World of Warcraft news » Noblegarden is Coming: April 8 - April 14

Though its origins are steeped in druidic festivals from times long past, the current incarnation of Noblegarden is a contrast between ancient traditions and modern interpretations. While some races of Azeroth try to stay true to the original spirit of the holiday, others prefer a more lighthearted approach -- in essence, looking everywhere for festively decorated eggs and collecting the goodies found within. One tenet all can agree on is that the feast of Noblegarden is meant to bring communities together to share the joy of life and friendship.



During Noblegarden, the towns of Azeroth and their immediate environs are liberally sprinkled with Noblegarden eggs for players to collect in a ravenous frenzy -- er, in the spirit of sharing. These eggs contain treats fit for commoners and kings alike!

Activities

  • Egg Hunt: Search in low-level towns throughout Azeroth for brightly-colored eggs; some are well-hidden, while others are in plain view. Their contents vary, but they most often contain chocolate (the delicious currency of Noblegarden), rare special items, and ‘vanity’ items (like toys & costumes). Some eggs will have truly surprising contents.
  • Race against fellow heroes in an egg-gathering blitz to grab as many Brightly Colored eggs as you can! Increase your speed in egg hunt areas with the Egg Basket, available from Noblegarden Vendors and Merchants.
  • Daily Quests: The Great Egg Hunt rewards you with gold and humanoid-transforming Blossoming Branches for delivering excess eggshells gathered during your travels.
  • Noblegarden Merchants & Vendors: These professional hoarders hope to benefit from your egg hunting by exchanging trinkets for Noblegarden chocolate. They’ll trade food, toys that transform others into rabbits (or rabbit-like humanoids), festive clothes, mounts, and more for your leftover confections.

Item Rewards

Mounts
  • Swift Springstrider: This mount has a chance to be found inside Brightly Colored Eggs, and it’s also available from Noblegarden Merchants and Vendors in exchange for chocolates.

Vanity Items

  • Circlets: Adorn yourself with differently colored rabbit ears in ancestral Noblegarden tradition!
