Saturday 1/31/09

I got on Wranngar for awhile tonight and did a couple daily's. I did the Dalaran cooking which was Cheese for Glowergold. I don't really like this one because you have to find 6 half full wine glasses around Dalaran and it always seems like there is a lot of people doing it. Takes awhile to get 6 of them. Then you have to go over to the cheese shop and wait for the cheese to spawn. When I had that done I handed it in and got my Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag, which had 4 Northern Spices in it, and the 9g93s this quest pays. After that I went to see what Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, had for me. He had Bait Bandits so I flew over to my spot at the waterfall by Tuurem (52,37) in Terokkar Forest and got my Blackfin Darter on the 21st cast. Took awhile today. I handed that in and got my Bag of Fishing Treasures which had 6g55s66c, 4 Sharpened Fish Hooks and a Noble's Monocle in it. I got 11 gold for the Noble's Monocle. I finally found where to catch Deep Sea Monsterbelly when I was fishing for Moonglow Cuttlefish. There where schools everywhere and by the time you got done fishing one another one would show up. I was using my fish tracking skills which helped out a lot. I was getting schools of both the Moonglow Cuttlefish and Deep Sea Monsterbelly but mostly the Deep Sea Monsterbelly. I ended up getting 63 Deep Sea Monsterbelly and 22 Moonglow Cuttlefish. Didn't take me that long either as I was fishing schools. The loaction is off the shore from Unu'pe (Borean Tundra) at 32,66 among the icebergs. I was able to cook 2 recipes I had with those and got the 2nd part of the Northrend Gourmet done. Now I just have to cook 15 more recipes and I will get my chef title. First I have to get 15 more recipes lol. I did one Eye of the Storm after that which we won. It was a really close battle with each side holding 2 towers pretty much thoughout although they were not always the same 2 towers. We won by less than 200 points. I should be able to get on early tomorrow and want to do a bunch of dailys, I want to start making some gold again.

Warcraft Blog 1/30/09

I got the Dalaran daily cooking done on Wranngar which was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. I headed down into the sewers for some Infused Mushroom's also know as sewer mushrooms, and spent a little time getting the 4 I needed. There had to have been no less that 20 people down there picking mushrooms. It took a little bit but I got the 4 I needed and headed to the guild bank to get 2 Chilled Meat to cook up with them. Once I had my Infused Mushroom Meatloaf I delivered it and got my 9g93s, Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag. My Small Spice Bag had 4 Northern Spices and 5 Baby Spice, not a bad haul.I went and talked to The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, but I didn't like what he had to offer so I skipped the Outlands cooking but did the daily fishing quest for Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest. It was Bait Bandits. I headed over to my spot at the waterfall near Tuurem (52,37) and got my Blackfin Darter on the 12th cast. I turned that in for my Bag of Fishing Treasures and got 7g15s65c, 5 Sharpened Fish Hooks and a Piece of Polished Driftwood. I cooked up the extra fish I caught and put them in the guild bank for anyone who wants them.

Warcraft Blog 1/29/09

I did the daily cooking in Dalaran on Wranngar tonight, it was Convention at the Legerdemain. I grabbed 4 Northern Stew out of the guild bank and headed over to the wine shop for a jug of wine. Once I had that I handed it in and got my 9g93s, Dalaran Cooking Award and 4 Northern Spices. I have about 3/4 of a stack of Northern Spices in the bank now. I headed over to see what The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, had for me and he had Revenge is Tasty. From there I headed over to Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, and picked up Shrimpin' Ain't Easy. I was happy to get that one because I hadn't seen it since the expansion and I needed it for an Achievement. I flew over to my spot at Umbrafen Lake (78,74) in Zangarmarsh and got the 10 Giant Freshwater Shrimp I needed pretty quick and handed in. My Bag of Fishing Treasures had 6g49s91c, 6 Sharpened Fish Hooks and a Broken Spyglass. Not the best haul I have gotten from this daily. I headed over to Skettis after that and got my wing on the first kill. I took that and 3 Warp Burgers and made Kaliri Stew which I handed in to The Rokk. I picked Barrel of Fish and on top of the 75s I got for this quest I got 6 Furious Crawdad, 4 Spotted Feltail, 2 Huge Spotted Feltail and 2 Clean Fishbones. Not the best haul there either. I don't know why I continue to do this quest, there are really no rewards left for me and it only pay's 75 silver but I guess the meat comes in handy and they are quick and easy. I still have some good rewards to get from the daily fishing. Afterwards I wandered around a little and called it a night.

