Kalu'ak Fishing Dreby 3/26/10

I entered the Kalu'ak Fishing Derby today on Wranngar. I should have done it on Brieanna, she has a lot better luck fishing.

This time I figured I would save some travel time and fish for the Blacktip Shark in Crystalsong Forest instead of going all the way to Sholazar Basin. I started out close to 10 minutes late, I just happened to hearth to Dalaran and saw the fishing promoter standing there. I fished for a full 50 minutes and didn't catch a Blacktip Shark.

The last time I entered, about a month ago on Brieanna, I got a Blacktip Shark after fishing for about 45 minutes in Sholazar Basin, maybe I should have headed there again. You can catch a Blacktip Shark anywhere you catch Pygmy Suckerfish, and I caught about 30 in Crystalsong Forest today so I know it is possible to catch one there. Even if you are not the first one to hand in a Blacktip Shark, you still get a consolation prize of a Bag of Fishing Treasures. That would have been fine by me but I didn't even get that today.

I will have to set up some kind of an alarm for the future so I don't miss this again, I would like to win this one or at least get the consolation prize again lol.

Disarmed

I got the new daily fishing quest when I went to see Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran today. This is actually a new version of an old daily, Disarmed is replacing Monsterbelly Appetite.

The story behind this is, a guard at the Dalaran Prison, better know as Violet Hold, had his arm ripped off by an unruly inmate and tossed into the water outside the prison gate. You need to fish up that arm. You want to fish right across from the entrance to the Violet Hold Instance (65,60). There is a little 'dock' there you can fish from. What you are looking to catch is a Bloated Slippery Eel. This is very similar to Monsterbelly Appetite in you have to open the Bloated Slippery Eel to find the Severed Arm inside. Once you have the Severed Arm you take it to Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange, where she is going to attempt to reunite it with the guard. You get the usual reward of a Bag of Fishing Treasures which can have any number of great things inside or, possibly, just junk.

All in all I think this is a great improvement over Monsterbelly Appetite as there is no travel time involved. You get the quest from Marcia, run just about next door to where she is standing, and fish for your Bloated Slippery Eel. It couldn't be easier or faster.

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 3/23/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Jewel Of The Sewers for Brieanna. This is a nice easy one and the only daily fishing quest you don't have to leave Dalaran to complete.

This had me running down to the Black Market in the sewers below Dalaran. Once there I went to my spot and got down to fishing. My random daily heroic dungeon popped while I was fishing, so I left to do that, but I still think it was under 10 casts by the time I got the piece of Corroded Jewelry I was after.

I took that back up to Marcia and traded her for a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g62s10c, 3 Elixirs of Water Walking and an Unusual Compass in it, about the usual return on this one. There are some great items to get from this daily and I have gotten quite a few of them, but there are still some I haven't gotten yet so I keep plugging away at it in hopes of the good stuff.

Daily Fishing - Monsterbelly Appetite 3/19/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Monsterbelly Appetite for Brieanna. It's been a little while since this one has come into the rotation.

This had me flying to Unu'pe, then out to sea, to the icebergs you can see from shore. I guess you could swim out there if you had to. I flew around until I found a school of Deep Sea Monsterbelly to fish from. I got my Bloated Monsterbelly on the first cast and cut it open to get the Severed Arm I was after.

I hearthed back and went to see Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange in Dalaran. This is the only daily fishing quest that does not get handed back in to Marcia. I gave her the Severed Arm and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g79s17c, 3 Elixirs of Water Walking and a Sealed Vial of Poison in it.

Sealed Vial of Poison starts a quest. The quest is simply to bring the Sealed Vial of Poison to Alchemist Cinesra in the Black Market, located in the sewers below Dalaran. He gives you 13g23s and it only takes about 30 seconds, not a bad deal.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 3/18/10

When Brieanna went to see what Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had for her she ended up with Blood Is Thicker.

This had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Unu'pe in the Borean Tundra. Once there I flew inland until I found a Marsh Caribou to kill. Killing that gets me covered in blood which is part of this quest. You can kill any animal the Druids protect, I just always kill a Marsh Caribou because it is closest to the flight point in Unu'pe. Once I was covered in blood I flew back over to the shore and jumped in the water. This washes the blood off me and also creates a blood pool which I need to fish for the Bloodtooth Frenzy this quest calls for. The fishing takes no time at all, you fish in the blood pool until you catch 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy. That goes really quick as you catch them 2 or 3 at a time.

