2000 argent dawn rep, repeatable.

Kommentar von 261829

How can one get this quest? After completing Fiona's caravan available quests, Lord Raymond George still does NOT give any quests.

Kommentar von thunderzebra

While farming rep, make sure to pick this quest up again after you turn it in. You must have the quest to loot the book.

Kommentar von titan4

In case you don't realize the name Galford at first like I did, it is Archivist before last boss in Living side of Strat. Book is lying on table behind him.

Kommentar von jidders

No need to reset the instance.

Kommentar von 718641

Here is what I did. I grabbed the quest, then flew to Plaguewood Tower. If you don't have the Flight Path make sure you grab it! I then entered Stratholme.

I cleared the monsters etc. to Balnazzar. Opposite Balnazzar was Instructor Galford. I killed him and took the book from him, which was behind the table.

I exited the instance, then went to Plaguewood Tower. DO NOT RESET THE INSTANCE! I caught a wind rider to Light's Hope Chapel and handed the quest in, getting 2000 Argent Dawn rep.

I grabbed the quest again and did the same as before. Because I didn't reset the instance, there were no mobs to kill; making a clear path for me to follow. The book is still obtainable.

To get revered to exalted you will need to do this quest 11 times. :)

EDIT: After getting exalted; doing the quest 11 times took me about 3-4 hours. Also, I did this as a level 80 ret pally. Doing it 70+ would be advised.

Kommentar von 719287

I have done the first three Goldbraids quests but after the turn in of "Greasing the Wheel", Fiona will not talk to me. Can anyone tell me why? She is standing at the bridge with the caravan next to her.

Kommentar von 128655

If you are a Death Knight, you can do this quest in less than four minutes once you have cleared the way once. When you have picked up the Annals of the Silver Hand use Death Gate and teleport to Ebon Hold. From there fly to Lord Raymond George with your flying mount.

Kommentar von 761921

Annals of the Silver Hand will find on the table next to the boss "Instructor Galford" Crusader Square area inside Stratholme

Kommentar von Meudhros

7 minutes 30 seconds round trip after trash is cleared. Revered to exalted in about an hour and a half.

Kommentar von MiQueL

One trip took me 5min 45sec with 310% mount and ghost wolf(talent) so took far below one hour.. Got 10% guild perk..

Kommentar von mekikya

It does give 2k rep per...also bring some swiftness potions to get to the annal faster...its a long walk over and over otherwise

or a chant boots minor speed, for a cheap way to boost your run speed

another thing worth noting if you are in a guild with a tabard to go back to the main city, set your hearth to light hope's chapel if you have quite a bit of rep to go, it took me at minimium 7.5 minutes(no interuptions like eye of naxx or respawns) to get the full circle, with no swiftness potions or run speed inscrease but 310% riding (no guild mount boost)...so if you are doing more then 3 turns it might be worth it to set your hearth

dont forget your scrolls of recall scribes, get your 20 minute hearths too

just somethings I thought of while finishing my rep...

Kommentar von 358364

if your a death knight u can hearth right above lights hope.. every 1 minute.. OH YEAH! No RUNBACK!

edit : took me 30 minutes with Death Gate, 310 Mount, unholy presence, and rocket boots!

Kommentar von 772140

As a human at revered with the racial passive Diplomacy, each turn-in earns you 2300 reputation.

Kommentar von Dahork

Map to the book for those who isnt too well known in here : http://www.wowhead.com/maps?data=2017:273749

Also making your HS to Light's Hope Chapel will save you some time atleast if your guild got Hastige Ruhe

Kommentar von 601044

To add to Malgeras's post:

To get the repeatable Argent Dawn quests:
To be able to do the quests Entartung des Knochens and Annalen der Silbernen Hand you must first complete the following quests that are initiated by Fiona who is standing at the bridge that connects the Eastern Plaguelands and Western Plaguelands.

