I'm pretty sure we don't have a set timeline for the events surrounding Cinders attainment of the Fall Maiden's powers, but I believe that during the Episode 1 fight Cinder did not use glass because it is linked to those powers. In the flashback episode Cinder is seen to carry around a bow and arrows, which are a of a lighter colour, possibly due to the fact that she was not yet able to materialise her weapon from her surroundings, and therefore are not made from obsidian. That being said, we have been told that the characters will have weapon upgrades in the future so Cinder may well have improved certain skills and abilities in order to do so.
