The Kalu'ak 03/01/09

I got on Wranngar today and did my daily quests for The Kalu'ak first. I wanted to become exalted with them so I could buy the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole. I did my first 2 quests and became exalted so when I went to the 3rd quest I talked to the quartermaster there and got my Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole for around 106 gold. I also picked up a Nurtured Penguin Egg for 10 gold. I did the last daily for The Kalu'ak and headed back to Dalaran to get some Spun Truesilver Fishing Line I had in the bank to put on my new fishing pole. With that installed I decided to fish up the ingredients for some Recipe: Fish Feast, 20 of them to be exact. For that I needed 40 Glacial Salmon, 40 Musselback Sculpin and 40 Nettlefish plus 20 Northern Spices. There is a lot that goes into making these, 120 fish and 20 Northern Spices for a stack of 20. I fished for awhile, I have spots where I go to fish schools of the fish I need and by the time I was done I ended up catching:

108 Pygmy Suckerfish
61 Musselback Sculpin
43 Nettlefish
43 Glacial Salmon
9 Frostweave Cloth
4 Barrelhead Goby
4 Bonescale Snapper

Quite a variety of stuff. I cooked up my 20 Fish Feast and had a little left over to stock the guild bank. I am pretty happy I finally got the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole.

I did the daily cooking today which was Infused Mushroom Meatloaf again. I went down into the Underbelly and got my 4 Infused Mushrooms fast then ran over to the bank and got a couple of chilled meat to cook them up with. I made my Infused Mushroom Meatloaf and delivered it in exchange for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag. I hit the jackpot today when I opened my Small Spice Bag, it had 4 Northern Spices, 5 Old Spices, 5 Baby Spice and another Dalaran Cooking Award. I used both my awards to buy Northern Spices which got me 20. I am pretty stocked up on them now, I have 92.

I did my Knights of the Ebon Blade daily's today. I flew over to Onslaught Harbor and did From Their Corpses, Rise!, No Fly Zone and Intelligence Gathering then turned them in and flew over and did Leave Our Mark, Shoot 'Em Up and Vile Like Fire!. After I turned these in I headed over to The Stormpeaks and did Overstock. A really fast and easy quest that gets you around 13 gold for a couple minutes and no equipment damage.

I got back on a little later and did some more fishing and some battlegrounds. I was fishing in the Underbelly trying to do the achievement I Smell A Giant Rat. I fish on and off between battlegrounds and when I get a minute or two. I have not had much luck so far. Today I caught: 34 Sewer Carp, 16 Magic Eater, 4 Partially Eaten Fish, 4 Empty Vials 3 Drowned Rats and 2 Crystal Vials. I also found a Underbelly Elixir while I was down there. I did the daily fishing quest from Old Man Barlo, (40,59) at Silmyr Lake in Terokkar Forest, which was The One That Got Away. It went pretty quick and I got my World's Largest Mudfish on the 8th cast. I turned that in and got 6g91s1c, 3 Elixir of Water Walking and a Piece of Polished Driftwood in my Bag of Fishing Treasures. I needed the Elixir of Water Walking as I use them fishing and was running low. I also talked to Mythrara some more today and they joined Blackmoor Coven. I moved them right up to member so they can use the guild bank for repairs and also get items out of the bank.

I did some Eye of the Storm battles today. I fought in 6 battles, 4 wins and 2 losses. A couple of the wins were close but the losses were really bad. Too many people going for the flag instead of trying to get towers. Too many people leaving our nodes completely unguarded. I got to BET which was empty and it hadn't even finished clocking all the way over to our side, they left as soon as the banners changed... That is why we are losing in there, that and the large numbers of AFK all of a sudden. You never used to see a lot of AFK in EoS before.
