Finding recipes is the mark of a dedicated collector--beyond dutifully ticking off achievements and diligently doing tasks simply for points. You are solely responsible for setting your collecting pace; the freedom can be frustrating at times, but exhilarating when you've finished a subset of recipes and feel like you've solved part of a large jigsaw puzzle, hunting down recipes from obscure instances and reputations. It's fun to chase down patterns across Azeroth, when so many achievements and quests are now straightforward. Plus, you may even find generous twinks willing to tip hundreds of gold for obscure recipes!
I began to collect recipes seriously during the dog-days of ICC. I rolled a priest to learn inscription techniques and tailoring patterns, as well as a deathknight to learn most blacksmithing. I began to care more about enchanting on my rogue, finished up most engineering schematics on my warlock, and hoped for transmute discoveries again on my alt rogue. For obscure reasons, Jewelcrafting and Leatherworking have never held a particular charm--perhaps it's because I rolled these professions purely for raid benefits and blithely unlearned them to pick up Tailoring and Engineering mounts.
It's been over a year, and I'm still rounding these collections out. I really enjoyed figuring out what Burning Crusade reputations my then-fresh 85 needed to grind out for a pattern, or what vanilla boss needed to be soloed. Since the project has started, there's been raid progression and achievement-hunting taking priority at points, but it's always been fun to return to.
Ackis Recipe List
is a great mod to use to track down all recipes and their methods of acquisition. Our own Wowhead profiler also keeps track of your recipes as well.
In the following tabs, I'll highlight some of the quirky patterns, collection methods, and achievements for each profession. We've recently updated our profession pages to cover the practicalities of each profession, so check back there for the profession trainers and other nuts and bolts!
Primary Professions
Getting the basics out of the way first: your character can learn two primary professions at a time. These are:
Alchimie
,
Forge
,
Enchantement
,
Ingénierie
,
Herboristerie
,
Calligraphie
,
Joaillerie
,
Minage
,
Dépeçage
,
Couture
. Maxing out two primary professions to 525 will grant
Travail ardent
. If you've learned a mount, that will remain in your spellbook, but you won't be able to use it. All recipes are forgotten upon dropping a profession.
Alchemy
Alchemists can create numerous potions and elixirs, as well as transmuting elements and gems. There are numerous world drops, recipes from unique vendors, rewards for reputation grinds, as well as
discoveries
learnt while creating other items.
Discoveries are one way to learn many recipes. In the process of making other items, you'll have a small chance to learn new recipes.
BC-era resistance cauldrons
are discovered through making individual
Major Protection Potions
, which are mostly mob-specific drops.
The remaining BC-era
transmutes
,
flasks
, and
potions
are discovered through making any type of BC-era item (speculation is that it's been changed so that discoveries favor the type of item you are crafting).
Northrend Alchemy Research
, available at 400 on a 3 day cooldown, has a chance to teach you 13 recipes.
Transmuting Northrend Eternals allows you to discover further
transmutes
.
17
recipes
are BoP from specific mobs. The droprates appear lower than expected since it takes into account all the non-Alchemists who have looted this mob and have been unable to see the recipes.
Recette : Potion de protection contre le Sacré majeure
is still a pain to farm because there aren't many mobs;
Recette : Potion de bouclier de fer
takes a while to reach in Old Hillsbrad. The rest aren't too bad; farming Outlands heroics or clumps of outdoor mobs shouldn't take very long.
There are vendors all over Azeroth who sell
special recipes
, some on limited respawns like
Recette : Huile glaciale
.
New to Cataclysm is
Recette : Fiole des sables
, sometimes found in
Vase canope
, a Tol'vir archaeology solve.
Blacksmithing
Blacksmiths mainly craft plate armor as well as
Boucle de ceinture d'acier ébène
s. Collecting Blacksmithing recipes is a difficult process as you will be trying to find plans itemized for tanks, dps,
and
healers. There used to be crafting specializations (e.g. Weaponsmith, Armorsmith) allowing players to learn a handful of plans--this has been removed but it's still buggy as players can't learn the opposing specialization's patterns. Of course, there's many patterns available via
reputation
as well. Blacksmithing is already difficult to level, so good luck if you want to be a completionist!
Besides trainers, a good chunk of
recipes
can be gotten by turning in Cata-level bars to Blacksmithing suppliers in major cities.
There's a series of
Advanced Armorsmithing
books from various vanilla instances, that when put together and returned to their rightful NPCs, reward you with the
Enchanted Thorium
set.