Wranngar 1/28/09 - Round II

I got back on Wranngar for a little while tonight. I did three more battlegrounds, Eye of the Storm, one win and two losses. The one that we won I got in about three seconds before it ended. I didn't get a mark of honor but I did get 248 honor. The other two were pretty bad, we held one tower in each and we had a tough time doing that. I looked into a couple top end enchants for my new Mace. One I like will run me about 1300 gold and the other will cost me about 350 gold. Not too hard a decision :). I will start gathering the mats tomorrow.

Wranngar 1/28/09

I played Wranngar for awhile today and got the daily cooking in Dalaran done. It was Mustard Dogs!. It went pretty quick and easy. I picked the Wild Mustard around Dalaran and found the 4 I needed really quick. After that I cooked it up with some Rhino Dogs to get my Mustard Dog Basket!. Once I had that I delivered it and got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag. My Small Spice Bag had 3 Northern Spices and a Dalaran Cooking Award in it so that wasn't a bad haul. I used 3 Dalaran Cooking Award's to get Recipe: Very Burnt Worg. I still need to cook one to get it added to my Achievement list. I did a few battlegrounds, Alterac Valley was the daily and I fought in one. I got in towards the end when we had nothing and the Horde had everything. It was over pretty quick. I decided not to waste my time on that and did 3 Eye of the Storm, 2 wins and a loss. I also got Titansteel Destroyer today from the auction house. I paid 2,000 gold for it and it is worth every cent. I need to find someone to put Agility on it now.

Wranngar 1/27/09

I played Wranngar for a while tonight and got the daily cooking done in Dalaran. It was Convention at the Legerdemain again. I grabbed 4 Chilled Meat from the guild bank and cooked it up then ran over to the wine shop and grabbed a jug of wine. Once I had all that I delivered it and collected my 9g93s, Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag. My Small Spice Bag had 4 Northern Spices in it. Not too bad. After that I did the daily cooking from The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, which was Revenge is Tasty. I got my wing on the 3rd kill and cooked it up with 3 Warp Burgers. I turned that in and got 75s, 11 Figluster's Mudfish and a Silver Hook. From there I went over to Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, and got the daily fishing quest which was The One That Got Away. I got my World's Largest Mudfish on the 18th cast but I got a bunch of other good fish in the process too. I turned that in and got 7g31s75c, 4 Sharpened Fish Hooks and a Piece of Polished Driftwood. After that I went to Ironforge and made 8 pieces of leather armor for someone using their mats. I didn't have the pattern but they did and they gave it to me for making the armor. I told them I would give them a few gold for it but they said making the armor was enough. It was a level 26 item but a pattern I didn't have.

Wranngar 1/26/09 - II

I got back on Wranngar tonight and did some battlegrounds. I did 2 Strand of the Ancients, both losses, and 3 more Eye of the Storm, 2 wins and 1 loss. The group in Strand of the Ancients was pretty bad in both battles, we got slaughtered. In the Eye of the Storm we had a good group for 2 of the battles and then a pretty poor one for the third battle which we lost. In the first 2 battles we ended up with 4 towers at the end of the battle. In the 3rd battle we started out with 3 towers and ended up with 1. We had 2 people defending that tower, 10 people trying for the flag, 2 people fighting on the road and one AFK. All in all a pretty bad group. On the plus side I got a Black Battlestrider tonight with some of the marks of honor I have. I really like it. It looks way too small for me, like a compact mount :).

