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.

Northrend Daily's 4/18/09

The first thing I usually do when I log on is the daily cooking in Dalaran on both Wranngar and Gomorra. Today was no exception. The daily today was Sewer Stew so I was off to Crystalsong Forest to pick some Crystalsong Carrots. These are located right under Dalaran in Crystalsong Forest. You can't miss them, they look like giant carrots sticking out of the ground. If you are level 75 or higher, and you would have to be to be doing the daily cooking, you probably have seen them in Grizzly Hills when you did a quest to capture horses. They look just like those. Anyway I got the 4 I needed on both and cooked them up with some Chilled Meat to make Vegetable Stew. I delivered that to my Innkeeper down in the sewers and he gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices in it. Yeah, Gomorra got screwed on this one today. Wranngar got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 2 Northern Spices and 4 Old Spices in it, he wasn't any happier.

I did some fishing tonight on Gomorra and got his fishing up to 390 :). I needed to catch some Imperial Manta Ray so I could cook up the recipe Gomorra got yesterday, Recipe: Imperial Manta Steak. I also decided to catch some Glacial Salmon too so I could cook up some Firecracker Salmon. I ended up with a lot of buff food and 450 cooking skill :). Gomorra still has a lot of recipes to get and learn but it is a downhill battle now lol.

I did all my Northrend daily's on Gomorra tonight, The Sons of Hodir and the Knights of the Ebon Blade, but I didn't do them on Wranngar because I wanted to get some fishing done on Gomorra.

I did a couple of Alterac Valley battles on Wranngar, trying to get the daily battleground done, but we lost both. It was pretty sad. The first battle I was in I got in about 3/4 of the way through. It was pretty much a turtle at that point but I headed out anyway and ended up at Galv. There was me, a Warlock and a Priest there taking on Galv. It started off with the Lock using his Void Walker to tank him but I took over when the Void lost aggro and Glav went after the Lock. While tanking Glav I also killed a Paladin and Hunter that showed up. They were very poorly geared as were all the other Horde I encountered which made the turtle and loss even sadder. I would have easily had Galv down if Horde didn't keep showing up but eventually between the Priest running out of Mana and the Horde and Galv beating up on me I died. As we had no forward graveyards I rezzed in Dun Baldar and spent the rest of the battle farming kills. In the second battle pretty much everyone who wasn't AFK went right to Dun Baldar for the Turtle. Right from the cave to Dun Baldar..... This tells you the quality of the players these days. The few of us that didn't turtle at the start made it all the way to Forstwolf Keep taking IBGY and Frostwolf Graveyard on the way. No one got the towers. The Horde killed Vann just as we were entering Frostwolf Keep. I gave up after that, it was obvious we would not be winning an AV tonight with the quality of players on hand.

I did a couple Eye of the Storm battles on Wranngar after the Alterac Valley fiasco, one win, one loss. I got in really late in the first battle which we were losing to a 4 cap. At least it was over fast. In the second battle we did a lot better though not though any smart playing. BET was left unguarded most of the battle, I was the only one guarding Dranei Ruins, and everyone seemed to think the flag was more important than defending the towers. One thing I got a real laugh about was this Rogue who kept coming to DR. I killed him 3 times and the 3rd time I killed him he was carrying the flag LMAO. I'm not sure why he ran right to me with the flag but I killed him and capped it :). The other 2 times he sapped me, which I removed with my Insignia of the Alliance, and then put Farie Fire on him so he couldn't stealth. Naturally he dispelled it so I put it on him again. He can only dispel it once so the second time he was screwed. A Rogue that can't stealth is a dead Rogue. Stealthing and running way is all they got lol. He was a very easy kill, even for a Rogue, obviously very poorly geared.

Northrend Daily's 4/17/09

I did most of my daily's on Wranngar and Gomorra today. The first one I did was the daily cooking. It was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf so I was off to the sewers in search of the elusive Infused Mushroom. It didn't take me too too long to get the 4 I needed on each so I cooked them up with some Chilled Meat to make a couple Infused Mushroom Meatloafs. Once I had those I delivered them to Orton Bennet at Curiosities and Moore. He gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 2 Northern Spices and 4 Old Spices in it. Wranngar got a Dalaran Cooking Award, 9g93s and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices and 3 Baby Spice in it. Not really a great haul on either today.

I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on both after that. Those don't take me too long and make me some decent gold. I stopped off at the Storm Peaks on Wranngar on the way there to do Overstock. Some people don't think this quest is worth it but 13 gold for a couple minutes work seems worth it to me. Both Gomorra and Wranngar are doing Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim for The Sons of Hodir. Neither one of them are doing Thrusting Hodir's Spear because I decided, after a couple tries, that it just isn't worth it. Wranngar became exalted with them a couple days ago and now he's just doing them for the gold. Gomorra is revered with them.

