Just wanted to make a post about how incredibly excited I am to reach 500 subscribers on YouTube! Thank each and every one of you for all of the positive comments and interactions I’ve had so far.

I’m so, so happy to be going into this year with a plan of what I want to accomplish. My goal is to continue making as good of videos as I possibly can to help you guys get where YOU want to be and I’ll do whatever I can to help you in that journey!

I won’t lie to you though, my favorite part about this journey so far has been live-streaming. Time really does fly by when you’re having fun so I can’t wait to be doing a LOT more of that over the course of the year!

My last stream I set a new record for the channel with 42 people watching at the peak during the stream. I feel like I’ll continue to get better over time and I just can’t wait to see all of the adventures we’ll have.

NEVER FORGET TO REPAIR YOUR GEAR.

Hello everyone! I hope you guys all have had a wonderful Holiday season. The past few weeks have been insane for me, almost all in good ways.

I posted my first video a couple weeks ago now and my channel has grown significantly within that time frame. I’ve received so many comments and messages that have been amazingly positive and I cannot thank each and every one of you enough. It has brought a lot of joy and satisfaction to my life!

In 2024, I am going to continue to release as many informative WoW videos as I possibly can manage. My content will be mainly focused on restoration Druid, as it is my favorite class and spec! Eventually I may branch out to different classes, but I don’t imagine that the main topic of my channel will change.

I really enjoy making long-form videos as that is the type of content that I myself find the most appealing. However, as my editing skills and time allow, I may try my hand at making some shorter videos, but my personal goal is to make sure that every viewer leaves feeling like they were able to take at least one important thing away from it. The way I accomplish this is allowing some parts of my videos to get into depths that many others to do delve into due to time constraints. I’m not afraid of making long videos and so if you enjoy that type of thing, I hope that you’ll like what is coming in the future!

I’m nearing 500 Subscribers, and I’ve already massively demolished the required watch hours to have monetization enabled for my channel. That would be an incredibly exciting day for me personally, as allowing me to earn some type of income from my videos would allow me to spend more time making them! I’m sure we’d talk about that more in the future if/when that becomes a thing. The one thing I want you to remember in regards to this is you can always enjoy my stuff that I make for free. Seeing and hearing about your successes is really what drives me to keep going.

This afternoon I also hit record of 32 concurrent viewers on my livestream. That blew my mind! I’ve had an absolute blast streaming and talking with chat. Thank you for everyone who has popped in and asked some questions or just wanted to come hang out for awhile.

I can’t wait to see what we can do in 2024.

ATTENTION RESTO DRUIDS (and other interested parties): I'll be working on a VOD review of a viewer-submitted key tonight. We'll be watching the video, offering some in-depth thoughts about the key, highlighting important moments and really breaking down both the good AND bad that happens.

The viewer wrote a message with the post, "Merry Christmas all 🙂 Have +18 WM that I ran that I would like some advice on, I feel like I made a few mistakes that led to some unnecessary deaths. It's my 3rd week playing Rdudu and I'm still feeling out the spec.

We did time it but I would like to be pushing 3k this season and don't feel that this current performance would let me get there. Do with this video what you like and keep up the great guides."

This will be the first viewer key review on my channel, so I would like to give a huge thank you to Bman for being willing and able to put yourself out there. I promise that I'll do my best to give you thoughts, tips, and a growth plan that will help you get 3k this season.

I cannot wait to do this as I'm hoping it will give some great insights into how to think and approach situations in M+ that are highly specific to your own gameplay. I've been working hard to provide the types of guides for new players that I wish I had when I began playing the spec that would have fast-tracked my ability to reach 3k+ IO.

_________

The inspiration for my videos came from one of my good friends asking me "Hey, I seem to be kinda struggling to get past a certain key level and I find myself running out of mana and when I've run with you, you don't seem to have that issue as much. Do you have any advice?" In which my response was, "Let's find a group for you to run a key and I want to watch you play so I'll know how to help you."

So, I can't wait to see what we can learn tonight.

I need your help deciding something about my Weakauras and UI guide!

CHANNEL UPDATE: Currently working on a video that covers building a healing UI, with a lot of examples from my own! However, it is focused on giving YOU the tools to build a UI that gives you the information that you need, not blankly copying someone else. This has two major benefits:

1. You know how to adjust the UI yourself which allows you to make quick, on-the-fly adjustments if something goes wrong.

2. When you add a new element, you'll have a really good idea about how to place these things on your screen to elevate your gameplay instead of distracting you!

I'm going deep in the bag for this one, so here's a sneak peek of what you'll get to look forward to!

I’ve been super, super happy to see all of the positive responses to both Part 1 and Part 2 of my restoration Druid guide!

There are plenty of other videos I have planned and started to get footage for! Here are my planned upcoming videos:

1. Cenarion Ward (was supposed to be included in part 2, I accidentally deleted it during editing and didn’t notice) - this will be a short one. Thanks Mike for pointing this out!!

2. 10.2 Restoration Druid Beginners Guide | Ep.3 Time to BLAST | An Introduction to rDruid

3. M+ Pug Life | I Got Kicked Because I Was a Woman | Top 1% Gamer MK

4. The Healing Mindset | Failure - Flame - Fear | How to Analyze Mistakes and Learn From Them

5. Restoration Druid Weakauras and UI | General Advice to Maximize Attention On What Matters Most.

Projects 2-5 are not set in any particular order YET, but this is at least a general view of what I have planned at the moment! I'm also considering doing M+ key reviews of my own gameplay so I can offer some in-depth thoughts about what I am paying attention to during certain parts of a key that has already been completed to offer better commentary than what is possible live.

Hello everyone! I went ahead and made a discord for my channel youtube channel so that people that are interested in my videos can have a better platform to ask me questions, see some "sneak peaks" from upcoming projects of mine, give me feedback and even suggest things that could become future videos!

If any of that interests you, the link is below! Keep in mind that I just created this discord, so there isn't much there yet, but I'm hoping to grow it over time along with the channel!
