Battlegrounds 3/6/09

The daily battleground today was Arathi Basin. I did it on Wranngar and we won the first one I was in. It didn't look like we were going to win at the start, we had the Stables, almost had the Lumber Mill and almost had the Gold Mine. Then we lost the Lumber Mill. We went along with only 2 nodes until we were almost 300 behind then we picked up the Farm. Meanwhile I was guarding the Gold Mine and had a few attacks I fought off with help from people who responded to my call of incoming. We put a lot of pressure on the Blacksmith and got most the Horde there then took the Lumber Mill. After that we lost the Farm which put us at 3 nodes to 2 for a little while but then we picked up the Blacksmith and lost the Gold Mine. That still left us at 3 to 2 until we picked up the Farm again. It went like that throughout the entire battle but we ended up winning by over 500 points. I fought in one Eye of the Storm after that, we didn't do so well in there. As a matter of fact I decided to call it a night on the battlegrounds after that one. We lost that one when the Horde 4 capped us pretty much from the start. Everyone was coming off the rock, everyone that didn't just go AFK, and trying to take the Mage Tower and the Dareni Ruins. ALL the Horde were on that side of the field, what they should have been going after was BET and FRR but me and another person were the only ones that did. I got FRR to clock over so at least the Horde weren't holding it when they won, so they didn't get a 4 cap :).

The daily cooking today was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf so I headed down into the Sewers to get some Infused Mushrooms. I got 4 of them pretty quick then ran over to the bank and got a couple Chilled Meat to cook it up with. I lit a fire outside the bank and cooked my Infused Mushroom Meatloaf then delivered it in exchange for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag. Today my Small Spice Bag had 3 Northern Spices, 3 Old Spices and another Dalaran Cooking Award. I got another 20 Northern Spices with my 2 cooking awards and put them in the guild bank. Now I have 173.

I didn't do my Knights of the Ebon Blade daily's today because I really didn't have the time but I did head over to the Storm Peaks to do Overstock. This quest is so fast and easy there is always time to do it. It only takes a couple minutes and pays around 13 gold. I will get back on all my daily's tomorrow night when I have a little more time and I have Sunday off so I should have a little more time to play. I am slowly restocking my gold supply.
