Sinopse

The WoW or Gold Brainstormz podcast is based on a hardcore mindset that stems from being into multiple competitive hobbies for 2 decades as well having some very interesting experiences through gaming. Since becoming a father of 3 my blocks of time to play have been decreased, but my mentality has hardened. Therefore it's a walk n talk podcast recorded when I have a moment. I discuss WoW and whatever else comes to mind. My main is a Horde Hunter and in Legion PvP is the name of the game.There is no schedule for the show. I release episodes when I have things to talk about, and more importantly, when I get really fed up with things. Discontent is a great motivator.

  • WoG Love Letterz # 4 - Playing My Positions Like Superstars Do

    05/08/2023 Duração: 50min

    The backlog of recordings keeps growing. Life is very busy and I'm prioritizing other things than gaming and podcasting I'm grateful that I was able to help chip in @ Skylander when he wanted a gaming rig a couple of years back. The reason I mention that is because of this; Lil' Grayz will have his laptop coming in next week. That will be a huge day for Lil' Grayz!  I discuss my new position at work (1 month has passed), things I've done and learned. Skills I've learned in the past that help me in the present. I mention the importance of accountability, adaptability, integrity, being respectful, leadership skills, being a teamplayer, listening intently, being sincere, handling complaints and more Honorable mention to Atmosphere in 2023:Atmosphere (the hip hop band) are finally getting closer to being back to their old levels It's been about two decades since I enjoyed their albums a LOT! I'm not there yet but I have been bumping the Bigger Pictures (Youtube link) song nonstop lately! Not had that happen for

  • WoG Brainstormz # 53 - Insights of the Shadow Self

    06/06/2023 Duração: 49min

    My AWC mindset has been taking things too far during Dragonflight. Slowing down A LOT by faffin' about on alts doing whatever instead of tryharding 247 on my Rogues, overdoing it Calming down from doing constant learning pushes with my Rogues. Real life pressure spilling into WoW. A downside of having mindset at a world class level since the early teens. Old habits die hard. Sometimes. Hence, aiming to balance life with all of the constant and huge changes that are happening on all fronts in my life. When to practice for perfection vs when to take it easier. Will use my BM Hunters in Solo Shuffles while playing other toons while waiting because of the extremely long queue times Playing Rogue feels wrong as long as the queues are the way they are. RBG Lead again? Playing on EU very actively again. Missed the teamwork of my home region. A lot. Playing objective Rogues is much more common and appreciated there so just playing in that environment is more relaxing. Playing other classes objectively as a way to l

  • WoG Brainstormz # 51 - New PVP Seasonal Behaviours Before 10.1 Release

    06/05/2023 Duração: 47min

    Notice! This was recorded before 10.1 release My thoughts before doing my very first Solo Shuffle (writing shownotes before uploading. Afternoon 5/5 - 23. I've only done one Shuffler and I LOVED it even more than I ever thought I would haha). Rewatching that gameplay has been godsent). Using the Git Gud Gaming website for learning buffs and debuffs, my need to play consistently if I want quantum leaps to happen. Deciding on getting into the Arena bracket seriously for Season 2. Using my knowledge from Chess when breaking down PVP, especially @ Arena brackets; The opening, the midgame, the endgame.  Also, from a futuristic perspective: The better I will get the harder it will be to see progress. At the very top you train & fight the hardest for the smallest percentages of gains. But the gains you add consistently are the exact reason why you gain an edge vs your competition, if they slack. Especially if you end up in a position where the competition stops being your competition simply because you are domin

    Message from my sponsors: Here it is, bois! Yet another milestone episode! You can pay me over at Patreon, Twitch, Youtube, Kickstarter etc etc etc haha. Let's get that scrilla! Notice! I used that scratchy ass sounding jacket. It’s annoying but there’s no way I’ll rerecord this episode which was hyper-focused. Riplolwuh The very first WoW podcast, "Dictaphone Sessions", that I recorded was recorded back in 2012. What a journey this has been! WoW Life Huge change in mindset this season even when I thought I'd let it be and focus on season 2 instead. RBGs, seeing rating on correct character @ Check PVP, why the feeling of completion is crucial the more I want to compete,how I can gain rating fast if I play, leading RBGs, recording games off-stream, analyse on-stream Deciding on a new Sub build (Avidance main RBG build) where I skip Secret Technique which I love, but that does AoE and use Echoing Reprimand instead for single target, saving energy and building combo points and doing damage instantly after using

    This episode is an unintentional inbetweener between the two different podcast projects and I'm keeping this recording since it's an important part of my process of living more authentically. Especially long-term when I will have learned more in the future and can look back at this period in hindsight I’m trying to focus on topics regarding WoW while things happen on the streets. I tried writing some show notes for this one, but after more than 7 attempts I’m giving up and just letting it go. It’s all a part of the process of my own evolution Y'all take care out there Love, WoW info https://check-pvp.fr/us/Sargeras/Globalled NA toons.