Tarenar Sunstrike -> What I Do Best -> A Gift For Fiona
Gidwin Goldbraids -> Just Encased -> Greasing the Wheel

Once these two chains are completed, you can do Onward, to Light's Hope Chapel which will take you to 'Crown Guard Tower'. Once there you must complete Traveling Companions (he's at the top of the tower) and then complete his quest (Rough Roads) before being able to continue on to the next tower via the quest The Trek Continues. Once there, you can pick up the quest Boys Will Be Boys from Fiona. Go to 'Light's Hope Chapel' and complete the following quest line:

A Boyhood Dream -> Argent Call: The Trial of the Crypt

After completing the latter of these two quests, you will be set to revered (+0 reputation if you're already over 0/21000 revered) and Lord Raymond George will appear at the back of the chapel and will provide you with the two repeatable quests that give 2,000 Argent Dawn reputation per hand-in.

Best Grinding Method:
I have just got to exalted on my protection paladin and found something interesting (I was level 85 and used a flying mount to get around):

When doing both quests it took me just over 12 minutes to do, starting from standing in front of Lord Raymond George (the quest giver) and ending in front of him. However, if I only did Entartung des Knochens, it took me around 5 minutes 30 seconds to complete meaning it's actually quicker to spam Rattlegore kills than to try doing both.

The best way to complete Entartung des Knochens is once you've got to Scholomance, jump down from the 'bridge' and stay as close to the wall as you can (there's a little ledge in the pit below which you'll land on and it will greatly reduce the chance of pulling anything). Then run up the steps and over to the room with whelplings in; once in this room, jump down the hole on your left and then run over and kill Rattlegore. After that there's only really one way back to the entrance. It shaves off about 30 seconds or so taking this route to Rattlegore.

Kommentar von plantemarc

Repeatable 2200 Argent dawn reputation ^_^

Kommentar von MotherMonster

I used a little under 4 minutes from start to finish as a death knight.

I used Death Gate, so I just had to fly a short distance from Ebon Hold to Light's Hope Chapel.
And with a 310% mount..

POOF!

Kommentar von gtadem

Doing all of the core quests in EPL will eventually get you to a quest called Journey's End. Accepting it gives you an item called Gidwin's Hearthstone. If you never turn in this quest, you never lose the item. If you use the item, abandon the quest and re-accept it. After all, once you're to that point, all of Fiona's caravan (including Gidwin) can be found at Light's Hope Chapel, which is where Gidwin's Hearthstone teleports you. And this item has no cooldown as it wasn't intended to be reusable. Though it should be mentioned that Blizzard has patched the game a few times since this trick has been published.

For a char that has never visited EPL since the shattering, this might seem like a lot of legwork. If you're a DK, then it's probably not worth the effort. Otherwise, this makes for a very nice teleport to northern Eastern Kingdoms. Which is especially nice for Alliance since, unlike Horde, they do not have capital cities in northern EK. Perfect for trips to Zul'Aman and whatever else you might need up there.

Kommentar von luxbot

I didn't find the exact answer I was looking for so here's how you get the rep:

1. Pick up this quest in LHC.

2. Go to Strat (scarlet side, not back entrance).

3. Clear through to the Instructor, room before Balnazzar. Get the book on the table.

4. Go back to LHC. Do not reset the instance.

5. Pick up the quest again and go get the book. You do not have to clear anymore. Quest item will be available.

6. Repeat until exalted.

Kommentar von Chaosrock

I found this out with only 2 turn-ins left, you don't need to reset Stratholm each run. The book remains there. Just turn it in, pick up the quest again, and run straight to the book. As a DK I just port to Acherus each time so that's helpful. Otherwise utilize the flight points along the towers for the fastest method of travel.

Kommentar von mrcrash

1 more tip if ur Hs in on CD then you can simply take off your gear and use unstuck feature. This will kill you and you will end up on graveyard - enter instance=ur alive and saved 2 min trip ^^

Kommentar von pinktiger

if u are a death knight don't waste your time to run all the way out of the instance and to the quest giver, just use your death gate.. "ebon hold" is just next to "light's hope chapel" where the quest giver is :)

Kommentar von wolpido

As low level, go queue to this instance and when its over, tele out of instance, complete quest (assuming ur next to the quest giver), tele in and ran to end take the book, tele out, turn in, tele in, get book <- repeat that.

