Daily Cooking - Convention at the Legerdemain again 12/4/09

Today Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome had Convention at the Legerdemain for me again. They must be having a convention all week.

This had me running over to the bank to grab some Chilled Meat for the Northern Stew then One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop, for the Jug of Wine. I found it in the same spot as the last 2 times. I took the wine and stew over to Arille Azuregaze, the bartender at The Legerdemain and exchanged it for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag which had 5 Northern Spices in it. Not a bad haul for this one today.

Daily Fishing - Monsterbelly Appetite 12/4/09

Today Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran had Monsterbelly Appetite for me.

That had me taking the flight path out of Dalaran to unu'pe. Once I got there I headed out to sea in a southeasterly direction until I was at the icebergs. I turned on fish finding and found a Monsterbelly school. I got my Bloated Monsterbelly on the first cast and recovered the Severed Arm. I hearthed back to Dalaran and went see Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange. She is going to try and reattach the arm to the fisherman.

For my troubles she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures with 9g90s33c, a Glow Worm, a Worthless piece of Orange Glass and 4 Deviate Fish. More junk today. I am due for something good so I bet I am going to get something really good when it happens, maybe the Jeweled Fishing Pole.

Daily Cooking - Convention at the Legerdemain 12/3/09

When I went to see Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome today, to see what she had for me, she gave me Convention at the Legerdemain. This is a pretty easy one that eats up a lot of supplies if you get it a lot. With the 'variety' Blizzard gives you on the daily's, you can be stuck on this one for days.

This one had me heading over to the bank to get some Chilled Meat so I could cook up the 4 Northern Stew this one calls for. Once I had those cooked I headed over to One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop, and grabbed a Jug of Wine. I found it upstairs this time. I have been having pretty good luck finding the items I need for the daily cooking lately, I don't know if less people are doing them or I am just hitting the timing right.

I took the stew and wine over to Arille Azuregaze, the bartender at The Legerdemain, and exchanged them for 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 3 Northern Spices in it. I guess this is a good haul, to be honest there is just nothing more to be had from this daily, I have gotten it all. I need the Northern Spices though, for cooking, and that's why I keep plugging away at this one every day.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker - 12/3/09

When I went and talked to Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, the daily fishing was, no surprise, Blood Is Thicker. This is the third day in a row on this one. For this one you need to catch 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy.

I took the flight path from Dalaran to Unu'pe in Borean Tundra, then flew inland to kill a Marsh Caribou so I could get covered in blood. Once I was blood covered I flew back to shore and jumped in the water. That washed the blood off me and created a blood pool which I fished in for my Bloodtooth Frenzy. I got my 5 pretty fast because you catch them in 2's and 3's.

I hearthed back to Dalaran and went to see Marcia. I turned the fish over to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today it had 8g31s80c, 3 Northsea Pearls, a New Age Painting signed by Marcia Chase, that I sold to a vendor for 25 gold, and 4 Deviate Fish in it. Not a bad haul with the painting I guess but I would like to see some of the better rewards from this one. It's been quite a while since I got anything good from this daily.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 12/2/09

The daily fishing today was Blood Is Thicker. This was still fresh in my mind as it is the same one I did yesterday, not much variety there.

I took the flight path to Unu'pe then flew inland until I found a Marsh Caribou to slaughter. I killed that, which covered me in blood, then flew back the 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, which is only a couple casts as you catch them in 2's and 3's. I took them back to Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran to exchange for a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today my Bag of Fishing Treasures had 10g1s87c, 3 Pygmy Oil, 3 Pieces of Worthless Orange Glass and 3 Deviate Fish in it. Another poor return on this daily today.

Daily Cooking - Mustard Dogs 12/2/09

The daily cooking quest today was the same as yesterday. As a matter of fact all my daily quests, cooking, fishing and battleground, were the same as yesterday. Today the cooking was Mustard Dogs!.

I headed out to the grassy areas around Dalaran and picked 4 Wild Mustard then headed over to the bank to get some Rhino Meat so I could make some Rhino Dogs. Once I had those cooked up I combined them with the Wild Mustard in the Empty Picnic Basket to make a Mustard Dog Basket!.

I took that over 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 and 4 Old Spices in it. Not a bad haul today.

3 Years Playing WoW 12/1/09

It's been 3 years, December 1st, since I started playing World of Warcraft. A lot has changed since then. I started out on a Warrior and got him to level 19. Then I saw a Warlock on a Felsteed and decided I had to have one of those and Gomorra was born. I level him up, got the Felsteed, it required level 40 back then, and eventually the Dreadsteed. I did a lot of battlegrounds on Gom but put him on the back burner when I created Wranngar. Wrann is the character I play most now, I do a lot of battlegrounds with him and have around 82,000 lifetime honorable kills on him.

I still do the daily cooking and fishing and, of course, the daily battleground pretty much every day. I do other daily's when I need the gold.

They are both level 80 now and I am looking forward to see what the future brings. So far I have seen Burning Crusades and Wrath of the Lich King arrive and am waiting to see what Cataclysm brings.

Daily Fishing - Blood is Thicker 12/1/09

Today when I went to see Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran, she had Blood Is Thicker for the daily fishing. This was a change from the last couple days but you fly right to the same flight point as you do for Monsterbelly Appetite. The difference is you head inland instead of out to sea.