I hearthed back to Dalaran when I had the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy I needed and went to see Marcia. I turned the fish over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my efforts. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g92s47c, a Glow Worm, 3 Worthless Pieces of Violet Glass, and 2 Deviate Fish in it. I have had better days of fishing.

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 3/13/10

Today when Brieanna went to see what Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had for the daily fishing quest she got Jewel Of The Sewers. This is an easy one and the only daily fishing quest you don't have to leave Dalaran for.

This had me heading down to my spot at The Black Market. I always have good luck there and there is never anyone around. Today it only took Brieanna 6 casts to get the piece of Corroded Jewelry she was after. I got the usual other stuff too, drowned rat, empty vials, weeds, and so on.

I took the piece of Corroded Jewelry back up to Marcia and traded it for a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today it had 8g63s70c, 3 Pygmy Oil, 3 Worthless Pieces of Green Glass, 2 Deviate Fish, High Test Eternium Fishing Line, that adds +5 to your fishing skill which I have been hoping to get for a while now, and a Waterlogged Recipe in it.

I love getting a Waterlogged Recipe, it starts a quest. The quest is to take it over and deliver it to Christi Stockton, the wine vendor at One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop in Dalaran. She gives you 13g23s and 5 Dalaran Cooking Awards for it. This quest takes less than a minute from the time you accept it until you are counting your cooking awards. Not a bad deal at all. All in all a great day of fishing today, it has been a good week of fishing for Brieanna.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 3/12/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Blood Is Thicker for Brieanna again.

This had me flying over to Unu'pe, then heading inland until I found a Marsh Caribou to kill so I could get covered in blood. Once I was good and covered in blood I headed back to shore and jumped in. That does two things, it washes the blood off me and creates a blood pool. I need the blood pool to fish for the Bloodtooth Frenzy this quest is looking for. I need 5. It didn't take me very long to catch them, you get them 2 or 3 at a time so it goes pretty quick.

Once I had the 5 I needed I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Marcia. I traded the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy for a Bag of Fishing Treasures which today had 7g43s82c, 2 Elixirs of Water Walking, 3 Solid Gold Coins and 2 Deviate Fish in it. I have had better days of fishing but am still ahead for the week after getting the Jeweled Fishing Pole the other day.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 3/11/10

Today when Brieanna went to see Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, for her daily fishing quest she got Blood Is Thicker. This one requires a little travel time.

This had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Unu'pe. Once in Unu'pe I fly inland until I find a Marsh Caribou to kill so I get overed in blood. You can kill any of the animals the Druids protect to get covered in blood. Once I was covered in blood I flew back to the shore and jumped in. That washed the blood off me and created a blood pool. I fished in the blood pool until I caught 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Marcia. When I hearth to Dalaran I end up at Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly, so I just had to run up top to see her. I turned the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today it had 10g48s80c, 3 Pygmy Oil and an Unusual Compass in it. Not a great day of fishing but that is Ok, because the other day I finally got the Jeweled Fishing Pole and that makes up for a lot of bad day's of fishing.

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 3/10/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Jewel Of The Sewers for Brieanna. This is a nice easy one and the only one you don't have to leave Dalaran for.

This had me running down to the sewers below Dalaran, to my spot at the Black Market. I always have good luck there and today was no exception. I went to my usual spot, there was no one there, and got the piece of Corroded Jewelry I was after on my 8th cast. I also got the usual junk, some sewer carp, empty vials, the usual medical waste.

I took the piece of Corroded Jewelry and headed up to see Marcia. I traded her the Jewelry for a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 9g93s86c, 3 Pygmy Oil, 2 Worthless Pieces of Orange Glass and, are you ready for this? The elusive Jeweled Fishing Pole. I couldn't believe it. Brieanna is the only one of my toons that would actually use it too, it is definitely a chick pole. I had just about given up on ever seeing this on any of my toons.

Daily Fishing - Dangerously Delicious 3/9/10

Today when Brieanna went to see Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, for her daily fishing quest she got... Can you guess? Dangerously Delicious again. None of the daily's changed from yesterday.

This had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Wintergrasp, the combat zone. Once there I started fishing right by where you land. It didn't take me long again today to get the 10 Terrorfish I needed, less than 5 minutes. I didn't see any Horde while I was there again today.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and took the Terrorfish over to Marcia. She gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures in exchange for them. Today it had 10g64s61c, 3 Pygmy Oil, 2 Solid Gold Coins and 3 Deviate Fish in it. Not a great return on this one today.

