There are quests related to this event, the ones where you get the free tickets

Commentaire de Endan

Once i had taken the Q from orgrimmar and then i got to mulgore to see what DF is. I got 5 tickets and i dont remember how, and later on i discarded them.

Now i cant see any quests to take only to deliver.

One guildmate told me to go to orgrimmar to retake the Q but i didn't find it. anyone has any idea?

Why Darkmoon Faire... is Bad

Commentaire de legaly

Hey, anyone know if you can raise your rep with Darkmoon Faire with new quests coming up in 4.3? I mean, raise your reputation, when you can only gain reputation just from darkmoon decks.

Commentaire de sacreddevil

Official post about the DMF tickets obtained: (Of course they won't mentioned the extra 5 in the first day.)
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3657441916?page=25#485

To win the Darkmoon Prize Tickest:

5 tickets fromLa foire de Sombrelune.(Old char who had done the old version quest before cannot recieved again.)
35 tickets from Mini games daily (1x5x8days) ※ DMF starts at 0:00AM and daily resets at 3:00AM, so it can be completed twice in the first day.
8 tickets from 2 Primary professions (4x2)
12 tickets from 4 Secondary professions.(3x4)
10 from

Tickets rewards from the quest：70 (75 in first week for new char.)

There are other way to get more tickets.

You can loot those artifacts below from BG, dungeons and raids while Guide pratique de Sombrelune is in you inventory. They are tradeable and can only complete once per week ( I guess ).

5 tickets rewards - Bannière des trépassés, Insigne capturé, Journal d’aventurier défunt from enemy corpses in BG.

10 tickets rewards - Cristal imprégné, Oeuf monstrueux, Grimoire mystérieux, Arme ornée, Runes de devin. The four before are from dungeons bosses and the last one is from raid bosses.

15 tickets rewards - Un traité sur la stratégie Can only loot from 85 heroic dungeons.

Max amount tickets rewards from artifacts per week：15+50+15=80

There are some reference to farm the artifacts in classic low level dungeons.

Commentaire de raistlyn

Oh Darkmoon Faire, how I love thee..

Your stalls are like voids of the Abyss,

Your carnies take my sense of smell away,

Your vendors sell me phat lewtz for me to resell on the AH,

And your Seer is married to Hogger..

So, can I haz your tabard nao?

Love,

Darkraistlyn

P.S. I blew up one of your sheep with the Steam Tonk Controller, you might want to clean that up.

Commentaire de Jollygood

My dear, sweet, adorable cash machine, Lhara will no longer be selling BC and LK herbs. So, no more Auction House fun for my alts. She will, however, be selling lots of companion pets and so on with your tickets. The Darkmoon cub is To Squee.

None of the item turn-ins will exist anymore. So, no more collecting furry paws and copper modulators. However, the quests for your professions are pretty darned sweet. You can go up 5 levels in your profession with the quests.

I love what they did with it, overall. It looks like a major effort on their part and a great way to level alts so they don't get killed running to neutral auction houses.

Beware, though, if you are doing alternate gameplay and are trying to level a pacifist character. I manged to get a kill on a mechanical and need to go back and figure out what it was.

Disney Land in WoW Version!

Commentaire de SillyBilly2

Does anyone know if you can still only go once a month (over the weekend), or if it is open all of the time?

Commentaire de Vindictae

In case anyone is looking for how to get there, the Darkmoon Faire Mystic Mage in Orgrimmar is just past the flight master up the top.
The fare is 30s.

Commentaire de Crystarion

Anyone else having trouble getting the game vendors to take the tokens in order to play thier games?

Commentaire de 178702

You have to dismount before you can play the games. If you are mounted, the carnies won't take your tokens and you can't play.

Commentaire de Arfan

In case any Alliance is looking for the entrance - today I took a portal from Elwynn Forest, where the old faire used to be.

Commentaire de cassafrass

The Darkmoon Faire reminds me of "We're Back: A Dinosaur's Story".

Commentaire de Stevies1474

I must say this is a wonderful improvement over the old Darkmoon Faire. Had a lot of fun doing the quests there today and will be doing them again tomorrow. Thank you Blizz for fun new dailies and quests.

