Looking back on Battle for Azeroth – Azerite, Essences & Gear
With BfA coming to end, I’m having a look at what worked and what didn’t (for me!) when it came to gearing up.

The goal for 2019
It is New Year’s Eve. 2019 is on the other side of this day, and as is customary, people are making resolutions in the hopes of making the most of the year to come. I am one of those people. 2018 was a pretty ok year for me. It was tough, but I won’t complain.…

A new Cinder
I’ve been working hard since my last post to set everything up for me to get a bit braver and be more serious about my streaming. Like I mentioned in that post, I’m going to start streaming some non-WoW content. Because of this, I’ve made the decision to move away from having my pandaren shaman…

The anxiety and the guild crash… and what’s next
It’s been hard to start this post. Or any other blog post for that matter, if I’m being completely honest. But this one, I don’t really know how to start. I know the things I have to say, but putting them in order is proving difficult. So how about we make a deal and pretend…

A peek at Cinder’s world
Well hi there, friends. Today I wanted to take on a little peak behind the curtain, and show you where I am when I’m writing/streaming/talking to you all. It’s take awhile… in fact, it’s take the whole time we’ve lived in this apartment, so about 4 years? But finally – FINALLY I have all my…

Z and Cinder’s blog challenge topic 15: I love it all!!
It’s funny, I’ve put off writing this post for awhile. Not because I don’t have anything to love about WoW, but because there is so much to love and I’m finding it difficult to pin down only a few things to talk about.

It was the best of times, it was the busiest of times!
Getting back to work has been really great – knowing I’ve got money coming in again to pay bills is a big load off my mind! But it does come with the downside of a lot less game time.

My harasser
I’ve ummed and ahhed about writing this post for quite some time now for a number of reasons. But last night something changed, and I stopped being angered and upset by the situation and instead felt an immense amount of pity and, well… schadenfreude.

Blog challenge – 12 years and the impact
This week started the 12th birthday celebrations for World of Warcraft. It’s crazy that a game this old is still this popular, although I understand it. The topic we chose for the challenge this week is an opportunity to take a step back and look at how this game has impacted our lives. Because let’s…

On saying goodbye
It seems to be that barely a few weeks go by before we are saying “farewell” to another Blizzard employee. And it’s always followed shortly after with the chorus of “Blizzard is collapsing” or “this is the end of WoW – even the devs know it, that’s why they’re jumping ship” conspiracies. What people tend…

A little help from my friends…
Hi everyone! A couple of weeks back I mentioned that I was going to be a guest on some podcasts coming up. The first of these was Realm Maintenance (Episode 192!) which was amazing and loads of fun. I’ll be on Girls Gone WoW again in a couple of weeks (which I am really looking…

dead headset
Well, my headset died over the weekend. I’m not happy. I’ve only had it for a year, and it wasn’t the cheapest thing in the world (though not the most expensive either – just enough that they made a dent in the bank account at the time). What broke in the end was the wire that…

Mr & Mrs WoW Community Project
The lovely folks over at Mr & Mrs WoW have a brilliant project going on at the moment to get some positivity back in to the WoW community. They have asked: What I propose is that we all list the top 3 things in Warcraft that we LOVE. The things that make us play the game. The events, places, achievements,…

Hearthstone on iPad!!
I’m so excited! Hearthstone is out on iPad! Can I please go home now so I can play? Here’s the info on the Hearthstone website (which is also where I grabbed the above pic from). For those of you who can’t find the app on the iTunes store, here’s a link for you: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/hearthstone-heroes-warcraft/id625257520?mt=8 So far…

Girls talking about WoW
I have a bit of a gripe. Ok, a whinge, a whine, whatever. For those who follow me and may not know, I’m a girl. A girl who plays World of Warcraft. A LOT. I raid in two teams, one of which I am raid leader of (the one I post about on here most).…