From MC to Firelands, there's a series of recipes unique to raids:
Molten Core
,
Ulduar
,
Trial of the Crusader
,
Sunwell Plateau
,
Hyjal Summit
,
SSC
,
Black Temple
, and
Firelands
.
There's several series of BoP armor sets that are very difficult to farm up:
Runic Plate
,
Reinforced Cobalt
,
Ragesteel
,
Felsteel
, and
Khorium
.
Turning in enough
Texte du Crépuscule crypté
to
Ortell l'ermite
in Silithus should get you the
Darkrune set
eventually in the mail.
The
Barbaric
series is only available Horde-side, in a series of quests from
Orokk Omosh
. As the resulting patterns are BoE, you can move them across factions.
Lokhtos Sombrescompte
, a member of the Thorium Brotherhood found in Blackrock Depths, sells numerous blacksmithing patterns. He also finishes the quest
Un contrat contraignant
, rewarding you with
Plans : Marteau en sulfuron
.
Completing
Des armes en rab
in the Molten Front unlocks many ilvl 365 epic plans.
Plans de forgeron
which spawn in fixed locations in Blackrock Depths and Stratholme, can contain
Plans : Corruption
(negative stats ftw),
Plans : Sérénité
,
Plans : Cotte de mailles en sombrefer
,
Plans : Epaulières en sombrefer
.
There were some great Blacksmithing quests which were removed in Cataclysm.
Lilith l'Agile
and her friends in Winterspring used to teach weapon specializations, sending you on quests to vanilla instances that rewarded you with patterns.
Plans : Cuirasse démoniaque
was a quest reward from Winterspring as well, but it's since been removed with the revamps to the zone.
Plans : Gantelets en plaques de feu
, from the removed quest
Mort brûlante
, amusingly taught you that fire was in fact bad. And saddest of all is the removal of Trenton Light's epic questline in Tanaris, which rewarded mithril enthusiasts with
Insigne rougeoyant en mithril
and
Chevalière d'expertise
, which summoned the epic hammer
Marteau d'expertise
.
Enchanting
Enchanting
allows players to disenchant items, create enchants, and enchant their rings with special stat boosts. There's also fun items like
Lampe magique
! As expansions have gone by, the means to collecting these formulae have simplified but some vanilla and BC-era formulae will prove tricky to find. Many Wrath formulae can be purchased from
Vanessa Sellers
for Wrath-era shards, and
Cata formulae
for
Éclat des cieux
s and
Cristal du maelström
s.
Several instances have unique BoP formulae:
Ulduar
,
Temple and Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj
, and
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Mangouste)
,
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Âme de givre)
,
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Feu solaire)
, and
Formule : Enchantement de bottes (Pied sûr)
from Karazhan. Molten Core has two,
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Pouvoir de guérison)
and
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Puissance des sorts)
, but those are at least BoE.
Specific mobs
in BC used to have a very low chance to drop certain formulae. They've since been buffed to be nearly 100%.
Keep scouring the AH for these rare drops:
Formule : Enchantement de bouclier (Parade inférieure)
,
Formule : Enchantement de bouclier (Parade)
,
Formule : Enchantement de plastron (Caractéristiques supérieures)
. Hopefully, nobody will know they are important and you can snag them for like I did. BC-recipes are also harder to find than in the past; in the old version of Zul'Aman, the food vendor had a chance to sell a scroll case containing a rare recipe.
Northrend has some
mob-specific recipes
: cape enchants from various parts of Icecrown and a +fishing enchant from the In'dule in Dragonblight.
With the changes to Cataclysm, it seems some recipes were lost along the way. You can still find these by checking the AH.
Vélin d'enchantement ancien
used to drop from treants in Ashenvale,
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Frisson glacial)
from Highborne in Winterspring,
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Croisé)
from the Scarlet Crusade, and
Formule : Enchantement d'arme (Exécutrice)
from Old Zul'Aman. The uncommon recipes are all BoE--so keep checking the AH.
Engineering
Engineering
provides all sorts of bombs, goggles, gadgets, and fun flavor items. Engineers were in high demand to craft epic ammunition in past expansions, but that's been removed. There are two types of Engineering specializations: Gnomish and Goblin. You will not be able to retain knowledge of one specialization's schematic if you swap, so choose wisely if you're after a particular silly item.
Sunwell Plateau has a series of
BoE engineering goggles
, which allow players to upgrade their BC-era epic goggles. The drop rate is pretty tiny though.
Other instances with unique schematics include Karazhan (
Lunette en éternium stabilisé
) and Molten Core (
Schéma : Hyperviseur Biznicks 247 x 128
,
Schéma : Carabine de tireur d'élite endurci
,
Schéma : Disque de force réactif
).
