Wranngar 5/22/09

I only did the daily cooking and fishing today and it felt good to skip all my other daily's again. The daily cooking from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome was Sewer Stew and the daily fishing from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran was Dangerously Delicious.

I took the crystal down to Crystalsong Forest then headed over to the ruins right under Dalaran to pick Crystalsong Carrots. There was no one around and it went really quick. Today I didn't remember to bring along any Chilled Meat so I had to wait until I got back to Dalaran before I could cook up my Vegetable Stew. When I got back to Dalaran I got my Chilled Meat out of the bank and cooked up my stews which I delivered to Ajay Green at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly in exchange for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag.

Gomorra's Small Spice Bag had 5 Northern Spices and 5 Old Spices in it. Not a great haul for Gom but not bad either as I have been doing a lot of cooking to make room in the meat tab in the guild bank and can always use the Northern Spices.

Wranngar's Small Spice Bag had 2 Northern Spices in it, he got screwed today.

I headed over to Wintergrasp to do the daily fishing when I got done picking Infused Mushrooms in Crystalsong Forest. I flew right to the flight point in Wintergrasp and fished right there in the Sunken Ring. The Horde controlled Wintergrasp at the time but there were none around to add any excitement to the daily fishing. I got the 10 Terrorfish I needed pretty quick, in less than 2 casts on Wrann and a little over 20 on Gom. When I had the 10 I needed I headed back and turned them over to Marcia Chase for a Bag of Fishing Treasures.

Gom's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 6g76s81c, 5 Pygmy Oil, 2 Worthless Pieces of Violet Glass, 2 Deviate Fish and 2 Runic Mana Potions. Gom made out pretty good today.

Wrann's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 8g32s14c, a Glow Worm, a Whale Statue and 3 Deviate Fish. Once again Wrann didn't make out as well.

Daily Cooking and Fishing 5/21/09

I only did the daily cooking and fishing today. I took a little break from the rest of the daily's.

I picked up the daily fishing quest from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran which was Jewel Of The Sewers. I headed down into the sewers and went right over to my spot in the Black Market to fish for the piece of Corroded Jewelry. There were a few other people there this time but it still went pretty quick. When I had my piece of Corroded Jewelry I turned it in to Marcia Chase for a Bag of Fishing Treasures.

Gomorra's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 7g92s44c, 5 Pygmy Oil, 4 Deviate Fish and a Stuffed Shark Head. I thought the Stuffed Shark Head might be worth something because that is the kind of thing they put a high vendor sell price on but I only got 1g75s for it. That was disappointing.

Wranngar made out a little better, his had 9g19s83c, a Glow Worm, 3 Deviate Fish and a Whale Statue which I sold to a vendor for 11 gold.

The daily cooking today was Convention at the Legerdemain. I picked that up from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome and headed over to One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop to get a jug of wine. Gom ran right in and found his upstairs, it took Wrann a little longer but he eventually found his downstairs. Once I had the wine jugs I needed I cooked up 4 Northern Stew and delivered it to Arille Azuregaze, the bartender at The Legerdemain in exchange for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag.

Gom's Small Spice Bag had 5 Northern Spices and 3 Baby Spice in it. Certainly nothing to write home about there.

Wrann's Small Spice Bag had 5 Northern Spices and 5 Baby Spice in it. Nothing to write home about there either.

I am still doing the daily cooking even though I have 450 cooking skill because Gom still needs recipes and Wrann needs about 65 more Dalaran Cooking Awards to get a Chef's Hat for the achievement.

Mythrara logged on for a little bit today, I hadn't seen them in awhile. I guess they were working on their Rogue on another server and got it to 80 and is now doing a lot of PvP. They were wondering why I don't PvP anymore and the reason is I just don't have the time anymore because I spend all my time doing daily's. When I take a break from the daily's I will be doing a lot of PvP. I was planning on taking July off from the daily's but it might even be sooner.

Daily's 5/20/09

I did all my daily's as usual today. The daily fishing quest from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran was Monsterbelly Appetite. I did that along with the daily cooking from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome which was Sewer Stew.

