Kommentar von Celestri

The ONLY thing that sucks about the new Darkmoon Faire is that it's still only once a month.

They're doing all this work... why not leave it open all the time? Seriously. Ugh.

And when 4.3 releases, we'll probably have to wait for 3 weeks before we can see this.

Horrible idea. C'mon blizz.

Kommentar von error10

The island is Contested territory, though the immediate Faire grounds is a Sanctuary. The sanctuary area includes the Darkmoon Path leading from the north end of the island where you zone in from Elwynn Forest or Mulgore. (The point where you port in is marked as a vortex on the map.) Return portals to Elwynn Forest and Mulgore are located at the south end of the walk, at the end of the boardwalk; look for the Alliance and Horde banners. The arena near the south end of the island is a free-for-all PvP area.

Kommentar von rogerdaives

As lore, does it have anything? or is it even in Azeroth?

Kommentar von Kidja

Darkoom Fair began, as horde in order to go to Darkmoon island you need to go to Mulgore.
Cords (37.6,36.6) Map
You can also speak with NPC Darkmoon Fairy Mystic Mage to teleport you to Mulgore he is located near fly master in Orgrimmar.

Kommentar von Kilroy7456

stupid question maybe, but.. what's up with that cave?

Kommentar von Bengarion

For the Alliance, the faire entrance is in Goldshire, Elwynn Forest - 41.82, 68.43 - just behind the NPC Remy "Two Times".

The exit portal from Darkmoon Island is on the docks. There are two portals on the docks, similar to the pair found in Shattrath. (50.54, 90,46) Just follow the main path through the faire heading toward the docks . "You can't miss it." You are ported back to Goldshire - not the to the mage tower, Wizard's Sanctum, in Stormwind.

btw - The portal to Darkmoon Island is free. A previous comment makes it sound like you're charged 10g for the port.

Curious fact: The faire portals in Elwynn Forest and Mulgore are both useable by either faction. The return portals at the faire, though, are faction specific.

Kommentar von Tharama

If your times in the... living world of Darkmoon Island grow boring, perhaps you should take a trip around the isle looking for the six ghosts, each with their own little tale... But you yourself must be dead to see them...

There is a Vash'jir-style underwater cave under a shipreck on the Eastern side of the island. So far, it's empty, but it's neat to see the little details they put into the island.

Kommentar von Gargot

Darkmoon Island is a new place to catch a rare fish for One That Didn't Get Away. i caught Steelscale Crushfish after 20 cast.

Kommentar von 917380

this is a very detailed area, very good job blizz, well designed quests etc. but i dont like the idea of a week per month. :/. plus, anyone else wondering whats gonna happen with the pavillions or the two caves on the eastern side (one isnt marked on the map, further inland)?

Kommentar von Deathzuk

So seriously. Am I the only one saw that place and thought "Man.. That's something the Twilight Hammer would throw together late at night if they were all drunk." ? xD
Very nice. =P

Kommentar von 485434

In the northern part of the islands, below the cliffs, there's one tree with five cages hanging from its branches and one leaning against its trunk. Each cage has a skeleton in it, and there's a spike protruding from the trunk with various bones tied to it. Creepy.

Kommentar von DynaMike

I couldn't help but notice the cave in the southeastern part of the island. I did a little exploring earlier today but the cave was empty. Ideal place for a rare spawn on a timer, perhaps?

Kommentar von 294061

Some friends and I were running around here and noticed how creepy this place actually is.

There's a vendor in the woods that offers up meat dishes from each major city.

Ships wrecked all over the shores and in the water.

The large eye at the entrance is very LoTR/Sauran/All Seeing Eye. There are also faces on each of the tree trunks at the entrance which just happen to be shaped very tentacle like with teeth on them.

A tree with captives hung in cages, long dead of course. A knife sticking out of the tree.

The banner near Gargantua features a gorilla maiming a unicorn.

