Icecrown Glacier - Neutral (Both) Dailies


[80] Leave Our Mark
From: Baron Sliver at The Shadow Vault
Objective: Plant 15 Ebon Blade Banners near the corpses of vrykul found within the greater Jotunheim region.
Reward: 13g 23s and 250 reputation with Knights of the Ebon Blade

Very easy quest. You are given an Ebon Blade Banner which looks more like a sword than a banner, but anyway, you need to plant this into any Vrykul corpse you find. They can be copses you have created, or those left by others. Simply target the corpse and right click the banner to place it. Easy. As the quest text states, you will find the Vrykul within the greater Jotunheim region.

Note: If you are doing this quest for the first time, combine it with, Crush Dem Vrykuls!, Ebon Blade Prisoners, Vandalizing Jotunheim, and hand in The Bone Witch.

[80] Shoot 'Em Up
From: The Leaper at The Shadow Vault
Objective: Use a Jotunheim Rapid-Fire Harpoon to shoot down 20 Jotunheim Proto-Drakes and their riders.
Reward: 13g 23s and 250 reputation with Knights of the Ebon Blade

For this you need to 'mount' one of the harpoons located around location 32, 24. If you fly towards Jotunheim, as you approach it, fly along the cliff face and you should be able to spot the balconies with the harpoons. Land on the balcony and you will see the arrow that allows you to mount the harpoon to fire it. You will see you have two abilities:

1. Fire Harpoon
2. Replenish energy

There are two ways you can do this. You can choose one harpoon and just stay on it until you get all your kills. Or, you can jump between harpoons. If you want to jump around harpoons it's very simple: Spam all 10 harpoon shots off as fast as possible, use your reserve instantly and spam those 10. Dismount vehicle, move over and use the next one. Each new turret will always have full energy and the reserve wont be on CD.

The problem with this quest is the harpoons don't fire as soon as you hit the button, so it's really hard to "aim" it at any particular Proto-Drake. You basically need to just spam the button and hope you hit something. You can try and lead some close up mobs coming from left to right, but don't bother with the ones in the distance as the harpoon detonation seems random and there's no way you can judge the distance and their turn rate to lead them with any success.

Also note, You might often not get credit for killing drakes. For the first few you shoot down, you'll probably be cleaning up someone else's mess. Once they're tagged they tend to stay tagged until they die.




[80] Vile Like Fire!
From: Vile at The Shadow Vault
Objective: Steal a Njorndar Proto-Drake and use it to set fire to 10 vrykul buildings in the greater Jotunheim region.
Reward: 3g 70s and 250 reputation with Knights of the Ebon Blade

Once you have shot down the drakes, it's time to steal one and use it to burn their buildings down! You will find the Njorndar Proto-Drakes at location 27, 39 within the Jotunheim area itself. You will see an open area with the drakes along the edge. Simply mount one and fly it like you do your own flying mount. You have two abilities - basically a speed boost and the 'burn the buildings' flame balls.

This is a very easy quest as you don't even really need to aim your shots, simply hit the fire button as you fly past a building. Also note that each side of the roof can be burned, so you can use fire on each building twice or more times. Nice!



Note: The following three quests are obtained from Death's Rise.


[80] From Their Corpses, Rise!
From: Setaal Darkmender at Death's Rise
Objective: Setaal Darkmender at Death's Rise has given you the Darkmender's Tincture. Apply it to the corpses of 10 of any of the Scarlet Onslaught units found there.
Reward: 13g 23s and 250 reputation with Knights of the Ebon Blade

Onslaught Harbor, where you need to go to, is the Island located just north west of where you collect the quest - around location 10, 44. Kill the Scarlet NPCs, and then target their corpse to use the tincture. Note that using the Tincture makes the bodies disappear so make sure you loot first, particularly if you're doing Intelligence Gathering at the same time.

Also be aware that the Tincture only has 10 charges, and you can waste a charge by trying to use it on a corpse while in combat (won't work) or by using it on a corpse that has already been raised, or presumably tagged by someone else. Setaal will not give you a second Tincture unless you abandon the quest and take it up again.

Overall though, a very easy quest.




[80] No Fly Zone (Both)
From: Uzo Deathcaller at Death's Rise
Objective: Kill 10 Onslaught Gryphon Riders.
Reward: 13g 23s and 250 reputation with Knights of the Ebon Blade

You're given a Bone Gryphon which comes with four abilities (listed in the order they are located on the action bar):

1. Frost Breath - instant primary spam attack; no cooldown
2. Plague Strike - deals a small amount of direct damage and applies a DoT; has a 12 second cooldown
3. Bone Armor - instantly gives your gryphon four "bones" that absorb damage (basically a shield); has a 20 second cooldown
4. Speed Burst - doubles your flight speed for 8 seconds; has a 1 minute cooldown

Head over to Onslaught Harbor to the west of Death's Rise and find a safe spot to land, then use the the Bone Gryphon to hop on. Use Bone Armor whenever the cooldown is finished. When fighting the Onslaught Gryphon Riders, start off with Plague Strike and spam Frost Breath until the rider is dead. Kill ten riders to complete the quest.

