Can't get orders from this guy during the event. Not sure if that's working as intended or needs to be fixed. :s

Comment by Krolabar

Just did the event here is what I found.

1) Quest (weekly?/daily?) doesn't need to be done in a specific soup event. I had 3 of 5 actions compete from prior day (monday to a tuesday), and completed after doing 2 actions.

2) Event says to talk to Big Kinook, but you can't. Periodically your SPECIAL ACTION BUTTON will appear, you click, you get credit towards your 5 actions and also 25 REP. You keep getting the random actions regardless of whether you are on quest or not.

3) at the end (was legendary soup), baddie appeared, I got a 363 waist, 50 rep, random reagents, Dragon Isle Supplies.

So dont worry if you can't interact, with the Big K, it still works. Just be sure to tag that BOSS at the end, it dies fast!

He's big, and his name is Kinook. That's enough for me, should be enough for anyone.

Comment by playgirl4eva

The soup must be legendary to spawn the boss at the end. Without the boss at end there is no loot. when doing this Kinook will give you tasks to complete the more you complete the closer to the legendary you get. You will also receive more loot depending on how many tasks you complete.

Yes chef!

If you get the task "Help Big Kinook Supervise the others," you will get an extra action bar with your bossy orders.

Comment by Ansen

im convinced at this point he can only gives a certain amount of tasks at once. when he gives people the ones that make them fish or buy something from the guy that do not have a timer attached to the task, and they are just afk trying to farm free rep, they dont even know they have a task and it reduces the amount of overall tasks being handed out. This is what I think is causing the issues.

Comment by Aoibheil

Is there a timer so that we can know when the event is about to happen?

Comment by FightingFish

He needs to get his shoulder looked at.

Comment by steinmetz342

I'm convinced this fat ass has no idea what he's doing.

Comment by Dazzix

I want to be a Big Kinook when I grow up.

Comment by mastergame5

If you try to stand on the Communal Pot, Big Kinook will swat you off of it while saying

You'll spoil the broth!

You can get on top of the pot by jumping on Big Kinooks Stool and hopping onto the pot.

Comment by Stormbringer4190

so annoying that he gives you orders for fishing even when you don't have fishing skilled, need to fly out of iskaara and back to reset it

In case anyone is curious...

This is the text that is shown when players get the instructions to "taste the soup and report your findings back to Big Kinook":

(I'll update as I get more information, since he only lets you complete the dialogue options once -- so it will take several Feasts to get all the options recorded)

The bubbling of the soup stands before you, its aroma getting better by the minute. Big Kinook has offered you the rare opportunity to taste this soup before it's finished.

You'd better not mess this up.

<Sniff the soup.>
<Taste the soup.>

Instantaneously, your mouth is coated with the richest, fishiest broth you have ever experienced. Flavors you once thought impossible are revealed to you as the unctuous bits of ocean critter sail past your tongue. You dream of the sea, of your childhood, and of Azeroth's future all at once.

Yeah, it's pretty good.

<Now give the soup a good sniff.>
<Take another taste, this time more carefully.>

A second taste reveals that the soup... WHILE AMAZING... has some distinct areas of opportunity.

First, there's something off about the flavor profile. The seasoning is excellent, and there aren't any unpleasant flavors, but there's just... something.

The mouthfeel could also be better. Is it too thick? Too slimy? Too... wiggly? Further investigation is required.

<Take a third taste, this time with your eyes closed.>
<Take a third taste, this time with your nose pinched.>

Aha! There it is.

Pinching your nose has removed all aromas, really allowing you to really focus on flavor. You can detect a bit of sourness which - while interesting - is not what this soup needs. Not today.

A bit of cream will buffer out that acid and bring the soup back into balance.

<You should report your findings to Big Kinook.>

Again, I will update this with the text I get from the other options as I do more Feasts and get this set of instructions! :)