NOTE: You must stay in the dungeon group and there must be at least one guy with you in the group to be able to do this

Kommentar von BrowonGorefiend

Theres a lot of disjointed information here, so I'm going to do my best to consolidate every good idea I've read here.

Assuming you're 85 and the trash is negligible, you're going to be aiming for time. Heres the quickest way I've found.

1. You're only running Scholomance/Rattlegore. As another poster stated. Round trip is ~5 mins. Doing both Strath and Scholo is ~12.

2. Theres a lot of "do not reset the instance" posts here but they don't refer to what they are talking about. That's for Stratholme runs only. Rattlegore will still be dead if you don't reset the instance.

3. Hearth.

4. As a ritual to get into, reset the instances at Lord Raymond George. You don't need to do this, but its a good habit to get into.

Manage your hearth time. Its 15 mins CD if you guild has the achievement so take a flight path if you need to burn time.

Kommentar von aluttmann88

As a level 85 Human Paladin in a level 25 guild, I am currently netting 2400 rep/turn in.

Kommentar von 860195

I ground this up to exalted this evening "Argent Dawn" doing just the 1 repeatable for the book. As stated above by Greenwithnv you can run in run up to the room and then run out and hand it in if the quest was picked up before hand. Now it was 5 am and I started Thinking sometimes this happens and sometimes its good and sometimes its bad. Now i was thinking in theory. I repeat IN THEORY i am lvl 85 so i didn't try this and have no low lvls to try it with but thought it would post to ask. If you and a friend at lvl to do Stratholme and have done the pre quests to do the repeatable. Can you que for the instance right next to the quest giver "stay and wait for it to pop" run up to run the book grab it then teleport out and hand it in. Teleport back in grab it again rinse and repeat 10 times quick and damn you will be Exalted in about 10 hand ins with guild perks its 2200 rep. If that does not work because of people not wanting to wait you could just find 5 people i mean it was 5 am and there was at lest 3 people i ran across doing quests in EPL. Like I said this is just a THEORY i am probably thinking to much but i was wondering. The only contradicting thing i could think of was that all the people in the party would have to leave the instance and come back in for the book to respawn but if every 1 knows what you are doing i think it would be fare compromise.

Kommentar von Deviruchi13

As a Death Knight I did it this way:

1) I took the quest from the NPC
2) Got the book in Stratholme
3) Casted death gate
4) Completed the quest
5) Repeat 1, 2, 3 and 4 till exalted ^^

Kommentar von 598173

thought this was a daily at first, but you can do it as many times as you want in a day

Kommentar von anjan

Help! Lord Raymond George has appeared, I can talk to him but he doesn't offer the quests.

Kommentar von 393550

If you are like me, and decided halfway through the chain to unlock this quest that you might as well go for the Voller Wagen while you are here, then you can use the last part of the quest chain to speed this grind up. The last quest, Ende der Reise gives you Gidwins Ruhestein and then the quest giver and caravan are all waiting at Light's Hope Chapel.

So long story short:
1: run strath, grab Annalen der Silbernen Hand
2: use the hearthstone to turn in Annalen der Silbernen Hand
3: Pick upAnnalen der Silbernen Hand
4: abandon the Ende der Reise and then pick it back up to get a new hearthstone
5: repeat
...tada...everyone is now a shaman

Kommentar von 618266

On my Warrior (310% flight), I was able to do 3min 50sec round-trips when my Hearthstone was up and 5min 15sec trips when it was on CD. Revered to Exalted in well under an hour.

Obviously your first clear is going to take a bit longer since you have to kill mobs. You do not need to reset the instance. Kill Balnazzar on your first run and it's smooth sailing after that.

With Hearthstone available:
- Accept quest(easy to forget!), fly to Strat, run through instance, loot book, hearth. Easy peasy.

When Hearthstone is on CD:
-Accept quest, fly to Strat, run through instance, loot book, remove all gear (set up a gear-set/macro to make it one click), click the red "Help Request" button on the game menu, select character stuck , click "Teleport to Graveyard," then release spirit and run into the instance (GY is very close to the entrance), run back out, fly back to LHC.

Enjoy!

