Clear the the middle group on the left side towards the chest on the left side. On one person, Run to all the chests and loot them. You have 2 mins to get all 4 items and combine them. Once the items are combined, go towards the crystal and use the item. Kill Alumeth.

Now fly west towards the Shadow Vault.
http://www.icedpuma.com/quests/vile.png
Pick up the quests: *Vile like fire ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13071') / *Shoot'em up ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13069') / Leave our Mark ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12995')

Kill any Vrykul you see on the way for Blood of the chosen ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13330'). Find Blast Thunderbomb and do *King of the mountain ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13283'). It has to be done on each character, but it is easy and fast to do. Turn it in when you are done.

Now fly towards Northeast Ymirheim
http://www.icedpuma.com/quests/AssaultbyGround.png
and pick up & do: Assault by ground ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13301'). Each character has to pick up the quest, or just share it with the group. Follow the NPC's and kill the mobs that spawn. Turn it in back where you picked up the quest when completed.

Talk to all the miners you can and AOE the aggro ones when they become bothersome. The Angel guys can annoying as they cast and slow you down so avoid them if you can.

Once you finish Slaves to Saronite ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13302') go south towards Mord'rethar
http://www.icedpuma.com/quests/Mordrethar.png
and kill a Pustulant Horror ('http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=31139'). Loot a giant spine on all your characters. Use the Daily Macro or type

Love your work! Thanks for putting the time in to put this together and post it!

Cheers,
S.

[Ellay]

It's very nice, I'm going to work on this and see how well I do Alliance side :)

[Ellay]

I did the Alliance side, it takes a bit with non epic flying - I'm pretty close to having it though, this is definitely were the gold is at though.

[Funkymonkey]

Great thread! Gonna check back on this when im ready for dailys on my flock ^^

[bigp3rm]

Thanks for this.

[Saevio]

With some really clever maths, I calculated the total gold you'd get from doing all this. Didn't double check it, but should be accurate.

The 2 group quests give 22g 20s for completing and 19g 86s for being level 80 when you do it.

The 12 normal quests give 7g 40s for completing and 13g 23s for being level 80 when you do it.

And the quest "Vile Like Fire!" gives 3g 70s for completing and 13g 23s for being level 80.

Total: 348g 61s

[Tizer]

but basically forgetting the first time you complete them, since its not really relevant they should net around 200g per run....which takes? 30 mins?

So for those of us on 5 toons, 1k gold per day...what about the Sunwell Isle Daily quests when we hit 80? Back to normal? so another easy 100g per toon?

Could get quite a nice income for people with 2 groups of 80s, which i plan to have at some point :D

[blbjtb]

tagging an epic thread!

[Dominian]

I will certainly test this out when i hit 80 and THANKS ALOT!!

Vote for either sticky or the wiki!

[blbjtb]

Dumb question what do i need to do to get the quests? is there a specific chain i need to do?

[dRiN]

Such detailed posts are much appreciated! Thanks for the work put in.

[Matt007]

I can't pick up any daylie quest at Origin's Hammer ... is there any Prequests you have to do, which leads away from the single quest you get at the begining? I did nearly every quest in Icecrown and even can't pick up any daylie quest here :(

Thanks


Matt

[zanthor]

Oh great guide, I've been doing quests out there sorta willy nilly and I'm not 80 yet so I've been hammering it for XP and wondering what the cash payouts going to be... it looks like around 350G per toon per day, so 1750G per day without drops/pocket change... oh yes, I see having my epic fliers soon!

[Matt007]

Ok, after hours of doing Quests in Icecrown and searching through WoWHead, i found how to enable the daylies at Origin's Hammer :)

First you have to do all quests in Argent Venguard AND at the Ebon Watcher (nord of the Argent Venguard, but a quest will Lead you there). When done all, you will start this Quest-Chain

http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13139

Which creates a new Zone, where you have at the end in the new Tower a NPC named Warlord Hork Strongbow, where you get the Quest "Origin's Hammer" and voila, you get a new Quest-Chain after ariving at Origin's Hammer :) Hope this helps that one, who can't find it, like me.


Matt

[Ellay]

What dailies does Origin's Hammer open up, I have the dart gun quest where you need to shoot them out of the sky, but stopped there.

[pinotnoir]

Is it worth doing Total Ohmage: The Valley Of Lost Hope? Flying one with plane.

[Zzc2]

It would be if you could leave the damn plane after you kill the required mobs, but you cant and it takes a while to run through the place so I skip it.

[caffiend86]

Worth noting, all these quests give great XP if your not 80 and are often faster and easier to do then many of the regular collection chains. In general they give 20k xp, 30k xp for the group quests also "No Rest for the Wicked" quest you get 12k xp just for killing the elite himself :)

[Stealthy]

I've been running these dailies over the weekend and have a few suggestions...

