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 :
Type | Item | Cost | Can drop from eggs | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Appearance | Black Spring Circlet | 50 | No | Event-restricted transmog |
Appearance | ![]() | 25 | Yes | Event-restricted transmog |
Appearance | Blue Spring Circlet | 50 | No | Event-restricted transmog |

Appearance | Elegant Dress | 50 | Yes | Event-restricted transmog |

Pet (combat) | Noblegarden Bunny | 200 | No | – |
Pet (combat) | Spring Rabbit's Foot | 100 | Yes | The pet is named "Spring Rabbit" |
Pet (passive) | Mystical Spring Bouquet | 100 | No | – |
Toy | Noble Gardener's Hearthstone | 250 | No | Alternative Hearthstone |
Misc | Blossoming Branch | 10 | Yes | Consumable (5 charges) |
Misc | Spring Flowers | 50 | Yes | Not transmoggable |
Misc | Noblegarden Egg | 5 | No | Make your own egg hunt ; same content as a regular egg (so you lose 4 chocolates overall) |
In total, you'll need about 1700 chocolates (if you're an incredibly unlucky level 60+ Mage).
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.