Gnomeregan is the quintessential engineering instance--unsurprisingly, there are
many drops
, especially from
Mekgénieur Thermojoncteur
. Look out especially for
Schéma : Monocle de l'artisan
and
Schéma : Pare-flammes
, as well as
Salopette de mécabâtisseur
, a zone-wide drop that requires Engineering to equip.
The
Fête lunaire
awards you with
many firework schematics
if you take the time to collect
Pièce des ancêtres
.
There are several BoP Outlands drops that are maddening to farm:
Schéma : Espingole en gangracier
,
Schéma : Lunettes d'hyper-vision
,
Schéma : Lunette en khorium
,
Schéma : Bottes-fusées extrêmes
, and
Schéma : Bottes-fusées extrêmes légères
. There's also some other mob-specific drops scattered about:
Schéma : Carabine sans défaut en arcanite
from Eastern Plaguelands,
Schéma : Jeeves
salvaged from any 70+ mechanical,
Schéma : Robot réparateur 110G
from
Analyseur gan'arg
, and
Schéma : Modulateur d'amplification vocale
in Stratholme, to mention a few.
Kaye Toogie
sells
Schéma : Petit dragon en arcanite
,
Schéma : Petit dragon mécanique
, and
Schéma : Petit dragon mécanique en mithril
. She sits at the bottom of a dark chute in Dalaran, only accessible if you get the
Anomalie
option from
Générateur de tunnel spatiotemporel : Norfendre
.
There used to be engineering huts tucked away in corners of Azshara,
The Hinterlands
, and
Stranglethorn Vale
; the vendors sold unique limited schematics. The one in Azshara is now removed, but those schematics are now available from trainers and the other huts remain in Cataclysm.
Temporarily out of commission in Cataclysm,
Zorbin Poudrozieu
is back in 4.1 selling
Schéma : Feu d'artifice « Explosion serpentine »
after you complete his two quests.
In previous expansions, Alliance and Horde needed to trade
Schéma : Feu d'artifice bleu
and
Schéma : Feu d'artifice rouge
via the neutral AH, as faction-changing would automatically change the color of the firework. Now, goblin
Clakfrik
is happy to sell you all types of fireworks--of course on a limited timer.
Robot réparateur 74A
is required to make
Jeeves
, a must-have for any engineer. The plans are picked up from the floor of BRD near
Seigneur golem Argelmach
, in a similar fashion to the Blacksmithing recipes lying around the instance.
Completing
Des armes en rab
unlocks the vendor for
Schéma : Ronge-bois de Flintlocke
and
Schéma : Perforeuse à impact extrême
.
Gathering
Gathering professions (
Herbalism, Mining, Skinning
) don't have much--they're really just quite practical.
Herbalism
has a neat animation when
is used--it summons a bunch of flowers. Also,
Graine donneuse de vie
restore health and mana in addition to disguising the user as a random herb.
Mining
is also practical, but with a few interesting parts. You must complete
Le Calice spectral
in Blackrock Depths before learning
Fonte du sombrefer
from
Funéb'rel
.
Fonte de l'élémentium enchanté
is learned in Blackwing Lair from
Guide gobelin de l'élémentium
dropped by
Maître élémentaire Krixix le Sculpteur
.
Fonte du khorium trempé
is learned from
Étude des techniques de fonte avancées
, a zone-wide drop in Sunwell Plateau.
Inscription
Inscription
is a fairly straightforward profession for collectors. Make sure to do
and
daily while scouring the AH for
Livre de la maîtrise des glyphes
. These books should have been phased out in 4.2, but it currently remains that some recipes are only learnt via them.
Rituels de la nouvelle lune
transforms the user into a werewolf; fittingly the technique drops from
Silverbrook
mobs who are affected with a werewolf curse.
New to Cataclysm are
Scarabée en origami
from Uldum,
Rocher en origami
from Deepholm, and
Limon en origami
from Vash'jir. They're BoP drops only lootable by Inscriptionists.
Low-level decks like the
Suite de Voleurs
summon a Darkmoon Faire NPC who rewards you with themed gear like
Robe de Sombrelune
.
There's some other strange low-level offhand with odd equips:
Guide du cracheur de feu
breathes fire,
Tome à reliure orageuse
shocks enemies with nature damage,
Livre des entourloupes rusées
increases your…dodge rating?!
