With the recent release of Druid and Monk to the retail game, there are now just two classes stuck behind beta access – Bard and Necromancer. Both also recently received non-Human ancestries for Legend backers, meaning every class and ancestry combination is now available to those players in beta.
Given all of these releases, the SS Sparks & Rec crew has some exploring to do! After intros and WWYD, Filtrophobe leads a discussion of what we know so far about the level 20 Bard and Necro builds. Following this, Tuff takes us into new territory with the debut of “Tuff’s Table Talk,” where he digs into some Hero Helper data. The usual community round-up, taps, scraps, and good-byes guide us back to port. Thanks for listening!

Hey everybody, DblDubz here. I love the Realms Rising community and have an absolute blast playing in the community organized events. Even if it's just a little bragging rights, playing with something on the line against people you know, just makes it that much more exciting to me! That's part of why talking strategy and working together to optimize our play is something I love doing.
A few other facts about me -- I come from a competitive Magic: the Gathering background and have played fewer than 50 games of Star Realms! I'm also married and have a one and a half year old son, both of whom I love spending time with.
Chat me up on the Discord server or send me a challenge in game any time!
