Noble Garden Achievement

[xxdksxx]

Well thanks to Zygor i got my Noble Garden Title in a matter of hours. Just as i expected its a very amazing guide thank you Zygor.

Just finished off the last Noblegarden achievement myself and got the title. It's my first title and I'm proudly wearing it.

I'm only a level 46 so I didn't have all of the flight paths but it all worked out.

Great job team! Tomorrow I'm going to run through the quest line.

Just finished mine off too for my first completed event and title. Took me about 4 hours due to fighting everyone for eggs and then waiting for that damn ugly female orc to show up in Dalaran.

lol, I got mine quite early... my dad dragged me to the casino so I couldn't finish the Shake your tail maker quite as quick as I'd like, I left the travelling part because I knew the Zygor Guide would have the best paths for that. Afterwhich I just finished within 30min :)

having problems getting eggs - way too many people hunting them...


however I did notice that the guide is not keeping track of eaten chocolates...

[AcidRaZor]

Yea I doubt they're able to keep track of eaten chocolates. The step is skipped automatically when you reach the achievement though.

And depending on where you are, a big tip I can give you is to run around in an anti-clockwise circle and get as many eggs as possible.

I had quite a bit of competition as well in Dolanaar but I was able to do about 80+ eggs in a relatively short time. The trick is to get to the egg and click on it before anyone can AND KEEPING YOUR EYES OPEN.

You can't believe how many people runs past eggs not picking them up because they're not AS visible as others :) That is why I recommend the anti-clockwise (or possibly clockwise, depends) way because you'll be able to spot the eggs a lot faster as well.

Else just camp and wait it out. It's going to take a bit longer but if you sit under the one "entrance bridge" in Dolanaar, 2 eggs spawn there. Or you could go to the tree with 3 bushes, there's 3 that spawn sometimes. Luckily your "reach" to click on an egg is quite long so you don't have to run around for those 3. You might possibly even reach a 4th if you're in the right spot.

Once you've done the 2 quests there you don't need to stay in Dolanaar for the achievement chocolates. When I was running around it was quite obvious that the least populated area to find eggs was in Kharanos. Also the best times to go for them are around 3-4am.

I noticed the guide was not tracking eaten chocolate so I simply turned on tracking for the achievement and then I had a counter to let me know how much further I had.

By the time I ate 100 chocolates I had found 5 branches, pants, robes, flowers and ears. The shirt was being annoying. I saw we can buy the items as well so kept going. By the time I collected 100 (I also want the tomb for my mage) I got the pet and the robes. I kept collecting and got to 165 and still did not get the dress but have enough to buy the tomb and dress ... now I just need to find the vender :rolleyes: In the end I collected 265 eggs and it was MUCH faster in Exodar waiting until after 11pm.

[cabby]

To find the vendor just load up the quest guide for Noblegarden. The vendor is one of the 2 quest givers and takes no time at all to do the quests.

What tomb?

I was at Azure Watch, and used pretty much the same tactics.

I was especially surprised at all players who did NOT constantly use the sprint from the egg basket though. My tip is to equip the basket and action button it to a key. Every time you come off sprint hit it again. I was in sprint mode most of the time while hunting, and got the eggs very fast.

I also found it was best to skip eggs that had anyone starting to head for them. Often I would get there first and right click it, but they got the egg. Probably due to network lag.

Oh yeah, set up your Noble gear setup as an equipment set. Make sit easy to switch in and out.

Cheers,
Neevor

Mage polymorph rabbit == 100 chocolates

I suggest you move the "extra" achievements from step one to the last step or make a note they are not "required" for the Noble gardener chain.

Sunday's Finest (http://www.wowwiki.com/Sunday's_Finest) not required
Dressed for the Occasion (http://www.wowwiki.com/Dressed_for_the_Occasion) not required


These two give an extra achievement for a title of Noble which I agree should be listed in the guide. But with the limited time and the low %chance to find the shirt, pants and dress ... Let people complete the main series then go back and work on the add ons. I say this because I have opened over 300 eggs and found the shirt and the pants but no dress. I bought the dress to complete the rest of the series but still missing the title because I have bad luck getting the dress from an egg, buying does not count.


Also, why not have people work the brightly colored egg shell pieces while hunting eggs? You are already picking up 100+ eggs so easy quest to complete :)

Not only that, but you have the daily asking you to turn in 20 eggshells. I've got the "Noble Gardener" achievement on four toons but only two of them found dress and both pieces of the tux. Those two will NOT be doing that daily. The other two will only do it until they find the final items they're missing and then they will stop also.

Paid my kids $10 an hour (they drove a hard bargain) to sit behind a tree and click eggs as they appeared Sunday afternoon (I found a spot that could reach 3 spawn points without moving). Gave them a goal -- 315 pieces of chocolate or 115 pieces of chocolate and spring bunny, flowers, and robes. Told them the bunny was worth 100, flowers, and robes were worth 50 each. My daughter had 98 extra pieces of chocolate on one of my toons before the bunny dropped (already had robes and flowers). That one still doesn't have the white shirt.

[antacus]

Now that is classic, pay the kids :)

I still have not found the dress from an egg and must be up to about 400 eggs opened thus far. I have every achievement except for the one with the dress, starting to wonder if I'll get that one in time :(