Jewelcrafting
Jewelcrafting
, added in TBC, mostly provides players with gems, necks, and rings. Perks for Jewelcrafters include special BoP gems with increased stats, as well as BoP starter trinkets. There are an endless amount of patterns to be gotten from vendors, doing dailies, and redeeming tokens for Wrath and Cata recipes, in addition to checking the AH for BoE patterns. There's also some strange lower-level patterns and more interesting ways to collect TBC patterns.
New to Cataclysm are several
Vanity Monocles
, which are BoE world drops. These can fetch a hefty price on the Auction House.
At 350, players can learn how to craft several
focusing lens
, items which create a neon line between the player and the target.
Jewelcrafters can now directly purchase or discover designs from
Tome des joyaux ardents
for cutting epic gems.
Sunwell Plateau has a few
unique designs
, some of which are BoP.
Several designs only drop from specific mobs in The Storm Peaks:
Dessin : Opale crépusculaire fiable
,
Dessin : Opale crépusculaire de défenseur
,
Dessin : Halo de l'automne lisse
,
Dessin : Emeraude forestière radieuse
. Not a 100% drop, but should be easy to farm.
The end bosses from some Northrend heroics are guaranteed to drop BoP recipes. From Normal/Heroic:
Dessin : Diamant siègeterre austère
,
Dessin : Diamant siègeterre tonifiant
,
Dessin : Diamant siègeterre éternel
. From Heroic:
Dessin : Topaze monarchique mortelle
,
Dessin : Topaze monarchique adroite
,
Dessin : Topaze monarchique féroce
,
Dessin : Opale crépusculaire luisante
,
Dessin : Rubis écarlate précis
,
Dessin : Halo de l'automne subtil
,
Dessin : Opale crépusculaire intemporelle
.
Khorium Bands are BoP designs that are found throughout Outlands on specific mobs:
Dessin : Bague des ombres en khorium
from
Ténébromancien du sombre Conclave
,
Dessin : Bague des feuilles en khorium
from
Aigleffroi vekh'nir
,
Dessin : Bague arcanique en khorium
from
Pourfend-mage
,
Dessin : Bague d'Inferno en khorium
from
Sombre tisseur Syth
, and
Dessin : Bague de givre en khorium
from
Sorcière de Glissecroc
.
Several bosses drop designs:
Dessin : Diadème de puissance arcanique
from
Chasseur d'époques
,
Dessin : Scorpide en sombrefer
from
Seigneur golem Argelmach
,
Dessin : Cerclet de la flamme verdoyante
from
Botaniste cherche-soleil
,
Dessin : Crabe de diamant noir
from
Intendant Zigris
.
Be sure to check the numerous
designs from reputation
, especially the epic BC cuts sold by
Indormi
from
Balance des sables
.
Leatherworking
Leatherworking
provides leather and mail armor to dps and healers, as well as special leg and bracer enchants for crafters (and
Patron : Semelles confortables
). There are numerous patterns to be collected, as the profession covers two armor types. Cata-level recipes require
Cuir sauvage lourd
to purchase from special vendors in Twilight Highlands and capital cities,
Braeg Rudebarbe
sells Wrath-level patterns, and there's many patterns from
reputation
. There used to be three different types of Leatherworking specializations, but they have been removed and their patterns trainable from regular Leatherworking trainers (unlike the Blacksmithing glitch).
There's zone-specific drops, from MC to Firelands:
Ulduar
,
Trial of the Crusader
,
Firelands
,
Tier 5
,
Tier
6
,
Molten Core
, and
Sunwell Plateau
.
The
Stylin' Hat
series drops from mid-level Outland dungeons--they looks like cheerful safari hats.
There are
resistance armor kits
that drop in outlands dungeons from specific mobs.
There's some low-level sets that drop across Azeroth that are fairly easy to collect:
Heavy Scorpid
,
Frostsaber
,
Chimeric
, and
Stormshroud
.
Color-coded sets named after the dragonscales required to create them are as follows:
Green Dragonscale
,
Blue Dragonscale
,
Red Dragonscale
,
Black Dragonscale
.
Some of the Northrend
Fur Linings
are listed as BoP zone-wide drops in our database, meaning they drop from several types of mobs in a specific subzone. Other Fur Linings are learnt from trainers.
Remplir le puits de lune
from the Molten Front unlocks the vendor for
Patron : Sacoche de scribe royal
and
Patron : Sac de mineur à triple renfort
.
