How is Darkmoon Faire Different in Burning Crusade Classic?Differences in Darkmoon Faire between Classic and Burning Crusade Classic

New Location: Terokkar Forest - A third Darkmoon Faire location has been added to Outland in Terokkar Forest, just south of Shattrath City. This will take its place in the rotation with the original Classic locations of Mulgore and Elwynn Forest.

Improved Reputation Gains - Darkmoon Faire turn-in quests now reward 250 Foire de Sombrelune reputation instead of 100. Reputation gains for deck turn-ins have increased to 350 reputation, up from 150.

New Darkmoon Faire vendor fare - New food and drink has been added to vendors, such as Granité de myrtilles, Boisson gazeuse de la foire « classique », Beignet, and Pilon de trotteur des forêts.

New Darkmoon Faire Cards and Decks - Four new Darkmoon Faire trinkets can be created from Darkmoon Faire cards. These have an iLevel of 100 and a required level of 70.

Differences in Darkmoon Faire between Classic and Retail

There is no Darkmoon Isle in Burning Crusade Classic. Darkmoon Faire has three static locations in Mulgore, Elwynn Forest, and Terokkar Forest, and the Faire rotates every month among them.

The Faire schedule is different. In Burning Crusade Classic, setup begins on the first Friday of the month, and the Faire opens the following Monday. You can't interact with anything in the Faire grounds during the setup period.

There are no Darkmoon Faire Mages to teleport you to the grounds in Burning Crusade Classic.

Vendors have a much more limited selection in Burning Crusade Classic.

In Burning Crusade Classic, Foire de Sombrelune doesn't earn you anything other than the usual changes in vendor prices that come with any reputation improvements.

Games in the TBC Darkmoon Faire are just there for play. They don't have any associated daily quests and there are no prizes or reputation that comes from playing them.

The +5 Profession quests that exist in Retail Darkmoon Faire were not introduced until Cataclysm, so are not present in TBC.

Faire Setup in MulgoreDarkmoon Faire LocationsReaching the Elwynn Forest Darkmoon Faire as Horde

Go to the zeppelin platform in either Ogrimmar or Undercity and take the zeppelin to Grom'gol Base Camp in Stranglethorn Vale.

Once in Grom'gol (don't forget to pick up the flight point if you don't have it), take the road northeast out of the camp, and turn left at the T intersection. Travel north along this road until you cross into Duskwood.

Follow the road north, but keep your eye out for a small Alliance guard encampment on the right side of the road, near the junction of the east-west road. As soon as you see it, swing west to avoid this camp. Do not turn onto the road, but head overland north between the Twilight Grove and Raven Hill Cemetery.

Stay north in this corridor until you hit the river (ideally you want to be around 30,24 in Duskwood). Cross the river into Elwynn Forest.

Head north, keeping the farm (Maclure Vineyards) to your right. You will soon see the Darkmoon Faire grounds, just south of Goldshire.

Reaching the Mulgore Darkmoon Faire as AllianceShorter but Riskier: Menethil Harbor > Theramore > Dustwallow Marsh > Barrens > Mulgore

Fly to Menethil Harbor in Wetlands, and take the boat to Theramore.

From Theramore, run northwest into Dustwallow Marsh and follow the road as it winds north, then west, then south, and then west again toward the Barrens.

Upon entering the Barrens, go west and then turn north on the main road. When you can see Camp Taurajo up ahead, swing west toward the mountains and pass south of Camp T, picking up the road going west into Mulgore on the other side.

Go west into Mulgore until you see a small dirt road heading north, just to the east of the pond (this route avoids Bloodhoof Village and mostly avoids a guard that can wander this road, although you will need to keep an eye out for him).

Keep the pond at your left shoulder and follow it around until you pick up the road again going north. This will take you safely into the Darkmoon Faire grounds.