I took the crystal down to Crystalsong Forest then flew over to the ruins right under Dalaran to pick some Crystalsong Carrots for the daily cooking. That only took me a couple minutes on each. Gomorra remembered to bring along 4 Chilled Meat so he was able to cook his on the spot, Wranngar spaced out on the Chilled Meat and had to wait until he got back to Dalaran to cook his up.

I flew over to the flight point at Fordragon Hold and took public transportation over to Unu'pe to do the daily fishing. That went pretty quick on both and it wasn't long before I had my Bloated Monsterbelly on each. I headed back to Dalaran to turn in the severed arm, I retrieved from the Bloated Monsterbelly, to Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange in Dalaran and the Vegetable Stew to Ajay Green at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly.

My rewards for those were nothing out of the ordinary with the exception that Gom got Eternium Fishing Line from the daily fishing.

I did all my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on both Wrann and Gom but only did the Knights of the Ebon Blade on Gom. I am getting really sick of doing daily's and I think I am going to take July off from doing them. I will take a month and just play the game lol. All I ever do these day's in the time I have to play is daily's. I am exalted with The Sons of Hodir, Knights of the Ebon Blade and The Kalu'ak. I need to start doing daily's for the Oracles but will probably wait awhile before I start doing that. I should be pretty close to my gold goal by July which is the reason I have been doing all these dailys.

Daily's

I did a variety of daily's over the past week or so, the same stuff I usually do. There has been nothing out of the ordinary as far as rewards go.

Gomorra made his first 22 slot bag the other day, that gave him 2 more slots above the 20 slot bag it replaced. I also took out his Leatherworking bag and put another 20 slot bag in it's place. I really didn't need the Leatherworking bag on him as he is only a skinner, not a Leatherworker. That gave Gom a lot more slots, he went from 28 slots free on a good day to around 50 slots free on a good day.

Yesterday the daily fishing quest in Dalaran was Dangerously Delicious. I flew into Wintergrasp on Gom and got my 10 Terrorfish in about 5 minutes without any problem whatsoever. Later when I went back on Wranngar there were Horde right where you land in Wintergrasp. Evidently they figured, even though they lost the battle, they would get some easy kills off some people trying to fish. They should have just went home. After we slaughtered them we continued with our fishing with the ocassional interruption when one of the Horde, who just didn't seem to get it, would come over for some fun. We had some fun alright but I don't think he did lol.

Daily Fishing Quest - Northrend

The daily fishing quest from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran was Dangerously Delicious today. For this one you need to go into Wintergrasp and catch 10 Terrorfish. You are flagged for PvP (Player versus Player) the whole time you are in Wintergrasp.

I stuck to my original plan on Gomorra and took the flightpath to Fordragon Hold then flew over to the southeast corner of Wintergrasp where I got my 10 Terrorfish in less than 5 minutes. Instead of hearthing I decided to go see if I could find the flight path in Wintergrasp. I have it on Wranngar from fighting in there but have never fought in there on Gom. It took me a few minutes but I found it and flew back to Dalaran to turn in. We were in control of Wintergrasp at that time. I turned it in but didn't get anything great in my Bag of Fishing Treasures.

When it was time for Wranngar to do it I decided to fly right to the flight path in Wintergrasp and try fishing in the water right there. When I got there Wintergrasp was contested which means the Horde and Alliance were fighting over it. There were a lot of other people there fishing too but a lot of room so not really crowded. Around the time I got my 5th Terrorfish the Horde took control of Wintergrasp. I caught the last 5 I needed while the Horde controlled Wintergrasp, then flew back to Dalaran and turned in. Wrann didn't get anything worth mentioning in his Bag of Fishing Treasures either.

I would recommend, if you have the flight path, that you just fly right there and fish, if not, fly to Fordragon Hold and then fly over to the southeast corner of Wintergrasp to fish, then you can hearth out or go find the flight path. I didn't get the coords of the flight path but it is on the eastern side right near the GY.

Sealed Vial of Poison 5/14/09

I grabbed the daily fishing as soon as I logged on today. The one Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran had for me today was Blood Is Thicker.

I headed over to Unu'pe, then flew inland and killed a Marsh Caribou so I could get covered in blood. I headed back to the shore and jumped in the water to make a blood pool. Once I had that I fished it until I had my 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy, then I headed back to Dalaran and turned them in.

