Fishing & Stuff 03/07/09

I did some fishing tonight on Wranngar. I did the daily fishing quest I picked up from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, which was Crocolisks in the City. I went back to Shattrath and took the portal to Stormwind then ran over to the canals to fish. I got my Baby Crocolisk on the 12th cast, didn't take too long today. I flew over to Nethergarde Keep then rode over to the portal and flew back to Terokkar Forest and handed it in. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g23s1c, 6 Sharpened Fish Hooks, which was kind of nice as I was running low, and a Broken Spyglass which I sold to a vendor for 2 gold. I did a bunch of fishing in the Underbelly in Dalaran tonight too. I got a lot of fish and some vials and old gnawed fish bones but not a Giant Sewer Rat in the bunch. I did drink a Underbelly Elixir, which was a half full bottle I found down there in the sewers, and it turned me into a wasp. I will keep plugging away at this achievement until I finally get my Giant Sewer Rat. I usually fish down there when I take a break from the battlegrounds.

Today's daily battleground was Strand of the Ancients. We won the second one I was in. In the first one we didn't have a very good group or weren't coordinating or something because it didn't go well at all. In the second battle we did a lot better, we got the Titan Portal within a couple minutes and then held the Horde off from even getting to the gates of the keep when it was there turn on offense. That battle went a lot better to say the least. I fought in one Eye of the Storm after that which we lost. We started off 6 to 15 and when it ended in our loss it was 10 to 15 so we never even stood a chance. Well, I guess the Horde have to win once in awhile and take what they can get.

I did my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade, They are: From Their Corpses, Rise!, No Fly Zone, Intelligence Gathering, Leave Our Mark, Shoot 'Em Up and Vile Like Fire!. These are pretty easy and even Shoot 'Em Up and Intelligence Gathering went quick today. I don't use the Skeletal Gryphon they give you to do No Fly Zone, it is quicker and easier to just fly over there in Swift Flight Form and lure then down to a surface where I can switch to cat form and kill them. I did my daily in the Storm Peaks which is Overstock. This one only takes me a couple minutes and pays around 13 gold, I would recommend this as a daily for anyone who wants a little fast easy gold.

The daily cooking quest today was Convention at the Legerdemain. This one is pretty easy, I headed over to the guild bank and got 4 pieces of Chilled Meat which I cooked into 4 Northern Stew. Once I had my stew I headed over to the wine and cheese shop for a Jug of Wine. It took me a couple minutes of running upstairs and downstairs and even outside because I saw it spawn outside by the sample giver. I finally found one behind the counter where you come in. I delivered that to the Legerdemain in exchange for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag. Today my Small Spice Bag only had 4 Northern Spices in it. Normally I would call that a good day but I was expecting another Dalaran Cooking Award in it. Today is the first day since I got my Chef title that I have not received 2 Dalaran Cooking Awards :(. I took my Dalaran cooking award and got 10 Northern Spices which I put in the guild bank giving me a total of 187. Hopefully tomorrow I will get 2 again and that will put me over 200.