Commentaire de 685273

There are Teleporters in each of the caps to help you get to the portal that will get you to the Faire's new island. The tele fee varies depending on the level of the chara. Teleporter will have a quest for you only if you haven't done the intro quest previously, which can make it hard to track.

Various dailies to earn Prize Tokens, which you can use to buy just about anything. If you have a proff over 75/80 level, you can do the proff quests for those to get some free proff levels (+5), prize tokens (+3), game tokens (+1), exp, money, Achievement credit and rep. BoAs (same as jp), mounts (2), pets (6), vanity items (offhands, cloaks, summonables), and even bags can be purchased with Prize Tokens.

Game Tokens are used to play the various games, which get you money, rep, exp, Achievement credit and Prize Tokens. The games in question vary, but are relatively simple if you ask the NPC hosting them to explain.

You can still turn in your decks, as well as purchase statless teir revivals (0-5), get your fotune told, listen to the band, and even PvP Deathmatch other players. Unlike before, you will find your Prize Tokens in the currency tab, to reassure you that they're staying for good. Most things for purchase that are white vanity items are cheap (1-10 PT), but things like pets are 90, mounts are 180, and so forth.

Don't forget to look around on the island, there is lots to do, and some of it's more out of the way than others. Example? Sea Pony pet, fishable, and adorable. Or Ms. Greenteeth, a rather morbid Forsaken (N) more than happy to sell you some rather disturbing food or offhand items.

Keep a look out for the one week a month you've got access to this lovely place and enjoy!

Commentaire de dslg604t

There's a series of arrows pointing towards the Faire. In order they are:

"Ahead of You, Down the Path"
"A Majestic, Magical Faire!"
"Ignore the Darkened, Eerie Woods"
"Ignore the Eyes That Blink and Stare"
"Fun & Games & Wondrous Sights!"
"Music & Fireworks to Light Up the Night!"
"Do Not Stop! You're Nearly There!"
"Behold, My Friend: THE DARKMOON FAIRE!"

In case you guys don't realise, it's a poem.

Commentaire de andrtan

When i first arrived at the darkmoon fairy island i was intrigued by the messages the red arrow signs had on them, desperately trying to keep you on the road and out of the wood, so i did some exploring and this is what i found:
1)There is a tree with several cages and skeletons located on the most north part of the green area on the map before it rises and becomes the dark forest again
2)A cave underwater on the small island on the map directly to the right of the portal to the darkmoon island
3)A glittering strange green smoke very close to the ruins of a small house, located on the very south part of the dark wood
4)There is a lone undead next to a wagon, her name is

Weird lights, a witch and some dead bodies in cages .... nothing dangerous yet, but i will keep looking.

note: I will add exact map location as soon as the map appears in wowhead mapping tool

Commentaire de 919773

When the cannon shoots you i can not find a key to come down--i try the #1 key, the F1 key, F4 key, #4 key , the l key and nothing works --any suggestions ?

Commentaire de Nelora

One does not simply walk into the Darkmoon Faire.

Commentaire de 627828

The two tents that are 'Under Construction' please let those be dungeon instances. Carnival themed dungeons would be epic. Especially if they did it in the theme of Darkmoon/Kara.. meant to be fun.

Be a good chance to drop some more transmog gear, new heirlooms (those rings we were promised would be in Darkmoon?) and maybe some of the pets/mounts? If nothing else more rep/tickets..

Commentaire de 826859

I wandered around for a bit and couldn't find the portals to get home. In case you can't find them they are in a tent in the middle of the pier just past the stage where Level90ETC plays. In hindsight, it's pretty obvious.

Commentaire de dutchrend1

The Lumière d’Élune DOES NOT work for looting the chest in the Darkmoon Faire's arena. You CAN NOT loot the chest while under the effects, and you get a similar message to "You cannot loot that right now". It was worth a shot though. I sacrificed mine so that you could keep yours for whatever epic moment it aids you. ;) Confirmed as of 12/10/2011.

