! Warning !
Many of the 'vehicles' inside the Ember Court are not functioning correctly with action bar addons, such as ElvUI or Bartender. I highly recommend that you either disable such, or enable the Default Vehicle Bar.
Similarly; Nameplate addons are currently hiding Mood icons on Guests, and some important progress bars on certain NPCs. Again I recommend that you disable them, or find and enable an option to use the Blizzard bars for Friendly NPCs.
Events affected by this will be denoted by a *Note.

Changelog (Last updated 5th June)

5th June: Added Transport Mirror map and coords to Mystery Mirrors, and added this Changelog for extra visibility for updates. Ritual of Absolution is still bugged.

The Master of Ceremonies AchievementZeremonienmeisterDer FestheroldLangweilig wird es jedenfalls nieGewinnender Gastgeber

TL:DR - Tell me how to earn Master of Ceremonies easily

There is more than one way to do this - this method uses the fastest events, while still trying to keep guests somewhat happy. They would be happier if Ritual of Absolution wasn't bugged so we could use Atoning Rituals.

Increase your Reputation with the Ember Court to AT LEAST Honored to buy Gebäude: Gräberbecken, Gebäude: Wachstube, and Personal: Bühnencrew.
I recommend getting to Exalted for the additional quests to increase your time limit!
Complete the quest Gluthof: Der Verschüttete Kelch to unlock it.
Using Atoning Rituals would be better and faster, but it's bugged - I'll update this when it's fixed.
Collect 3 Botschafterreserve from Callings to ensure you have enough time.
Invite some combination of Sika, Dromanin Aliothe, Polemarch Adrestes, and Die Gräfin, or all four.
This manipulates the Party Crasher event to always spawn a boss, and Sika lets us see the dripping candles easily.
Choose the Amenities Lost Chalice Band, Tubbins's Tea Party, and Traditional decorations, choose whatever for Security, though Stoneborn Reserves is best.
Start the Court and complete A Quiet Moment, then collect the Band's instruments and light the stage lights to complete Concert Kick-Off as soon as preparation time ends.
Complete Dance for Love and Tea Time.
You can complete Tea Time really fast by clicking off the teapot buffs if you don't want to serve tea.
Complete Traditional Candles when they set on fire, and the 2 random events when they spawn.
You don't need Animaversetztes Wasser to complete Roaring Fires, it will auto-complete at the end, but you can put out the fires if you want, and have time.
Use your 3 Botschafterreserve when the Party Crashers arrive for more time if needed, then complete Party Crashers and kill the boss that spawns afterwards.

Congratulations - Enjoy your new achievement!

What Are Events?

6 from Amenities - 2 each from Entertainment, Refreshments, and Decorations.

1 or 2 from Party Crashers - 1 from the Party Crashers! event, and 1 boss event.

How did you get those? (For anyone interested in the process)

Firstly I used the Permutations Calculator on mathsisfun.com to list all the possible permutations.
(4 Slots)^(4 Guests) = 256, and I wasn't going to try listing them by hand.

^ Picture is worth 1,000 words - I doodled notes on it for you
Then I pasted the list into a Google Sheet and used Data > Separate text into columns. After running Find&Replace on each column I then had a full list of each set of 4 guests possible.
Finally I just had to go down the list and find the sets that didn't have any conflicting interests, which admittedly did take.... a while. Unless I made a mistake there are 39.

^ It looks like this, feel free to make a copy for whatever

An Acknowledgement
I'd like to say a very special thank you to HansEderer for centralising so much information in their incredible comment on the Introduction to the Ember Court guide. Unfortunately for my spare time I had already researched the bulk of this guide before finding it, but having all the links and event names in one place was incredible and saved me hours of searching and confirmation.You are an amazing person!

Another of your weak rituals, Accuser? Pathetic.

Choose your words carefully, or I'll make you choke on 'em!

Do your worst, losers.

Ha, like you bunch of idiots know anything.

I hope you've gotten better at this, Accuser. Your last ritual was flat-out embarrassing.

Release me, so we can settle this like warriors!

What new idiocy is this, Accuser?

You judgment monkeys don't scare me!

Coward

Do not judge me harshly. I tried to avoid trouble.