Wranngar's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 9g76s40c, 3 Elixirs of Water Walking and a Sealed Vial of Poison. The Sealed Vial of Poison starts a quest which is to go down into the sewers and give it to Alchemist Cinesra. That's it, quest over. It pays 13g23s and only takes a second :). Not a bad haul for Wrann today.

Gomorra's Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g42s57c, 3 Pygmy Oil and 4 Solid Gold Coins. Gom didn't make out as well.

I did all my daily's for The Sons of Hodir and the Knights of the Ebon Blade after that. These pay pretty well and at the end of it all I was able to send 400g to the bank. My gold reserves are finally starting to get replenished.

Glacial Bag

I finally decided to get off my butt and level Gomorra's Tailoring to 445 so I could buy Pattern: Glacial Bag from The Sons of Hodir. This is a pattern for a 22 slot bag. You have to be exalted to buy the pattern from them and 445 Tailoring skill to learn it. It was only 4 gold to buy it but I hadn't yet because my Tailoring was only 442. I had to make 2 pairs of Ebonweave Gloves and a 20 slot bag to get the 3 points I needed. Once I had my Tailoring to 445 I flew over to The Sons of Hodir and picked it up. Unfortunately I had to use 8 pieces of my Ebonweave to make the gloves, which I am not too happy about, but I can make 2 more pieces in a couple days. If I hadn't used the Ebonweave I could have made Gomorra's first (22 slot) Glacial Bag tonight.

I also picked up Pattern: Abyssal Bag from the Knights of the Ebon Blade tonight. This is a 32 slot soul bag for Warlocks. I was looking at Tailoring on Thottbot the other day and saw a few patterns I could get but didn't have yet for some reason. This was one of them, it requires revered with the Knights of the Ebon Blade to purchase. It cost me 4 gold to buy this one. You need to have 435 Tailoring to learn this pattern.

I got Pattern: Emerald Bag from The Kalu'ak tonight too lol. Yeah I was really slacking on Gomorra. You must be revered with The Kalu'ak to purchase this and the cost is 4 gold. I got all the Leatherworking patterns on Wranngar as soon as they were available but didn't bother on Gomorra for some reason, probably sick of it all by the second time around. Anyway this is a 32 slot Herb bag, you need to have 435 Tailoring to learn this pattern.

Brieanna 5/11/09

I worked a little on my 36 hunter, Brieanna, tonight. I bet a lot of you didn't even know I had a hunter. I wouldn't be surprised, I haven't played her in quite a while. The first thing I did was get her upgraded to 20 slot bags and a 28 slot Leatherworking bag. Now that she has a little room I can quest and breath easy. I got bank slots for the 16 slot bags she used to have. You can never have too many bank slots.

I noticed she was thrown out of the guild she was in, I don't even remember the name of it lol. I will get her into BlackMoor Coven the next time Salintu is on.

I did a little bit of questing in Stranglethorn Vale. Well, not so much questing as getting used to playing her again. My Wolf was in a good mood until he realized I had thrown out all his food when I was re-arranging my bags, changed his whole outlook. He got to eat buff food after that so he got over it. I will try to play this one a little more often and see if I can get her leveled up.

I still have my Deathknight, Wrangar, to level too but he is in a part of Blades Edge Mountains that I am not really too fond of questing in. I will need to level him there before I can move on to Netherstorm.

Daily's 5/11/09

Today I was able to do the daily cooking and fishing at the same time. Kind of. The daily cooking today, from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome, was Sewer Stew.

I took the portal or crystal or whatever you call it that you take down to Crystalsong Forest, then headed over and picked my Crystalsong Carrots. I made sure I grabbed 4 Chilled Meat from the guild bank before I left so I was able to make a fire and cook up my Vegetable Stew when I had my 4 carrots on Wranngar and Gomorra.

From there I headed over to Unu'pe to do the daily fishing quest I picked up from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran. Today it was Monsterbelly Appetite. I flew out to the icebergs and found a school of Monsterbelly to fish. I got my Bloated Monsterbelly on the first cast on Wranngar and the second cast on Gomorra.

