SECTION I Cooking 1 - 525 (for toons below level 85 and those who are Level 85)
With this Craft Faire a whole new approach will be used to level folks from Cooking Level 1 to 525. The upside is: You will be able to level to Cooking 525 much quicker than in the past. Now the downside is: You will need about 360 Gold to pay for training from We will have a Cooking Team Mage standing by to record your information (name, level, etc.). After grouping, you will be portaled to The Shrine Of The Two Moons where you will be met by Chef Tynchal. You will be introduced to the Two Moons Flightmaster (if you haven't already met) to facilitate your return to Silvermoon when you are finished. Then, Tynchal will hand you all the Golden Carp and Wildfowl Breasts you will need to use to go with the vendor supplied Cooking mats you will need to buy from Sungshin Ironpaw, Cooking Trainer at Halfhill Market; then, you'll hop aboard Tynchal's Vial Of The Sands mount and fly to Halfhill, meeting the Flightmaster there. When you have finished leveling to 525, you can fly back to Two Moons then run upstairs and use the Silvermoon portal to return if desired.
I could list all the recipes you will use, but there is no real need for that. You can figure it out yourself.
1. Learn a recipe. 2. Buy the ingredients from Sungshin Ironpaw. 3. Make the recipe until it turns yellow. 4. Learn new recipe. 5. Repeat this until you reach 526.
Don't forget to learn the new ranks of cooking at 50, 125, 275, 350 and at 425! Learning the new ranks and the recipes will cost around 340 gold.
As I mentioned before, there are parts where you need some [Golden Carp](42 in total). These parts are at:
61 - 91 6 x [Toasted Fish Jerky] - 6 Golden Carp 271 - 331 6 x [Golden Carp Consomme] - 12 Golden Carp and 6 x [Fish Cake] - 12 Golden Carp 421 - 451 6 x [Green Curry Fish] - 12 Golden Carp, 6 Rice
SECTION II Cooking 1 - 525 (for toons level 85 or higher)
This is the guide that you can use as long as you can get to Sungshin Ironpaw at Halfhill Market. You do HAVE to be at least level 85 to do this, but it makes the first 525 points so much easier. You should begin with your Cooking Skill Level at a multiple of 5; for instance, if you are 231, get to 235, then head to Halfhill and you can use the new method. After the updates from Patch 5.4 Cooking has become much easier at the Craft Faire; and, it is THE fastest way to level your Cooking skill from 1 to 525. Otherwise, it would take many days because you would need to do daily quests to get the Epicurean Awards for the recipes from the trainers in Orgrimmar and/or The Undercity.
Every recipe grants 5 skillups per craft up to 525 as long as they're orange. A few of the recipes require Golden Carp. You will also need two Wildfowl Breast, and The Craft Faire, will provide the mats and Top Chef Geillis will portal you to either Org or to Two Moons so you can make your way to the Halfhill Market in Valley of the Four Winds and talk to Sungshin Ironpaw.
The recipes are very sequential and the ingredients are all at the same area so no issues there APART from the 42 Golden Carp that are required at selective points. They can be fished from any river, pond or lake in Pandarian.
1-525
Talk to Sungshin Ironpaw and accept the quest "So You Want to Be a Chef...". Make 5 Sliced Peaches, and turn in the quest. Talk to her again and learn recipes until you reach Cooking Skill Level 520. Accept the quest "Ready for Greatness", make 5 Rice Pudding, and turn in the quest. She will award you Zen Master Cooking and gives you the opening to the "Master Of the Ways" achievement and the various Stat Foods that are grouped for a change!
- Learn a recipe.
- Buy the ingredients from Sungshin Ironpaw.
- Make the recipe until it turns yellow.
- Learn new recipe.
- Repeat this until you reach 525. Don't forget to learn the new ranks of cooking at 50, 125, 275, 350 and at 425! Learning the new ranks and the recipes will cost around 340 gold.
Cooking 525-600
OK On to the fun part! 6 new quests now open up, 1 for each Cooking specialization. As I said before do the Ways in the order in this guide only, guarantees both 600 and the Meta "Master of the Ways" with mats stated. Five of the Ways are associated with 1 primary stat and one with getting drunk. My personal FAVE ! ! "HIC" !
You may pick only one of the Ways to level up during the Craft Faire, preferably the one that supports your primary stat. The remaining 5 ways will be up to you to do on your own. So the 6 Ways are:
- Agility - Way of the Wok
- Strength - Way of the Grill
- Stamina - Way of the Oven
- Intellect - Way of the Pot
- Spirit - Way of the Steamer
- Getting drunk - Way of the Brew
These specializations are not exclusive; you can learn all 6 on a single character. In fact for the Meta you have to learn all 6 ! !
You gain cooking skill in each Way separately. As to your overall skill it is always equal to your highest skill in any Way. At 575, all Ways get recipes for a 10 man and a 25 man Banquet, that will increase stats by 250. Note that the Banquets are not bound to the Way's stat; a Mage like me eating from a Banquet of the Steamer will still get 250 Intellect from it, yet the Way of the Steamer is associated with Spirit. This fact is solo cool ! !
At 600 you can learn the ultimate recipe of a Way, which allows you to create food that increases the Way's associated stat by 300. This again HAS to be done on ALL Ways for the Meta and title, Yes! I said Master Of The Ways is a META achievement! Each Way levels up via a similar method: First you need to Complete a quest to learn the cooking Way. All quests start from Sungshin Ironpaw, and require ingredients to be delivered to the Way's trainer. Each of the sets are named below, with material totals as well.