Dustwallow Marsh Map

Barrens Map

Mulgore Map

Longer but Safer: Stormwind > Elwynn > Duskwood > Stranglethorn > Ratchet > Barrens > Mulgore

Take your best route to Stormwind City, and exit the city into Elwynn Forest. Run south to Goldshire, and turn east.

Run east across Elwynn Forest into Redridge Mountains.

In Redridge, take your first right and run south into Duskwood.

Follow the road south through Darkshire, and around a bend toward the west. Just south of the Twilight Grove, turn left on the road and due south into Stranglethorn Vale.

Follow the road south down the entire length of Stranglethorn Vale to Booty Bay, and take the boat on the northwest docks to Ratchet.

Once in Ratchet (don't forget to pick up the flight point!), take the road west toward the Crossroads. Once you can see the Crossroads, you will need to cut off the corner going southwest, and pick up the road going south.

As you approach Camp Taurajo, you will see a road turning west into the camp. Skirt well north of Camp T and pick up the road west into Mulgore on the other side.

Keep the pond at your left shoulder and follow it around until you pick up the road again going north. This will take you safely into the Darkmoon Faire grounds.

Differences between Retail and ClassicIn Retail, all these carnies are still employed by Darkmoon Faire, but have different jobs. Yebb Becquabrach runs the Petting Zoo and gives the Blacksmithing profession quest. Kerri Hicks gives the quest for 250 Grisly Trophies. Rinling runs the Shooting Gallery and offers the profession quests for Engineering, Leatherworking, and Mining. Chronos manages the profession quests for Herbalism, Skinning, and Jewelcrafting, having recently retired from managing the First Aid quests (which leads one to wonder who's handling carnie health care).Spending Darkmoon Faire TicketsBoîte de rangement de SombreluneGelvas Crasseporte

Level 60 Darkmoon TrinketsSuite de Fauves

Carte de Sombrelune : Dragon bleu: Equip: 2% chance on successful spellcast to allow 100% of your Mana regeneration to continue while casting for 15 sec.
If you cast a lot of instant or short-cast spells, such as healers in raids, this is a very useful trinket. Not so useful for DPS classes who primarily use long-cast or channeled spells.

Suite d'Élémentaires

Carte de Sombrelune : Maelström: Chance to strike your melee target with lightning for 200 to 300 Nature damage.
Note this says "melee" damage, so obviously this is best for melee classes. It's considered a BiS for Retribution paladins.

Suite de Portails

Carte de Sombrelune : Néant distordu: Gives the wearer a 10% chance of being able to resurrect with 20% health and mana.
This trinket is primarily good for PvP.

Suite de Seigneurs de guerre

Carte de Sombrelune : Héroïsme: Sometimes heals bearer of 120 to 180 damage when damaging an enemy in melee.
This may seem like a good tank trinket, but the general consensus is that this is a more useful trinket for melee farming or grinding.

Level 70 Darkmoon TrinketsSuite de Bénédictions

Carte de Sombrelune : Croisade: Each time you deal melee or ranged damage to an opponent, you gain 6 attack power for the next 10 sec., stacking up to 20 times. Each time you land a harmful spell on an opponent, you gain 8 spell damage for the next 10 sec., stacking up to 10 times.
This is a Pre-Raid/Phase 1 BiS trinket for Mages and an optional second Pre-Raid/Phase 1 BiS trinket for Retribution Paladins.

Suite de Furies

Carte de Sombrelune : Vengeance: You have a 10% chance when hit by an attack or harmful spell to deal 95 to 115 holy damage to your attacker. (Proc chance: 10%)
This is Pre-Raid/Phase 1 BiS Stamina trinket for Protection Paladins.

