Northrend Daily's 4/19/09

I did my daily's tonight on Wranngar and Gomorra. As usual I did the daily cooking first. Today it was Sewer Stew so I was off to Crystalsong Forest. I got all the Crystalsong Carrots I needed as fast as I could run around and pick them, there was no one there. I flew back to Dalaran and cooked them up with some Chilled Meat which makes Sewer Stew. I delivered them to Ajay Green at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly and he gave Gomorra 9g93s, 2 Dalaran Cooking Awards and a Small Spice Bag with 5 Northern Spices in it. Not a bad haul for Gom today. Wranngar got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices, 4 Old Spices and 3 Baby Spice. Not a bad haul for Wrann either.

Afterwards I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir. Both Wranngar and Gomorra do Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim. While I was doing Hot and Cold a Horde player threw one of his Essences of Ice onto a node I was standing right next to. He just stood there and waited for me to take it. I thought about it but then just walked away. If I had just outright ninja'd it I would have been no better than the rest that do that. If I had gotten one ninja'd from me that day I probably would have but I didn't so I let it go. I wonder what he would have done if the roles were reversed? These daily's take me about 20-25 minutes each depending on how many people are doing them. As usual I stopped off at K3 in the Storm Peaks on Wranngar to do Overstock. That only took me a couple minutes and I was on my way again, 13 gold richer.

I did my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade after that. I do Leave Our Mark and Vile Like Fire! on Gomorra and those two plus From Their Corpses, Rise!, No Fly Zone, Shoot 'Em Up and Intelligence Gathering on Wranngar. I only turn in Intelligence Gathering when I have enough documents, usually once a week or so. It can take you as long to get all 5 documents as it does to do all the other quests combined so I just collect them until I have enough to turn in.

I made another piece of Moonshroud and 2 more pieces of Ebonweave tonight on Gomorra. He is one piece away from making his Ebonweave Robe. I sent the materials to a friend, Aldure, and he is going to make my last piece so I don't have to wait 4 days to make more. Tomorrow I will make my robe :).

Northrend Daily Fishing Quest

I found the daily fishing quest in Dalaran today. It came out with the 3.1 patch. You pick it up from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran. Today I got Blood Is Thicker. What you have to do for this is, go to Borean Tundra and kill something the Druids don't approve of you killing, then while covered in blood, jump into the water to make a blood pool to attract Bloodtooth Frenzy.

This what I did. I flew to Unu'pe in Borean Tundra, then flew inland until I was off the snow belt. I killed the first animal I saw (Stag or Antelope or something) then flew back to Unu'pe and jumped into the water. I fished the blood pool and was done in two casts, I got 3 Bloodtooth Frenzy on each cast. I flew back to Dalaran and handed it in. The reward is a Bag of Fishing Treasures just like the Outlands daily fishing from Old Man Barlo.

Gomorra's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 8g9s87c, 2 Elixirs of Water Walking and 2 Crafted Stars in it. Not knowing what to expect I thought that was ok, especially as I can really use the Elixirs.

Wranngar's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 8g42s14c, a Whale Statue, 2 Deviate Fish and (Are you ready for this?) a Solid Stormjewel. An epic BoE jewel on his first daily fishing quest in Northrend with an auction house value around 715 gold :). Not a bad return for him at all. I sold the Whale Statue to a vendor for 11 gold.

Needless to say I will be doing this daily on both every day.
