Protection of the Cabbage Spoiler
Completed this quest about 30 minutes ago, and here is the spoiler, in all it's badly coded up glory (too tired for anything flash). As far as I am aware, I am the first player server-wide to complete the quest! Rar!
Here is the post I made on EqTraders:
Ok here is the complete rundown of pretty much every little step involved in the quest., and notes on my findings. Might look a big nasty, but it's 6am, and I need a break:) Plus all this baking is making me damned hungry....
My expenditures to completion equal roughly 16k, although while verifying the Champagne recipie I did go overbaord and try 2 stacks of Brut for a friend's wedding, so that's another 1200pp or so hehe
Verifying the Ceremonial Solstice Robe was a pain because of the gemmed chain, failed 13 times at modified skill of 210.
The pie drove me nuts all day because I knew how to make the paste, I just couldnt find the sap. Saw it on vendors all the day before, but had to spend 6 hours looking for it today.
Total skill ups:
1 for pottery, Smithing and Baking, so I need to update my sig again.
And now the recipies!
