Basically you activate the item, and you get a small circle. You place the circle over the brazier that has the hunters mark over it, and left click. Fairly straightforward.

It helps to have the torches on your toolbar, so you can just hit "1" and you get your circle. Makes it a little faster.

Remember also that you can retake the quest, of course.

Deceptively easy task made annoyingly difficult due to the fact there will likely be 10+ people also trying to do the same thing, making shadow tracking a real pain.

Try and do it at a capital city not normally frequented, or wait until off-peak hours if you just can't do it.

Kommentar von Elinye

You have to hit 8 braziers to complete the quest. It took me several tries, but it really does help to have the torches in your toolbar. The speed at which the arrows change is maddening.

At level 57 the quest gave me 8750xp and 85 silver, along with the 5 Burning Blossoms. Very easy quest and easy xp!

Kommentar von venvenae

I found that it helped me if I moved up closer to the targets after accepting the quest. You cant get too far away from the bonfire tho. After countless attempts I got it second try doing it this way.

Kommentar von tishy19

For Hunters, throw on your Aspect of the Cheetah and it makes this so much easier.

Kommentar von 168080

For some reason a lot of people forget that you have a hotbar to abuse for this quest! Just drag the torches to a number so you can keep your cursor on the braziers.

Kommentar von 336543

I was having a difficult time with this quest until I went to Darnassus. The layout of the braziers is slightly different, and no one was there. I was able to complete the quest on the first try.

Kommentar von 150475

Hitting every other one isn't required for the win but is very helpful and keeps you from getting frustrated...save all your frustration for the torch catching. Not only is it difficult but 20 others will be doing at the same time and in the same direction as you so if you win it's by pure luck that you found your own torch.

Kommentar von 403411

I'm having trouble completing this quest as i have major lag.....550ms latency.

Kommentar von 403588

It absolutely helps to put the torch in the number slot of your toolbar. I tried several times before I moved it to the number slot and used aspect of the cheetah, then I got it the first time.

Kommentar von 368441

despite all the help from these comments, i was just plain too laggy to get this thing done in stormwind. So i headed off to the deadest place on my server, the Exodar. No lag, fine FPS, and the braziers are all bunched together. did both the regular and daily torch quests in 20 minutes.

Kommentar von ShoeboxWarrior

I've had trouble with this quest. I tried it in Darnassus first but the torches kept saying "this item is not ready" every time I hit the key I linked them to on the hotbar. I ended up hitting the key and the mouse button several times for each throw just to get the torch airborne. I have yet to try this again, as I fear I will throw my computer across the room.

Kommentar von 733706

The major problem with this one was the fact that by the time you get your cursor on the brazier, the hunter's mark is gone.

The fact that the torch-throwing contest was set up in SW right next to where the cooking daily is located meant that people were frequently getting in my line of sight.

I completed the quest by clicking on the quest-giver, then turning around and getting myself set up before accepting the quest. Then I accepted the quest already in positon and fired away until I got it right.

Kommentar von 824969

This took me about 5 or 6 times to do but... go every other time the arrow is on the braizer, good luck :)

Kommentar von Elivran

Totally agree with you, this is a nonsense quest that was designed by a Blizz employee that probably hates his/her job and has taken frustrations out on us.

I tried hitting every other pot, I have put the torches on my hotbar, disabled all my addons etc etc etc and all to no avail.

I wish Blizz would take into consideration lag that people encounter rather that giving us stupid quests to do and then tell us to delete this folder and then delete that folder to fix the lag.

Come on Blizz do you want me to play or throw my computer across the room.

Kommentar von CircleofHealing

Big ping times from Australia and the brazier layout pretty well made this impossible in Ironforge and Stormwind, even with the torch hot keyed. Turned off the error speech in audio after getting "That spell is not ready yet" over and over. It was awful, so I feel your guys pain.

Tried it in Exodar where the layout is a bit different and braziers are a little closer and got it first pop. The subsequent 20 brazier daily was achievable too.

Kommentar von 844859

the one dude was right it is much easier in exodar got it first try just sucked traveling there:)

Kommentar von Seedyranger

I guess the journey to Exodar is made a bit easier if you HS to Darn then use the portal in the temple...better check the damn thing's still there I suppose! :-)

Kommentar von Chetti

It took me a few times even using the advice of hitting every other brazier. This is good advice though, put the torch on your hotbar, and go after every other one starting with the second. This gives time for the cooldown and for your eyes to follow the marker and get your mouse over there. I started counting out loud each time I hit one just to make sure it wasn't gipping me. Because I ended up failing, not sure if its a timed thing or if you only get so many markers to hit, I think I was getting 7 and failing. Finally got the 8th, it helped to count out loud each time one hit. Good luck!

Though, I do agree, this is one of those pointless holiday things I wouldn't do if it weren't a part of the achievement.. and I do so love titles.

Kommentar von 849696

Ugh, I can't seem to do this stupid quest in Darnassus. Unlike in SW, the quest giver is too far away from the torches to be able to toss them without moving closer, which wastes precious time. Lame, lame, lame. And the other one is even worse. The master fire eater can suck it.

Kommentar von 1000753

I tried this quest multiple times in both Stormwind (too much lag to effectively do anything) and Darnassus (bad layout of braziers) to no avail and a lot of frustration. However, the Exodar ones are very easy and well laid out (also not too crowded).

I got it on Exodar first try. Definitely recommend going to Exodar, even if it is a longer trip.