Commentaire de Hean

So apparently, once the Darkmoon Faire is over you can still stay on the island until:
1) You log out. The second you log back in, it'll try to load the island, but then send you back to the usual portal entrance point.
2) You die in the arena or on the island. This will basically trap you in a "released spirit" state and you cannot go back on the island and even if someone tries to resurrect you, the second you're resurrected, you'll be ported out of the island.
3) The chest in the arena no longer spawns.
~~4) You can do the daily quests once they reset even when the event is no longer going.~~ - Have been fixed so quests no longer show up.

^I checked out all of these things last night and I really wanted to point no. 3 out so people won't be disappointed after waiting for +3 hours or so and then see nothing.

Commentaire de Pathervader

So does anyone know for certain if you can do the quests from items like the ornate weapon more than once. When I click on them it says I have already completed the quest. So was wondering if it resets every month or not.

Commentaire de Jollygood

FYI - The dailies do not appear to give experience. It looks like the profession based quests that reset each faire do give experience. The games like Whack a Gnoll and so on do not. If it gives your 85 some gold, odds are that it'd give your lower levels some exp.

All of the quests give reputation with DMF and one's guild.

Like the Argent Tournament, you can use the currency generated in order to buy heirlooms. This is massively great for lower level casual players, who can get blue-quality stuff and not have to worry about loot tables and so on until level 80.

Commentaire de Murhtag

Earning gold has never been easier: Enter Darkmoon Faire Fishing.
With fishing from level one you can roam the shores and islands of the DMFaire fishing the Shipwreck floating debris. Don't open the crates while fishing so you can carry as many as possible. The drops are all Cata: Flasks, Elixirs, Ore , Potions Heavy Savage Leather, Ember Silk Cloth and Darkmoon Firewater along with foods and drinks of the Darkmoon flavor will be found in each crate. Along with, from what I have found on every toon I go there with, the sea creature pet that hovers in a floating round ball is a very common drop as well.
These Crates you fish up will earn you Tons of gold, it is bar none, in my opinion, the easiest way to earn gold for any level toon. For PvP servers you are safe in the faire grounds, stray about 20yards or so away and you are marked for battle making it a killing zone and some fun world PvP.
You can fish the shores and small islands around the entire main Island but the shoreline for riding does not continue all the way. This is where DK's and Shammies shine or having Elixir of Water walking is essential.
There was a wonderful glitch where you could be mounted and while traveling jump land jump land repeat. While in the air you travel at 100% ground speed making traveling thru water while mounted very quick and it worked anywhere in WoWville, Blizzy "fixed" that and it no longer works.
There is a fishing trainer and complementing vendor on the docks at the DMF so no need to make a special stop to get the Fishing Profession or Pole.
On a level 6 warrior I made 1k gold my first trip out there. This is on a Low pop PvP server where many things are higher priced, your mileage may vary. You can imagine the increased amount if you are mounted. The floating debris respawns quickly, you won't be disappointed.

Commentaire de Askania

Just letting everyone know as wowhead doesn't show it, but there is a quest in stormwind which you help a little girl find her balloons and she gives you a pet as a reward. She is in the chappel area in the middle of stormwind.

Commentaire de BrianneR

Okay, so I've been going to Mulgore for the last three days to get to the faire, but I go there tonight and it's all gone. What happened? Did it move?

Commentaire de 456510

FREE ARTIFACTS

Today i've learned something. If you have the quest; Test your strenght on you (Grizzly trophy's) and the darkmoon fair is gone, you can still loot all artifacts in dungeons. Since im the only one with the quest i always win the artifacts. Got 5 of them already after the event ended, while leveling my shaman.

I don't know if this should be submitted as a bug, but enjoy the information and use it wisely.

Yours Stylezz

Commentaire de 182253

I haven't seen any posts about this yet, so for those of you trying to maximize your tickets per week, you can (sometimes) technically get in 8 days worth of dailies in the week the faire is around.