Wranngar 1/26/09

I played Wranngar for awhile and did the daily battleground which was Eye of the Storm. We won the first one I was in pretty easily, we had 4 towers at the end. When the daily's rolled over I did the daily cooking in Dalaran which was Convention at the Legerdemain. I grabbed 4 Chilled Meat out of the guild bank and cooked them up then I headed over to the wine and cheese shop and grabbed a jug of wine. I turned that in and got my 9g93s, Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag. My Small Spice Bag had 3 Northern Spices, 3 Old Spices and 3 Baby Spice. Not a bad haul. The important thing is I got the Dalaran Cooking Award I needed to get Recipe: Fish Feast. I had gotten 10 Northern Spices off the auction house for 33 gold earlier so I had about 18 northern spices all together. I cooked up 10 Fish Feast which I will use in the battlegrounds when I come back on later. I did the daily cooking from The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, which was Revenge is Tasty and the daily fishing from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, which was Crocolisks in the City. I got the usual rewards from those, nothing special. I also did the Achievement Critter Gitter. I did that on some Penguins in North Rend. It was quick and easy and I got it out of the way. Don't let the Maul in my hand fool you, no Penguins were injured in the completing of this Achievement. All I have left for my Chef title is to cook 2 more recipes to get though stage 2 of North Rend Gourmet, then 15 more to complete stage 3. I picked up 3 20 slot Frostweave Bags at the auction house for 93 gold each for a total of 279 gold. That is about 155 gold less for 3 than the 425 gold one 20 slot Primal Mooncloth Bag was going for when they first came out. I sent them to Wrangar to replace his 16 slot bags.

Wranngar 1/25/09

I played Wranngar for quite a while today and got his cooking to 450 and in the process got his fishing to 450. Now I just have to level my leatherworking to 450 which is at 433 right now. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran which was Sewer Stew. That had me heading to Crystalsong Forest for 4 Crystalsong Carrots which I cooked up with 4 Chilled Meat to make my stew. I delivered that to the innkeeper where I call home and collected the 9g93s, Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag this quest pays. My Small Spice Bag had 5 Northern Spices in it today which was good, I needed them and ended up spending a Dalaran Cooking Award on 10 more Northern Spices by the time I got my cooking to 450. I had 5 Dalaran Cooking Award's and would have gotten Recipe: Fish Feast if I didn't have to spend that one. I will get it tomorrow though. I went out today and got all the mats I will need to make 10 Fish Feast when I get it. All I need is the recipe and Northern Spices. I think I have 3 in the bank so I will probably not have enough of those to make 10 unless I get an extra Dalaran Cooking Award in my Small Spice Bag. I should have enough after the daily tomorrow to make at least 5 though. I did the daily cooking from The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, which was Soup for the Soul and the daily fishing from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, which was Bait Bandits. I got the usual rewards from those. I fought in two Eye of the Storm battles today, one win and one loss. I will probably be back on later to do a few more battlegrounds.

Wranngar 1/24/09

I got on Wranngar for a little while tonight and got the daily cooking done, which was Convention at the Legerdemain for a change. I grabbed 4 Chilled Meat from the guild bank and cooked up the 4 Northern Stew I needed then went to the wine and cheese shop and got a jug of wine then turned it in at the Legerdemain. I got my Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag which contained 3 Northern Spices and 3 Old Spices. I am slowly building up my stock of Northern Spices and now have one stack of 20. According to the auction house prices that is worth 100 gold. The daily battleground was Alterac Valley so I skipped it. There were no battles going on which meant if I joined there would be a long queue and then we would be outnumbered 4 to 1 when that battle started. Instead I did one Eye of the Storm which we lost. We just couldn't seem to get it together and only had one tower the whole time, a couple towers for a little while and never had 3 towers. The Horde were also running the flag. It seemed to go on forever though, maybe just because I am tired. I might get back on in a little while and do some more battlegrounds.

Wranngar 1/23/09

I played Wranngar some tonight. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran which was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf AGAIN!!! Go Blizz..... Anyway I headed back into the sewers to get some Sewer Mushrooms (Infused Mushrooms) and, once I had them, I cooked them up with a couple Chilled Meat and that gave me my Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. I delivered that and got my Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag. My Small Spice Bag had 3 Northern Spices in it. After that I took the portal to Shattrath and got the daily fishing quest from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, which was The One That Got Away. I headed out to Nagrand and got the World's Largest Mudfish on my 11th cast. I turned that in and got nothing worth mentioning. Then I noticed that the Lunar Festival had started. I checked that out for a little while then flew back to Darkshore and took the boat to Stormwind. A couple Horde rode the boat with me, one flagged. I followed the flagged one when he got off the boat and when he went into the park me and a Mage killed him. I felt a little bad afterwards because he was just trying to do one of the Lunar Festival quests. After that I headed back to Dalaran and called it a night.