Kommentar von 911646

One important part of doing this is that you do NOT need to reset the instance. While you won't see the quest indicator without a reset instance, the book will still be there and be lootable on your next runs in.

Kommentar von izzlash

A round trip whitout clearing the instance takes about 7mins with 310% flying and no additional speed buffs.

Here's what i recommend:
Set hs at Light's hope chapel with hasty hearth you will be able to hs every two to three times.
Never reset the instance.

Kommentar von Sinja89

HIGHLY STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF NOT RESTARTING THE INSTANCE!

As a DK this is an amazingly easy rep grind. (especially if you are lvl 85 with a 310% mount + On a Pale Horse talent and in Unholy Presence and in a guild with the 10% rep bonus)

1. Pick up quest and head to the Main Entrance to Strat
2. Clear trash and pick the book up from the table
3. Use Death Gate to return to Ebon Hold and fly down to Light's Hope
4. Turn in quest (don't forget to pick up the quest again)
5. Repeat until Exalted

* Be mindful too that if you take your time, you may run into the occasional re-spawn *

Kommentar von james44776

If you are planning on doing the 11 or so turn-ins all in one go, make sure you always accept the quest again after handing it in. Flying all the way there and running to the room, just to see that the book isn't sparkling isn't the most pleasant experience (even though it doesn't take that long).

Kommentar von kropla

Doing this quest as a shaman is also a piece of cake - get a book/favourite TV series/whatever, Ausgebrannte Glyphe and it should take you like 2 min of waiting for 7.5 min Astral Recall cooldown at each run:)

Kommentar von Juranda

It says 1,000 rep, but I received 2,200 I am guessing it is guild bonus related. Get your guild to level 25 and rep faster!

Annalen der Silbernen Hand

It took me 5 minutes and 46 seconds.

I was a hunter with Durchbrechen der Schallgrenze.

I had already cleared Stratholme, which means that I just ran to the book without fighting whatsoever.

I did not use a hearth stone to get the Light's Hope Chapel. I flew there from Stratholme.

Started stopwatch from when I accepted quest, to when I turned it in.

I used (30% speed boost).

Entartung des Knochens

It took me 5 minutes and 15 seconds.

I was a hunter with Durchbrechen der Schallgrenze.

I started Scholomance with all mobs present.

Started stopwatch from when I accepted quest, to when I turned it in.

I did not use .

I used the following strategy for Entartung des Knochens

The best way to complete Aberrations of Bone is once you've got to Scholomance, jump down from the 'bridge' and stay as close to the wall as you can (there's a little ledge in the pit below which you'll land on and it will greatly reduce the chance of pulling anything). Then run up the steps and over to the room with whelplings in; once in this room, jump down the hole on your left and then run over and kill Rattlegore. After that there's only really one way back to the entrance. It shaves off about 30 seconds or so taking this route to Rattlegore.

Kommentar von 975365

nerf the rat cage...

Kommentar von 988234

Without resetting the instance, the only respawn I ran into were the rats that spawn in the gates between King's Square and Market Row. It seemed to happen every other time I ran through.

I didn't kill them all and they decided to chase me and pull some of the mobs I had skipped killing. No problem at 85, but wasn't expecting to see the rats leading an undead army.

Kommentar von 810213

I took everyones advice and did this quest a few times in order to get exalted.

I timed the time it took once I entered Stratholme(cleared) to get the book and get back to the questgiver while using Aspect of the Cheetah and a 280% flying mount. It took exactly 4 1/2 minutes (not including the flight back but that was only a 50 seconds)

Doing the Aberrations of the Bone took me almost 6 minutes since I needed to clear and a couple times I even forgot to reset. Rattlegore is the 3rd boss so you need to fight through and now with Pandaria you cant jump over the bridge you just have to run the normal way through.

So in the end for me, Annals of the Silverhand was the much smarter choice since you can leave the dungeon cleared and not need to reset and its a much straighter flight between Strath and Lights Hope.

I was gettting 2200 rep with the guild perk. I didnt try the Character Stuck option to get out of Strath but it sounds like a good idea.

