I came, I saw, I explored!

I am an Explorer! Finally. Ok, it’s taken a while but now Erinys has another new and shiny title which she won’t use. I have a bit of an allergy to titles. The whole concept seems a little odd to me, plus they make it harder to hide behind stuff in PvP. Then there is [...]

Midsummer Screenshot Madness

Today’s screenshots are all influenced in some way by the Midsummer Fire Festival. Midsummer is one of my favourite festivals, combining as it does faster levelling for alts and a reason to visit far flung locations. Running around picking up flames on all my characters has given me lots of chances to visit old familiar places, taking [...]

Why “Smiling Jim” brings a tear to my eye

I seem to be drawn to the sadder quests in-game. Just as I can guarantee finding a matinee movie to cry to (regardless of when I turn the tv on), I have a knack for finding quests involving murdered families and broken hearts. One of these quest chains that every single one of my Alliance characters has [...]

Hearts and Flowers

If this is the new Horde, can we have the old one back please. Someone  needs to tell the Orcs that big flower filled garlands really don’t go with extra large metal spikes. They send mixed messages really and that’s never a good look. Heads, hearts and other gooey bits look fine skewered on your [...]

Go straight to Alterac Valley

I’m back. I logged today for the first time in almost 5 weeks. What did I do… I went straight to AV (yes I worry about my sanity sometimes too). Well I had to find out whether or not anything had changed in my short absence from the game. So off to Stonehearth bunker we [...]

Cataclysm? That’s just another word for Disaster right

I have to admit, I’m worried already. Not about the “lol smite” direction of the Priest class or by the removal of the Path of the Titans but by the way raiding seems to be going. I didn’t like the idea of only being able to run an instance on 10 man or 25 man [...]

The Calm before the Storm

Fear the attack of four headed Pre-expansion Slumpiness Monster, it has tentacles and lots of pointy teeth. Yes, this is last week’s Blog Azeroth shared topic which I failed to post in time (also my anti virus has broken my linking temporarily). Summer with football, work and sunshine is getting in the way of my WoW [...]

Cataclysm – New Druid Talent Trees

So Blizzard released another draft of their proposed talent trees. I’m not going to go into details, the information can be found here if you are interested. I just want to jump around with joy. I realise it may not go live like this but you can’t blame a girl for being excited and hoping. [...]

The Devil is in the Details

The level of detail across the game is amazing and full of surprises. Every time I think I’ve seen everything, I keep finding little gems hidden in corners. Take for example Tinky Wickwhistle. She’s a typical gnome, curious and fond of blowing stuff up. When you first encounter her (as Alliance) those traits have got [...]

“Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels”

The theme this week of Blog  Azeroth is “a few of our favourite things”, suggested by Ardol. Given that it involves lists, I couldn’t resist taking part. However to avoid a four thousand word essay on why I prefer that poet over that one, or why these are my favourite movies I’m going to keep [...]
