So, the newest event in World of Warcraft has officially started. The Pilgrim’s Bounty, based on the real Thanksgiving, is a quite short, one-week long event full of cooking and many turkeys.
And then, even more turkeys. Handle it!
I’ve already almost finished doing the achievements on both of my primary characters – the only real thing I have left is shooting some poor rogues with the Turkey Shooters you get from the dailies. Unfortunately that will have to wait a while for tomorrow when the dailies will reset, since I don’t have enough shooters – but I’m already prepared with all the necessary food made and waiting in the banks.
It’s a bit silly, because once again I’ve done over 90% of a world event’s achievements in less than one day, but I guess Blizzard makes the events for everyone, not just for our achievement hunting group that will stay up half a night doing that stuff.
A bonus from the event – since you have to cook everything yourself, there are special recipes covering cooking from 1 to 350. That means you can skip Azeroth and Outland cooking altogether, so I’ve finally leveled my druid’s cooking skill over the 240 or so it has been on for a while. And on 350 skill you can already start learning the Northrend trainer recipes, so I guess I’ll be doing some extra fishing during the week.
Oh, and we finally got the Onyxian Whelp today as well – and she’s, well… Can’t really say she’s cute, because she looks like a whelp after all (only with Onyxia’s miniaturized head), but the random animation she has is absolutely awesome. She makes an emote “Onyxian Whelpling takes a deep breath…” and runs around puffing smoke out of her mouth. Oh well, still a long way to go, little one, but it’s a good start!