Tailoring
Tailoring
provides all sorts of cloth armor for casters, as well as special leg and cape enchants for crafters, as well as mounts. It also allows you to loot greater quantities of cloth. Vendors in major capital cities and Twilight Highlands sell
new patterns
for
Rouleau d'étoffe de braise-soie
and
Filerêve
, while former specialization vendors (
Couture de tisse-ombre
,
Couture d'étoffe lunaire
,
Couture du feu-sorcier
) sell their previously-exclusive wares at cheap prices to all. Of course, there's many patterns available via
reputation
as well.
Tied to several achievements are patterns that Dalaran tailoring vendors will teach you upon completion.
Cape de Froidemort
is unlocked upon completing
Maître des traditions du Norfendre
and
Cape aérienne
is unlocked upon completing
Maître des donjons du Norfendre
.
There's zone-specific drops, from MC to Firelands:
Ulduar
,
Trial of the Crusader
,
Karazhan trash
,
Hyjal Summit
,
Black Temple
,
Tier 5
,
Sunwell Plateau
, and
Molten Core
.
Like
Blacksmithing
, turning in enough
Texte du Crépuscule crypté
to
Ortell l'ermite
in Silithus should get you the
Runed Stygian set
eventually in the mail.
There are a number of
BoP patterns
from Outlands instances--both normal and heroic. Remember that the ones from Kael are also world BoE drops.
Patron : Robe en tisse-arcane
is pretty easy to farm from Mechanar and is one of the nicest robes in the game.
The
Mooncloth set
, from high-level vanilla mobs, is quite elusive to track down but you'll look like Tyrande afterwards. With many vanilla elites removed, several other vanilla patterns got even rarer:
Patron : Sac sans fond
,
Patron : Gants de maîtrise magique
, for example.
The contents of
Réserve de Noué Dédodevie
are now removed from the game, with the changes to Dire Maul. You can't learn how to make
Tenue d'ogre gordok
anymore as well--you can just acquire them from a repeatable quest. However, as the epic patterns are BoE, you may get lucky and find some remaining on the AH.
Patron : Masque en tisse-ombre
, from a removed quest in Searing Gorge, is also available via the AH as it is BoE.
There are several
shirts
around Northrend that only tailors can loot, but they are BoE so can also be placed on the AH.
Completing
Remplir le puits de lune
unlocks the vendor for
Patron : Sac de gemmes en soie luxueuse
.
Secondary Professions
Secondary professions are:
Archéologie
,
Cuisine
,
,
Pêche
. Characters can maximize all of these professions concurrently. Unlike primary professions, secondary professions do not come with built-in stat boosts to your character, but they are very practical. For example, you can, with the right level
Cooking
, make your own buff food instead of going broke at the Auction House. (Or, secondary professions like
Archaeology
may seem like a lesson in futility.) If you max out all secondary professions to 525, you earn
Boulots encore plus alimentaires
, but there's much more fun to be had.
Archaeology
Archaeology is a new secondary profession added in Cataclysm. The purpose of archaeology is to unearth fragments from the past, piecing them together to form artifacts. You'll do so by flying to specific digsites, discovering 3-6 fragments per node, and solving when you've accumulated enough fragments and keystones (roughly 30 per common artifact, 100+ for rares and epics.) Some solves vend for hundreds of gold, while others turn into BoA ilvl 359 epics. Other times, you can go hours finding annoying digsites and solving artifacts that vend for . Regardless of what you solve, at first it's a fun way to learn more about Azeroth's lore since all artifacts, found in the Archaeology spellbook, have an entry with fun flavor text.
As you solve more rare and epic artifacts, you'll work towards
Leur place est dans un musée !
, which grants the title "Professor." There are currently over 30 rare artifacts, so you should be able to reach this with some diligence and luck. Definitely a favorite title of many disgruntled graduate students.
Rare artifacts are as follows:
BoA items:
Bénédiction du Dieu très ancien
,
Carapace de tortue disparue
,
Coiffure du premier chaman
,
Hache barbue de Nifflevar
,
Pendentif de la tempête de scarabées
,
Robe de chambre de la reine Azshara
,
Anneau de l'enfant-empereur
,
Cimeterre du sirocco
,
Bâton d'Ammunae
,
Bâton du thane-sorcier Thaurissan
,
Poupée préférée de Tyrande
,
Zin'rokh, le Destructeur de mondes
.
