Locks I didn’t mind. Frost mages, on the other hand.

Hmm, might be fun to save it for a transmorgrification set, and run around doing your dailies in a pilgrim outfit. 🙂

Thanks, **Skammie**! 🙂

Uh, I’ve got about 8 treasure chests that I need lock-picked and have never been able to find a rogue (225 or higher) at any time I have tried. Anyone know of one, otherwise I’ll just keep 'em in the bank.

Thanks

How does one delete WTF when Vista tells me “You need permission to continue”?

Me and tech support are still working on my auto loot shut-off program, and they have sent me a step by step answer, but I can’t get past deleting WTF.

Also, the quest ‘Convention at the Lergerdemain’ may be bugged. It’s a Dal Alliance quest and one part you have to obtain at Vengeance Landing and the guy who is supposed to teach you the Northern Stew recipe is supposed to be in the middle of town next to a campfire.

There’s no tracker arrow to him first of all, and when I did find a campfire, there was no one here and I was immediately beset by 5 Horde and died.

Thanks

Q

PS: I could have skipped this daily, but I’m only one point away from completing all my cooking skill levels and wanted to see if I could get it as all my other dailies don’t relate to cooking.

You can get the recipe as a reward for the [Northern Cooking](http://www.wowhead.com/quest=13088) quest in Valiance Keep. As a shortcut, you can buy 4 chilled meat from the auction house before going to Valiance Keep, accept the quest, then turn them in immediately.

Made Master Cook, finally, thanks to **Mr. Rik** and **jayjay** for your patience. Just need to finish Herb Gathering and a few items for First Aid, and that will fill up 2 professions and 3 (what?) sub-professions.

I also had to do some maintenance tonight and had to re-download all my add-ons (what a pain) and I must have downloaded this one by accident, because when I went to the quartermasters’ to see what I could upgrade to and clicked on an item, I got a message at the “currently equipped” window which says something like “this is your best item”. Great time saver, I guess.

Thanks

Goddamnit Blizzard, you fucked up all my well-laid plans! 4.3 wasn’t supposed to drop until Dec 6th, but now it’s going to be this Tuesday the 29th! I was planning to use the extra week to wrap Skyward Sword. ☹

Does Blizz need to overhaul/replace a couple of races, maybe?

For example, I’ve NEVER seen a Tauren and very few Undead played.

Also, there’s no need for me to store recipes I’ve already learned in my bank, right?

Thanks

You’ve been playing a blood elf, right? Not to surprising you don’t see many of the other Horde races in the Belf starting areas. I’m pretty sure they’re well represented - I’ve been in all-undead 5-man parties before and I see a lot of Tauren paladins now.

If you’ve already learned a recipe, there is no reason to keep it. Either try to auction it off or vendor it.

Yep, I’m a blood elf too (albeit a max-level one) and I see plenty of Tauren and Undead. I’m not sure what level your BE is, Quasi, but I’m sure you 'll see more when you get out of the BE starting area (and Tranquillien) and move to Orgrimmar.

After the Auberdine thread, I think I need to get my boys up for a For The Alliance run tonight. I feel like re-introducing the “Dark Lady” to my mitts.

So getting my Valor cap off of Well of Eternity. I would say in one go, but that’s 7 runs at ~2hrs apiece and I work this week. 😃

Well, for myself, I have 2 Forsaken and 3 Tauren toons on my primary realm. Most of them are 85s, though none are as well geared as my Orc main. But my original main was one of the undeads, a priest.

So I’d be right pissed off if Blizz decided Forsaken or Tauren needed to be replaced. IMHO, most of the “added” races in later xpacs are jokes gone terribly wrong. (Worgen? Really?)

I guess I’m too old sk00l to appreciate the additions. 😛

The only time I do that is if I expect an alt to be able to use it later, but if not, it’s off to the AH (if it’s kind of rare-ish) or vendor (if it’s not). Maybe I’ll drop a copy in the guild bank if there’s not one already there, but if it’s one of those recipes you’ll inevitably get in the course of questing, probably not.
