Noblegarden Holiday in WoW Classic

WoW Classic Noblegarden HolidayQuick Facts: Introduced: When: Where: What:

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.

Egg Hunt StrategyWonder how long it's been sitting there?

Under Options > System > Graphics, set the slider for Environmental Detail and Ground Clutter settings to low and zoom out. This can help you spot eggs before environmental objects like bushes or crates do.

Play around with camera angles -- this will help you click on eggs even if you can't see them straight on.

Use your mouse to swing your camera angle around so you can be looking around as you run through the zone.

Using higher-level characters is best because mobs will ignore you. Since these are in newbie areas, you don't encounter mobs above level 12-13.

Many Horde players prefer Mulgore, because the eggs stand out better against the green grass.

Many Alliance players prefer Dun Morogh because the white snow provides better contrast.

If you have alts, have each of them hunt eggs in a different zone. That way, if one zone becomes too overrun with other players, you can switch to another, less crowded zone.

Who wrote this guide? Because the eggs definitely don't respawn in 3 minutes. I was waiting for a respawn for over 10 minutes to see if this was better than constantly hunting for them and the egg hasn't respawned even after 10 minutes.

I looted about 370 eggs this morning to get all of the clothing rewards. A few more tips from my experience:

In addition to lowering ground clutter, setting texture filtering to "bilinear" can help the eggs pop out a little more on ground textures.
Gathering addons can help to track these as "treasure" nodes on your map. After a few rounds in a zone, you can start running from spawn to spawn.
Respawn time seems pretty random. I've seen some respawn moments after I loot them, and other nodes haven't respawned - even after hours.

Happy hunting!

If it wasn't for me randomly checking out the wowhead home page I would never have known this holiday was even on. There was no notification on the bnet launcher or in game -_-
So disappointing :(

"These maps are incomplete and will be updated after the first complete run of this event in 2020."

Were the maps ever updated or are they still incomplete?

Since 2021 is the first time I will be doing Noblegarden in WoW Classic, it will be interesting to see if there are any changes made, so any you WoW vets from last year's Noblegarden should keep an eye out and report here if there are any, seeing that there is no Noblegarden guide for 2021. Assuming it may be otherwise, for now.