Daily Fishing - Dangerously Delicious 3/8/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Dangerously Delicious for Brieanna's daily fishing quest. This one has me going to Wintergrasp, the combat zone, to fish.

I took the flight path to the flight point in Wintergrasp and started fishing right there by where you land. There were a few other people there so I didn't expect any trouble and there was none. It took me less than 5 minutes to catch the 10 Terrorfish I needed. At that point the battle for Wintergrasp started so I joined up with that. Come for the fishing, stay for the fighting I always say. We won that one.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Marcia. I turned the 10 Terrorfish over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g28s46c, 3 Northsea Pearls, 2 Worthless Pieces of Violet Glass, 2 Deviate Fish and a Waterlogged Recipe.

I love getting the Waterlogged Recipe. It starts a really simple quest to take the recipe and give it to Christi Stockton, the wine vendor at One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop in Dalaran. She gives you 13g23s and 5 Dalaran Cooking Awards for it. Not a bad deal at all.

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 3/7/10

Today when Brieanna went to see what Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had for her she got Jewel Of The Sewers. You don't even have to leave Dalaran for this one, it is right down in the sewers.

This had me heading down to my spot at The Black Market in the Dalaran sewers. I have a spot I always go to and have good luck at. I started fishing and got my piece of Corroded Jewelry in 9 casts. I usually get it in 10 casts or less so that was right on track. I got some other stuff too, it is like a medical waste dump down there, I got some empty vials, a couple drowned rats, the usual.

I took the Corroded Jewelry and headed back up to see Marcia. I turned the piece of Corroded Jewelry over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g16s73c, 4 Pygmy Oil, 2 Solid Gold Coins and 2 Runic Mana Potions. Not the best day of fishing but the rewards from this usually aren't that great, I guess that's what makes the good stuff seem so great when you finally get it.

Daily Fishing - Monsterbelly Appetite 3/6/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Monsterbelly Appetite for Brieanna. This is a simple one but requires a little travel time.

This had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Unu'pe in the Borean Tudra. Once there I flew out to the icebergs you can see right off shore. I turned on fish finding and flew around until I found a school of Deep Sea Monsterbelly. I fished that until I caught a Bloated Monsterbelly. I cut that open and got the Severed Arm I was after.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange in Dalaran. I gave her the severed arm and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g69s70c, a Siren's Tear, 2 Worthless Pieces of Orange Glass and a Waterlogged Recipe. Waterlogged Recipe starts a quest. The quest is to take it over to Christi Stockton, the wine vendor at One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop in Dalaran. She gives you 13g23s and 5 Dalaran Cooking Awards for it. All in all a pretty good day of fishing.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 3/4/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Blood Is Thicker for Brieanna. This is a pretty easy daily but has a little travel time involved.

This had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Unu'pe in the Borean Tundra. Once there I flew inland to kill a Marsh Caribou. That gets me covered in blood which is part of the quest. You can kill any of the animals the Druids protect to get covered in blood for this quest. From there it was back to the shore where I jumped in, creating a blood pool. I fished in the blood pool until I caught the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy this quest calls for. That doesn't take long as you catch them 2 or 3 at a time.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Marcia. I turned the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today it had 8g67s77c, a Glow Worm, a Tower Key, which I sold to a vendor for 16g66s66c, 2 Deviate Fish and 2 Runic Mana Potions in it. A borderline Ok day of fishing.

Daily Fishing - Dangerously Delicious 3/3/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Dangerously Delicious for Brieanna's daily cooking quest. This one is pretty easy and has the potential to add quite a bit of excitement to you fishing trip. This one is done in Wintergrasp, the combat zone.

This one had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Wintergrasp. Once there I set to fishing right next to where you land. I used to fish in another area but have just as good luck here and the flight point is right there too so it is more convenient. It didn't take me long to get the 10 Terrorfish I was after, I didn't keep track but I would say less than 25 casts, and I was on my way back to see Marcia.

I turned the 10 Terrorfish over to Marcia and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. Today it had 6g46s53c, 4 Pygmy Oil and a Velociraptor Skull in it. Hardly worth the effort of flying all the way to Wintergrasp, going into the combat zone, and fishing for 5 minutes, but you take the good with the bad and I have already gotten some good rewards from this daily.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 3/2/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Blood Is Thicker for Brieanna. Another easy one with a little travel time involved.

