Cheese for Glowergold

Cheese for Glowergold is my least favorite daily cooking quest in Dalaran. To say I hate it wouldn't be going too far at all. If you're Alliance you get this one from Katherine Lee (41,65), in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome. That is where all the Alliance daily cooking quests start. If you're Horde you get it from Awilo Lon'gomba (70,38), inside The Filthy Animal next to Krasus' Landing.

The objective of this daily is to run all over Dalaran collecting Half Full Dalaran Wine Glasses. You need 6 of them. If you think Wild Mustard is hard to target, I know I do, then you're in for a real treat. You will also have to pick up a chunk of Aged Dalaran Limburger from One More Glass (53,33), the wine and cheese shop in central Dalaran. This item spawns and can spawn anywhere inside the store, upstairs or down.

The most common places to find the Half Full Dalaran Wine Glasses are in the Legerdemain, A Hero's Welcome, One More Glass, (upstairs and down in those three) and a place everyone seems to overlook, Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly. Between both my characters I got 5 out of Cantrips and Crows Tavern tonight, it was the most I got at any single stop. You can get one or two in other places but these seem to have the highest concentration and spawn rate. Once you have the 6 Half Full Dalaran Wine Glasses and the chunk of Aged Dalaran Limburger you will need to combine them on the platter you were supplied with. To do this simply right click on the platter. You do not need a cooking fire to combine them.

Deliver them to Ranid Glowergold (36,28) at the Leatherworkers in the Magus Commerce Exchange. He will give you 9g93s, at least one Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag that can contain any, or all, of the following:

Northern Spices
Old Spices
Baby Spice
Dalaran Cooking Award
And if you don't have it, Recipe: Delicious Chocolate Cake. (This is a rare drop, 1.7%)

Good Luck :)

Jewel of the Sewers

We finally had a new daily fishing quest in Dalaran today, it was Jewel Of The Sewers. I got this from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran. To complete the quest you have to fish up a piece of Corroded Jewelry in the sewers. I headed down into the sewers with no real idea where I was going to fish for this.

I tried the middle first, the Circle of Wills, but didn't have any luck after 10 casts so I headed over to the Black Market to see if I would have any better luck. This was on Wranngar and he ended up getting the piece of Corroded Jewelry he needed to complete the quest on his 8th cast in the Black Market.

The quest gives you a tip, "The trick is to let your hook drag the bottom and don't pull up too hard when get something". I fished this like I was fishing anything else, right clicked on my bobber as soon as it bobbed and got my loot.

I did it again on Gomorra after that and decided to try over by the Cantrips and Crows Tavern first, to see if I could get one there. I gave up there after 10 casts and headed over to the Black Market. I got my piece of Corroded Jewelry on my 2nd cast there.

This quest gets turned back in to Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran. The reward is a Bag of Fishing Treasures which can contain anything from pets to epic gems to worthless pieces of glass, that sell for 5 copper each to a vendor, and anything in between. It always contains some gold too, anywhere from 6 to 10 gold along with some silver and copper.

I would definitely say the place to fish for Corroded Jewelry is in the Black Market. There was hardly anyone there (one other person) when I was fishing. There were a few people fishing in the middle and a lot of people fishing over by the Cantrips and Crows Tavern. This is the first time I have seen this quest in the lineup since I started the daily fishing in Dalaran a couple days after patch 3.1.

There are still 2 more I have not seen yet, Dangerously Delicious and The Ghostfish. Hopefully they will show up soon, I will let you know how I make out.

Good Luck :)
