to five players.Add the underwater fishing activity called Abyss Anglers and it seems like there will be a lot of options to freshen up your routine midway through Season 1 of Midnight. Class Identity Challenge – 27:45 On Azeroth Morning Radio, Jibbs described his connection to the Paladin class to his own life and that got me thinking about why I identify with my favorite class, Druid of course. Hero’s Call Co-Opted – 36:33 And continuing with AMR-adjacent content, I low-key (as my 9th grade students say) stole the Hero’s Call Board segment from them for a good reason, to highlight someone awesome in the WoW community. “What Have You Done Lately?” – 53:56 Honestly, not enough Warcraft, but both Haranir characters have been created bringing the active roster to 69. My oldest active character, and possibly my first character, is the first Horde character to start an expansion for me, and he ...
