It was the same thing when they first removed the fish, very difficult to buy. Now many players fish. I'm sure the same will happen with cooking.
Until then, I know of at least three people besides myself that can cook. I hadn't intended to get into selling without a marketplace or AH. But here goes anyway. If you supply mats and time it when I can go AFK it's free (tips accepted). Otherwise we can discuss. Note that I don't keep mats on hand, you have to let me know in advance so I can gather.
(cult: If you're listening, maybe we can extend OCD to cooking as well. Kind of like a Burger 'n Brew.)
edit. Special discount for tanks and prophets if I'm running ascended dungeons with you. Also discounts if you pay in gems.
Thats certainly possible, but Lets give some others a chance first to put something up by themselfs
Although, I honestly think that it isn't very rewarding to be in the cooking business.
You need 4 different gatherers: farming/foraging/fishing/Skinning and offcourse a cook.
It's very unlikely you will Find enough guys having all 5, so you will end up deviding ingredients between people. Thats not too bad.. But when it comes down to the rewards (the money you make out of it)...It isn't worth all the hassle and coordination of ingredients (there is no shared vault, so the different gatheres need to be online at the same time)
Besides, you only use 1 food an hour..The time one places a new order takes too long to have a nice continued supply.
We already having these small difficulties in our pot industry. We only make some profit on the small Hp/mp pots, Because they are easy to gather and used more than only 1 an hour.
But, Yeah, we still need them. Someone up for the challenge..?
