RL PvP with bears: ur doin it wrong
May 28th
Forgive me, I’m on a bit of a bear kick at the moment, having just got my bear form on Kiiva, and having fun with it (the header *does* say “predominantly” resto-flavoured, after all). By the way – it turns out that if you’ve done that bear form quest 6 or 7 times, you end
Night Elf bear forms
May 28th
Night Elf bear forms have been released. I actually REALLY like the white bear in this series, so I feel better about being “stuck” with a bear that matches my hair colour. I still think linking directly to hair and skin colour is a little inflexible for people who are very particular about those elements
My thoughts on new forms announced
May 27th
I’m late for work but here’s my two cents on the new druid forms changes:Why are they directly linked to our caster form appearance?What if I want Keeva to have white skin but I want a black bear?What if I want Kiiva to have blue hair but I don’t want a blue bear? Am I
The same, but different

Meet Kiiva. Kiiva is (as of tonight) a level 10 Night Elf druid. I didn’t quite manage to get bear form before the server went down, but that can be tomorrow’s project.A lot of people will probably think I’m nuts, but I thought it might be fun to reroll. Again. This makes druid number.. 5.
Jousting – help for beginners
May 24th
I used to hate the jousting quests that are part of the Argent Tournament. For a while, I skipped them.. but it bugged me that they gave me so much trouble. I was irritated that a daily quest would take so long to do and often I would fail and have to start over.. yuck.
Cold turkey: Day.. what are we up to?

It’s really very weird, suddenly not raiding, after doing it for so long. I don’t know whether I feel happy, or sad. Both, I think. Sad because I feel a little robbed, after working so hard… and because I’ve lost a big chunk of what I’ve been doing for the past couple of years. Happy

I was saving this post for when we killed Yogg, but that isn’t going to happen now, so here they all are. Maybe I’ll get a 10 man Yogg instead sometime. NB: I don’t have shots of the first couple of bosses because I was stuck at work.Oops, apparently my Vezax picture isn’t up. I’ll
Break from hardcore raiding
May 11th
This morning I made the announcement that we would be transitioning from a hardcore 25man guild to a casual 10man guild.It stings. I play this game to raid; I will always be a raid healer, it’s what I love. But it got to the point where I was spending every spare moment doing my Taz
I’m not dead, I feel happy

I’ve been neglecting you guys really badly. Probably not as badly as my Children’s Week orphans – I really need to stop flying off cliffs and forgetting there’s a small child following me…I still don’t really have time to write anything substantial. Working two jobs, plus some illness lately, plus a lot going on in
Inexorable is recruiting!
May 1st
Hey guys, normally I don’t cross-post non-druidy stuff in this blog, but I know there are some other Oceanic readers here, and I wanted to spread the word.My guild is currently recruiting. We are leading progression on our server (Caelestrasz – Oceanic PvE), and we making a final push to get Yogg-Saron down (he should



My name is Emma and I live in Australia. I’ve been gaming on and off since I was about 11. I won’t tell you exactly how long ago that was, let’s just say long enough.
