Bronchitis is a B- Oh hey, Games!
Urggghgghghggghhhhh. And other such drawn-out noises. I’ve been a bit sick of late. Nothing critical or serious — just Bronchitis. But it has drawn on long enough that I’m just really done with it. It’s hard to complain too...

Cracking a Million Gold
Albeit only in WoW, unfortunately. But look, they threw me a party! A million gold is a pretty big milestone for me. I’ve not really ‘played’ the Auction House with any degree of consistency or seriousness since all the way back...

Time to Loot Journal: December 2020
While undoubtedly we all know on an intellectual level that no arbitrary switch in date will bring with it immediate change for the better, there still seems to be a feeling of symbolic importance to the changing of the year. The ability to put the...

WoW Shadowlands: Changing Your Covenant
What’s involved? What exactly do you lose, when you decide to change your Covenant? Is it difficult to ‘recover’ from the switch? Some of these questions are well answered by other guides. Both the likes of Wowhead and Icy Veins...

Merry Christmas!
A smarter, more prepared person would’ve put some time and thought into this post before… you know… Today. But nonetheless, Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays, as you prefer for your circumstances. :) Whatever your plans for...

Considering a Covenant Switch
And a specialisation switch actually. So far I’ve been pretty happy with pushing forward my Mage focused exclusively as Frost. It has a relatively simple yet still satisfying set of skill priorities and procs in order to play optimally....

A Few Weeks with Shadowlands
We’ve had a few weeks with Shadowlands now and against my initial expectations I’m still fairly well engrossed. I’ve broken with tradition of Healer or Tank and taken on a DPS class (Frost Mage) as my main for the expansion. And...

Time to Loot Journal: November 2020 (Five Game Challenge Day 30)
The stitches came out of my thumb earlier this evening. Just down to a more moderate looking wrap on it now too, so things are on the up and up I reckon- looking less like a mummy each day. Then tomorrow — fingers crossed; as this is by no...

Five Game Challenge Day 24: Shadowlands Lands
Shadowlands is here. And as much as my thumb and work have allowed, I’ve jumped in to check it out this evening. What seems like an age ago now (but was really just the 6th of this month) I was pondering whether Shadowlands was over for me...

Five Game Challenge Day 6 – Shadowlands over for Me Before It Begins?
When it comes to WoW expansions, I have a fairly tried and true process now. It dates back a long way, all the way back to Mists of Pandaria in fact. The process runs something like this: Expansion Announced: But I don’t much care, because...

Five Game Challenge 2020 – Day 2: Tough Road Ahead
Sticking to the five games for November is going to be tough this year. Tougher than last year, by a long shot, I reckon. It was the very last day of October that I discovered the actual cause for my new PC build’s instability and resolved...

Five Game Challenge – 2020
Last year, I put myself through a bit of a challenge. A Five Game Challenge. You might’ve already gathered that though from the title, even if you weren’t here at the time. Though if you weren’t, possibly the finer points of...

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands Delayed
I’m trying to work out whether I’m actually surprised or not. On balance, I think I still am. I read through Kaylriene’s thoughts on announcing changes to the Covenant system with a mere 30-days to go a few days ago and I expected...

Feeling the Fear and Tanking Anyway
In a case of good news / bad news — I can’t really blame my tanking performance on gear any more. Not so much at least. I’ve been incredibly fortunate. I have never been this lucky in gearing a tank before in the entire history...
