Wranngar 2/9/09

I got on Wranngar for a while tonight and got the daily cooking in Dalaran done. That was about it for daily's today. The daily cooking was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf again. I headed down into the Underbelly to get my 4 Infused Mushrooms and got them pretty quick. I headed over to the bank for a couple Chilled Meat to cook them up with. Once I had it cooked I delivered it in exchange for a Dalaran Cooking Award, 9g93s and a Small Spice Bag. Today the Small Spice Bag only had 3 Northern Spices in it. Not the best haul. I got another recipe today and cooked that. I now only have 8 recipes left until I get my chef title. There are 45 recipes in Northrend and you have to have, and have cooked, all of them to get the chef title.

I fought in my first Wintergrasp battle today. I was so focused on trying to figure out what was going on that I forgot take pictures. I went in there with the intention of taking lots of pictures but forgot all about that once I got in there. We won it. I think we were the defenders. I fought in 9 Eye of the Storm battles, 8 wins and 1 loss. The daily battleground today was Alterac Valley but I won't go in there anymore because of the imbalance in numbers when the battle starts. It doesn't take long to lose when we are outnumbered 4 to 1 and half our 10 players are AFK. In Eye of the Storm we were doing well for the most part although I was in a few groups where the outcome was questionable right until the end. They were leaving towers unguarded to go after more towers, way too many people were going for the flag instead of trying to get more towers or defending the ones we had. We also had some pretty good groups where we had 4 caps going on.

I did a bunch more fishing in the Underbelly under Dalaran on and off today. I did some fishing between battlegrounds to kind of break things up a little. While I was fishing someone else who was fishing right next to me got the Giant Sewer Rat and completed the I Smell A Giant Rat Achievement so I know I am in the right place, now I just need my turn. I got a lot of stuff fishing today, it is like a toxic waste dump down there with all the vials you fish up. It was funny because I was fishing right next to a spawn point for an Infused Mushroom so people were constantly stopping by for that. All in all today I caught:

126 Sewer Carp
48 Magic Eater
12 Empty Vial
10 Partially Eaten Fish
7 Drowned Rat
2 Leaded Vial
1 Crystal Vial
1 Imbued Vial

Really nothing useful there at all but I am going to keep plugging away at this one a little every day until I get my Giant Sewer Rat. It is a nice break to run down there and do a little fishing between battles.