I flew out of Dalaran to the flight point in Unu'pe then flew inland until I found a Marsh Caribou. I killed that so I would be covered in blood. Once I was covered in blood I flew back to the shore and jumped in the water, creating a blood pool and washing the blood off me at the same time. I fished in the blood pool until I caught 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy, then I headed back to see Marcia. I handed over the 5 Bloodtooth Frenzy to her and she gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures. Today it had 9g29s40c, 4 Pygmy Oil and 1 Piece of Worthless Green Glass in it. All junk again today. Tomorrow's gotta be better :). Even a Sealed Vial of Poison would be nice.


Daily Cooking - Mustard Dogs 12/1/09

Today Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer in the kitchen of A Hero's Welcome, gave me Mustard Dogs! for my daily cooking. This is a nice easy one you don't even have to leave Dalaran for as long as you keep some meat in stock for the daily cooking. In this case Rhino Meat.

This one had me heading out to the grassy areas of Dalaran in search of Wild Mustard, I needed 4 pieces. I got them pretty quick, once again it didn't seem like anyone was doing it at that time. With those in hand I headed over to the bank to grab 4 pieces of Rhino Meat to make the Rhino Dogs this recipe calls for. I cooked those up then combined them with the Wild Mustard to make a Mustard Dog Basket! I took that over to Archmage Pentarus (68,41) at Krasus' Landing and exchanged it for 9g93s, 2 Dalaran Cooking Awards and a Small Spice Bag with 4 Northern Spices and 4 Old Spices in it. The Old Spices make whoever you throw them at smell good, I like to throw them at the Horde in Dalaran to freshen the place up a little. Not a bad haul today, I am starting to replenish my stock of Northern Spices.


Daliy Fishing - Monsterbelly Appetite 11/30/09

When I went to see what Marcia Chase (53,65), by the fountain in Dalaran had for me today she gave me Monsterbelly Appetite again. Good job Blizz, so much for variety.

I took the flight path out of Dalaran to Unu'pe then headed out to sea, to the icebergs out there, to catch my Bloated Monsterbelly. I got it on the 3rd cast. By 3rd cast I mean a cast that actually landed in the school of fish and I caught something. Usually it takes a few casts each time to get into the pool. I opened up the Bloated Monsterbelly and got the Severed Arm out of it then hearthed back to Dalaran to turn it in.

This doesn't get turned back in to Marcia Chase, it gets turned in to Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange. She is going to attempt to reattach it to the fisherman who lost it. Good luck with that. She gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble which today had, 8g17s50c, 3 Pygmy Oil and 2 Crafted Stars. All junk today. Who knows, maybe tomorrow will bring something better.

Daily Cooking - Cheese for Glowergold 11/30/09

The daily cooking today was one of my least favorite, Cheese for Glowergold, but it went really fast. I got all 6 of the Half Full Dalaran Wine Glasses in A Hero's Welcome where I picked up the quest from Katherine Lee (41,65), the Grand Master Cooking Trainer, while I was in queue waiting for the battleground.

After the battle I went over to One More Glass, the wine and cheese shop, and found my piece of Aged Dalaran Limburger on the counter right when I walked in. I combined them on the platter that was supplied to me when I picked up the quest and headed off to see Ranid Glowergold (36,28) at the Leatherworkers in the Magus Commerce Exchange.

I gave him his Wine & Cheese platter and he gave me 9g93s, a Dalaran Cooking Award and a Small Spice Bag with 5 Northern Spices in it. Not a bad haul today.

Daily Fishing - Monsterbelly Appetite 11/29/09

When I went to see Marcia today to see if she had anything for me, she gave me Monsterbelly Appetite which had me flying over to Unu'pe to catch a Bloated Monsterbelly.

I took the flight path out of Dalaran to Unu'pe then flew out to sea in a southeasterly direction until I came to the icebergs (you can see from shore) out there. I turned on fish finding and flew around the icebergs until I found a school of Deepsea Monsterbelly. I fished in that school until I got a Bloated Monsterbelly which was my third cast. I cut it open (looted it) and got the severed arm from inside it then flew back and gave it to Olisarra the Kind, (36,37) the Grand Master First Aid Trainer in the Magus Commerce Exchange in Dalaran. She is going to attempt to reunite the arm with the fisherman. She must be a miracle worker.

She gave me a Bag of Fishing Treasures for my trouble which today had 10g95s2c, 4 Pygmy Oil, a Velociraptor Skull and 2 Deviate Fish in it. All pretty much junk except for the gold. Why would you give someone a Velociraptor Skull anyway?

Nightelf Mohawk - "It's Time to Pity Some Fools"

Now you too can be a Nightelf Mohawk, just like Mr. T. This is something Mr. T and Blizzard cooked up I guess. You can get a Mohawk Grenade from outside any starting area. Just look for the Nightelf Mohawk standing there. When you talk to him you have to click on the 'link' that says "I believe in you" and he gives you a Mohawk Gernade that lasts 24 hours and has 5 charges to it. You use it on a group of people and it transforms them into Nightelf Mohawks whether they want it or not. You target then just like you target an AoE spell. You can remove the buff, just like any friendly buff, by right clicking on it. It is just one more interesting thing to do while it lasts. There is not time frame on how long this will be available.
