Tips[]
- Where to get [Giant Eggs]: Rocs (level 41+) and Fire Rocs (level 43) in Tanaris are the most convenient source, but there are many large birds in other zones dropping Giant Eggs, too (e.g. Owlbeasts in Hinterlands, Winterspring and Felwood. WARNING: At level 35, it will be practically impossible to gather the eggs on your own as the lowest level creatures needed to be killed to drop these items is level 41. The best drop rates occur in the level 48-52 range. It is recommended to either purchase the eggs from the Auction House or have a higher level friend obtain them for you.
- Where to get [Zesty Clam Meat]: The most reliable source of [Big-Mouth Clams] (which drop Zesty Clam Meat) are Tidal Striders at the beach south of Gadgetzan. Various shoreline mobs (level 35+), such as Crabs, Murlocs, Naga, Threshers and Turtles, also drop them.
- Where to get [Fine Aged Cheddar]: You can buy it from any standard vendor that sells food and drinks.
You must have a cooking skill of 225 to start this quest.
It should be noted that players who have farmed Bloodsail reputation in order to achieve that title will be unable to receive this quest until they hit unfriendly reputation again with Gadgetzan.