He made me do all of it! I didn't want to!

I did not ask for my burdens! I owed them nothing!

I did nothing wrong. I was a victim too!

I shouldn't be here! I was just following orders!

It can't be wrong to protect yourself.

There was nothing I could've done. They were doomed regardless.

W-Why am I up here?

Greed

Hey, this reminds me of some of my own parties... you should've seen 'em...

I'd better be getting paid for this.

This place could use some remodeling.

Those earrings are gorgeous! Must be worth a fortune.

Time is money. So let's hurry this up.

Who's paying for all of this? I'd like to meet them.

You call this boring snoozefest a party?

You there, are you going to finish that drink?

Hypocrite

Come now, be reasonable. I was nothing like the peasants.

Have you heard what the other souls did? Quite wicked, indeed...

Hmph. I've presided over such proceedings before.

I can't believe I'm being lumped in with these other souls. I'm nothing like them!

I had very good reasons for what I did. I was the exception.

I love a good judgment... how about we do the Maw Walker next?

I must admit, I am unaccustomed to accusation.

Some people truly are above the law. You all must see that.

Pride

Ask your questions. I shall no doubt enlighten you with my responses.

I do not answer to you, Accuser. I do not answer to anyone!

I normally don't speak with such... lowly personages. I will make an exception this once.

Look at this! Even in the afterlife, I command an audience!

None shall judge me! You cannot even comprehend me!

This is insulting! I don't have to stand for this!

This sort of petty ritual is beneath me.

What is it now? I'm quite busy.

Secondary Quotes; they appear if you guess wrongAbusive

Those are the actions of weak men!

You idiot! You can't do anything right!

You're as incompetent as I expected.

Coward

My boss would never have allowed that.

No! I wasn't like that... I wanted to help.

Who told you that? They're lying!

Greed

Ha, I wouldn't waste time or money on that.

Nah. I've got better things to do.

Psh. Whatever they're paying you is too much...

Hypocrite

Me? I wouldn't be caught dead doing such a thing.

Others may do such things, but not I.

You can't prove a thing.

Pride

Ha! You know nothing about me.

I would never! How dare you accuse ME of such things!

Typical ignorant accusations from the lowly rabble.

Please Note
As of this moment this is only a theory of how Security and Party Crashers interact, one that I am currently trying to disprove through repeated experiments using clones on the PTR.
So far it's holding true, but if you've experienced something different I'd love to hear about it.

SquireKel for their making Guide Writing for Dummies, so I could make the guide all fancy.

Sanghelios and Anshlun for their Basic and Strategy guides for the Ember Court, which helped me get started at the very beginning.

My guildmates for inviting me to their Parties for research, and for putting up with my overenthusiasm for it.

... and anyone and everyone else who has found and posted information about the Ember Court - you are all amazing!

Kommentar von HansEderer

This is beautiful. Thanks so much for making this guide. This is really, really thorough. I’m glad I was of some help in your efforts here. Also omg how have I done this many courts and not known some of these things...

I’ll make sure to give info on new things as I unlock them. Choofa’s mushrooms could be handy to map out similar to the mirrors. I’m hoping that my data contributions via the Wowhead client are helping with that as well.

I knew(hoped) there were other people who liked the court!

Kommentar von kragragh

I've been looking for all this information for a while...this guide is amazing!

Kommentar von Shirah2003

As a fellow guildie I'm glad this guide is finally done, no more talking about tea parties now.
As a fellow venthyr this will be so helpfull, and maybe even make Ember Court a bit more fun.
As a completionist, I am not happy there is so much work to do in this event.

But mainly, this is a great guide and I hope many people will get some great tips from this awesome guide!

Kommentar von Ranlom

What an amazing guide, great work!
Would you mind if I will translate it to Russian? Then even more people will find it helpful)

Kommentar von Daddyrage1603

This is incredible. I’ve been doing my weekly ember court since launch and I’ve been missing several events. Thank you for all the research and time put into this guide!

