Pilgrim's Bounty Guide
The Pilgrim's Bounty world event is now on live servers and I guess it's worth a small Achievements guide. First let's start with the description from the official site.
Quote from Blizzard staff
We invite you to celebrate Pilgrim's Bounty with us. It's a time for reflecting on your journeys and good fortune, sharing plentiful food, and stories with friends.

You can partake in wonderful Pilgrim's Bounty feasts near major towns by sitting at a Bountiful Table and enjoying the foods you find there.

If you're interested in learning the Pilgrim's Bounty's recipes, speak with an NPC outside any major city. Stuffing and potatoes are easy enough to put in front of a fire, but if you want to cook a turkey, you'll need to catch one first. Unsling your trusty Turkey Shooter and prepare for the hunt.

Type: Seasonal Holiday
Date: November 22 - 28
Major Cities (Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdom Only): Stormwind, Ironforge, Darnassus, Exodar, Orgrimmar, Undercity, Silvermoon City, and Thunderbluff
Minor Towns: Goldshire, Kharanos, Dolanaar, Azure Watch, Razor HIll, Bloodhoof Village, Brill, Tranquilien, Ruins of Thaurissan, Shadowprey Village, Falconwing Square, Stonard, Hammerfall, Revantusk Village, Light's Hope Chapel, Wildhammer Keep, Chilwind Camp, Southshore, Tarren Mill, Sepulcher

Bountiful Tables
Bountiful Tables are the centerpiece of the Pilgrim's Bounty celebration. They are tables loaded with food and surrounded by interactive chairs that allow you to eat and share food with other players via the action bar.

A Bountiful Table is laid out with five different Pilgrim's Bounty foods, one in front of each chair. Each chair has an unlimited supply of one food, and they are conveniently labeled: The Sweet Potato Chair, The Turkey Chair, The Stuffing Chair, The Cranberry Chair, and The Pie Chair. While in a chair, you may eat as much of that food as you like, as well as pass servings of that food to other players sitting in the chairs. Share the bountiful feasts with your friends!

If you eat five helpings of any single food, you'll gain benefits unique to that food. In addition, if you eat five helpings of every food, you'll gain the Spirit of Sharing which lasts one hour and increases reputation gained by 10%. This is accomplished much faster if you work together with your fellow feasters at passing food to one another.

Completing the (A) Pilgrim / (H) Pilgrim meta-achievement will reward you with:


"FOOD FIGHT!"
Sit on one of the chair at a Bountiful table near any capital cities and use the Pass the ... skill to target the chair of another player.


Sharing is Caring
Sit on one of the chair at a Bountiful table near any capital cities and use the Pass the ... skill to target one of the plate at the table. Sit on all 5 chairs and do it for each food.


(H) Pilgrim's Paunch / (A) Pilgrim's Paunch
Sit on one of the chair at a Bountiful table near any capital cities and use the Feast on ... skill of your chair 5 times. Repeat it for all 5 chairs (Cranberries, Pie, Stuffing, Sweet Potatoes, Turkey)

Getting 5 stacks of each food buff will reward you with The Spirit of Sharing, you have to do that in all your capital cities.



(H) Pilgrim's Peril / (A) Pilgrim's Peril
Get a Pilgrim's Attire or Pilgrim's Dress or Pilgrim's Robe from one of the daily quests and pay a visit to the hostile capital cities.


Now Were Cookin'
Oh god! A cooking achievement! You'll have to spend countless hours farming level 10 monsters to level your cooking on your alts and get this stupid achievement !!!! No, just kidding. Actually, this achievement alone is probably the easiest and most interesting one.

All the vendors next to the Bountiful Tables sell a Bountiful Cookbook for 1 silver, this book contains the 5 recipes added to the game with this holiday :


All the reagents required for these recipes are sold by the Bountiful Vendors in the various capital cities, this is clearly stated in the yellow text of each item : Tangy Southfury Cranberries. The only exception is the Spice Bread for Recipe: Spice Bread Stuffing but this is pretty much the first cooking recipe you learn and the reagents are available from any cooking supplies vendor.

Now the funny part! You don't want to spend hours leveling your cooking? You won't have to. You can level your cooking from 1 to 300 just with these 5 recipes in less than 30 minutes, all the reagents are bought from vendors in capital cities and only cost a few coppers. Yes, Blizzard just love you that much. You will also need Wild Turkey from the turkeys you hunt in Elwynn Forest or Tirisfal Glades but you will most likely end up with a lot of it ... See below.


