A “concise” guide to the Noblegarden event

Alright ladies and gentlemen, Noblegarden has started.

Let's get to work.

---

---

Summary :

Get around starter towns, look for the eggs, loot some chocolate from the eggs and buy the rewards from the nearby vendors. No special boss, nothing fancy – quick and easy.

Alliance towns :

• Goldshire (Elwynn Forest)
• Kharanos (Dun Morogh)
• Dolanaar (Teldrassil – get there with Zidormi's help if you're 110+)
• Azure Watch (Azuremyst Isle)

Horde towns :

• Razor Hill (Durotar)
• Bloodhoof Village (Mulgore)
• Brill (Tirisfal Glades – get there with Zidormi's help if you're 110+)
• Falconwing Square (Eversong Woods)

---

---

Restrictions :

Technically none, however two rewards are level-restricted, and one of them is also class-restricted :

• Swift Springstrider is a mount, so it requires at least level 20 (and the first mount skill)
• Tome of Polymorph: Rabbit requires a level 60+ Mage (and it's bound on pickup on top of that)

In short : yes, you can get everything except the mage tome on a starter/unsubscribed account (level 20 max).

Rewards :

When you open a Brightly Colored Egg you found, most of the time you'll get exactly 1 Noblegarden Chocolate and nothing else. Those chocolates are the event's currency.

Take note of the "most of the time" : some rewards can also drop from the eggs instead of a chocolate.

Here's the full reward table :

Tips & tricks :

• Most important : don't buy anything until you have all the chocolates you'll need. You can loot some of the rewards in the eggs, lowering the grind. As an example, I got the mount after ~400 eggs, removing 500 chocolates from the total cost. Barring some extreme case of unluckyness, you should get all the droppable rewards way before you have all the chocolates.
• Don't run around – stay in one spot and farm the same few eggs around you. They respawn incredibly fast.
• Other players will come and take the eggs right under your nose. Like in real life. Deal with it like a decent fellow.
• Take this event like an idle/clicker game, so prepare youself for a mind-numbing grind. Good thing you only need a few hours to get everything.
• Two nice macros (adapt for your game's language) :
  • /use Brightly Colored Egg : will open an egg in your inventory. Spam until you can't open anything else. Why ? because eggs themselves can't be placed on the action bars, but a macro can.
  • #showtooltip Noblegarden Chocolate : will show your current number of chocolates in your inventory. Also has the added benefit of not eating a chocolate if you mistakenly click it.

Achievements

Meta-achievement : Noble Gardener (title : "<name> the Noble").

Pretty much self-explanatory, but keep in mind that you'll need 100 more chocolates for Chocoholic, and another 5 for Noble Garden (A) / Noble Garden (H). Everything else will be looted/bought during the chocolate grind.