If your Bone Gryphon's health is low, find a safe spot to dismount and re-summon it. You'll hop on a new Bone Gryphon will full health.

When turning in the quest, make sure to dismount your Bone Gryphon and use your own mount to fly back to Death's Rise. If you leave Onslaught Harbor, you will get a warning that says you might lose your Bone Gryphon. Although it's possible to get to Death's Rise while on the Bone Gryphon, you should just play it safe and use your own mount.

Of course, you can always kill the riders the old fashioned way: with your own weapons and spells.

Icecrown Glacier - Activating Horde Quests

Unfortunately, there is no specific quest line you need to do in order to activate the Icecrown Dailies. Really, you just need to work your way through the ones available, and as you do, more and more daily quests open up. I won't go into great detail on how to complete each quest, it would just get too long. I will link the quests I did and what dailies it opened up so help you not miss any.

First things first, you need to locate the Orgrim's Hammer and speak to Koltira Deathweaver, a blood elf aboard it. The Orgrim's Hammer is actually a ship that loops around the north-east area of Icecrown, however is easy to locate by simply open your map and looking for the icons. You can see the loop it does on this map, and the icon you are looking for is outlined in the image below.

Koltira Deathweaver kicks off your first questing series with: It's All Fun and Games. You need to Destroy The Ocular, which is located at the TOP of the building around location 44, 20 (map). It's a huge big eyeball, at the very very top of the point - outside, not inside the building. The Eyesore Blaster you are given, has an 80 Yard range which is farther than the eye can see you at, unfortunately 80 Yards is further than you can be to get kill credit.

Easiest way to get credit for the kill is to:

1. Stay at max range for the gun (don't have to be below the eye.. doesn't matter where, just stay at the gun's max range)
2. Repeatedly shoot the eye until you get it to 12.6K HP left.
3. The gun does exactly 12.6K damage so for the last shot, just fly in close to the eye for the last shot, and blast it on last time to kill it.

The eye may hit you once or twice, but this won't be not enough to kill you.

After that, it's onto the next stages of the quest line! I Have an Idea, But First... and then Free Your Mind

• If He Cannot Be Turned
  • The Shadow Vault
  • The Duke and Honor Challenge (pick up at the same time)
  • Shadow Vault Decree. While you're doing Shadow Vault Decree, do the quest Get the Key from Vaelen the Flayed located in front of Thane Ufrang, which the gives you Let the Baron Know.

• Eliminate the Competition from The Leaper
  • The Bone Witch

I also did the following quests while doing the above, whether they are required or not I am not 100% sure. If the daily, or any of the above don't open up, the these...

• Blackwatch
  • Where Are They Coming From?
  • Destroying the Altars
  • and Death's Gaze
• Spill Their Blood

Completing the above opens the following:

• Crush Dem Vrykuls!
• Ebon Blade Prisoners
• Vandalizing Jotunheim
• And... Leave Our Mark (Daily!)

First Daily!
After you have Eliminated the Competition, Leave our Mark becomes available which is your first daily! Huzzah! Very easy quest to do, and you can do it while completing the other 3 listed above. You can also hand in The Bone Witch in the same area and collect Deep in the Bowels of The Underhalls and Reading the Bones, which is a repeatable (not daily) quest to hand in 15 Vrykul Bones for your choice of temporary buff.

Also, when you do Deep in the Bowels of the Underhalls, Apprentice Osterkilgr will drop Dr. Terrible's "Building a Better Flesh Giant", which starts the quest The Sum is Greater than the Parts, which you should do before leaving The Underhalls. There is also Revenge for the Vargul from Bethod Feigr located in the Underhalls too...

The Sum is Greater than the Parts leads The Art of Being a Water Terror and Through the Eye which I did before returning to The Shadow Vault to hand in and picking up:

• Vile Like Fire! (Daily!) (after handing in Crush Dem Vrykuls!)
• Shoot 'Em Up (Daily!)
• To the Rise with all Due Haste!
  • The Story Thus Far...
  • Blood in the Water
  • You'll Need a Gryphon

• Intelligence Gathering (Daily!)
• From Their Corpses, Rise! (Daily!)
  The above two become available from NPC's at Death's Rise when you finish 'The Story Thus Far...'

• The Grand (Admiral's) Plan - Quest from Note from the Grand Admiral which can drop while you're doing the above two dailies.
  • In Strict Confidence
