Update 4/14/09

I was able to get on long enough after downloading the patch to do the daily cooking quest on Gomorra. I printed out his talents yesterday in anticipation of getting all my talent points reimbursed but didn't print out Wranngar's for some reason unknown even to myself so I am not going to log onto him until I can get those printed out. It makes it so much easier when you have something to follow.

The daily cooking today was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf again so I got all the things I needed and cooked some up. When I delivered it I got a Dalaran Cooking Award, 9g93s and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices in it. Not a bad return I guess. Gomorra got a new recipe today, Poached Nettlefish, with his awards and also purchased the recipe for Black Jelly from the cooking trainer in Dalaran for 5 gold. This is a pretty nice recipe for a non-buff food, it restores 18,000 health and 15,000 mana in 30 seconds. He whipped up a batch of those just to have them on hand. Wranngar will pick it up too when he gets on.

Patch 3.1.0

I spent almost all my available play time downloading the new patch tonight, hopefully it will be worth it :). There are a lot of new changes so it should be. I am looking forward to dual specing Gomorra. He is currently a Master Demonologist and his second spec will be Destruction. I leveled Gomorra from level 1 to 70 as Destruction and really liked it but changed him to Demonology after I hit level 70 just to try it out. I always thought that Demonology was useless because if you lose your minion you got nothing, but once I switched to check it out I didn't want to go back. His other option is Affliction. I have come across Affliction Warlocks in the battleground and if you have enough health to wait out their spells while you kill them they are not a problem. In the past both Gomorra and Wranngar have had enough health and Wranngar can dispel most spells and poisons.

Wranngar is spec'd Feral. My other options for a dual spec are Balance and Restoration. I do enough casting on Gomorra so I don't really want to go Balance. Restoration is for healing and the only place I would use that is in the battlegrounds. Most of the people I see in the battlegrounds are, in my opinion, too stupid to live so why would I encourage them by healing them? It is best that they are put out of their misery as soon as possible. I am going to look into having a second Feral spec for tanking if I ever decide to do instances on him, but Gomorra is the one I am currently planning on doing instances with and keeping Wranngar in the battlegrounds where he does best.