Wranngar 1/22/09

I only had time to get on and do the Dalaran daily cooking quest tonight. It was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf AGAIN! I did it on Wranngar. I headed down into the sewers for some sewer mushrooms. I got the 4 I needed pretty quick but there seemed to be a lot of people doing it today. I cooked that with 2 pieces of chilled meat to make my Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. I delivered that and got my Dalaran Cooking Award and Small Spice Bag. My Small Spice Bag contained 3 Northern Spices so it was a slightly better reward than yesterday. I might have a little time to get back on later tonight.

Wranngar 1/21/09

I played Wranngar for awhile tonight. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran which was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf again. I headed down into the sewers to pick some mushrooms and got the 4 I needed pretty quick. Once I had them I cooked them up with a couple Chilled Meat and delivered them. I got the Dalaran Cooking Award the quest gives daily but my Small Spice Bag only had 2 Northern Spices in it. Another disappointing daily cooking :(. From there I headed over to see The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, to see what the daily cooking was there. It was Manalicious. That one is not worth the effort when you already have all the recipes so I skipped it. From there I headed over to Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, to see what he had for me. He gave me Bait Bandits which is a quick easy one. I flew to my spot by Tuurem (52,37) in Terokkar Forest and got my Blackfin Darter on the 9th cast. Yes, that's right, the 9th cast. Evidently they fixed this daily in the last patch so you don't get your quest fish on the first cast anymore. Well it was good while it lasted. After that I got the daily battleground which was Strand of the Ancients. We won the first one I was in so I turned that one in. That was about all I did tonight, I got on late and didn't have much time. Hopefully I will get on earlier tomorrow and have more time.

Wranngar 1/20/09

I only had time to do the Dalaran daily cooking on Wranngar tonight. It was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf and only took me a few minutes, I found all my mushrooms quickly today. Once I had the 4 mushrooms I needed I headed to the bank to grab a couple pieces of Chilled Meat to cook it with. I cooked it up and delivered it. My Small Spice Bag had 5 Northern Spices in it, a much better reward than yesterday. With the Dalaran Cooking Award I received today I had 3 so I got Recipe: Small Feast with them and learned that. That was about all I had time for tonight. I loaded the new patch but that didn't take long.

Wranngar 1/19/09

I played Wranngar some today and ended up doing 15 daily quests, one of which was the daily cooking in Dalaran. The daily cooking today was Sewer Stew and had me heading to Crystalsong Forest to pick some Crystalsong Carrots so I could cook it up with some Chilled Meat. Once I had 4 of them I headed back to Dalaran and cooked it up. Then I headed down into the sewers and delivered it to the innkeeper at the inn where I stay. All I got in my Small Spice Bag was 2 Northern Spices, another disappointing day. I also did the daily cooking in Shattrath which was Manalicious and the daily fishing in Terokkar Forest which was The One That Got Away. I got the usual rewards for those, nothing special. I did a bunch of daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade and one in K3. I did a bunch of others too and made about 180 gold. The daily battleground today was Alterac Valley. I grabbed the quest and went to queue when I saw that there were no battles going on so I dropped the quest. If I had gone in we would have started 10 to 40, after a long wait, and gotten owned so I didn't bother. I did do 9 Eye of the Storm battles though, 5 wins and 4 losses. We had our 5 wins right in a row, the first 5 I was in, then you could just see the quality of the players change, I don't know if nap time got over or school got out but we started losing and I mean losing hard. In the first 5 we held at least 3 towers and ran the flag. We won one battle 2000/2. Then it all changed, it wasn't the same people and we were lucky if we weren't rezzing on the rock. Hopefully tomorrow's battleground will be something other than Alterac Valley.