Mounts:
Raptor fossilisé
,
Sceptre d'Azj'Aqir
,
Recette : Fiole des sables
Port:
La fille de l'aubergiste
,
La dernière relique d'Argus
Pets:
Griffe rampante
,
Gnome mécanique
,
Jeune raptor fossilisé
,
Jeune pterreurdactyle
,
Figurine vaudou
Misc:
Os de transformation
,
Boîte à secret de Yogg-Saron
,
Amulette de feu follet
,
Ambre ancien
,
Arrivée des Naaru
,
Calice des rois de la montagne
,
Ensemble de statuettes de prêtre et de druidesse
,
Tambour de guerre hanté
,
Miroir de l'âme de Bien-né
,
Carillon à vent kaldorei
,
Corne à boire vrykule
While less useful, the common artifacts are rich in lore and have a number of achievements associated with them:
L'éclair bleu
(looks like a bad pug to me),
Les rois sous la montagne
,
Les sept sceptres
,
Le garçon qui voulait devenir roi
,
Plus dure sera la chute
,
Tragédie en trois actes
.
Cooking
Cooking serves a practical purpose; it provides your toon with all sorts of buff food, useful for raiding as well as questing. However, just like any food store, there's a gourmet section of odd things you can acquire from "mood" food to an array of alcohol.
Completing the Cooking meta-achievement,
Gloire au chef
, will reward you with the title "Chef."
Cuisiner avec classe
requires you to acquire a
Chef's Hat
, which allows you to cook insanely fast when equipped. It costs 100
Récompense de l’épicurien
, a reward for completing daily cooking quests in Dalaran. To speed things up,
Recette détrempée
from
Sac de trésors de pêche
awards 5
Récompense de l’épicurien
and can also be found in
Petit sac d'épices
.
Maître-queux
requires you to learn most every
recipe
in the game. Here are some of the more fun recipes.
Brune du capitaine Rumsey
is learned from a recipe rarely found in cooking and fishing reward bags. It increases your fishing, gets you drunk, and counts for
Auprès de ma brune
.
Recette : Côtelettes foudroyantes
is another recipe found in cooking bags and from Outlands dailies. It periodically zaps mobs around you with lightning.
Le gâteau n'est pas un mensonge
:
Gâteau au chocolat délicieux
, setting off fireworks and making your character
Très heureux
, is learned from a recipe found in Outlands/Wrath cooking reward bags.
La séquence émotion
: Four "mood" recipes drop from any mob in Northrend. You will need 300 cooking to roll on them, even though they require 400 cooking to learn. They are:
Palourdes avariées
,
Mammouth de la semaine dernière
,
Hareng hanté
,
Délicieux petit four
.
Délice de déviant
, from a BoE zone-wide drop in the Barrens, turns you into a human ninja! Once an extremely rare recipe, the drop rate has been buffed in Cataclysm.
Cataclysm adds several more "flavor" recipes sold by new cooking vendors:
Recette : Eau-de-vie des Hautes-terres
,
Recette : Thé glacé du grand Sud
,
Recette : Cookie au chocolat
(needed for
Vous avez la pêche !
),
Recette : Espresso brûlétoile
.
Les petites bébêtes
:
Bouchées de bestiole
, when thrown at small critters, makes them follow you around.
Many vendors sell BoE recipes. On one level, there's roughly one low-level recipe from each faction, in addition to recipes sold in major cities.
Vendeur-o-tron 1000
that patrols Northern Desolace is the only seller of
Recette : Venaison dégraissée
.
Super-Vendeur 680
, patrolling Southern Desolace, sells several more recipes including the unique
Recette : Steak de grand ours
and
Recette : Steak de loup
.
Recette : Thé de chardon
and
Recette : Pyro-côtelettes de chimaerok à la Dirge
are no longer obtainable by new players.
Thistle Tea
is available to rogues, but very early in Vanilla, all classes could purchase a BoE version. There's still a few floating around, so it doesn't hurt to look. As for the Chops, the recipe was one reward from an epic questline tied to the opening of the AQ gates, now removed in Cataclysm.
Most players despaired when the Barrens was revamped in Cataclysm--it meant that
Recette : Brouet de rat
was no longer available. It looks like it's been recently added back and drops from
Pilleur d'excavations
and
Soldat de Bael'dun
.
Enjoy making booze in Sholazar? If you've finished that chain, you can learn
Recette : Kungaloosh
from a
Mage échoué
in the Dalaran Sewers.
There's some fun items from the bags you get as daily rewards, as well as recipes like
Recette : Soupe de poisson-crâne
. From
Caisse de viande
there's
Anneau terni en argent
, and from
Petit sac d'épices
there's
Épice de bébé
and
Épices anciennes
.
First Aid
First Aid
allows you to prepare bandages in a pinch--very useful while leveling. However, some achievements will definitely make you sick of bandages!
