The Argent Tournament Walkthrough: Part I

Hello. As you readers should know by now, my name is Wukki, and I am bringing you tonight a special straight from the PTR: The Argent Tournament Walkthrough. If you do not want to see any spoilers about the Event, please do not click the more button.

This guide was originally written on February 23rd, 2009 and will be consistently updated as the Patch Test Realm changes. Currently, the questline is also complete, so the different parts of the guide may be split up. I apologize, for there is nothing I can do about that.

Please, enjoy this Walkthrough. To view the images in bigger size, just click on them.

I. Getting to the Argent Tournament Grounds

To get to the Argent Tournament Grounds, you must fly up into Icecrown, and  past Sindragosa’s Fall. There, you will find a Coliseum not yet built.

Originally, it is supposed to be that a flight master tells you to go to this place, but it seems to not be implemented yet. So you have to fly there initially.

II. The Goblin Dailies

  These dailies are not required to be completed first before you sign up for the Argent Tournament, but they are the first things you see, so may as well pick them up and keep them until you start your Daily Quest run in Part II.

First, I did the two dailies for these fine goblins here. The  first one requires that you collect stones in the Storm Peaks. You will find the stones near the Terrace of The Makers; you literally cant miss them. There will be a few that are near elites. I suggest not messing with them unless you have a frequent stun ability. Use the bomb on these blocks, and they will split into 2-4 pieces of stone, which will make this quest go by quicker than it seems.

The next quest requires you to head to The Great Tree in Crystalsong Forest, where you must “cut that wood”! You use the axe on these fine looking trees and watch as they cut and fall down. A little hint here: You can hit the axe 2x per tree to save time cutting.

After both of those are done, you head on over to the goblins and turn them in.

III. Entering the Tournament

Next, head to the west side of the camp and look for a big tent. It used to be invisible, but no longer!

The first quest giver is Justicar Mariel Trueheart, who will give you a quest to go to your respective tent (Horde or Alliance), and sign up for the tournament.  The second quest giver will become active at a later date, who currently (as of 2/26/09) gives a broken questline.

When you get to your tent, you will see the registrar and two quest givers. Talk to the registrar, and you will be officially signed up.

“I have now entered the tournament. What do I do?”

Please stay tuned for The Argent Tournament Walkthrough: Part II.
