Daily Cooking - Mustard Dogs 11/18/09

The daily cooking was Mustard Dogs! today and the daily fishing was The Ghostfish again for the 5th day in a row. Way to give some variety Blizzard..... I did the cooking and skipped the fishing. People were complaining about the daily heroic dungeon repeating again too.

The cooking had me running around Dalaran picking Wild Mustard. It didn't take me long to get the 4 I needed and I was off to the bank to grab some Rhino Meat to make the Rhino Dogs. When I had those cooked I combined them with the Wild Mustard to make a Mustard Dog Basket!. I took that to Archmage Pentarus (68,41) at Krasus' Landing and exchanged it for 9g93s, 2 Dalaran Cooking Awards and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices, 5 Old Spices and another Dalaran Cooking Award. A pretty good haul today.

I went fishing after that, but not for the daily, I went for Musselback Sculpin because I was running low on Poached Northern Sculpin. That is some good stuff, +80 Attack Power and +40 Stamina. I caught a little over 3 stacks, about 65, in 15 minutes or so. I go in Borean Tundra where the schools are. You get 3 or 4 from each school. I got some crates too, but nothing good came out of them. I have enough buff food to last me awhile now anyway.

I have been having a lot of people whisper me trying to sell me gold lately. Usually while I am in the battlegrounds, but then again I have been spending a lot of time in the battlegrounds lately. I have been getting 4 or 5 a day and you can't just right click on their name and report spam because they are whispering you and that is not an option. More Blizzard fail.....

Mustard Dogs!

Today's daily cooking quest in Dalaran was Mustard Dogs!. As usual I did this on both Wranngar and Gomorra as soon as I got on. 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.

This isn't a difficult quest but it can take awhile to get the 4 pieces of Wild Mustard you need if everyone is trying to do it at once, which usually seems to be the case. The Wild Mustard can be found growing in any of the grassy areas around Dalaran. They are small, yellow and, I think, hard to see. They are definitely hard to target. One area that seems to get overlooked is the grassy area around the flight point at Krasus' Landing. I usually have good luck there getting one or two. Another place is that little park place with the benches in the center of town. I also have good luck over in the corner by the Magus Commerce Exchange where you can go down into the Underbelly.

Once you have your 4 pieces of Wild Mustard you will need to combine them with 4 Rhino Dogs to make a Mustard Dog Basket!. You do this by right clicking on the supplied Empty Picnic Basket when you have the 4 Rhino Dogs and 4 Wild Mustard in your inventory. Once you have your Mustard Dog Basket in hand you can deliver it to Archmage Pentarus at Krasus' Landing for 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%)

Remember to keep some Rhino Meat and Chilled Meat on hand, it makes these daily's go so much quicker.

Good Luck :)
