Cook's Assistant

Cook's Assistant is a secondary quest in the Fractured Plains. Players can start by talking to Slopfinger.

Description	Help Slopfinger in Ghornfell bake a memorable cake for Manktongue.
Start Point	Speak to Slopfinger in the southwestern corner of the Fractured Plains.
Type	Secondary Quest
Requirements	Farming skill unlocked and wheat gathered.
Required items	4 eggs 7 wheats (One is for the cow) 1 bucket of milk (can be obtained by cow outside of the building)
Recommended items	Ingredients to create a lodestone.
Enemies to defeat	Chickens for eggs (Alternatively cutting down trees works) Goblins for wheat seed from their goblin packs

To start the quest, speak to Slopfinger, located in the south-west area of the Fractured Plains, near the border of the Stormtouched Highlands. Speaking to him, you learn that he is trying to make a cake, but his assistant, Manktongue, is ignoring him, so he asks you to assist him in showing that he can prove his worth as a chef. He'll ask you to collect 4 eggs, 6 wheats and 1 bucket of milk. The bucket of milk is the easiest ingredient; there is a cow just outside of the building within a pen. Interact with it and go through all the options, BUT do not milk it, as it will willingly give you milk.

For the rest of the ingredients, it is advised that you build a lodestone at the quest area so you can head over to Bramblemead Valley or Temple Woods to collect some eggs from chickens. Alternatively, you can chop down trees and get a bird nest. Killing goblins is required to collect wheat seeds, or looking through chests.

Once you collect all the ingredients, return to Slopfinger, and he will have you bake the cake for him. After baking the cake, speak to him again, and he will ask that you speak to Manktongue and show him the cake. Speak to Slopfinger one last time to complete the quest.

Congratulations, Quest complete!