Wranngar 1/18/09

I played Wranngar for a while tonight. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran which was Cheese for Glowergold. I ran around Dalaran getting half filled wine glasses until I had enough then I ran over to the cheese shop and got the cheese I needed. After I put the cheese on the platter I delivered it and got my Small Spice Bag. That contained 6 Northern Spices and a Dalaran Cooking Award. Much better than my reward from yesterday. I did the daily fishing quest from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest. It was The One That Got Away which had me heading over to Lake Sunspring (34,43) in Nagrand. I got the World's Largest Mudfish on my first cast and headed back to Terokkar Forest. I turned it in and didn't get anything to speak of for rewards. From there I headed to Ironforge to turn some Borean Leather into Heavy Borean Leather for someone that was looking in trade. From there I headed back to North Rend, did some fishing, got my fishing up to 423, and eventually made my way back to Dalaran. I picked up a couple pieces of new gear today. I got Trollwoven Spaulders and Chain Gang Legguards. They gave me a few hundred more stamina and increased my armor and attack power. I also made a few things and got my leatherworking up to 431 and cooked a few dishes to get my cooking up to 431.

Wranngar 1/17/09

I only got on Wranngar for a little bit tonight. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran which was Quest: Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. It didn't take me long to gather up the Mushrooms in the sewers and I had the Chilled Meat in the bank. I cooked it up and delivered it. In my Small Spice Bag I got 2 Northern Spices and that was it. Kind of disappointing. I did the daily fishing in Terokkar Forest too. I went to see Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, for the quest and he gave me Bait Bandits. That's a pretty easy one and I flew over to the waterfall near Tuurem (52,37) in Terokkar Forest. I got my Blackfin Darter on the first cast and handed in. I didn't get anything worth mention for quest rewards from that.

Wranngar 1/15/09

I only had about an hour tonight on Wranngar so I did the daily cooking in Dalaran and the daily fishing in Terokkar Forest. The daily cooking was Quest: Infused Mushroom Meatloaf again so I headed down into the sewers in search of some mushrooms. I got the 4 I needed in a couple minutes, it went really quick today, there must not have been many people doing it at that time. I only saw one other person picking mushrooms while I was down there. After I had them I cooked them up with a couple pieces of Chilled Meat and turned it in. I didn't get an extra Dalaran Cooking Award in my Small Spice Bag but I did get 3 Northern Spices. I have 2 Dalaran Cooking Award's so tomorrow I will be able to get another recipe. After that I took the portal to Shattrath and got the daily fishing quest from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, which was Bait Bandits. I didn't do the daily cooking in Shattrath because it was one that required a lot of travel, I would have had to farm the meat because I didn't have any in the guild bank and there are really no rewards left from that quest, I have all the recipes and the meat you get as a reward is nice but sometimes not worth the effort. Anyway I flew over to the waterfall I do Bait Bandits at by Tuurem (52,37) in Terokkar Forest. I got my Blackfin Darter on the first cast and handed it in. The rewards were the usual, nothing special. Hopefully I will have more time tomorrow to do some battlegrounds. Arkantose has been wanting to do some battlegrounds with me.

Wranngar 1/14/09

I did the daily cooking in Dalaran on Wranngar as well as the daily cooking in Shattrath and the daily fishing in Terokkar Forest. The daily cooking in Dalaran was Quest: Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. It is a pretty easy quest that doesn't take long as long as you have some Chilled Meat in stock. I used my last 2 pieces so after I turned in I headed out to get some more. I headed to Sholazar Basin and got 32 pieces in about 20 minutes or so. I got a bunch of leather from that outing too. After that I headed to Shattrath and picked up the daily cooking, from The Rokk, (61,15), which was Soup for the Soul. I grabbed 4 Roasted Clefthoof from the guild bank then headed out and cooked it up. I turned it in but didn't get anything worth talking about. I did the daily fishing next which was Felblood Fillet. I flew over to the Pools of Aggonar (39,37) in Hellfire Peninsula and got my Monstrous Felblood Snapper on the first cast. Since the expansion I always get my daily fishing quest item on the first cast. The only good reward from that one was a Gold Wedding Band which I sold to a vendor for 15 gold. The daily battleground today was Eye of the Storm. We won the second one I was in. The first one started off pretty good, we had 2 towers and were taking a third when it all fell apart and we eventually ended up rezzing on the rock. In the second battle we had 2 towers at all times and 3 for the most part. We ran the flag a lot and it made for a pretty quick win.