Kommentar von 1002015

As with any timing game... If you have a slow laggy computer like I do... turn your graphics down. If you dont then you wont see 1/2 of the torches light up and even the ones you do see might not really be at the right time for you to catch them and get credit.

Only thing I wish blizz had done differently was to put some kind of counter somewhere so you would know how you were doing.

Kommentar von MoarHeroisms

The marked braziers were updated this year to spawn more than one at a time and at a higher rate, making it faster and more fun to complete.

Torch Tossing

Kommentar von Robota

Maybe some of the problems come from others being as stupid as me: you have to remain next to the questgiver/bonfire to work - if you go too near to the flames, it doesn't work. If no flame lights up over the marked braziers once you hit them, you're too near. Once I figured that out it was totally easy...

Kommentar von Pallaxis

I came here looking for answers on why the torch would say 'Requires Midsummer Bonfire', before realizing that you need to stand back a certain distance from the fires to be able to throw the torch at them /facepalm

Kommentar von Elknot

Impossible to do with high ping.

Kommentar von Steelhammer

I tried something that actually worked! instead trying to hit the braziers as the Marks show upon them, I kept throwing torchs at one single same brazier. Everytime the mark showed in the one I choose I would get credit because I was already throwing at it. I suggest you guys doing the same and will complete the quest in the end of the time required.

Kommentar von Geekgirl101

Must be broken, I know I've hit a dozen if not more and yet it said I had failed it.

Kommentar von Scoobydeux

This applies to the one-time torch tossing quest, the one the page is supposed to be about, not to the repeatable dailies. It may apply to them as well, but I find the torch catching quest to be annoying enough to avoid doing those, and so am not in a position to verify that.

Unless the mechanic has changed, you must do this quest and the subsequent quest, Fackeln fangen, in order to turn on your toon's catching the Jonglierfackel. Without this ability, you cannot complete Fackeljongleur. There is really no other good reason to do this unless you are hard up for a last few blossoms.

Simple version; stand by the bonfire, click a brazier with a targeting arrow above it to toss a practice torch at it, hit the brazier with the torch while the targeting arrow is still there. Do this eight times before your time runs out. You have about two seconds per toss.

The truth; this is annoying as =bleep=; but you can make it marginally better.

As the say in real estate, location, location, location. Avoid Storm Wind City (and Orgrimmar for Horde) because the response in the heavily populated cities is enough worse to affect your completion rate.

Hotkey readying the torches by dragging the Übungsfackeln onto your tool bar. This will almost certainly screw up your first attempt, but it is necessary. You will still have to click your target brazier with your mouse after you ready your torch.

The individual torch completion depends on hitting a brazier while the targeting arrow is present. Toss at a fresh arrow, not at one that is going to fade away soon. The game does not actually check that the arrow was present when you started, so you can anticipate the arrows. Skipping every other arrows is good advice; it matches the timing of your tosses. Try to get a sense for the timing of the appearance of the arrows.

Don't worry about failing, it is very easy to restart until you get it. You used to have to manually abandon each failed attempt, but that has been cleaned up, just re-accept the quest to restart.

Doing it once on a toon grants the ability; you do not have to repeat it each year, although it's not like tossing torches is much of a thing in WoW. It can be; multiple toons with the ability to catch these specific torches can toss them back and forth.

Kommentar von Ninjavocado

You can tell you hit the brazier when you see a column of flame. It is possible to hit the same brazier more than once in a time window. The method that worked for me was just targeting a single one and just spamming it with torches.

Kommentar von Strokelock

For 2018, do this:

Type /macro and name it something.
In the macro box, type:

/cast Practice Torches

Drag the macro to a slot on you action bar ( I always use my 2ndary bar for stuff like this - aka disposable)
Start the event, spam the button and simply aim at the Newest Brazier Arrows: Done!

Enjoy!

Kommentar von Jeffrion

Best place to do this one is The Exodar. The braziers are right next to each other, not spread out like in the other cities.

Kommentar von Eziair

Messed up in Stormwind this year.
The markers are spawning about 12+ feet behind the braziers.
Think it's been messed up by the Trading Post now being in it's spot.
It's like the braziers have been moved in closer to the bonfire but the markers never moved.

You need to aim at the markers and NOT the braziers.

Kommentar von fureeous

In 2023 I found that this quest was basically broken in Stormwind. The markers did not align with the braziers and no matter what I did I could not get credit.

I recommend doing this in The Exodar which has a simpler layout and actually works.

You have to target the braziers when they have a hunters mark arrow on them. Note that the quest does not count up credit as you do them but will complete once you hit Eight.

Kommentar von NinjaLooterLoveU

2023 Event. Torch Tossing quest in Stormwind is broken. Arrows all over the screen. Wrong locations. Screenshot submitted.

Kommentar von Spilledstars

2023 ugh. Solved anyway, consider it bugged, but here's how.

You need to stand next to the summer bonfire. If you don't you can't relight your torches.

You need to throw at the markers where braziers used to be in a past year. The only way to see this is to mess with your camera angle so you have more an overhead view. I chose an angle pointing from the shop roofs toward the mailbox-and-wall-of-stockades area.

You need to fight their horrible little unlisted timer. I did this by aiming at every other one only. Whichever was newest, I had some sadsack chance of getting.

What it looks like when you succeed at the torch hitting Is a flaring fire column.

You have to hit 8 of these things before the timer's out. Why would anyone bother? I think a few quests down the line you get to keep an item that leads to an achieve.

YMMV but I don't think this was all that fun.