In the mountain area the ground is very eerie and red as if covered in blood. There are what look to be remains of buildings as well.

Along the path down there are flashing eyes looking out at you among the tree roots.

If you die you can talk to 7 ghosts that have pats around the island, they will tell you various creepy stories about their lives and the faire. When you're alive these pats look like sparkling wispy trails along the ground.

Look up into the trees and occasionally great flocks of what look to be undead bats will fly around and go straight through the trees.

Kommentar von dslg604t

There's a series of arrows pointing towards the Faire. In order they are:

"Ahead of You, Down the Path"
"A Majestic, Magical Faire!"
"Ignore the Darkened, Eerie Woods"
"Ignore the Eyes That Blink and Stare"
"Fun & Games & Wondrous Sights!"
"Music & Fireworks to Light Up the Night!"
"Do Not Stop! You're Nearly There!"
"Behold, My Friend: THE DARKMOON FAIRE!"

In case you guys don't realise, it's a poem.

Kommentar von Rycarhunter

what do the closed pavillions do? Or better yet what will they do?

Kommentar von 764151

If you fish off the darkmoon boardwalk you can fish up a new and ever so cute SEA PONY! :D Just got mine. It floats around you in it's own personal bubble and makes assorted noises when you click it. Something for you achievement folks. Drop rate looks to be about 1 in 100.

So get out there and start fishing! :D *added in a screenshot of it* ^-^

Kommentar von 667361

The only thing they're missing is a roller coaster ride. Would be nice if they did that. :)

Kommentar von Narribri

Nice that they Level 90 Elite Tauren Chieftains playing on island.

Kommentar von Haleth

This land really makes me think that those Darkmoon guys are up to no good. Just look at the place, it's so creepy.

Kommentar von Dreaker

I used the Eagle Eye to peek behind the under construction signs but there's nothing.

Kommentar von Jahrok

Sometimes fishing is sort of influences by mobs. The mobs range from 40ish to 85 wolves but when fishing I roamed and found nodes and got stuff like the savage leathers and so on. Very lucrative

Kommentar von 920484

Goodness, the Island become like Elwynn. At least that horror only lasts a week though. It's a great redo of the Faire imo. They made it an event I'd actually *want* to do.

Kommentar von 821763

I have 450 of the darkmoon fair tickets from last time before 4.3 is there anywhere to trade them in? kind of a waste now if i cant

Kommentar von 921439

How to break into construction sites:
Step One: Equip you wooly mamoth.
Step Two: Ram into the left edge while spamming your 'jump' key.
Step Three: Dismount and enjoy!

Kommentar von qaccy

If you're online, it's possible to remain on the Faire grounds even after the Faire "closes" at 11:59 PM (server time) on Saturday night. ~~All of the NPCs remain, and the daily quests for the games will also reset as normal.~~ The Darkmoon Deathmatch prize chest will not spawn if the Faire is not active, however. When you log out, you'll be forcibly ejected to Mulgore/Elwynn Forest the next time you log in.

EDIT: All NPCs on the island now despawn when the Faire closes. With the exception of fishing, there is no longer any reason to remain on the island after midnight.

Kommentar von Arbron

This zone reminds me a lot of Witchyworld from Banjo-Tooie (Youtube it).

Kommentar von timbazi

Can one without the Cataclysm expansion go to this zone?

Kommentar von 931068

Just caught a sea pony at skill level 62 :D

Kommentar von Dernar

The Darkmoon Faire no longer stays open after 11:59pm on Saturdays, even if you were already inside before the portal closed.

While the NPCs used to remain active and would even give fresh dailies when reset came (if you stuck around that long), they now despawn shortly after the faire is scheduled to close.

The Deathmatch chest will not spawn.
Vendors disappear.
Even the fishing pools stop spawning.

You can remain on the island if you want, but you're going to be all alone.