I did my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade on Gomorra after that. I skipped them on Wranngar because I just didn't have enough time and he is already exalted so he is only doing them for the gold. Gomorra only does a couple of them so it goes pretty quick. He does Leave Our Mark and Vile Like Fire!. Those two take him less than 10 minutes to complete.

The Sons of Hodir - Exalted

The Sons of Hodir Exalted 4/16/09

I didn't have a whole lot of time tonight so I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on Wranngar. He was so close to becoming exalted all I needed to do was one more night. I actually handed in all my quests then became exalted when I handed in my relics. It was close. Wranngar is not really the one that needed to become exalted with them, Gomorra is because he needs Pattern: Glacial Bag, a 22 slot bag, for his Tailoring. I got Greater Inscription of the Axe for Wranngar, and this opens up the door to get the Reins of the Ice Mammoth for 800 gold and Reins of the Grand Ice Mammoth for 8,000 gold. Naturally I did Overstock on my way to do my daily's for The Sons of Hodir, this is a really fast, really easy quest that pays around 13 gold. I would be crazy to skip it. I was reading up on this quest and seeing what people had to say on Thottbot and some people were saying "Why would anyone waste their time on this, there is no rep?". I'll tell you why I waste my time on it, it is a really fast, really easy quest that pays around 13 gold. What more reason do I need?

I did have enough time to do the daily cooking in Dalaran on both characters. Today it was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf so I was off to the sewers to pick some Infused Mushrooms. It didn't take too long before I was cooking them up with some Chilled Meat to make my meatloaf's. I delivered those to Orton Bennet at Curiosities and Moore and he gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices and 5 Old Spices in it. Wranngar got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 2 Northern Spices in it. I'm not sure what Orton has against Wranngar but he seems to like Gomorra more. Once again I saved my award on Wranngar towards the purchase of a Chef's Hat for the cooking achievement. 100 Dalaran Cooking Awards to get that :(. That's a lot of Northern Spices.

Northrend 4/15/09

I got Wranngar and Gomorra all spec'd up again tonight. I hate it when they refund all your points, it seems like when I finally get them they way I like them they refund all your points. Anyway they are both spec'd again and life goes on.

I did the daily cooking first thing tonight. It was Sewer Stew so I headed down to Crystalsong Forest to pick some Crystalsong Carrots. I needed 4 on each. Once I had those I grabbed some Chilled Meat out of the guild bank, cooked up some Vegetable Stew and delivered it to my innkeeper, Ajay Green at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly. He gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 2 Northern Spices in it. Hardly worth getting out of bed for Gomorra. Wranngar got a Dalaran Cooking Award, a Small Spice Bag with 5 Northern Spices and 4 Old Spices in it and 9g93s. A much better day for him than Gomorra. For a change I didn't spend my award on more Northern Spices, I hung onto it instead. They now have a chef hat you can buy for 100 awards. I saw the price and decided not to get it until I saw they made it part of the cooking achievements. I want to get all the cooking achievements done so I will have to buy one now...

I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on both tonight. They are both doing all the same quests now that Gomorra is revered with them. I do them on one then I go back and do them on the other, it's not boring, really..... anyway I did them all, Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim. These take me 25-30 minutes on each, and I make about 66 gold on each, so it's not too bad. Wranngar also did Overstock in the Storm Peaks on his way there, a quick easy quest that pays around 13 gold.

I did my Knights of the Ebon Blade daily's after that, Gomorra is doing Leave Our Mark and Vile Like Fire! while Wranngar does those 2 plus From Their Corpses, Rise!, No Fly Zone, Shoot 'Em Up and Intelligence Gathering. I actually got the last documents I needed for Intelligence Gathering and turned that in tonight too. Wranngar is exalted with them but Gomorra is only friendly. I will look around and see if there are any more quests I can do for them on Gomorra to get more rep.

I made a couple pieces of cloth on Gomorra tonight, my cooldown was up on Ebonweave and Moonshroud so I made 2 pieces of Ebonweave and one piece of Moonshroud. I can make 2 pieces of Ebonweave at a time because I am a Shadow Tailor.

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.

Manual: Heavy Frostweave Bandage 4/13/09

Gomorra finally had Manual: Heavy Frostweave Bandage drop for him tonight. I had been wondering if it would ever drop, then after it did I did some thinking which I am prone to do on occasion. I leveled Gomorra's First Aid skill to 399 yesterday (In an attempt to get to 400) so I could use Heavy Frostweave Bandages, even if I couldn't make them, and I wondered if that had anything to do with it finally dropping. I went to Thottbot and did some reading and the general opinion seems to be that you have to have First Aid Skill of 390 or higher to get it to drop. That makes sense as I had been killing these same mobs for weeks without it dropping. I have heard people say that it only drops off dungeon mobs but I knew that wasn't true because it dropped for Wranngar outside a dungeon, in Zul'Drak around level 74, but he had 400 First Aid Skill at the time.

