Northern Stew

Jillathee is my most recent leveling project, and has turned into the new main on my new server, Wyrmrest Accord (and yeah, I really love rogues, more on that in the future.

Interestingly, Jill is also the only character I've played that didn't have some sort of significant health regeneration baked into the character. Warlocks drain life, Death Knights have death strike, and my priest and druid have healing spells. So I have gone through a lot of bandages and food on Jill. For the most part, I manage to break even - I have an assortment of foods in my bags that I've pickpocketed. It's somewhat annoying, since there's like five different stacks of food, but I've got big bags. I still have to buy a stack of vendor food every so often, and that is kind of annoying. It sets you back a noticeable amount of gold.

As a side-effect of leveling leatherworking, I've got a lot of chilled meats (and tufts of gorilla hair, and barrels, so now you know where I've been skinning). I usually keep a stack or two of these handy for the cooking daily, and vendor the rest.

I should have been cooking the chilled meats. Northern Stew is as good as the expensive vendor food in terms of health regen, and it vendors for more than chilled meats do to boot, so if I still have too much stuff it's worth cooking the stew before vendoring it.

I wish I had known this four characters ago. I wonder if there are any auctions I could buy out - buy up chilled meats for 25s per piece, cook them and vendor the stew for 35s per.
