Ji-Kun's eggs during the week of Noblegarden.

Noblegarden is an Easter event, taking place around the real-life holiday, based on the Western interpretation. Thus the event can occur anytime from the end of March to the end of April. Players can search for colored eggs hidden around 4 towns close to each race's starting area. Noblegarden starts on Easter Sunday, and lasts for one week.

The great feast of Noblegarden has long been celebrated by the races of the Alliance and recently adopted by those of the Horde. On this joyous day, it is customary for the nobles and lords from each race to hide coins, candy, and the occasional treasures within special eggs painted to look like wildflowers. These eggs are then scattered around the major cities for the citizenry to find. From heroes to commoners, and everyone in between - the feast of Noblegarden is meant to bring communities together to share the joy of life and friendship.

Noblegarden is a seasonal event, whose achievements contribute to its meta-achievement, Inv egg 09 [Noble Gardener], which is a part of Achievement bg masterofallbgs [What a Long, Strange Trip It's Been]. Noblegarden is unusual for a seasonal event in that its meta-achievement can be accomplished by low-level characters. It's conceivable that a level 1 character could complete all of the achievements, though some of them will be challenging for characters under level 40.

Egg Hunting[]

Gathering Brightly Colored Eggs is the central activity of Noblegarden. These eggs are hidden in and around the starting area towns, and contain Achievement noblegarden chocolate egg [Noblegarden Chocolate], with a chance of containing one of the items that the Noblegarden vendors sell. There's also a chance when collecting the egg that will give the player a buff that transforms them into a rabbit for 1 hour. Said buff silences casting, so it can be clicked off if it proves annoying.

To speed the process, turn on autoloot and the interact key (default keybind F). A useful macro to quickly gather eggs and open them on the move is:

#showtooltip Noblegarden Chocolate
/cancelaura Noblegarden Bunny
/use Eagger Basket
/use Brightly Colored Egg

Eggs are found in the following locations:

Egg-gathering is made easier with the help of the Inv misc easterbasket [Borrowed Egg Basket], which provides a speed buff wherever eggs can be found. It levels the playing field against classes with inherent unmounted speed buffs, such as druids. The basket can be acquired with the quest B [1-70] A Tisket, a Tasket, a Noblegarden Basket. The quest rewards a cosmetic Inv misc easterbasket [Egg Basket] and a toy Inv misc easterbasket [Eagger Basket] that functions the same as the quest item.

Inv misc wolffoot [Cursed Rabbit's Foot] can be acquired from the Brightly Colored Eggs, which will have the player lay a slightly larger egg but doesn't sparkle unlike the eggs that spawn with the Inv egg 09 [Noblegarden Bunny].

Quests[]

The following quests are available for Noblegarden:

  1. A [1-70] Spring Collectors or H [1-70] Spring Gatherers
  2. B [1-70 Daily] The Great Egg Hunt

Achievements[]

Noblegarden has a host of achievements required to complete its meta-achievement Inv egg 09 [Noble Gardener], itself a part of Achievement bg masterofallbgs [What a Long, Strange Trip It's Been].

Note
Note: This list is up to date as of Patch 10.1.7

Achievement strategy[]

This is a strategy specifically for the achievements listed above.

Head to your favorite city of choice. Your mission now is to collect 355 eggs. If you collect any of the following (from finding inside eggs, or borrowing a tuxedo from a friend) you can subtract the amount listed from 355. Do not purchase anything until the end, to minimize the number of eggs you gather. If you are a mage, be sure to add an additional 100 if you are interested in the Inv misc book 07 [Tome of Polymorph: Rabbit]. If you are also going for the Ability hunter pet tallstrider [Swift Springstrider] and the Inv misc herb rainpoppy [Mystical Spring Bouquet], add another 600 but again if you're lucky, you could have one drop instead while gathering for your achievements. Playing with others will allow you to share Inv pants 01 [Black Tuxedo Pants] and Inv shirt 08 [White Tuxedo Shirt], saving a few eggs.

Achievement noblegarden chocolate egg [Noblegarden Chocolate] 100 Noblegarden Chocolate Eat 100 Noblegarden Chocolates to complete Achievement noblegarden chocolate egg [Chocoholic].

There are generally two strategies for collecting eggs as fast as possible: One option is to use the macro in the Egg Hunting section, and keep its buff up as much as possible, running around picking up eggs. Some people prefer camping instead - finding a spot with a lot of spawn points to minimize movement. Since they do not stack, eggs need to be opened as they are gathered in order to avoid running out of bag space; the chocolates yielded do stack to 250. It's also easy to work on the Achievement noblegarden chocolate egg [Chocoholic] achievement by eating the first 100 chocolates. Once enough chocolate has been acquired, purchase or borrow from friends any remaining items.