Wranngar 1/13/09

I did the daily cooking in Dalaran on Wranngar and got another Dalaran Cooking Award which allowed me to get Recipe: Dragonfin Filet. I cooked up 4 of them because I needed it for the North Rend Gourmet Cooking Achievement and that got my cooking to 428. I also got 3 Northern Spices in my Small Spice Bag from that daily. I went and did the daily fishing and cooking in Outlands too. It only took a few minutes but I didn't get anything good. After that I went into the battlegrounds. The daily was Alterac Valley and I fought in two of them but stopped because they were taking forever to get into and were so imbalanced once I did get in. We had one battle that was 11 Allaince versus 40 Horde, a little uneven. Anyway I fought in 2 battles there and they were both losses. Then I went into the Strand of the Ancients. I fought in 3 battles in there, 1 win and 2 losses. I am still undecided how I feel about this battleground. Sometimes I really like it and other times not so much. The was one incident in the first loss we had where I died right before the Horde captured the Titan Relic and all of a sudden there was a load screen and I found myself in Westfall at the graveyard with a 15 minute deserter debuff on me. Strange thing is I queued for the battleground out of Darnassus so I am not sure how I eneded up there. I might get on a little later and do a few more battlegrounds.

Battlegrounds 1/12/09

I did some battlegrounds on Wranngar tonight. The daily was Strand of the Ancients, one I had never done before. I ended up fighting in 6 of them, 3 wins and 3 losses. I am not really sure enough of what is going on to know what we did wrong in the 3 we lost but the Horde seemed really good in those battles. There are two rounds in Strand of the Ancients, in the first round the Alliance are the attackers and the Horde are the defenders. In the second round the Alliance are the defenders and the Horde are the attackers. The object is to attack the gates when you are the attackers and defend them when you are the defenders. You use tanks to attack and destroy the gates and the main objective is a relic. If you can get the relic you win that round. I don't know what happens if both sides fail to get the relic or if both sides do get the relic but I am sure I will find out soon enough. I was queuing out of Dalaran for this but I believe there is a Battle Master for Strand of the Ancients in Darnassus too. I also fought in 1 Eye of the Storm, a win, 1 Arathi Basin, a loss, 1 WarSong Gulch, a loss and 1 Alterac Valley also a loss. I will do some more Strand of the Ancients tomorrow, I was getting good kills and good honor. This could be the new AV.

Wranngar 1/12/09

I played Wranngar for a couple hours tonight and got the daily cooking done and got his fishing skill to 420. I was fishing off the coast of Borean Tundra trying to catch Deep Sea Monsterbelly's so I could make Gigantic Feast but I didn't have any luck. I figured I would get my 10 points in anyway while I was there. I got a lot of good fish which I put in the guild bank for later use. I got a Dalaran Cooking Award in my Small Spice Bag today so I only need one more to get another recipe. I also went to the auction house and got every recipe I didn't have, except for the crazy priced ones. They were mostly lower level recipes but I want to have them all anyway so why not. I learned those and now I know 126 recipes. I also earned the Achievement for catching 500 fish. I know I have caught a lot more than 500 fish in my time but this must have started counting when this whole Achievement thing started. I looked in the auction house for Northern Spices and they are going for 5 gold each or a stack of 20 for 100 gold. That is outrageous seeing how you can get 10 for one Dalaran Cooking Award from the cooking vendor in Dalaran. I will just get mine that way because I am not paying 100 gold a stack for them.

Wranngar 1/11/09

I got Wranngar's fishing skill to 410 today while also getting some good fish to cook into buff food. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran and the daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade. I got my Leatherworking to 426 and learned some new patterns from the trainer. I made a few new pieces for myself to wear which increased my health by over 1500. I cooked up some more buff food for myself too. I got a new recipe with my Dalaran Cooking Award's so now I need 3 more before I can get another recipe. I only have 3 Northern Spices but I think I can buy them on the auction house. You get 10 for one Dalaran Cooking Award from the vendor in Dalaran but they are not soul bound. I hope I can get some on the auction house anyway.

Wranngar 1/10/09

I got my fishing up to 400 on Wranngar tonight. I was fishing in the river over by Amberpine Lodge in Grizzly Hills. Unfortunately all the fish I caught were gray when it came to cooking them so I didn't get any cooking points from them. I also got the daily cooking done then went over to K3 to kill some Mammoths for meat. I needed to make some more buff food that is good for me. All that food I have been cooking lately really dosen't do anything for me, it is mostly spell power and stuff like that.