Manuel : Sérum anti-venin supérieur
may not look like much, but it's an incredibly rare world drop. Try to see if leveling toons ignorantly place this on the Auction House.
These achievements will make you sick of bandages:
Réserves
and
En prévision du désastre
.
Triage
/
Triage
are neat quests that teach players how to prioritize heals among incoming damage.
Duel someone to easily get
Triage ultime
.
Angélique Bouteleur
, residing in First to Your Aid in Dalaran, sells a variety of medical-related props.
Potion de soins en intraveineuse
is similar to a lightwell--it has many charges and will disappear after it's used up.
Pansement imprégné d'antiseptique
and
Pansement
are popular among raiders, while
Robe d'infirmière de Dalaran
is identical to what the First Aid trainers wear.
Fishing
Just as in real life,
Fishing
is a relaxing profession with a sense of the unexpected--you could find a great catch, discover treasure, or return home empty-handed. While some fish are required for practical in-game food, there are numerous items from
Fishing
that are purely vanity status items, like
Poudroyeuse
.
Completing the fishing meta grants
Pêcheur accompli
and the funny title "Salty." This meta will require a good deal of patience.
Not required for the meta is
À la pêche à la tortue
, granted when you fish up the elusive
Tortue de mer
from any Wrath or Cataclysm pools. This mount is slow on land, but faster in water. Also unrelated to the meta are achievements for fishing up
Vieux gueule-de-fer
and
Vieux malin
.
Ça mord !
requires you to farm up extremely-rare fish; these will never be used in practical food. These are all quirky off-hands, and some like
Hareng sombre
are actual weapons.
Sceau de Dalaran en titane
is a great incentive to level fishing by searching for coins in the Dalaran fountain. Clicking on this coin creates a heads or tails emote--great for determining annoying raid assignments. It's a reward from
Le maître des pièces
, which in turn requires you to farm up all the coins contained in
Une fontaine en or
,
Une pièce de cuivre contre vos pensées
, and
L'argent coule à flots
. Gold-quality coins, when thrown back into the fountain, grant a buff that gives you a greater chance to fish up coins.
Over the expansions, the rewards from fishing dailies have contained a variety of humorous--and sometimes profitable--vendor trash. All bags have a chance to contain
Chapeau de pêche déformé
and
Recette : Brune du capitaine Rumsey
, as well as some healing potions and lures.
Outlands:
The
Sac de trésors de pêche
can contain
L'anneau second
and
Ligne de pêche en vrai-argent filé
, bank alt gear like
Bock orné
,
Monocle de noble
,
Alliance en or
, and
Boutons de manchette antiques en argent
, as well as lucrative vendor trash like
Statuette en argent
and
Pièce ancienne
. Complete all the Outlands dailies and get
Le vieux Barlo
.
Wrath:
The
Sac de trésors de pêche
can contain
Canne à pêche ornée de joyaux
and
Canne à pêche en os
, the pet
Clampant des rivages
,
Minuscule coffret en titane
containing epic gems, vanity items
Canne à pointe de diamant
and
Chapeau de jungle endommagé
, trashy novel
Un roman d'amour torride : Passion boréale
, quest item
Fiole de poison scellée
, and awesome vendor trash
Cloche en porcelaine
. Complete all the Wrath dailies and get
Marcia, elle pêche
.
Cata:
The
Sac des trucs brillants
contains humorous items like
Rocher très malchanceux
,
Vieille carte de « pirate »
, and
Corde de potence
. There's also a small chance it will contain the afore-mentioned fishing poles and pet. Complete all the Cata fishing achievements (including the 4.2 ones) and get
Parti pêcher…
.
There are two fishing contests that require both luck and patience, held on the weekends.
The
is held every Sunday at 2pm, awarding either
Canne à pêche en arcanite
or
Hameçon du maître pêcheur
to the first player who turns in 40
Courbine
, unique fish tied to the contest. Remember to have a stack of water-walking potions on hand to move between pools easily, friends calling out empty areas, and a hearthstone set to Booty Bay. Players who catch several other rare fish can redeem them for interesting items:
Tassergal à dos rayé
for
Bottes de pêche extrême de Nat Pagle
,
Talang dezien
for
Ligne de pêche à toute épreuve en éternium
, and
Scalaire de Keefer
for
Chapeau du pêcheur chanceux
.
The
is held every Saturday at 2pm, awarding either
Anneau de terrible pirate
or
Bottes de la baie
to the first player to redeem
Requin pointe-noire
, fished from any pool in Northrend that contains
Rémora pygmée
. This contest generally is finished in about 6 minutes. Find a place that has several nearby pools (I won this by the pool near Fort Wildevar) and turn your graphics settings down so Dalaran loads quickly when you hearth back.
