Yay! its Easter, Where's my Easter egg?
Instead of Easter Sunday, or whatever part of the world you're in, Noblegarden is all about the giving and recieving.
If you're a beginner, and you have no idea, then allow me to explain to you. So, you don't have to feel like a noob having to ask your guild or your friends.
Noblegarden is an Easter event, taking place around April 26th until Saturday, May 2nd. Players who wants to participate the event can start by heading to any low level 5 starting area. For example, Undead starting area would be in Brill, Org and Troll would be in Razor Hill and the Human area would be in Goldshire and so on.
The main Objective is to search for big coloured eggs hidden around the various corner around the starting area. Isn't exciting!! You can also receive tuxedo pants, tuxedo shirt, bunny ears and other goodies, which you can keep or sell.
As for myself, I'm a collector, I collect things. I love collecting pets, us druids loves them little adorable pet. They are s0 CUTE (0^__^0)
Anyhow, as a druid, WE have a huge advantage over other class!!! Thanks to your cheetah form, we should be able to get to the eggs before anyone else.
Okay, so to start participating, just head to one of those starting area there. If you are like me and you will want to head to Orgrimma, then head down to Razor Hill, that's the best place to start collecting your eggs. For Alliance, you will want to head to Goldshire.
Heres a tip, the respawn rate is CRAZY! if you're fast you should be easy to collect one egg per 3 secs. 20 eggs per minute, thanks to your swiftly cheetah form and your Egg Basket. Egg Basket will be giving to you by the NPC when you pick up the quest, which you can spam click to give you an extra 60% increase speed.
I have seen a few strats, one way is to wait in a spot without moving, then Eagle Eye view down, and click. One popular area is around the cactus and another area is right outside the Razor Hill Inn where the NPCs are. You will want to stand between the water and the huge jugs, without moving you can easily get 4 eggs in different location.
From experience, its really slow, if you have patience and don't mind the wait, then that would be the ideal method. But if you are like me, then the best method,is to go cheetah form and look for the eggs. I have collected over 100 eggs in under 30 minutes..
On my second day I almost completed the Noblegarden achievements, having collected over 300 eggs. I spent 100 eggs for the pet, 50 eggs for the Flower Robe, 50 eggs for Flower Spread, which you will need to start doing the achievement.
My best advise is to focus on collecting the eggs, spend at least an hour. After 200 eggs, you will want to buy the items required to complete the Noblegarden Achivements.
The following guide is taken from DruidKitty. I really like her walkthrough, I thought it was well written and very clear to understand. Nicee kitty..
Chocoholic - Eat 100 Noblegarden Chocolates during Noblegarden. During this you will also complete Chocolate Lover (to eat 25).Yay Achievement points!
Spring Fling - Find your pet Spring Rabbit another one to “love” in each of the four towns where your faction is celebrating Noblegarden. There are two ways to get your bunny, and it doesn’t matter to the achievement Gods which one you choose. You can either farm eggs endlessly until you get one to drop, or you can farm 100 eggs and buy it from the vendor. In the course of getting all my eggs I actually got two bunnies. My first was less than a half hour into egg hunting. All you have to do to have your bunny “fall in love” is have him out, he will make quick work of everything else on his own.
Noble Garden - While you are passing through Stormwind, on your way to Goldshire, make sure you complete this one. Hordes version is in Silvermoon City. You can buy these eggs from the Noblegarden Vendors for 5 chocolates. Don’t forget to open up your own egg once you drop it down. I’ve heard of people getting something they needed from their own eggs. They have the same chances to drop items as regular eggs.
Shake Your Bunny-Maker - Using Spring Flowers, you have to place bunny ears on female characters of at least level 18 of each race. While you are running around getting the Spring Fling achievement, keep your eyes out for the rarer females of your own faction, like Female Dwarves. For your opposite faction, Dalaran seems to work very well. You can sit outside their part of the city and hope one will pass on by. The hardest for me to find were Troll and Orc females. Someone also mentioned to me that you could do this in a Battleground as well. You can get your Spring Flowers the same way as your bunny; either from egg drops, or by purchasing them from the vendor for 50 Chocolates. Yep, the best place is Dalaran, also, if you are playing in US time, log on when it is most populated, BG also helps but should be the last resort, this one wot take you anymore then a couple of hours. Its also best to use the trade channel to your advantage. try /2 LF female tauren or /2 WTB female tauren 1g
Blushing Bride - While you are wearing a White Tuxedo Shirt and Black Tuxedo Pants, kiss someone who is wearing an Elegant Dress. All these clothing items drop from eggs, can be purchased from the Noblegarden vendor, or can be traded because they aren’t soulbound. There are also achievements Sunday’s Finest and Dressed for the Occasion for getting these items from the eggs, although these achievements are not needed to complete the Meta Achievement. This one is easy, please do not spend your eggs on them. I collected the Tuxedo Set after my 150th eggs, just be patient, i know my friend collected his set after the 50th eggs.
These next two require some travelling, so grab a travelling buddy, because you’ll need a friend for the first one.
Hard Boiled - Lay an egg in Un’Goro Crater’s Golakka Hot Springs as a rabbit. To become a rabbit, you need a friend with a Blossoming Branch. Remember that from earlier, and how I told you to hang onto it? Here’s where it comes into play. Un’Goro is pretty far away from everything else it seems at first glance. But here is my great tip on how to get there faster, for level 80s. Have you and your travelling buddy go to Sholozar Basin. There is a portal in the southern part of the Basin that will take you to Un’Goro. Switch into cat form to lessen your fall damage, or use slowfall or the like, and jump your way down into the Crater. Once you get to the Hot Spring, on the western side, cast your Blossoming Branch on your friend, and have them do the same for you. Once you are a bunny, just wait until you “lay an egg”, and you’ve got the achievement. Now, head up to the flight path before you think of pressing on your hearthstone. My friend was offline, so I went there myself, its not hard to find other 80s in the zone, trying to complete the same quest. Try /who or /1 LF help with Bunny achievement or /WTB bunny transform 1G
Desert Rose - Use Spring Robes to plant a flower in each of these deserts: The Badlands, Desolace, Silithus, Tanaris, and Thousand Needles. You can get the Robes from eggs or from the vendor. This is the one thing I didn’t have drop for me, so I spent the required 50 Chocolates to pick it up. Not sure why Kitty said to go with a friend. But u can solo this, it does help to have a mage who you can Portal abuse or a mage willing to do the achievements together. They are very friendly, and sometime its good to have a company since the quest is really simple. If not you can alway hearth to Dalaran.
Happy Egg Hunting!