    31/10/2022 Duração: 57min

    This recording is all over the place a'la the classic Brainstormz episodes, but I still manage to dig deep. Just took much longer haha I’m basically clearing my mind after an intense period. The more I keep on talking the more I notice how much this recording helps as a part of my mental regrouping as well as my healing process. I felt as if I was about become sick while recording this as well I prefer female Rogues. The female Night Elf looks the absolute best with the best animations for my tast. Not sure which race I’ll use Horde side. The new models really have lessened my options in regards to races I want to play. What’s up with those creepy eyes?   This is the single most chill return to a pre patch that I’ve ever had. Ever. There’s so much “you can do” that I’m skipping The reasons why I want to main Rogue. Tired of carrying so many sets of gear as a Druid when I min max. As a Rogue all I need is to change weapons and PvP gear. Eventually. Playing on NA gives me a great opportunity to focus a lot mor

  • WoG Brainstormz # 43 - 10.0 Dragonflight Pre Patch - Not playing has been the best way for me to play in Shadowlands

    30/10/2022 Duração: 33min

    This gaming episode was recorded a week after the first Love Letterz episode that I mention during the recording. But at the time I wasn't sure if Love Letterz would be the name of that new project Back to WoW. Resubbed as a way to chill out and get used to the 10.0 pre patch  Casual playstyle. No Hardcore projects planned at all Dragonflight thoughts. Less timesinks for me to avoid. Professions is one of the timesinks though. Choosing region Using free PTR testing to save cash longer + the PTR IS available so why not? Ui, addons, keybindings etc Which faction? Time tells Dragonflight. Relaunch of retail WoW due to a huge loss of players. No, I still don't trust Blizzard  I have a different pre patch behaviour in Shadowlands because of all the Garbage systems Blizzard implemented. The outdoor solo content sucks more than ever  Taking breaks = saving so much irl lifetime + avoiding in game agony/slavery. I didn’t play the Shadowlands Tier Set patch at all. It feels like an absolute win since the Sets got nerf

    The WoG Brainstormz Podcast is Transforming Why should I continue to podcast at all? Where do I go with this project when there are more important topics that I’m passionate about than gaming? Why do people still listen to me, even after I stopped uploading episodes consistently several years ago? Those are a couple of the many topics that I dive into in this first episode of Love Letterz. As I prepare to change the course of this podcast project entirely thanks to my beloved loyal listeners as well my own growth Being myself more and more in day to day life as my experiences become more and more intuitive every year To all of the listeners that have passed away. Thank you so much for your love and support. You are one of the many reasons this podcast is heading down a new path. A path few would dare to choose To those still listening that appreciate hearing about my crazy adventures, thank you! We’re about to turn the heat up a couple of notches and as always I record when I record, but the difference now is

    This return to WoW was not planned, but PvP vendors was the deciding factor like for so many other players. I actually thought I'd return 6-12 months into this xpac. Stream of thoughts. Been a long time since I recorded anything. No interest in the last pathes of BFA, the expansion after, the endgame, the systems, the leveling (too easy and tied to a Campaign on rails), thoughts about PvP, RBG's, leveling alts to avoid burnout, improving and making choices to increase raw skill rather than rating, rerolled to Druid, using even more networking strats and a lot of other stuff. Oyeah ,switched guild as well. Itunes here Stitcher here RSS feed here  http://woworgold.libsyn.com/rss Twitter: @Woworgold, @grayzbdfBlog: www.woworgold.blogspot.com  

  • WoG Brainstormz # 42 - Earthwarden

    13/09/2019 Duração: 14min

    Avoiding timesinks is a habit ever since Earthwarden (Druid Tank Mace from BC) got replaced early Wrath, alts played depend on how one-sided Blizzard's thinking is with a system. Had my best gold making run ever with Enchanting before 8.2. Changed playstyle entirely to multiclassing by myself instead of doing serious PvP. Stacking classes I enjoy. Blizzard repeat mistakes with stats every expansion. I will force myself to stick to fewer alts before flying. Devotion, my main's guild, has finally gotten their shit together and progress much further than the old iteration of the guild. 5/8 HC @ patch 8.2 raid.    Notice. I'm doing dishes the first 5 while recording. At 4:08 I drop some noisy shit.

  • WoG Brainstormz # 41 - Classic Realms and Playstyles

    12/09/2019 Duração: 14min

    My friend, Krieeg, wanted to go all in on Classic as a ganking Rogue. Me, on the other hand, wanted to get my main names and dabble in Classic 6-18 months after launch. No hype train, no queues, no obligations, just play it at my own pace. Make my coppers and silvers and just enjoy the ride of old WoW slowly. Well, those plans went to shit, so here we are. The entire world is upside down. The best part about Classic is that I can play them entirely differently. So I'm playing retail as an action arcade version of WoW where I can blast through things alone. Side notes: Good luck understanding this episode. It's oldschool Grayz in many ways. Also, the audio skips at times. This is an issue with my beloved s7 and I'll keep on recording on it. But if the skips hurt a very important topic in the future, I might have to use on another phone. Time tells.

  • WoG Brainstormz # 40 - Classic Leveling (Part 1)

    The different leveling options I have. How I've chosen to level the first time around and why. Triple team multibox leveling. If you can't stand background noise be safe and stop around 3.40. The 2nd recording was recorded inside a bus filled with kids. I will probably revisit this topic when I have other ideas about leveling

  • WoG Brainstorms # 39 - Future Reputation Strategies

    10/09/2019 Duração: 08min

    Plans for the future. Cap reputations on main Hunter. Reach enough rep for professions on my Tier 1 alts; Mage and Warlock. Slowly repeat the process with my Tier 1.5 main Priest. Main Druid can slack entirely since Hunter now has modern day Inscription capped and is keeping it. While Druid has all of the old stuff, which is harder to get after the profession leveling changes. At least on low pop realms.   The rest of my alts won't touch reps at all  except for unlocking whatever the f*** Blizzard forces us to unlock in future expansions.   Side topic not as fleshed out: Dropped Herbalism on alts and switched to Enchanting in most cases. Stationary characters can disenchant anything, but they can't herb. Also I chose Skinning on a select few alts and my newly created Druids are all 2x gatherers with Herbalism + Mining. 2nd set of Druids were being leveled in Jade Forest as of this recording.
