The majority of you know that you can level up cooking really fast during the Pilgrim's Bounty holiday. Just learning all the recipes gets you pretty high. And if you're willing to farm and cook turkeys, they can get you easily to 325 or so...

Well, they USED to get you to 325. Now it's bugged. This year you get guaranteed skill ups for cooking turkeys until 405, and chance at until 430. In fact, people are reporting 2 points per turkey until 405. Yes the skill turns grey early, no it does not stop giving points.


So yeah, if you need to get your cooking on, kill/buy turkeys. It sounds very much worth it.


Other hints: I have not checked this year, but last year you could not mail them. But you CAN trade them. Meaning you can trade them to a second account (or person willing to help) and retrade them to your alts. So no need to farm on multiple alts, just ask a guildie for help. Use a fast moving high level for best results, and a /tar macro will help you.
