The Argent Tournament Walkthrough: Part II

Welcome back. If you have gotten this far, I assume you have found my walkthrough at least semi readable. The same measures apply to this post as they did the last one.

More under the cut!

IV. The Faction Dailies

When you enter your tent, you will come across three NPC’s standing in the middle of it. One is the Registrar, and the other two are daily quest givers. Currently, as far as I can tell, you are given three daily quests. The daily quests from

1. Learning the Reigns

  Learning the Reigns is an interesting daily, as its sole purpose is to teach you how to do mounted combat, such as Aces High taught you Malygos phase 3. After picking it up from the quest giver, head over to the stables near the flight master, and pick up your furred (or feathered if you are horde) steed.

The Charge Target!

Your first target is likely to be the Tournament Charge Target. This target can only be defeated by using the mounted combat ability: charge.

The Block Target!

Your second target is likely to be the Tournament  Blocking Target. You have to attack it, and then use the mounted combat ability: block to deflect the deadly blow.

The Attack Target!

Your third target is finally going to be the  Tournament Attack Target. You have to use the Mounted Combat Ability: Ranged Attack to defeat it. Don’t use melee attacks, otherwise it will hurt your steed very badly.

After that, turn in your quest, and you are done!

2. Training in the Field

Training in the field is a simple daily. Just go out into Icecrown and kill 10 Scourge. Yep, that is it, plain as day.

3. Rotating Dailies

The daily quests below are given by the middle guy who is standing behind the registering orb in your respective tents. So far, two quests are known.

A Blade Fit for A Champion

This is a rather odd and peculiar daily, reminiscent of Mojo the Frog. You need to head out to Grizzly Hills, to the Ashwood lake, and kiss a frog.

So fly to Grizzly Hills, and when you get there, please check your bags for your “Warts-B-Gone-Lip-Balm” and drink it. Don’t make the same mistake I did and skip it, thinking you didn’t need it. If you kiss a frog without it, you get a warts debuff that lasts an hour. Which means an hour waiting to do the daily quest. Also, it doesn’t fade on logout. So please don’t forget!

So, you are at the lake, and you have to kiss every frog you see. You also have to reapply the lip-balm every single time. I may have had bad luck, but it took me about 26 individual frog kisses to get the sword, so be prepared to kiss frog for quite a while. Note: You can get the item from someone else’s maiden if they proc her before you do.

The Edge of Winter

This quest first appeared on the Server 2/26/09 after PTR patch 9626. It requires you to kill a fire revenant in Crystalsong Forest by the name of Lord Everblaze, then go to Howling Fjord to free a maiden encased in ice. 

Head to Crystalsong Forest, to where the star is on the image to the left, and you will find a terrace with little fire elementals  around it. Wait around for Lord Everblaze to spawn, kill him, then loot his Everburning Ember.

Fly down to Howling Fjord. In the middle of lake Winter’s Breath Lake, you will find a maiden, frozen in ice. Use the Everburning Ember on the maiden, and she will gift you with the Winter’s Edge.  

 

 A Worthy Weapon

Go to the damn that borders Icecrown and Crystalsong, and collect 4 Winter Hyacinth.

After collecting the four, fly to northern Dragonblight, near the Grizzy Hills / Zul’Drak border, to Drak’Mar Lake. Upon  Arrival, you will see a circle of stones in the middle of the lake. This is where you will offer the flowers. Upon offering, the maiden comes, and you get your blade.
