Faire Daily Quests

• The boxed winnings are mailable soulbound again
• now that Gilneas has been grafted onto Elune you can have 22 toons in one realm.
• yes, that means all 11 22 toons can concentrate their prize tickets on a single toon as long as they leave the boxes unopened
• that's 55 110 tickets/day
• Heirloom items can be mailed from Gilneas to Elune…
• what this means is that you can have faire alts in gilneas and build up enough tickets faster at about 30 per faire per faire alt. it means each alt can buy the recipe for an heirloom item in about 6 months (ifs).

• Whack A Gnoll
• Controls
• left hand on the SDFE keys
• right hand on the mouse to click the swing key
• I work looking down at a 45 degree angle
• if you didn't see the pop up steam you can't get there in time, so don't waste time trying
• whack your knoll and turn back toward the center
• use a combination of straif and forward to run diagonally to streaming targets
• usually takes me two tokens to make 30
• Humanoid Cannonball
• before asking to be launched get vertical so you're looking straight down, if you wait until you're loaded you can over rotate and look back
• enjoy the view
• the release point is the the path before now the edge of the boardwalk
• it usually takes me two tries, I almost never hit a bulls eye
• He Shoots He Scores
• They changed the speed of the guns. I'm now limited to double taps
• Quick shots are worth two hits (Thanks DJT)
• the key to making 25 on a single token is triple tapping
• pick a target to "come back" to - I use the center target
• shoot the lighted target
• when it goes dark shift to your "come back target"
• shoot - the idea is to have the round in the air when the next target lights, you have a 1 in 3 chance of being right
• if right shoot once twice more for a double triple
• if wrong shift to the lit target and double tap it
• shift back to the "come back" target and repeat
• I usually need two tokens
• Steam Tonk Me
• Controls
• Drive with the left hand on SDFE keys
• mouse to click the fire button
• ignore the boost button
• be unpredictable - if you don't know what you're doing even the wise can't plan against you
• loops are good
• line up on a target and shoot without stopping
• as Sun Tzu said What the hell is he doing?
• we so need to get everyone into the tonk arena and go after the enemy tonks and the blimp
• Target Turtle
• they changed the turtle - now he moves all the time
• however, he comes back to a central location and stops for a very brief rest
• if you are aimed at his brief rest spot and throw before he gets there you have a good chance of a ringer 
• Throw the ring at the center just as the turtle turns around.  You still have the poor aim of the rings to cause you to miss.
• toss to the front of the turtle
• if you get a ring on, throw it to the same spot if the turtle hasn't moved

Firebird Challenge

• dismount before flying - it's distracting to fly up mounted
• you control forward motion, this isn't Cask me a Favor
• I'm still figuring this one out
• The rings don't seem to have a pattern to me
• This isn't Whack a Gnoll, other players can pop your rings
• Three rings appear over the tent behind the quest giver, these rings launch after you launch and can be popped by other players, I'm not sure if the other rings are static or not
• Rings are more like spheres: you can pop them from the side
• The best loop i've been able to figure out is to hit the 4 rings - 3 over the tent, 1 on the tower - then turn left and hit the rings on the beach curling back toward the east
• A solution
• face the quest giver facing north, the boardwalk will be behind you
• request a launch
• when you reach altitude straif left until you line up with the three rings over the tent, you may have to wait for them to launch
• fly through the three rings
• stop, gain altitude (jump) until you are aligned with the ring atop the tower, fly through the ring
• proceed north through two more rings
• turn sharp left and head west, head to the left of the last tree on the ridge
• a ring left of the tree will become visible, fly to it, turn north, hit it
• the ring on the beech is your next target
• after that there are two rings off shore above an island, fly through them
• turn east, fly to the ring on the beech, turn south flying through the ring, follow the beech through another ring
• break west to fly through the two rings close together over another island, you will turn east to fly through them
• continue east to a ring on the beech, fly through it's side and then turn south
• follow the beech and flying through rings until you've made 15
• continue flying through rings until you can safely fly to the quest giver and land
