Big news as Josh Mosqueira announces his departure from Blizzard. Is Diablo 3 dead? Also v2.4.2 PTR testing and our class skill ranking continues with a controversial Top 10 Monk skills. Featuring CptGoldfish, HolyKnight, and Flux
2:30 -- Josh Mosqueira's departure and is anyone left on the D3 team? Post-RoS content would have been D3X2. Clearly no more D3 expansions will appear?
17:00 -- Recent play stuff and Flux's surprising actual play time in Season 6.
22:00 -- Diablo unannounced project openings galore on Blizzard's Jobs page.
26:00 -- PTR Patch 2.4.2 testing feedback. Much cheaper Empowered Rifts! Wizard is now broken. T11-T13 actually makes a difference? Season Journey to require much more grinding for Haedrig's Gift.
44:00 -- Stupid cosmetic wings and other options added this season draw mixed reviews.
48:00 -- Monk Top Ten Skills... well, top 7. There are not 10 top Monk skills. Can passive buffs like Mantras ever be *that* cool?
58:00 -- Epiphany. Underpowered compared to WotB and Vengeance, but is it lame or are the others OP?
1:00:30 -- #8 is a... passive skill?
1:05:30 -- Tempest Rush and the mystery of Monks fighting empty-handed.
1:11:00 -- #5 is a primary skill? Does the Monk have the coolest generator skills in the game?
1:18:00 -- Dashing Strike is the most improved Monk skill from release to now. Plus the teleport balance quandary.
1:23:00 -- #2: Exploding Palm = awesome... forever gimped by the graphical downgrade from the initial version of the skill? But still, the domino effect...

1:28:00 -- #1: Cyclone Strike! Awesome solo and teamwork.
1:32:30 -- Seven Sided Strike. Sucks but should be great?
1:35:30 -- Monk defensive/CC skills all boring?
1:38:00 -- The perpetual tragedy of the Monk's terrible passives. Underpowered, generic, and boring. At least no point wasting time trying to find a good Hellfire Amulet?
1:51:00 -- HolyKnight makes a late guest appearance for quick talk of his top 5 Monk skills.
