Welcome to The Starting Zone Podcast, The World of Warcraft Podcast for New and Experienced Players! On this episode Spencer Downey and Jason Lucas asked their Patrons "What is your #1 wish list item for 9.1 and beyond?" on the April 2021 Patron Q&A!

Episode #452: April Patron Q&A! is ready for Download!

• Do you think when people get their BiS they will stop playing?
• Would you rather get CE in the first 2 weeks of progression but have to raid everyday, or only wipe 3 times on each boss but get CE on the last possible day?
• What is 'real' wow to you?
• What is the biggest change in 9.1 you are looking forward to and what's another you would like to see put in?
• Do you think WoW would be better with a more frequent yet smaller content cycle? i.e. rather than waiting nine months for Patch 9.1. Instead, after two months, we get the new dungeon, then Torghast changes two months later, then the Maw changes in another two months, and finally the new raid eight months after 9.0.
• What are your thoughts on healer dps as it applies to mythic plus and raids? Do you guys think that all healers should be able to contribute damage or that the outliers like hpal and disc priest need to be brought back in line?
• I'm also intrigued by tier sets coming back, I've never raided when tier sets were a thing so was wandering what your favourite specific tier set bonus was from yesteryear?
