Profession Guides (including Cooking)

Hi, good .   Players of World of Warcraft know that it’s rough out there on the battlefields of Azeroth. Fighting takes a lot out of you, and there’s nothing like a fine meal to get you back in combat mode. A WoW Cooking Guide is a handy item for those ready to learn about the healing powers of good food.

You will receive meat from various places on Azeroth, and by various, I mean everywhere. This meat is then turned into food. It is probably quite
tempting to sell these morsels to vendors for cash; money makes the world go round.

Players with non-healing classes and players who prefer the calm, quiet method of soloing should wait before rushing to a merchant. Selling it is often counterproductive, because you will probably have to buy food from a vendor if you don’t make it yourself, and making your own food is nearly free.

Though it may not seem as important as other professions such as Blacksmithing on the outside, Cooking can be very beneficial in battle. All foods have an immediate health boost when eaten. Some cooked foods, however, have a buff known as the Well Fed effect that come in 15, 30, or 60 minute intervals. Remember, that is in addition to the boost already received just by eating.

While reading this WoW Cooking Guide, you are possibly wondering which classes benefit from Cooking. All classes, from melee and tank fighters to healers, have use for quality cuisine.

All chefs in Azeroth require three elements when cooking: a recipe, ingredients, and heat. Recipes can be bought from trainers. The main ingredient in cooking is the meat from the beasts and fish found throughout the world. Heat can only come from a Cooking Fire, never a Forge. Braziers, campfires, fireplaces, and stoves, provide the proper Cooking Fire for making food.

Any profession, including Cooking, requires training. You can usually find a trainer near a fire or cooking pot. If you have trouble locating one, the guards in the cities are always available for directions. You will become an Apprentice at this point and be ready to get cooking.

As mentioned in the WoW Cooking Guide above, a brazier, fireplace, and stove are fine for cooking. Campfires are more versatile, however, providing more options than the other Cooking Fires, and can be fashioned anywhere. It is therefore advisable to carry flint and tinder as well as wood with you. You never know when you’ll need to recover from an attack by a beastly non-player character or some blood thirsty player who is in the mood to fight.

Fishing is not a prerequisite for Cooking, but is an effective skill to combine with it. Recipes using the fish you catch provide better healing and can be found anywhere.

Since meals created by Cooks are better food and therefore possess more healing benefits, Cooking can lead to additional income. Advertise the benefits and sell it at a reasonable price, and other players will be sure to buy food from you.

So get on your way into the culinary delights of Azeroth with this WoW Cooking Guide, and have fun becoming a chef in demand!

I hope you found this WoW Cooking Guide helpful.

All the best