Wranngar 1/7/09

I finished up my exploring on Wranngar tonight. It took me forever to get Bloodmyst Isle cleared but I did and I got my "the Explorer" title. I also did the daily cooking quest and worked on my cooking some. I went out and farmed a bunch of meat and fish for cooking and also for the North Rend Gourmet Achievement. I got my fishing up to 391 and my cooking up to 427. I also have a lot of buff food in the guild bank again. I helped out Salintu, a guildie, in Nagrand on a few Elite quests. Tomorrow all I have to do is bake a Delicious Chocolate Cake and I will complete the Outland Gourmet Achievement. Tomorrow I will get back into the battlegrounds, hopefully the Alliance is doing better. I also had the opportunity to check out a band performing at the World's End Tavern in Shattrath.

Wranngar 1/6/09

I did my daily cooking in Dalaran on Wranngar then headed over to Kalimdor and did some more exploring. I am pretty close to finishing up there, I have Durotar to explore and Bloodmyst Isle to finish up. I will get that done tomorrow and be done with it. After that I will be able to get back to the battlegrounds and daily's.

Wranngar 1/5/09

I did the daily cooking in Dalaran on Wranngar tonight. I had to go out and hunt down some chilled meat to complete it. Once I had that done I headed over to Kalimdor and did some more exploring. I got a few places opened up and it seems to be moving right along. Maybe I will be able to finish up the exploring tomorrow or the day after. The Alliance is doing so bad in the battlegrounds I was in I am just discouraged. Maybe disgusted is a better word. I guess I will try the battlegrounds again when I am done exploring.

Wranngar 1/4/09

I played Wranngar some tonight. I did the daily cooking in Dalaran, the daily cooking and fishing in Outlands, The Knights of the Ebon Blade daily's and then went exploring. I got all of Eastern Kingdoms opened up. I am now working on Kalimdor. I spent a long time in the Barrens last night trying to open that up then I finally found what I was missing. I will do my daily's tomorrow and then continue exploring.

Wranngar 1/2-1/3/09

I only did the daily cooking on Wranngar on the 2nd, it was all I had time for. Today I did the daily cooking, the Knights of the Ebon Blade daily's, a daily at K3 and 3 EoS battles, all losses. The Alliance is not doing too well after all in EoS from what I saw. I am going to check it out tomorrow early in the day and see if it is any better. I also did a lot of farming for meat and got a bunch of leather. I have 2 Dalaran Cooking Award's, I will get my 3rd one tomorrow and get another recipe. I cooked up 13 Great Feast today and only got one point in cooking for it :(. My cooking is now 421 and I need 4 more before I can get the 425 skill recipes which will be brown to me so I will get a skill point off each thing I cook for awhile. I got my Leatherworking to 420 and went and got some more training. I will work on that some more tomorrow too. I got a lot of leather while farming the ingredients for the Great Feast and that will come in handy.

Wranngar 1/1/09

I played Wranngar tonight. I did 2 more AV's, both losses and 3 EoS, 1 win and 2 losses. EoS wasn't bad and I think we are doing good overall in there, 3 battles is not really a huge sampling. In one AV we were at Drek and were ready to take him down but people were a little scattered. Then people were running in one at a time and getting killed. Also the Horde had Frostwolf Graveyard so they we running into the Keep, getting killed, rezzing right down the road and running back in. It was a little dysfunctional on our part. The other one was a loss where we didn't really have anything. Eye of the Storm was a little better, we got beat 3 towers to 1 in 2 of the battles but we had our win by us holding 3 towers and running the flag. So I think when you get good groups together you can still win often in EoS. I also picked up Reins of the Armored Brown Bear which is a cool looking bear mount. I got it from a guy on the street in Dalaran for 750 gold. I thought it was fitting for a Druid to be riding a bear mount. I got my 3rd Dalaran Cooking Award I needed for another recipe and got Recipe: Hearty Rhino. I cooked some of that up and got my cooking to 417. That is coming along slowly but surely. 425 is the next level of recipes so they will all be green until then. I also did the daily cooking and fishing in Shattrath but didn't get anything out of the ordinary from that.
