Crafting: Cook Quest

This quest is for Cooks that have maxxed out their experience (360) at the Expert level. You will need to complete this quest before you can continue to earn XP, and to open up new recipes.

You can get this quest from any Novice Cook; the one I happened to be near was Petunia, in Michel Delving. She does not want you to stop improving, so urges you to speak with Rollo Hamson to gain some advice.

STEPS:



1) Talk to Rollo Hamson. Petunia says:

"Rollo Hamson is a cook of great skill somewhere in Buckland. His home is quite near to the Brandywine Bridge, and if you seek him out he may have some advice for you."


Head into Buckland, and you'll find Rollo tucked away in an area surrounded by tall hedges (31.8s, 62.7w). Rollo tells you that you cannot keep using the same ovens if you wish to progress. He will let you access Superior ovens, if you take his "challenge."

2) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you receive a new title (Expert Cook), as well as gaining the Characteristic: Craft Cook Complete Proficiency Tier 3, and you will now be able to take the next quest, The Short Order Cook.
