Best Stats and Gear Guide for Cooking in Midnight
This page details the best Midnight Cooking stats and gear, and how they can be used to maximize profession output.
Crafting Stats for Cooking in Dragonflight
All stats have their uses, but for Cooking we recommend focusing on Multicraft and Resourcefulness, to make the most out of your reagents, although Crafting Speed could also be interesting to speed up a large batch of crafts.
For more information on profession stats and gear, please refer to our dedicated guide.
Best Cooking Gear
Cooks can use two pieces of gear and the best gear available is:
Thalassian Chef's Chapeau, made by Tailoring;
Gilded Sin'dorei Rolling Pin, made by Inscription.
Quality is a big factor in the stats you can get from the gear. Green versions are bind on equip and from trainer recipes, but blue and higher versions require specialization, faction, or renown grinding for their recipe and are bind on pickup, requiring you to submit a Crafting Order for them.
Also, remember to enchant your primary tool with
Enchant Tool - Haranir Multicrafting.
Best Cooking Consumables
Consider using optional reagents such as
Bazaar Bites on expensive crafts
that can benefit from their one-time boosts, such as Feasts.
Gear Cooking Can Make For Other Professions
Cooking cannot make gear for use by other professions.
