300… 300… 300.

After hitting level 35, I went profession crazy and unlocked all my professions to 300. Skinning and Tailoring were fairly easy as I just went to the trainer. The other three weren’t as easy, though not much harder either.

Skinning
I just went to the Skinning Trainer and there he could increase my Skinning. Simple. Too bad I won’t be able to seriously level skinning until we do more Instances.

Tailoring
The Master Tailor is located in Tarren Mill. Just flew over there and trained. Then I spent approximately 225-240g on supplies and new recipes and leveled my Tailoring to 300. The only annoying part was to travel to Everlook and get the Runecloth Bag recipe. I died a lot.

First-Aid
I flew to Hammerfall in Arathi Highlands. There I found the Trauma Surgeon in the southern building of Hammerfall and did the quest Triage! It was fairly easy, even if I did lose four of my patients in the first minute or two because I was trying to remember how to do the quest. Essentially you bust out with your Triage bandages on the wounded patients as they come in. The weaker or more badly hurt ones will die sooner. You’re suppose to successfully bandage 15 people before you lose 6 of them. I managed to complete it the first try. Woot! I then went to the AH and bought cloth up the wazoo. Made some bandages, went back to the Trauma Surgeon to train and eventually hit 300. I suppose I could buy the book to level First Aid some more, but it seems pointless at this point. Maybe when I’m 60 I’ll do it.

Cooking
This was a quest, To Gadgetzan you Go! On the way there, a Mage was sitting by the flight guy as I arrived. Before I could get to town, I was dead. I soulstoned and went inside. He came up to me, laughed, and then Pyroblasted my ass to the next century. At least the guards got him that time. Bastard Alliance. How harmful could a naked Blood Elf be?

Apparently I had to get certain materials and then return it to the quest dude. Unfortunately all the materials drop from level 40-45ish mobs. I wasn’t about to go farming on high level mobs. Besides that would give me too much xp. So I stewed there for a couple of days. Then I read something online that you can buy all the crap from the AH and the cheese from the Innkeeper in Thousand Needles. Sweet. This inspired me to complete my Cooking and Fishing quests. For a cost of about 7g, I completed my Cooking quest.

Fishing
This was a much more annoying quest, Nat Pagle, Angler Extreme. This one, I had to fish in four hostile territories. A level 45 quest for a level 35 seemed a bit… risk~kay. So I undressed to my skinnies and rode the giant winged flyer. It was actually not that bad to do, though this was the worst quest to do.

The four areas I had to go to were Feralas, Desolace, Stranglethorn Vale, and the Swamp of Sorrows. Luckily, I had all the flight paths already. I flew down to Feralas first, head west along the road to the river, and started to fish. There were no mobs on the way and you just took a small chance that an Alliance guy came by to kill you on their way to Dune Maul or Feathermoon. I had to buy some fishing bait because well, I might as well catch other high level fish while I look for these rare ones. It turned out that they weren’t so rare at all and this one came to me easily.

Desolace was pretty good too. I went to Shadowprey Village, ran along the coast down south until I hit the new area, Sar’theris. Then I did some more fishing there. No real mobs to worry about.

At Grom’gol I saw a 39 Alliance Shaman go at it with a 39 Warlock. It looked fairly grim as the warlock only had his imp out. For some reason the warlock started to beat on the shaman with his staff and I knew he was in trouble. I ran out there and casted fear on the shaman a couple of times. I also dotted him up. After he finished with the warlock he came after me. It was at this point I realized that I had no armor, no weapons, no pet, and he beats me by four levels. Swell. I just stood there attempting to cast Fear and dot him. He then killed me… /sigh. Then the next second he fell over dead… /woot. Unfortunately it was a long ass run from the top of the zone back to my dead body, but that’s where I wanted to fish anyway. I went slightly north along the coast, avoiding mobs, to fish in the Savage Coast.

I then flew to Stonard. This would make my day. You can actually get to the coast aggroing only a couple of mobs. I had to use my Voidwalker and Soulstone, but I still made it there. I tried fishing on the coast, but the Murlocs kept aggroing and killing me. Then I saw an island not too far in the south east corner of the map. I double-checked with Thottbot and started to fish there instead. It took about 1/2 an hour before I got my fish. Stupid rotten fish wouldn’t appear.

——————————————-
I completed all my quests and now can level all of my professions to 300. Unfortunately I also earned a lot of experience through these quests (about 4k a pop), discovering new areas, and killing some mobs on the way. This puts me about 7 bubbles to level which I believe is much less than Sindral needs. Oh well… at least I have something else to do before I do the mass Deviate fishing.