We've covered
The 2 Ring
earlier; there's also
L'anneau unique
found in major cities and
Cadeau de M. Pince-mi
, as well as
L'anneau cinquième
from
Minuscule coffret en titane
.
Finally, there's some elusive pets from
Fishing
! Too bad they're cute, since they're a pain to farm.
The
Strand Crawler
, as already covered, is a small chance from Wrath and Cataclysm reward bags.
The
Rat d'égout géant
is fished up in the Dalaran Sewers, or more recently, sometimes found in
Sacoche des mystères exotiques
.
Caisse d'écrevisses magiques
is a--not always guaranteed--reward from
Monsieur Pince-mi
. Upon catching
Monsieur Pince-mi
from Furious Crawdad pools in Terokkar, you are able to click on him three times for "wishes." You'll be granted one of the following:
Le bienveillant M. Pince-Mi
,
Cadeau de M. Pince-mi
,
Invocation du furieux M. Pince-moi
,
Bénédiction de M. Pince-mi
, and the pet. Unfortunately, this could mean you use up your three wishes on angry Mr. Pinchys and have to try again for the pet.
The Outlands daily
Les crocilisques sont lâchés
gives you a 10%~ chance to find a cuddly crocodile in your reward bag:
Seau de Chuck
,
Seau de Bourbe-haleine
,
Seau de Patibulle
,
Seau de Chicot
.
Guild Achievements
Maître artisan
requires the guild to craft 500 items with ilvl 359 or higher. It unlocks the guild reward
Cape de coordination
/
Cape de coordination
, essentially a hearthstone to a major city on a 2 hour cooldown.
Encore et toujours de la poussière !
has been changed recently to allow items disenchanted via the loot roll box to count towards the total. Tell your guildmates to send all their BoE greens to an enchanter instead of vending them while leveling to speed this up.
Any type of non-seasonal feast counts towards
Repas de fête
, so drop whichever is the cheapest, if your guild doesn't raid much.
Orfèvre
requires the guild to cut 2,500 gems of at least superior quality. This literally does mean
any
superior-quality gem--gems from Outlands and Wrath will count towards this, even though they have less stats than a Cataclysm green gem.
Mineur majeur
requires the guild to mine 50,000 rocks and ore, down from 100,000 in early Cataclysm.
Nerfed several times,
Maîtrise des mixtures
will unlock
Recette : Chaudron de bataille
and
Le parfait petit chimiste
will unlock
Recette : Grand chaudron de bataille
.
Des bottes plein les bottes
requires the guild to herb 50,000 flowers, down from 100,000.
Ça en fait des appâts !
, requiring the guild to catch 10,000 fish, unlocks the best feast recipe:
Recette : Magnifique festin de fruits de mer
. The quickest way to farm this up is to pick up
Le sang est plus épais que l'eau
in Dalaran, create pools of blood in Borean Tundra, and amass a large number of guildmates to alternate between spawning numerous pools and fishing from them. Blizzard
really
assumes your guild loves fishing, as there are two additional achievements:
Il nous faut un plus gros bateau
and
Zed, j'ai 50 000 poissons dans mes filets
.
Faire chauffer le four thermostat « Cataclysme »
, requiring the guild to cook 5,000 Cataclysm recipes, awarded
Recette : Festin de dragon grillé
. Cooking 10,000 recipes grants
J'ouvre mon propre restau
. Be warned, however, that cooking "easy" food like
Cookie au chocolat
(or anything requiring solely vendor mats) do not count anymore.
Travail d'équipe
, having a guildmate at Honored with each profession maxed at 525, rewards
Bannière de coopération
, the weakest of the guild battle standards.
Ceci est l'histoire
requires guildmates to complete 500 Archaeology solves. This is incredibly easy--a few people leveling the profession should take care of it.
requires the guild to skin 50,000 creatures, which is a large amount. However, with the demand for
Peau en parfait état
in Firelands craftables, progress should be made on this achievement. Try areas like Tol Barad and unphased Sethria's Roost for easy leather.
La puissance de la plume
requires the guild to make 2,500 glyphs. With glyphs now permanently learnt, the market has slowed down a bit, but at least it doesn't require 25,000 anymore.
Well, that should certainly keep you collecting for a while! Again, this isn't meant to provide a source of easy gold, but it's a nice change of pace from raiding or concrete achievement-chasing. You might learn something new along the way or discover that you've got a discontinued pattern on your hands. Either way, happy farming!
