Daily 1,2,3, and 4: Killing 8-15 scourge while summoning a dark messenger and other stuff



So head to the Argent Tournament, which is labeled #1. I'm going to be referring to these numbers so check that image again if you need for a reference.

You're going to pick up either 1 or 2 quests here at argent. Why 1 or 2. I say this because it depends on whether you're a champion or not. I am a champion for undercity (since I'm an undead mage), so I have 2 quests that I want to take here.

One of them is A Valiant's Field Training and the other is Taking Battle to the Enemy.

For these quests you have to kill a certain number of scourge in Icecrown. Really? Kill less than 20 mobs for gold? Hell yes I accept!

For those who don't know, the first quest is in this tent circled here:



The 2nd quest is located here:


You're also going to want to pick up some quests from Orgrim's hammer. So That should be around location #3. Fly around until you find the ship, which looks like this:



Grab whatever dailies are there from everyone that is available to you. I grabbed Not a Bug, Drag and Drop and a few others that were available to me. I will post about them later. Let's just worry about these 4 for now.

Head over to Aldurthar, which is marked #3 on that map I linked you. We're going to be heading specifically over to here:



We're going to be killing these guys:



Specifically the item you want to grab is from the Voidwalker, but you can't avoid killing his buddy there. As a mage, what I tend to do is polymorph the buddy (so that he's out of the way)



And then proceed pwning the voidwalker. Usually takes me 2 shots to down it, sometimes 3. Then you want to use the quest item on the corpse of the Voidwalker. 



This will give you 1 dark matter. You need to collect 5 for the quest, so you have to kill 5 other VWs (voidwalkers, not volkswagons). They are spread around this platform here, and if you're doing this quest all by your lucky self then you should have at least 6-7 of these floating around which is more than enough for the quest. One MAJOR caveat here is that if you kill 2 sets of voidwalkers next to each other, you'll only be able to acquire 1 dark matter. It's a glitch on Blizzard's part. When you attempt to grab the other one, it will just say "entering combat" and then it'll be a fizzle. So try to make sure theres a little bit of a distance between the mobs. If you have to take 2 on, finish 1 of them off, then kite the other one to another safer location. In any case, once you've collected all 5, you can summon the dark messenger here by clicking on the purple crystal:



Now for 3 daily quests completed in 1 go. In this same area where you summoned the dark messenger, you're going to want to kill a whole bunch of the mobs in that area. Basically classified as cultists in Aldurthar, they drop a certain item 100% of the time that you need to collect 10 of and then combine to make a writhing mass and send it flying into a cauldron. So you have to kill 10 of these guys.... and they're also considered scourge. Bwahahahahaha. And that's how you complete 3 quests in one go. Let's go over them.

First off you need to drink the following item that you get from accepting the quest:



Then you'll want to kill these bastards:



Who drop:



Kill about 6 of them or less (depending on however many you can find) and then head down the stairs towards the cauldrons (which is the final spot for the quest):



Kill some more guys until you've collected 10 tainted mass. Then you can combine them to make:



Stand near a cauldron, and toss it in. Congrats you've finished that quest. Now kill 5 or however many more you need for the Argent tournament quests, and then call it a day. You've just made 52.92 gold from quest rewards without breaking a sweat!

K time to take a break. I will continue with more dailies later on! Stay tuned!