Suite de Déraison

Carte de Sombrelune : Folie: Each time you land a killing blow on an enemy that yields experience or honor, you gain the Power of Madness.
This deck works differently for each class. The deck has the possibility of 9 different buffs, but will randomly pick different ones depending on your class. For example, Complexe du martyr can be applied to all classes, but Sociopathe only applies to Paladins, Rogues, Druids, and Warriors. See the description of Carte de Sombrelune : Folie for a full list of possible effects. These random buffs last for 30 seconds, can be applied to a player more than once, and can refresh the timer on buffs if it randomly selects a duplicate. This is considered a second alternative Pre-Raid/Phase 1 BiS Stamina trinket for Protection Paladins; like the Carte de Sombrelune : Croisade, it also has +51 stamina, but a less predictable secondary buff.

Suite d'Orages

Carte de Sombrelune : Courroux: Each time one of your direct damage attacks does not critically strike, you gain 17 critical strike rating and 17 spell critical strike rating for the next 10 sec. This effect is consumed when you deal a critical strike.
This is a strange trinket, and worth reading the comments section when you click on this. On the face of it, the trinket looks good, but running the numbers tells a different story. It only affects crit chance when you don't crit, which is odd. In fact, it gets less effective the better your gear is -- the more you crit, the less chance it has to proc. It may be useful to classes that don't crit that often, but there's a reason this trinket doesn't appear on anyone's BiS list. For most DPS classes, Carte de Sombrelune : Croisade is a much more appealing choice.

Le rejeton de Jubjub

2x Chope de bière sombrefer

Important: Do NOT click on Morja before you start.

Right click on one mug. When the hand starts to glow, set the Chope de bière sombrefer on the ground next to Morja.

Wait until her frog Jubjub hops over to the mug. This may take a while, so be patient.

When he has returned, she will offer a quest.

Take the quest, and turn in the second Chope de bière sombrefer.

This completes the quest, and she will give you Œuf de jubelin. In seven days, it will hatch and you will have your very own Jubling, summoned through Mini-maison de jubelin.

What moment does LVL70 Darkmoon Cards drop start?

Commentaire de Clobbersaurus

Turning in the quest "More Thorium Widgets" still does not reward reputation at 2400/6000 Friendly, as of 8/3/2021, game version 2.5.1 (39603)

Commentaire de Miste07

Can we get an update on the schedule of the locations, please? It's inaccurate right now. It says "August 9Mon - 15Sun - Mulgore, but it was 2Mon-8Sun Terrokar Forest.

Reputation gains from the turn in quests only gives rep to 2250/6000 (friendly) and not 5999/6000(friendly) as stated here.

Commentaire de Azaeluu

What are the dates and locations for 2022 Darkmoon faire?

Commentaire de Scottydub82

Any update on the TBC dates/locations for 2022?

Commentaire de Razali23

In regards to the cut-off point for reputation for the turn ins (Tier 5).

I've seen quite a few different numbers, however I just wanted to point out that in Classic TBC, this cutoff point from the Tier 5 turn-ins is at 2250/6000 into Friendly.

After that the turn ins will no longer give any addtional reputation, although you will still receive tickets.

Commentaire de S1D1S

Kindly update the schedule

Commentaire de Moltarr

For anyone interested, made a simple discord bot to help keep track of the locations and timers of DMF.

> Bot invite link <

It has no commands, it just updates it's name to show the current location (and duration) of the faire OR how many days to wait for the next one.

I recommend adding to it some role, tick it to show separated in the users sidebar and move it all the way up like this.

Hope anyone finds it useful.

Edit: made it based on locations and times of this guide and NA servers, not sure about EU server dates/locations.

Commentaire de FREELOOP

I don't think the setup begins at the first Friday of every month anymore. It is said that it's now synced with retail and begins at the first Sunday of every month. For this month (2022 May) it began at 5/1 (Sun) instead of 5/9 (Mon)

Commentaire de LotusRemulos

Great guide. 5 Stars.

Just need to update the maximum rep rewarded by the tier 1-5 repeatable hand ins. I'm currently stuck at 2050/6000 Friendly after trying all combinations of hand ins.

Bonus points if you can update the DMF schedule too, but as others have commented, we can track this manually easily enough.

Looking forward to the WOTLK DMF guide! Keen on grinding Insane :)