Kommentar von Daarian

This is awesome. I've wanted this for forever, glad it finally exists!
I feel like you should also mention the little things that are always present so long as they apply to a mood a guest wants.
By that I mean the things like the piles of stone you can clean up for +clean, or the 'happy scrubber' dredgers you can give a break for +messy, for example. My last ember court I didn't have any events that pertained to clean as I was focused on humble/safe, but Mikanikos also cares about clean (he was the only guest I had that did), and the piles of rubble were available to clean up. If you don't have any guests that care about cleanliness though, the piles don't show up I don't think? You'd probably know better than me, though, I've been mainlining Sika for 2 months before this trying to get the anima water for the candles and at this point I don't remember what a court without someone wanting clean is like, lol.
Another is the training dummies, and, yes, I know you have to get those from a reward chest, but they're around no matter what events you have, and can serve as a boost/'extra' event for exciting, so even if you don't have anything more than 1 of the possible 3 events for exciting, you still have 2 things you can do for +exciting.

Kommentar von tubaranguejo

I wanted this so much, thank you for that!

Kommentar von numy

I created set of weakauras to help me during the court itself:
Ember Court - Happiness shows the current mood of every invited guest. This works even if you have a nameplate addon that hides the normal mood UI. With the added bonus that you don't have to be anywhere close to your guest to know how happy they are :)
This weakaura basically fixes the warning about nameplate addons in the guide :)

Ember Court - Atoning Rituals will show the correct sin committed during the atoning rituals
Ember Court - Dance for love is basically the same thing, but for the dance with Iven minigame instead.

Ember Court - Atmosphere shows the actual numbers that make up the atmosphere of your court, next to the bars. This makes it easier to also see how much gain an activity actually gives you (this turns out to be anywhere between 1% and 30% depending on activity)

Kommentar von Caolynn

Thank you for this guide, it is a tremendous help !

Kommentar von entropicdragon

A note for the "Mortal Reminders" decoration: the "Casual" aspect is optional if you are trying to run a Formal/Relaxing court. Using the Ta'sarans Falle on the Verdächtiger Kellners will trap them and spawn the Gestohlenes Andenken for +Relaxing, but you can just leave the NPC there (rather than clicking on it to collect for tossing) and you won't lose any Formal atmosphere. (The Relaxing aspect is also optional, obviously.)

Great guide BTW, I rely on it every week.

Kommentar von Poppers4272

Thank you so much for this guide! Have loved doing my parties, but had no idea how I was going to get Zeremonienmeister, but followed your instructions above and got it in one! I didn't even need the extra time!

Kommentar von Lemistio

What if the boss is not spawning?

Kommentar von ElmaSaenji

At the start part of The Ember Court (preparations) I can see the event star Unter die Gäste mischen on my map but I can't complete it. I tried to speak with guests and with the Special Guest (Lady Moonberry for example) but it didn't finished although I spent all preparation time (2m 30s) for it. Anybody knows something about it?

Kommentar von Gitchegumee

I'd like to add: Sire Denathrius (his image, from Hallow's End event) can be served Tea! Doing so gives bonus happiness to all guests!

Kommentar von MrPineapple

your permutation math really bothers me but otherwise great work, this is such a better guide than the other ones.

Kommentar von Lilyoptra

Was a little worried cause I was 9/10 and no fires left to put out for Roaring Fires (guess you only have so long to do that and Party Crashers popped at same time), but what the author says is true. It auto-completed and I got my 10/10 and the chieve. I love the Ember Court but it is not easy to understand how the events work (and no way to practice and learn.) Thank you for a great guide!

Kommentar von Clawmarks

I have incorporated this guide extensively into my (late-to-the-game) approach to Ember Court, and it has been stellar! I'm only five court favors away from The Party Herald title, thank you. ^_^

One thing I want to note, largely because I could find this information nowhere, is that guests with multiple atmosphere preferences do not need to have all of them met. I was able to host a party with both Rendel & Cudgleface (messy, relaxing) and Lady Moonberry (messy, exciting, casual). By achieving a messy and casual atmosphere, while leaving relaxing/exciting neutral, I was able to make both of them—and all my guests—elated, easily. It can meet eschewing events that would affect the conflicting atmosphere one way or the other, but it's helpful to keep in mind if you're working toward a specific tribute reward!

Kommentar von weltallica

Now that Shadowlands is over, I wish Blizzard would flip the switch and make this a daily, not weekly.