Here are some tips for the remaining achievements:

Spell shadow soothingkiss [Blushing Bride]
Equip a Inv shirt 08 [White Tuxedo Shirt] and Inv pants 01 [Black Tuxedo Pants] and kiss someone wearing a Inv chest cloth 04 [Elegant Dress] (baby pink colored dress). People are commonly wearing these dresses in the event area, and in Dalaran. Both males and females can wear the clothing for it to count for the achievement (so you don't specifically need to find a female character wearing the dress, for example).
Achievement noblegarden chocolate egg [Chocoholic]
Eat 100 Noblegarden Chocolates. Do this while gathering eggs.
Spell shaman giftearthmother [Desert Rose]
Visit Badlands, Desolace, Tanaris, Thousand Needles, and Silithus. Once you land, use the Inv chest cloth 13 [Spring Robes] to plant a rose and take off again. This can be achieved using flight masters, but flying manually allows players to complete steps of Inv egg 09 [Spring Fling] and Inv egg 07 [Hard Boiled] on the way, saving time.
Inv chest cloth 04 [Dressed for the Occasion]
(This is not required for the meta achievement.) This is an RNG based achievement.
Inv egg 07 [Hard Boiled]
Group with a friend who has a Inv misc branch 01 [Blossoming Branch] with charges remaining and use a charge in the Un'goro Golakka Hot Springs subzone. Sit still to should lay an egg after a few minutes. Alternatively, have the hearth set to Dalaran, Gadgetzan or Silithus, hearthstone when you collect a rabbit buff, then run (or should I say hop) to Un'goro. You will not be able to use a taxi, but you can use the Portal from Dalaran to Caverns of Time.
Inv egg 06 [Noble Garden]
Using a purchased Inv egg 06 [Noblegarden Egg], place it on the ground in either Horde Silvermoon City or Alliance Stormwind City. Then immediately loot this egg for extra chocolate and the chance of a drop.
Inv misc flower 02 [Shake Your Bunny-Maker]
Every 5 minutes, use your Inv misc roses 01 [Spring Flowers] on a female of either faction.
  • Be sure the person is not using some kind of buff that changes appearance
  • Be sure the character is actually female (check for beards under those helmets)
  • Be sure the female does not already have the buff. Watch for a carrot icon, or the bunny ears on her head
  • Be sure she is '18 or over'!
  • See the macro below
Stormwind and Orgrimmar are generally the most populous areas to find members of your own and the opposing faction. Spring Flowers can be used while mounted, so eagle-eyed players can target hostile females from above the range of the flying patrols before swooping down to plant some ears. The 5 minute cooldown on Spring Flowers should be used to find the next female on your list, taking care to keep track of her until the cooldown expires. If you're having trouble finding a race, remember to check all areas of the city, or try other faction cities, Dalaran, or battlegrounds such as Alterac Valley. The event sites are also worth trying for less popular races. For friendly females, you can always ask in your guild or in trade chat.
Inv egg 09 [Spring Fling]
Travel to the four event sites for your faction, and walk up to someone else's pet rabbit. After a few seconds the "magical cycle of life" should take place.
Inv shirt 08 [Sunday's Finest]
(This is not required for the meta achievement.) This is an RNG based achievement.

Shake Your Bunny-Maker macro[]

Removed from game The subject of this section was removed from World of Warcraft in patch 8.1.0.

To be able to identify race and gender for shapeshifted druids, gender-ambiguous blood elves, or if you simply have poor vision, here's a macro:

/run DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage((UnitSex("target")==2 and "Male " or "Female ")..UnitLevel("target").." "..UnitRace("target").." "..(UnitBuff("target","Sprung!")=="Sprung!" and "Sprung!" or "clear"));

Target a character, and when activated the macro will print in the chat window whether it is male or female, the level, the race and if it has the Sprung buff already or is clear. From the information given you must decide yourself if you want to shake your bunny maker at it. When copy/pasting the macro text, be sure to remove a possible space before the "/run".

  • There is now an addon that makes finding the target you are looking for much easier, and it will show you the Sprung cooldown remaining if it has already been applied to the character. The addon is called "IsItFemale", and is available on curse.com.

Since patch 8.1.0, the players can be male or female to obtain the achievement but still requires them to be at least level 18 or higher.

Being helpful to others[]

To help other players get their achievements, you can do the following things:

Removed from game The subject of this section was removed from World of Warcraft in patch 8.1.0.
  • If you are a female of any race (but especially of the rare combinations, such as female tauren, troll, orc, dwarf or worgen) spend some time hanging around crowded places. For example while waiting for that random dungeon to start. This gives players a chance to use their Inv misc roses 01 [Spring Flowers] on you for Inv misc flower 02 [Shake Your Bunny-Maker]. If you do get the rabbit ears put on you, remove them again by right-clicking the buff icon. Otherwise people have to wait for the two-minute cooldown.

Notes[]

In 2009, the schedule for Noblegarden was changed since it was delayed.[1]

Re: Noblegarden Rescheduled | 2009-04-02 16:23 | Blizzard Entertainment Nethaera

Many players may have noticed that Noblegarden has been removed from the in-game calendar. While the event is not being removed from the game, it is being delayed slightly and will not occur as originally scheduled on April, 12. We will be implementing this event at a future date, however.

There have been many additions made to the event including a change to the length of which the event runs (1 week) and additional content for players to enjoy. We look forward to sharing this new experience with you.

Warcraft III[]

WC3RoC-logo This section concerns content related to Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos or its expansion The Frozen Throne.

In the official Blizzard scenario map for Warcraft III called "Funny Bunny's Easter Egg Hunt", Easter Bunnies and Evil Bunnies come out around the time of Noblegarden to find eggs. They compete with each other to find as many eggs as possible, valuing rare golden Easter eggs. They live in Easter egg houses.