The fair starts at 12:01 AM on Sunday morning, and some servers don't reset for another few hours (mine resets at 3). This means you have 3 (or however many on your own server) hours in which you can still complete "Saturday's" dailies at the faire. When your server resets your dailies, you can go back and do them again.

Commentaire de Peppermynt

I've just gotta say, I love the new rennovation of the darkmoon fair, it's so much more exciting...
but i must say it reminds me of the Demon Parade carnival scene from the old movie of my childhood 'We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story' LOL
I don't know if anyone here has ever seen that or remembers? hahahaha

Extra Buffs from the Darkmoon Faire

A little known fact about the Tauren Chieftains concert that performs every hour at the Darkmoon Faire is that if you emote a cheer to any of the band members (/cheer), your character will do a wavy cheer AND you also get a +10 all stats buff.

Talk to the Fortune Teller near the zoo area and depending on what combination of answers you choose, you get a special buff.

Commentaire de Tsukiryu

Seems to me your professions must be 100+ in order to do the Profession quests in Darkmoon Faire.

My JCing is 60, no quest and my BSing is 102 and was able to do it.

Commentaire de LorB

So, now the mage charges to take you to the staging area (I don't think she did before)... I thought the price was interesting. :D
Certainly adds to the 'evil' feel the faire has (along with the caged skeletons in the woods...)

Commentaire de 9dad

I tried the enchanting quest and found that the weapons I collected could not be disenchanted; therefore I could not complete the quest to get +5 Enchanting. My enchanting is now at 520. The jewelcrafting quest worked sust fine to top off my jewelcrafting at 525.

Commentaire de 873189

As a fun fact- during the Tauren and the Chieftains concert- cheer at their lead singer! It gives you the buff "Pumped Up!" which grants 10%+ to all stats for 5 minutes. It's not much, but hey, it might helping battle the Alliance (or Horde) while you're farming for the Sea Pony/Sea Turtle mount.

Commentaire de slinx007

If you are not level 85, and plan on doing this event often, I would advise you load up on the Darkmoon Game Tokens. This is because the higher level you are, the more expensive they are. So you can save a few gold if you buy them at a lower level.

Commentaire de 977993

While not nearly as lucrative some of the fishing advice posted here, if you are starting a new toon when the Darkmoon Faire is in town, it can serve as a very quick and easy way to earn some good starting cash. Gelvas Crasseporte sells Boîte de rangement de Sombrelune for 1 Darkmoon Prize Ticket. This is a great starting bag, but it can also be sold back to Gelvas immediately for 2 gold 50 silver. Using the five free Darkmoon Prize Tickets you get from the breadcrumb quest La foire de Sombrelune or La foire de Sombrelune, you can outfit your new toon with a 16-slot bag and 10 gold right off the bat. (Which, from experience, can come in handy when you are on a new server with no high-level characters to provide you with good starting equipment.)

Commentaire de 911677

If you want to get tickets on an alt really fast, you can abuse the professions a little bit. Train 2 professions, boost them to 75 quickly, then abandon them and pick up 2 other ones. Repeat till you run out of professions for the month.

Got me pets on alts nice and quick that way so that when Mists of Pandaria combines pets on all characters I will be done with DMF ones.

Commentaire de 969235

Ok wow sherpas and gurus-riddle me this:I have three times now(w/different characters on different servers (each having diff. class/race/prof/lvl) found a lone vendor at the wharf end of the fair adjacent to the stage who sells only (neck) pendants,each one slightly more expensive then the last,and each with ,a slightly more suspicious sounding "effect" said to be given to the wearer. One claims to allow the wearer to effortlessly bound across sizeable gaps, another claiming to make unusually rare items appear in rather mundane areas.the first necklace is 10 gold i believe and i think the last two are 100 gold.I cannot find reference to him in any literature or on any site,but I have repeatedly come across his wares in auctions so I am not the only one high enough to see him.Any info on him or,more pertinently, if his wares actually live up to the hype?-

-LuKeSuXx
I will attempt to hunt him down and get his name/full stats on his items/etc b4 the fair closes but i am doubtfull.