This one had me taking the flight path from Dalaran to Unu'pe in the Borean Tundra. Once there I flew inland until I spotted a Marsh Caribou. What you need to do for this quest is kill something the Druids protect, which will get you covered in blood. Just make sure you don't go near the Druids while you are covered in blood, they are tree huggers but not above killing someone covered in blood. Anyway, the first one I killed didn't do the trick, you have to have some good close up contact with it to get covered in blood. The second one did the trick though and I was on my way back to the shore. At the shore I jumped in the water, washing the blood off and making a blood pool. I fished in the blood pool until I caught 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy. Once I had those I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Marcia.

I turned the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble. I keep hoping to get something good and sometimes I do. Today was not one of those days. My Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g34s22c, a Glow Worm, 2 Worthless Pieces of White Glass and 3 Deviate Fish. Certainly nothing to write home about there.

Daily Fishing - The Ghostfish 3/1/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, sent Brieanna to Sholazar Basin to catch the elusive Ghostfish. The daily she gave her was The Ghostfish. This is another easy daily but not so quick, there is quite a bit of travel time involved.

As I said this had me heading to Sholazar Basin. I took the flight path out of Dalaran to Rivers Heart in Sholazar Basin, then flew up to my spot up top and a little northwest of the flight point. Once there I set right to fishing until I caught a Phantom Ghostfish. I ate that right away as it is on a timer that starts clocking as soon as you loot it, you have 60 seconds before it disappears. Eating the Phantom Ghostfish puts you into a state called Invisibility, it is kind of a surreal state, you would have to experience it to understand.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to tell Marcia that I had solved the mystery. She was pretty impressed and gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my troubles. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g2s6c, 3 Elixirs of Water Walking, a Velociraptor Skull, 4 Deviate Fish and 2 Runic Mana Potions. All pretty much junk except the Elixirs of Water Walking and the Runic Mana Potions. I do keep the Deviate Fish and make Savory Deviate Delight out of them too, I get 22-25 gold a stack for them on the auction house.

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 2/28/10

Today when Brieanna went to see what Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had for her she got Jewel Of The Sewers. This is an easy one and the only daily fishing quest you don't have to leave Dalaran for.

This had me heading down into the sewers below Dalaran, in the Underbelly, to my spot at the Black Market. I always have good luck there and there is rarely ever anyone else fishing there. Today I got the piece of Corroded Jewelry I was after in 7 casts. That only took a couple minutes and I was on my way back up to see Marcia. I traded her the piece of Corroded Jewelry for a Bag of Fishing Treasures, which today had 7g28s80c, 3 Pygmy Oil and an Unusual Compass in it. Not the best return on this one today.

Daily Fishing - Jewel of the Sewers 2/27/10

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, had Jewel Of The Sewers for Brieanna. This is a nice easy one you don't even have to leave Dalaran to complete.

This had me heading down to the Black Market in the sewers below Dalaran. I have my spot there that I always have good luck in. I got down there and started fishing, as usual there was no one around. It took me 7 casts today to get my piece of Corroded Jewelry. Brieanna's fishing skill is 450 now so she should have no more problem fishing anywhere.

Once I had the piece of Corroded Jewelry I headed back up to see Marcia. I exchanged the Piece of Corroded Jewelry for a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g59s3c, 4 Pygmy Oil, a Battered Jungle Hat and 3 Deviate Fish. Not a great haul today. I keep hoping to get a Jeweled Fishing Pole or some Eternium Fishing Line, maybe even a Strand Crawler, but no luck yet.

Kalu'ak Fishing Dreby 2/26/10

Brieanna took part in the Kalu'ak Fishing Dreby today. It was the first fishing derby any of my characters had ever been in. The objective is to catch a Blacktip Shark and return to hand it in, in Dalaran, before anyone else.

The person holding the event says "You can catch a Blacktip Shark anywhere you catch Pygmy Suckerfish". I headed over to my spot in Sholazar Basin and it took me 40 minutes to catch my Blacktip Shark. I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see the event organizer. Needless to say I wasn't the first one to hand one in, but I did get a consolation prize of a Bag of Fishing Treasures, so it wasn't for nothing.

The Bag of Fishing Treasures had 9g19s11c, 3 Pygmy Oil and a New Age Painting signed by Marcia Chase which I sold to a vendor for 25 gold. Not much of a reward for the 40 minutes I spent but it was still exciting to participate and I will probably do it again next week.

I also got Brieanna's fishing skill leveled up to 450 during the fishing derby today and that was worth it right there.