Kommentar von Berronaxwins

Hehe.. gotta love doing this as a dk. Just loot the book then use death gate. Also if you spec death's advance and stay in unholy presence you can use it to avoid the rat cage closing on you.

Kommentar von bjornfeuer

as of 5.4.8 you still don't need to restart the instance to keep doing this.

Kommentar von rezzax

I'm doing this right now. 1 run from Light's Hope Chapel to get book and then back to deliver took me 5 mins. 2:41 mins from entering the instance to obtain the book.

NOTE: Put Light's Hope Chapel to your home so you can use Heartstone to get out faster.

Druid using Dash,Stampeding Roar and Displacer Beast.

2200 rep each turn-in. As many have said above, you do not need to reset the instance for the book to respawn.

Kommentar von Drunkion

Make sure if, like me you repeatedly do this quest to farm rep for Argent Dawn, that you make a conscious effort to remember to re-accept the quest after turning it in. I was in such a rush to get back and forth between Light's Hope and Strat that a couple of times I would get all the way into the dungeon and have a Homer Simpson moment... D'oh (forehead slap).

Also, every second run if doing them repeatedly, expect the first gate to shut down on you and deal with the swarm or rats. This happens even if you do not reset the instance. Just a soft/short respawn time. They are a pain. You can't tab target them and they will not set off a hunter explosive trap. Just back yourself into a corner and multi-shot them. They don't hurt, just annoying.

Kommentar von Cailech

As of 6.0, you still don't have to reset the instance to get the book.

Kommentar von leighloo

I'm not if anyone else had this issue, but when I was planning to farm rep I couldn't figure out why everyone was saying not to reset instance. My thought was that it will reset by itself by the time you can do the quest again. oh wait.... this isn't a DAILY quest.... a-ha! just repeat over and over. also you don't have to kill bosses to open doors or anything - just go straight towards the crimson thrown and your minimap will show you the rest.

Kommentar von Waterfuzz

Don't bother with his dungeon quests if you simply want the Loremaster achievement, there are plenty of quests in this area.

Kommentar von Adelline

I didn't start playing until Wrath, so I never did Strath when it was current, and wasn't familiar with the terms 'living side' and 'dead side'.
This quest takes place in the section now known as 'Main Gate'. It's the entrance marked 'Stratholme' on the map.

Kommentar von swedengamer

As of patch 7.1.5, I did the two quests this guy, Lord Raymond George, offers as a level 45 Blood Elf Mage. I was thinking they rewarded xp, and I wanted to all quests in the zone. They did not. They are repeatable though, and my guess is that this is used to get the argent dawn reputation up to exalted, a faction that was
heavily used in vanilla.

My two cents for those of you wondering if these rewards any kind of experience. They do not.

Kommentar von Hamburgla

As of 7.3.5 you do not have to reset the instance in order to pick up the book, nor do you have to kill Balnaazzar either. So win-win in my book I'd say!

I would wager this bypasses the 10 dungeon an hour rule, since you're not killing the dungeon boss.

Kommentar von decker12

This is a goofy repeatable quest and in the latest 2018 patches it rewards only Argent Dawn reputation. Back in Vanilla, before TBC, Argent Dawn rep grinding was a pretty difficult conquest that rewarded you with a few excellent purple trinkets that were fantastic for those Vanilla raids.

Now in 2018, there's not much of a need to grind Argent Dawn rep here other than having it, so getting and repeating this quest isn't necessary because it doesn't reward any EXP. It's fine if you are going for the tabard/rep achievements, because you'll see this tome before the Strat boss every time, but otherwise there's little reward to keep picking it up and completing it.

Kommentar von totalnooblet

Another thing I'd add is just make a premade group and immediately leave for a tp out, if you're feeling extra lazy it streamlines the going out process.

Kommentar von Veverka

Hello there fellow reputation grinders!

As for patch 10.1. you can still obtain 2000 rep per Quest completion BUT with Welcome to Sanctuary event (from 15/6 @10:00am to 11/7 @11:59pm) you can get 50% more with every single completion!

So! 3000 rep per Quest completion AND if you are Human like me (I mean ingame) you will get additional 200 rep as well for total 3200 rep in one single completion!

Happy Grinding!