I headed back to Dalaran to deliver my Vegetable Stew to Ajay Green at the Cantrips and Crows Tavern in the Underbelly and the Severed Arm to Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange in Dalaran where she is going to attempt to reunite it with it's owner. The rewards for these were the usual, nothing special or out of the ordinary.

I did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir after that. I did them on both Wranngar and Gomorra. These go pretty quick, about a half hour on each, and pay pretty good. I get some good leather and meat from them too so I am not complaining at all. If you are interested in how to start doing the daily's for The Sons of Hodir check out this earlier post, Unlocking The Sons of Hodir Daily's.

I did all my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade tonight. I picked up Leave Our Mark, Vile Like Fire! and Shoot 'Em Up from the Shadow Vault and From Their Corpses, Rise! and No Fly Zone from Death's Rise. I already had Intelligence Gathering that I was working on. I completed them all on both today for around 80 gold each. I am starting to build up my gold reserves after spending 8,000 gold on the Reins of the Grand Ice Mammoth.

Dangerously Delicious

I finally got Dangerously Delicious from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, for the daily fishing today. This one is by far the most dangerous of the daily fishing quests. For this quest you need to catch 10 Terrorfish and it seems the only place they can be found is in Wintergrasp, the Northrend PvP area.

I found a great spot that is set apart from the battleground area even though you get flagged as soon as you enter. You're in Wintergrasp, there's not much you can do about that, but I didn't see one single person while I was there. Wranngar can hold his own but it has been a looong time since I did any PvP on Gomorra.

I took the flight path to Fordragon Hold in Dragonblight. From there I flew southwest to the southeast corner of Wintergrasp. I flew over the Burning Cauldron and got dismounted for being in a no-fly zone but you get a parachute so it's not too bad. You want to try to land on the big piece of ice floating in the middle of the lake you are heading to. I missed on both Wranngar and Gomorra and ended up in the water but you should be able to do it :).

Once I got there I picked a spot right at the southeast end of the lake (77,70) and started fishing. From what I read you want to use a +100 lure even at maximum fishing. I didn't have any problem on Gom with his 422 fishing skill, +30 pole, +3 fishing line and +100 lure. That gave him a total of 555 fishing skill. It took me about 5 minutes on each to catch my 10 Terrorfish. Once I had my 10 Terrorfish I hearthed back to Dalaran and turned them in to Marcia Chase. The reward for this quest is a Bag of Fishing Treasures which can contain anything from pets to epic items to junk and anything in between.

So I had good luck in the southeast corner of Wintergrasp and got in and out on both without any PvP resistance. I did this during a time when we were in control of Wintergrasp, but where I was fishing I don't think it would have mattered if the Horde controlled it or even if we were in battle.

Update: I have had just as good luck flying into the Alliance flight point in Wintergrasp and fishing in the Sunken Ring right there. If you have the flight point it will be quicker and easier to just fly in, fish there, and fly out.

This was the last of the 5 daily fishing quests Marcia Chase had for me to do so when I turned these in on Gom and Wrann they both got the achievement Chasing Marcia.

Good Luck :)

Daily Cooking 5/9/09

I did ALL my daily's today. I started with the daily cooking from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome. It was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf which had me heading down into the sewers to pick some Infused Mushrooms.

That went pretty quick on Gomorra, it didn't seem like anyone was doing it but it took a bit longer on Wranngar. When I finally had the 4 Infused Mushrooms I needed on each I cooked them up with some Chilled Meat to get my Meatloaf's. You do that by right clicking on the provided meatloaf pan while you are near a fire with all the mats in your inventory.

I delivered those to Orton Bennet upstairs at Curiosities and Moore. He gave Gomorra 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices in it. Not the best haul for Gom. Wranngar got 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and 4 Northern Spices. Not a great haul for him either. I still haven't spent Gom's awards he's been stockpiling.

I did all my daily's for the The Sons of Hodir. Wrann stopped off on at K3 his way there and did Overstock, a quick easy quest that gets you no rep with anyone but only takes a couple minutes and pays around 13 gold. For The Sons of Hodir I did Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter, Feeding Arngrim and Thrusting Hodir's Spear. These go pretty quick and pay around 66 gold plus leather and meat if you are a skinner and cook. I am exalted with The Sons of Hodir on both Wrann and Gom so I am just doing these for the gold.