(H) Pilgrim's Progress / (A) Pilgrim's Progress
Now that you have all your cooking recipes, completing the daily quests shouldn't be a problem. They just require you to bring back 20 units of each food to the quest giver next to the bountiful table.


Please note that the daily quests aren't random, you have to visit every capital cities to get all of them from the NPCs next to the Bountiful Tables.


Terrokar Turkey Time
Well ... Go kill Talon King Ikiss while wearing a Pilgrim's Hat and a Pilgrim's Attire or Pilgrim's Dress or Pilgrim's Robe. All these items are rewards from the Pilgrim's Bounty daily quests.


Turkey Lurkey
This one will probably take you a few days, you need Turkey Shooters from the daily quests rewards to change rogues into turkeys. Using the item will destroy it and you will have to run 8 daily quests to get enough shooters to complete the achievements.


The Turkinator
Depending on how many players you have on your server, you will either love or hate this achievement. Your goal is to kill 40 turkeys in a row in Tirisfal Glades or Elwynn Forest, killing a turkey will buff you with one stack of Turkey Tracker and you have 30 seconds to kill the next turkey, etc ...

Even if it sounds simple, it's fairly easy to run out of turkeys and if you attempt to complete this achievement during prime time you will most likely end up insulting someone.

The massive area to the south of SM is also an excellent spot to do it.

Also, finally righteous retribution on Rogues. If only it wasn't destroyed on use.

Free 300-level cooking?  Sure, I'll take it.  Not that I need more than two characters with max-level cooking, but if it's just a fire-and-forget type thing, I may as well.

What I like about this holiday achievement is that there's no randomness to it.  No "pray that the Squashling drops" or "holy crap, I hope I get the right candies and I only have X chances".

Though on my low-pop realm, I'm not looking forward to hunting down Alliance rogues.  Probably get guildies to take turns rolling level one alts.

Does Ikiss have to be on heroic mode, or can he be on Normal mode?

I can't find any dwarf rogues T_T
Egads. This one is annoying.


Perhaps I can have someone make a level 1 instead... or is this limited to lvl 10 and up?

The tables in Stormwind on our server (US Frostmane) are currently bugged. When you sit at say the Pie chair, you are unable to eat the pie. It's blacked out. Also, if you try to pass the pie to another player at the table it says, "invalid target." The other tables at our other three major cities are working properly, however with this you are unable to obtain the Pilgrim's Paunch achievement at this time. Sad

Wondering if any other servers are experiencing this issue?

EDIT: Approximately 1h after posting this, a GM showed up in Elwynn and took the tables away. Within 5 minutes or so, the tables came back and are working properly. Smiley

The fastest way to go between cities like Stormwind and Darnassus (or Thunder Bluff and Silvermoon City), for example, without using your Hearthstone is to go to the Portal to Blasted Lands, near the portal trainers of the capital cities, and go to Outlands and Shattrath City, and use the portals in Shattrath to teleport to the other capital cities.

Completing enough of the normal quests requiring you to cook and hand in a certain amount of X seasonal food will eventually reward you with a Turkey Caller. It spawns a Lonely Turkey which you can kill and loot for one (1) Wild Turkey

Give a crappy tank an epic shield and they will still tank like crap.
Give a skilled tank a green shield and you'll have a great tank.

Here on Steamwheedle Cartel RP, the Stormwind -and- Ironforge tables are bugged. The plates don't show up and we get the "Invalid Target" message too.

I thought I'd point out that yes you do get free 300 cooking - but I actually managed to get to 350 cooking just on the turkey recipe alone (I had quite a few turkeys after doing Turkinator).

So keep going after 300!

I'm confused as to how you can get from 1 to 300 cooking with those five recipes:

Spiced Bread Stuffing - Requires Cooking (1)
Pumpkin Pie - Requires Cooking (100)
Cranberry Chutney - Requires Cooking (160)
Candied Sweet Potato - Requires Cooking (220)
Slow-Roasted Turkey - Requires Cooking (280)

Does the Stuffing recipe really stay green for 99 skill-ups? I would find it hard to believe that even the Pie, Chutney, Potatoes, or Turkey would stay green for 60 skill-ups.

Huh, I guess so then. Nice. And incoming QQ from all those who had to level their cooking "the hard way."

It counts on both normal and heroic.