To make matters worse, you can still hear the sounds of the faire after everything despawns. You can hear the carnies laughing, children playing, whistles blowing, and crowds rustling, but no one is there.

And you thought this Island was creepy when it was occupied...

Kommentar von 962957

There is a way to look inside the tents that are labeled as off limits. There's a guide on YouTube if you search "Darkmoon secret".

Kommentar von pyrannor2012

Could the Darkmoon Island Cave be the new home of the dreaded Darkmoon Rabbit? Look at the bones!

Kommentar von Archnichel

How do you leave? Aside from using your Hearthstone..

Kommentar von 912149

i could easily see bliz having the darkmoon island being taken over or cursed in one of the last expantions and having it become a heroic or maby even make it a lot larger and turn it into a kick ass raid. could be cool but id hate to see the darkmoon faire go :(

Kommentar von Guy19

After playing from some time in the evening to 4 AM doing all things Darkmoon, (mostly fishing Shipwreck Debris) I grudgingly went to bed. I woke the next morn at the crack of noon to fish some more nodes, got bored and bobber hopped some Ally :P, then I decided to lose at the Darkmoon Deathmatch since it was coming up. After another fulfilling loss under my belt it was back to fishing. Then... there it was. We both saw it, a lone floating clump of shipwreck debris. Both of us darted as fast as the flying restriction would allow us to go, but I had the head start. >:D It was with a confident first go that I cast into the node, whilst my foe miscast - befuddled. Though he tried to take what is mine, I triumph this day! HUUUUUZAAAAAH! :D

The preceding is based on the true story of how I finally caught a Seepony from Versiegelte Kiste, fished from a Shipwreck Debris node on the West coast of Dunkelmond-Insel as an Ally tried to steal it. :)

Kommentar von Furp

Checked today: If you swim/walk on the water south from the cave on the right of the faire on the map, and you die of fatigue, when you release your spirit you end up in Sentinel Hill, Westfall dead. I was taking a guildie on my Grand Ice Mammoth to see how far we could go. We never made it to the end of the ocean, but when we died and ended up in Westfall next to the spirit guide, we were shocked. So, try as you might, you can never get to the end of the ocean as of now.

Kommentar von knutda

why only on the first sunday in the mounth why not all sunday?

Kommentar von 1008824

We know of 7 ghosts. While in the forest you see a tree with 6 cages hanging from a tree. All with skeletons in them. Also there is a skeleton hanging off the tree. And not that far away is an strange undead women selling questionable foods. Perhaps she is their murder?

Kommentar von 1019094

hmm how will i kill myself... I KNOW!1 ill cast path of frost and shoot myself outta the cannon

Kommentar von RyukaiSan

Everytime I enter Darkmoon Island I cant help but recall 2 quotes from the Puzzlebox of Yogg-Saron

There is a little lamb lost in dark woods

Have you had the dream again? A black goat with seven eyes that watches from the outside

Could Silus himself be the lost lamb, and could something be using the 7 ghosts as 'eyes' to watch whats going on.....

Kommentar von 696971

....is it just my server or is 5.0.4 disabled the monthly professions quests in darkmoon island?

Kommentar von 1029586

Can someone catch the Sea Pony pet from fishing without having the expansions?

Kommentar von OwlGirl

I have been looking for Griftah from Darkmoon Faire started. I never found him on the realm Steamwheedle Cartel, but on realm Darkmoon Farie (bit confusing with realm and fair having same name) he is often there. Today I met Topper McNabb on SwC realm. Does different realms have different NPC's popping in, or am I just extremely out of luck?

Kommentar von jsargent6427

While looking around the island along the upper part of the west beach, right at the grass line I found sparkling lights moving up and down the area, thinking it might be some sort of Hunter's pet I used my Flare spell, however I never saw anything. Anyone have any ideas as to what it might be, or will be?