From what everyone is saying, if you have 390, or higher, First Aid Skill and you go to Rageclaw Den around 33,64, which is South of Light's Breach in Zul'drak, there is a pretty high drop rate for it, around 20%. This is a BoP book so the only way you are going to get it is if it drops for you. Because I now have it on both my characters that are in Northrend I will have to wait until I get my Deathknight Wrangar out there to see if the drop rate is really that high. If anyone heads out there after reading this post and gets it to drop, or has had it drop there, let us know how it worked out for you.

Infused Mushroom Meatloaf 4/13/09

Today's daily cooking in Dalaran was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf. This is a pretty easy quest any way you look at it. How long it takes is dependent on how many people are trying to do it at the same time. All you have to do is head down into the sewers (Underbelly) and pick 4 Infused Mushrooms. This can go really fast if no one to a couple people are doing it, it can take quite awhile if everyone is trying to do it. Today there weren't too many people trying to do it so it went pretty quick. I picked my Infused Mushroom's, cooked them up with a couple Chilled Meat and delivered my Meatloaf's to Orton Bennet at Curiosities and Moore. He gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 4 Northern Spices in it. Not a bad return for Gomorra. Wranngar got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a with 3 Small Spice BagNorthern Spices in it. Not a bad return for Wranngar either. As usual I spent Wranngar's award on Northern Spices for the guild bank.

Gomorra went and saw The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath, to see what he had today, but all he had for me was Manalicious which I already did. I am only doing these Shattrath daily cooking quests for the achievement, Kickin' It Up a Notch. There are 4 of them, I might have mistakenly reported 5 earlier, and I have 2 done. The sad part is I did this daily for over a year and didn't get any credit at all for it... I also have to cook all the Outlands recipes that I have cooked so many times before because I don't have credit for any of those either.

The Sons of Hodir daily's went pretty quick on both today. Of course on my way there on Wranngar I stopped off at K3 in the Storm Peaks and did Overstock. This is an easy daily that only takes a few minutes and pays around 13 gold. I try to never skip it. I need to doa couple more quests there before I can start doing it on Gomorra. I did all my usual daily's for The Sons of Hodir on Gomorra and Wranngar, Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm and Spy Hunter plus Feeding Arngrim on Wranngar. Gomorra became revered today, so tomorrow he will also start doing Feeding Arngrim. I am starting to make some pretty good gold every day off daily's.

My daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade went pretty quick today too, all in all it was a pretty quick day for daily's. Of couse I am only doing 2 on Gomorra, Leave Our Mark and Vile Like Fire!. Wranngar does those plus From Their Corpses, Rise!, No Fly Zone, Shoot 'Em Up and Intelligence Gathering. I still didn't have enough Onslaught Intel Documents to turn in Intelligence Gathering today, I usually turn this one in every 5 days to a week or so. I don't go out of my way to get these documents because they can take as long to get as it takes to do the other 2 quests combined.

Deathknight 4/12/09

I worked on my Deathknight, Wrangar, for a little while today. I hadn't touched him in a couple months at least but I have been hearing everyone QQing about how overpowered Deathknights are. The first thing I did when I got on was Torgos!. I remember having a difficult time on this with Gomorra with another person along but I solo'd it with ease on Wrangar. I guess I have to say Deathknight's are a little overpowered. I came through it with 80% of my health intact. The funny part is I could barely play it after a couple months away from it, I didn't even remember what spells did what lol. I set up all my characters the same way, I put the spells I use most (spam) in my bottom left toolbar from left to right so that's how I was playing it. It all came back to me after awhile. Wrangar is level 66 now so I am working on getting him to 68 so I can head to Northernd. Once you get to Northrend the last 12 levels go pretty quick. There are a lot of quests there and a lot of XP to be earned from each quest. On Wranngar and Gomorra I usually made around 200-300 gold a day just questing. Plus Wrangar is also a skinner with 433 skinning skill so he is ready to skin in Northrend. Wranngar will appreciate that :). I did a few more quests in Blades Edge Mountains after that and got a couple bars. I will try to work on him a little each day after I get my daily's done on Wranngar and Gomorra.

