Turkinator

Another achievement, and now I need only three rogues (gnome, troll and orc) in order to complete the Pilgrim set.

Having tried a number of times in Elwyn Forest, I followed some advice and went off to Venomweb Vale in Tirisfal Glades. Passing westwards through the Bulwark, I got the first ten before I even got over the ridge into the Vale, and I could quite possibly have got 50 or 60 in total.

It helps that there's a nice area with everything non-hostile being a turkey, unlike Elwyn. And that there was nobody else hunting at 9:20 in the morning.

Oi, Alliance scum, stay out of Tirisfal! :p

I just need a troll, would have got it last night (in two nights) if I hadn't bought the boots.

Around the east and north of Eastvale Logging Camp in Elwynn, there are lots of turkeys and they're the only neutral beasts. That's where I got it done. Tracker Snacks helped, too, so they show up on the minimap.

And if you don't have cooking, now's the time to do it - the recipes from the event vendor can take you from 1-300 with only the ingredients from outside each city, costing a few copper each.

Contrariwise, if you're so good a cook as to have got the Chef's Hat, now is the time to wear it. (It saves quite a bit of time cooking.)

Bonus tip: If your raid is taking a 5 minute break and you decide to do some cooking, don't wear the chef's hat. Because then when someone ninja pulls a pack and you have to tank, you then don't forget to swap the chef's hat for your tanking hat until after the end of ulduar.

Oh no, I wouldn't do that. Definitely not.

Well, not more than once.

This is why atm I have helm showing :)

I tried over there, but at the time I did, there were too many others around. Venomweb Vale is great, because there's pretty much nothing in there to get in your way.

I found that area of Tirisfal to be good; just SE of the Monastery was where I got the achievement.

All I need now for the meta is Ikiss and one troll rogue. Unfortunately, there only appears to be one troll rogue on ER, and he's occasional at best.

There's a female troll rogue around - she was on the southern bank steps in Dal for a bit yesterday - wearing that pink dress from the easter stuff.

There's always the option of a couple of guild members creating a troll rogue character then telling everyone else in the guild where they can be found... :-)

Or maybe just cheating getting creative - rolling a troll and an orc rogue, and running them outside Ogrimmar to the tables.

(I do have a Gnome rogue sitting by a mailbox down Tanaris way, but of course, I can't tag myself.)

So, the marital telepathy takes 2 minutes to travel ~16 miles...

I have a gnome rogue in Shattrath - just yell if you still need to tag one and I'm around. I have no free slots on ER, but I think Beeblebug has, maybe he could create the necessary :) I'll mention it later.

Ikiss I soloed, so a small group should have no problem.

(And I had the pilgrim boots on, just for the extra penalty. In fact, nothing visible in the way of armour.)

Around Brill is definitely the place to do it.
