One Year on Blogger 3/31/09

Today is the one year anniversary of my first post on Blogger. I originally started this blog on Wordpress (Adam’s Warcraft Weblog) but moved it to Blogger because they had more versatility and Wordpress does not allow Adsense. Been a full year of playing and blogging, I hope the next year goes as well :).

I did the daily cooking in Dalaran on both Wranngar and Gomorra. Today it was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. I headed into the sewers and got my Infused Mushrooms on both then grabbed some Chilled Meat from the guild bank and cooked up some meatloafs. Once I had them done I delivered them to Orton Bennet at Curiosities and Moore. He gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award, and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices and 4 Baby Spice in it. Not a bad haul for Gomorra today. Tomorrow he will be able to get another recipe with his awards. Wranngar got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 4 Northern Spices in it. Wranngar didn't make out as well. I spent Wranngar's award on 10 more Northern Spices, Gomorra is saving his for recipes.

I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir after that but first I stopped off at K3 in the Storm Peaks to do Overstock. I got that out of the way, collected my 13 gold and continued on to The Son's of Hodir. I did my 5 daily's for them, Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim. These don't take me too long and I get around 66 gold, 1700 honor and a lot of meat and leather. I always make sure I farm a couple herds of Mammoth while I am there to get some meat and leather. The Worms are a lot easier because they are constantly attacking you so you end up with a lot of meat, leather and scales from them too.

I didn't do my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade tonight, I decided to work on leveling Gomorra some instead.

I did the daily fishing on Gomorra today. I headed over to see what Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, had for me. Today he had Felblood Fillet so I headed over to the Pools of Aggonar (39,37) in Hellfire Peninsula to catch a Monstrous Felblood Snapper. I got one on the 5th cast and headed back to Old Man Barlo to turn it in for my Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 6g72s45c, 6 Sharpened Fish Hooks and some Noble's Monocle in it. I kept the gold and hooks and sold the Noble's Monacle to a vendor for 11g28s3c. All in all not a bad return for Gomorra on this one.

I didn't want to go back to Zul'Drak, it is probably my least favorite place to quest in North Rend. Instead I did some quests on Gomorra in Dragonblight, I hadn't done any questing there yet. I also ran into some level 74 elite worms running around that I was killing for meat and leather while getting 5660 (rested) XP per kill :). They only had 30k health so they weren't hard elites, I was taking them down no problem. I found some quests there that I didn't do on Wranngar so that was really nice, not doing the same quests over again. I had one quest where I had to kill a level 75 elite. She had about 56k health and she took a lot longer than the worms but wasn't really a problem. I was loading her up with DoT's ('Damage over Time' spells) and then healing my Felguard, refresh the DoT's, heal the Felguard and repeat. I am actually able to kill things with their level in red without much problem using that technique, elites excluded. I am about 13 1/2 bars into level 75 and should hit 76 tomorrow. Then I will be able to head over to Sholazar Basin and quest there. That should get me to 77, and my cold weather flying training, pretty quick.
