Goblin Gumbeaux Kettle changes in World of Warcraft patch 2.2

Goblin Gumbeaux Kettle changes in Blizzard's World of Warcraft patch 2.2  - Image 1Food is an awesome asset to have in World of Warcraft. It either buffs or heals characters, making raids a whole lot easier. One of the methods of providing food for a raid is the Goblin Gumbeaux Kettle which you can obtain from a special WoW TCG Loot Card.

Currently, this item requires its user to be level 40 and creates five servings of gumbo which buffs up your character for five minutes with a poison effect. In addition, you’ll notice the characters burping green smoke at random.

A big problem of this item is the few number of servings compared to its one hour cooldown. These limitation make it too unwieldy for use by larger groups. Changes are slated for this item as Blizzard Poster/ Forum Moderator Drysc noted in the forums:

It’s being changed in 2.2, as is the Spectral Tiger Mount. I don’t have the changes in front of me but from memory the one hour cooldown is remaining, but anyone will be able to loot from it, it will provide unlimited pots of Gumbeaux, and the pot will remain on the ground for three minutes.

It’s going to be a burping good time, and raid leaders everywhere rub their temples in attempts to ease their nerves…


This change makes this item a very viable way of buffing an entire party. The unlimited servings should serve larger parties well, and if you have a couple of these kettles among your members, you could easily keep your party buffed for the entire instance.