Commentaire de 1005908

I have collected a Banks worth of Darkmoon Quest items from Dungeons and Battlegrounds, are the quests for those items spammable (unlikely) or are they daily? Or are they only once per darkmoon, where if they are, then what a waste of space for items, but not for my wallet.

Commentaire de Buckmoney

Came in with 83 Tickets.
Turned in the Grisly Trophies quest
Did the profession quests
Did the Dailies
Bought all the Artifacts that I could find (all except the Soothsayer's Runes)
Came out with 178 Tickets

Commentaire de 993554

Have reached "Exalted" with the Darkmoon Faire - does that have any significance? For instance, when one is Exalted in Org they can purchase a mount tho their toon was not created in Org, there are also special tabs etc. I've looked through the "Faire Guide" and have yet to find any indication that reaching Exalted here means anything more than I've spent a lot of time.

Anyone?

Thank you.

Commentaire de raistlyn

I decided to post this because I was tired of running across the Faire only to find I forgot my simple flour for my crunchy frogs. Here is list of what you need to bring before you ever walk into the portal, and what you will find inside.

You need to have your professions to at least 75 before the quests will appear. Thank you to Moospluaze in the comments for the reminder.

Profession quests:

Alchemy: Sylannia (Night Elf who sells drinks)
You need 5 Boisson gazeuse de la foire, sold by her, and 5 Jus de baie lunaire, sold by innkeepers and other vendors outside the Faire.

Archaeology: Professeur Thaddeus Paleo (Human in a booth next to the sandbox with children in it)
Bring 15 fossil fragments. You won't carry these in your bags, it's a type of currency from archaeology.

Blacksmithing: Yebb Becquabrach (Gnome near the zoo, next to a horse)
You don't need to leave the Faire for this one. Go find a forge, make the horseshoes out of the metal he gives you, and then go back to the horse and shoe her.

Cooking: Stamp Corne-tonnerre (Tauren food vendor, in a booth behind the tonk dailies) Putting the Crunch in the Frog
Bring 5 Farine simple, sold outside the Faire.

Enchanting: Sayge (Gnoll hidden down a walkway of torches towards the southern side of the Faire)
You don't need to leave the Faire for this one. Find the Arme abandonnée laying around, disenchant them to make Poudre de devin and hand them in.

Engineering: Rinling (Troll in the shooting booth)
You don't need to leave the Faire for this one. Repair the damaged steam tonks all over the Faire.

First Aid: Chronos (Undead hidden behind the cooking quest, surrounded by hurt carnies and benches)
Use the bandages he provides on 4 injured carnies around the Faire.

Fishing: Stamp Corne-tonnerre (Tauren food vendor, in a booth behind the tonk dailies) Spoilin' for Salty Sea Dogs
Fish up 5 Hareng de la Grande mer he requires at the waterside at the Faire.

Herbalism: Chronos (Undead hidden behind the cooking quest, surrounded by hurt carnies and benches)
Pick 6 Pétales-de-nuit from around the Faire.

Inscription: Sayge (Gnoll hidden down a walkway of torches towards the southern side of the Faire)
Bring 5 Parchemin léger, which are sold outside the Faire to make her items.

Jewelcrafting: Chronos (Undead hidden behind the cooking quest, surrounded by hurt carnies and benches) Keeping the Faire Sparkling
Pick up the bits of glass around the Faire to make 5 « Gemme » étincelante.

Leatherworking: Rinling (Troll in the shooting booth)
Bring 5 Bobine de fil grossier, 10 Verroterie rutilante, and 5 Teinture bleue from outside the Faire, to make his items.

Mining: Rinling (Troll in the shooting booth)
Bring him 6 pieces of Débris de chariotte lying around the Faire.

Skinning: Chronos (Undead hidden behind the cooking quest, surrounded by hurt carnies and benches)
Skin 4 staked skins from around the Faire and return to him.

Tailoring: Selina Dourman (Undead next to the front gate)
Bring 1 Bobine de fil grossier, 1 Teinture rouge, and 1 Teinture bleue, sold outside the Faire, to create her item.

Hope this helps! Happy Faireing!

Edit: Fixing IDs.