I did all my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade on both after that except for Intelligence Gathering, I didn't hand that one in again today. I did complete and hand in Leave Our Mark, Vile Like Fire!, Shoot 'Em Up, From Their Corpses, Rise! and No Fly Zone. Those 5 pay around 66 gold and around 80 gold when I turn in Intelligence Gathering. These don't take too long to do and I usually make between 10 and 15 gold on the garbage and greens that drop. Wrann is exalted with the Knights of the Ebon Blade but Gom is only revered so he is doing them for both the gold and rep.

I did some fishing on Gom after that. I was fishing schools for Musselback Sculpin in Borean Tundra. I ended up getting 37 before I called it quits. I also got 28 Glacial Salmon in Grizzly Hills. I got Gom's fishing skill to 422, only 28 more to go :). I was fishing for mats to cook up some Recipe: Poached Northern Sculpin and Recipe: Firecracker Salmon which I put in the guild bank to restock.

Daily's 5/8/09

I did a bunch of my daily's tonight. I skipped the cooking again as it was Cheese for Glowergold and I just didn't feel like dealing with trying to collect the wine glasses.

The daily fishing quest from Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran was Jewel Of The Sewers. I headed down to the Black Market in the sewers under Dalaran to catch my piece of Corroded Jewelry. Wranngar got his piece of Corroded Jewelry on his 12th cast while Gomorra got his on his 10th cast. I turned these back in to Marcia and she gave each of them a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Gomorra's had 9g3s64c, 5 Pygmy Oil, a Tower Key (which I sold to a vendor for 16g66s66c) and 3 Deviate Fish. Not a great haul by any means but still some great stuff to get from this daily, wait until you see what Wrann got. Wranngar got 6g46s10c, a Glow Worm, 3 Solid Gold Coins, 2 Runic Mana Potions and a Bold Stormjewel. A Bold Stormjewel is an epic gem that goes for around 750 gold on the auction house. A great haul for Wrann today.

I did all my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade on both Gomorra and Wranngar. I did, and turned, in Leave Our Mark, Vile Like Fire!, Shoot 'Em Up, From Their Corpses, Rise! and No Fly Zone. I got a couple more documents towards Intelligence Gathering too. These go pretty quick and pay around 80 gold.

I only did my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on Gomorra. When I went to do them on Wranngar there were just way too many people there so I decided to skip it. On Gomorra I did Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter and Feeding Arngrim. These are some more quests that go pretty quick and I get some meat and leather out of the deal too.

Northrend Daily's 5/7/09

I did some, but not all, of my daily's tonight. I skipped the daily cooking on both, it was Cheese for Glowergold and I just didn't feel like dealing with that.

I did all my daily's for The Sons of Hodir on Gomorra tonight. I did Blowing Hodir's Horn, Hot and Cold, Polishing the Helm, Spy Hunter, Feeding Arngrim and Thrusting Hodir's Spear. These take me about a half hour and pay some pretty good gold. I am exalted with The Sons of Hodir so I don't get rep anymore. I skipped these daily's on Wranngar tonight because I just ran out of time.

I did my daily's for the Knights of the Ebon Blade on both tonight. I did, and turned in, Leave Our Mark, Vile Like Fire!, Shoot 'Em Up, From Their Corpses, Rise! and No Fly Zone. I did get a few documents towards Intelligence Gathering while I was at it, I will turn that in eventually when I get the 5 I need.

The daily fishing quest in Dalaran was The Ghostfish so I headed over to the flight point at Rivers Heart in Sholazar Basin then flew up to the top of the cliff to the north and stood on my log at 49,55. I guess it is more of a root than a log, a big root sticking out into the water. I got my Phantom Ghostfish on the 4th cast on Gomorra and the 18th cast on Wranngar, Wranngar was having a hard time of it. I ate my Phantom Ghostfish as soon as I got it because it starts clocking as soon as you loot it and you only have 60 seconds before it disappears.

When you eat the Phantom Ghostfish you get a buff that puts you into a state called Invisibility. It lasts for 15 seconds or until you break it by doing anything. If you have ever seen The Lord of the Rings, this is like when Frodo puts on the ring, it looks just like that.