Kommentar von Enterthevoid

Around the isle, you can find fishable "schools" of Shipwreck Debris. You can fish once or twice in one school and each time you get a "Sealed Crate". I haven't fished a lot of it, but after 10-15 crates, I can conclude that they have a rather high drop chance for Motes of Harmony (I got 6), also you might get some coins (silver probably), random alcohols, Darkmoon Firewater, food/drink either for really low or really high levels, Windwool Cloths, small chance for Ghost Iron Ores, leathers and Potions. It would be interesting to see what a hundred of those would give, since they probably have some rare drops. The information in the crates here is outdated.

On an unrelated topic, I highly doubt they will make this isle a big part of the lore (Old God raids and what not). It is an event and I don't think they themselves know what the eyes actually are, what the skeletons are, etc. I think that they were simply going for the mysterious, creepy fairy tale feeling for the island. That's all there is to it.

Kommentar von Jayrai

At the entrance of Darkmoon Island, there is now a portal to get back out!

You now don't have to run all the way to the other side of the island to get out, if you forgot your Simple Flour (or other materials for the monthly profession quests).

The Alliance and Horde portals at the docks have been updated, too.

Kommentar von Enterthevoid

Mist-shrouded Darkmoon Island is a conundrum wrapped in an enigma. It’s a place of mystery and wonder, and you wouldn’t believe the deals we made to get it… or who we made ‘em with.

Taken from WoWpedia.

Lore boner.

Kommentar von Celestri

With patch 5.2, the fish you receive from successfully fishing seems to depend on your fishing skill.

I am not entirely sure, but my characters with 350ish fishing were getting Wrath-level fish (borean man-of-war, rockfin grouper), while my one character with 550+ fishing was getting MoP-quality fish (golden carp, giant mantis shrimp).

Kommentar von Dudash

I scanned through and surprisingly I didnt see this mentioned yet but you can use flying mounts in the water and I do mean in the water. If you jump out of the water, you'll get dismounted. For some reason, It appears that it will only let you use a few flying mounts that are from Cataclysm.

For example, it will let me use my Blazing Drake, Life-Binder's Handmaiden, Twilight Harbinger, and Sandstone Drake but it won't let me use my Volcanic Stone Drake or my Drakes of the West, East, and North Winds. I don't have any of the Firelands mounts so I can't test them.

I know this isn't anything big but I thought it was neat.

Blazing Drake
Life-Binder's Handmaiden

Had a weird glitch. When I had last logged out I was on the Island, when I logged back (1 day before the faire) my character was able to run around on the island with no one else there. Almost all of the NPC's were missing, even the barrels for the Whack-a-Gnoll game were gone. The only NPC's I saw were Darkmoon Tide Crawlers. Other thing I noticed missing, before getting bored/creeped out, was there was no trash.
I submitted a couple screen shots for proof, hopefully Wowhead approves at least one of them.

MOONFANG BEWARE!

Kommentar von Sarthorius

Strange... I've found a subterranean cave entrance at 74,29, 34,53 while I was fishing those boxes around. It is close to fatigue zone, and the most weird, you can swim around there and BREATHE under the water. Didn't find anything in it at the moment I came in, but dunno if its for some kind of new blizz rare spawn or I'm mistaken.

PS: Theres a shipwreck right on top of the cave, you'll don't miss it.

Kommentar von Locantos

When you log out with an Alt/Twink on the Darkmoon island and log in one day before it starts. You will not be ported out than!
Normally you are alone expect of the critters but since patch 6.1 the NPC Malla Lohnsorg is still avaiable and you can do the race with the strider and also the archivements. You can not switch the mount so far or can get a new one because the mount pads are missing to switch / get the Mount.

I have added a screenshot of the empty faere with the NPC and critter on the 1st of May 2015.

Kommentar von ElmaSaenji

/way 31.5 33.1
There is strange but beatiful sparks and rainbow mist that runs between two points: (30.1, 38.6) and (33.5, 27,45)
And another one: (33.6, 55.9)