Northrend 4/12/09

I was really busy today. I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on Wranngar before they rolled over this morning and then did them again after they rolled over. It was a pretty good gold making day between Wranngar and Gomorra. I did Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim on Wranngar this morning, then after they rolled over I did them again, then did Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm and Spy Hunter on Gomorra. Gomorra is 9967/12000 honored with The Sons of Hodir and Wranngar is 15675/21000 revered with them. Wranngar should have been exalted with them by now but I took some time off doing most of his daily's so I could spend more time leveling Gomorra. Now that they are both 80 I will be doing all my daily's every day. These daily quests are going faster and faster every day. The only one I really don't like is Hot and Cold. The reason I don't like this one is, when you throw your Essence of Ice on the Smoldering Scraps at Fjorn's Anvil anyone can loot it and most days someone does. I finally got so sick and tired of going back and farming more Essence of Ice I decided I would just do what everyone else is doing, loot someone else's if someone takes one of mine. Now I go in there with 5 Essence of Ice and I come out with 5 Frozen Iron Scraps. No more going back to farm one or two more. I don't like doing it but, as I said, I am sick of having to go farm more because other people rip mine off. This is one I will probably drop when I am exalted.

The daily cooking quest in Dalaran was Sewer Stew today so I flew down to Crystalsong Forest to pick some Crystalsong Carrots. While I was picking them on Gomorra I didn't see anyone else there so I got the 4 I needed really fast. When I flew down on Wranngar there was one other person there picking and there was more than enough for 2 so it went fast for him as well. You can find these in Crystalsong Forest around 31,42. If you don't have coordinates they are loacted right under Dalaran. You can find your carrots by first teleporting down, then running due east towards the river. When I got back to Dalaran I grabbed 4 pieces of Chilled Meat for each from the guild bank and cooked up my Vegetable Stew. I delivered them to Ajay Green at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly. He gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 5 Northern Spices in it. Not a bad return for him. Wranngar got a Dalaran Cooking Award, a Small Spice Bag with 5 Northern Spices and another Dalaran Cooking Award in it plus 9g93s. A pretty good return for him today. I spent Wranngar's 2 awards on 20 more Northern Spices and now have 569 in the bank. I need to start cooking, I am becoming overstocked with meat. I got a lot of meat today when I was farming leather on Wranngar.

Gomorra also went and saw The Rokk, (61,15) in Shattrath and picked up his daily cooking. For some reason he does not have credit for doing any of them in the achievements and he is going to need to do them to get his Hail to the Chef achievement and Chef title. Yesterday's was Manalicious which requires you to go to Netherstorm and pick Mana Berries but today's was Revenge is Tasty so I was on my way to Skettis. Once I got there I had to fly around and get a Monstrous Kaliri to attack me. Once I had aggro I landed and killed him. I got my Giant Kaliri Wing on the first kill. I headed back to Shattrath and cooked it up with some Warp Burgers to make Kaliri Stew. I handed that back in to The Rokk and picked the barrel of fish but don't remember what I got lol. It was nothing too exciting but I need the meat from this quest because I also don't have credit for cooking any outlands recipes on Gomorra and I need to cook them all for the achievement. I have 2 of the Shattrath daily cooking quests done now, 3 more to go.

I did my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade after that. I did them on both Wranngar and Gomorra but Wranngar does a lot more of them. Gomorra is friendly with them and I think he will be able to pick up the rest when he is honored. Wranngar does From Their Corpses, Rise!, No Fly Zone, Leave Our Mark, Shoot 'Em Up, Vile Like Fire! and Intelligence Gathering while Gomorra is only doing Leave Our Mark and Vile Like Fire. I am still pulling some pretty good gold out of these dailys. These are pretty easy quests. Intelligence Gathering, From Their Corpese, Rise! and No Fly Zone are done in Onslaught Harbor while Leave Our Mark, Vile Like Fire and Shoot 'Em Up is done in Jotunheim. I usually get all the quests first, then go to Onslaught Harbor and hit Jotunheim on the way back after I turn in the Onslaught Harbor daily's at Death's Rise where you pick them up.

Leatherworking 4/12/09

I worked on Wranngar's Leatherworking some tonight. I got him up to level 441, only 9 more to go. I was hoping to make myself some Epic pants but there were no patterns available. I did make a pair of Giantmaim Legguards which I sent to Salintu along with a Frosthide Leg Armor kit to put on them. I couldn't attach the Frosthide Leg Armor because it causes the item to become soulbound. Being a Druid I can't wear Mail. Salintu reached 80 the other day on her first character :). I know how it feels to finally be done leveling, it is a gooood feeling. She beat me on Gomorra by 2 days.

The Horde attacked Ironforge again tonight trying to kill the king. I got there just in time and got 5 killing blows in. There weren't too many left and the one's that were left weren't feeling so hot :). There were a couple stragglers that came in after we cleaned out the kings room so we killed them too. A good time was had by everyone except the Horde. Ironforge is a dark place, it is a city carved into a mountain and that's why the picture is so dark. The king came through it unharmed.