Firstly a note about the prereq quests - you need to complete all the prereq quests in the Argent Vanguard and the Shadow Vault / Death's Rise.
Argent Vanguard - All quests up to and including The Crusader's Pinnacle ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13157').
Shadow Vault / Death's Rise - All quests up to and including You'll Need a Gryphon ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12814') - progressing through this quest line will open up 5 dailies, 3 in The Shadow Vault and 2 in Death's Rise.
Completing the prereq quests in these two areas unlocks several quest chains aboard Orgrim's Hammer. Progressing through these chains will gradually unlock more dailies until all the dailies mentioned in this guide are available.

I actually run the dailies in a different order - becuase I only have 60% flyer (still saving for me epic one) I wanted the shortest distance to travel between each daily. Have included some notes about the quests where appropraite.
1. Neutralising The Plague
2. Volatility & That's Abominable! ('http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13276') - That's Abominable wasn't mentioned in the guide, but can be done fairly quickly - just kill the hulking abominations and get the guts from them (100% drop rate). Kill 5 and loot one for each toon. Summon your abomination, target a mob in the middle of a pack, send him in, blow up pack. If the packs are too spread out, make him run round and tag a few different mobs - use the 'flatulate' ability for a short knockdown/stun effect - and gather them up. Just make sure you explode him before he dies otherwise the mobs will come after you!
3. Slaves to Saronite
4. King of the Mountain
5. Assault By Ground & Blood Of The Chosen - When you do Assault By Ground, there are 4 points where 3- 4 mobs will spawn and attack the Infrantry and your group. Tagging and killing these mobs will update the Blood Of The Chosen quest as well - at the end of the escort, you should have 14 - 16 of 20 kills. If you run back to the spawn points, the mobs will respawn again and let you get your final kills in. Much faster than wandering the town looking for more mobs. Head back down to the base of the mountain and hand in.
6. Drag & Drop
7. Riding The Wavelength - even if you speak to the goblin to give you your bomber at the same time with all your toons, the bombers will still launch sequentially - so make sure to take your alts off follow before speaking to her, otherwise your team will follow you over the edge. :P *edit* ran it again today and all my toons launched simultaneously. Be aware it can be a bit flakey.
8. Restest Now
9. No Rest for the Wicked
10. Keeping the Alliance Blind - just fly southwest from No Rest for the Wicked over the wall and drop down to the ground. You should be able to shoot down the Skybreaker Recons from here. The fly northwest to The Shadow Vault.
11. Shoot 'Em Up, Vile Like Fire & Leave Our Mark - note Leave Our Mark requires 15 banners planted, which means 3 kills not 2. Also post patch, Shoot 'Em Up will only require 15 kills (down from 20) and the energy used per shot is being reduced, i.e. you'll be able to spam more shots. For Vile Like Fire, the vehicle is the same speed as a 60% (non-epic) flyer, so if you haven't got yor epic flyers yet, don't use the speed boost and you should be fine.
12. From Their Corpes Rise & No Fly Zone - you don't have to mount up on the bone gryphon to kill the Onslaught Gryphon Riders. A good spot is out front of the cathedral, up on one of the higher towers (there are 2 high ones and 2 low ones). You can snag the Gryphon Riders as they fly past. They will either fly to you on the platform (in which case you kill them and use the Ticture on them) or hover at range and throw spears (in which case keep killing them until you have enough corpses on the ground, then jump down and use the Ticture on them).
13. Fly back to The Shadow Vault and hand in Shoot 'Em Up, Vile Like Fire & Leave Our Mark, then fly to Orgrim's hammer and hand the rest in.

Total Number of Dailies done: 17.

Lazy Shaman Protip - if you only have a 60% flyer and your hearth is set to Dalaran, hearth back and speak the NPC who send's you to Orgim's Hammer - you'll fly there at epic flyer speed and you don't have to steer your mount either...win-win!

Cheers,
S.

And the quest "Vile Like Fire!" gives 3g 70s for completing and 13g 23s for being level 80.

Total: 348g 61s
Unfortunately this is not the case - you only get 22g 20s for the group quests and 13g 23s for the solo quests. You don't get the extra gold at level 80...it sucks I know!

For 15 solo quests and 2 group quests you get...

Total: 242G 85S

[Tynk]

it's not ice crown, but I always pop over to grizzly hills, takes about 15 minutes to burn through 7 quests there for about 10g each.
From the Blue Sky Logging camp grab these three
Keep 'Em on Their Heels, Overwhelmed!, Shred the Alliance.
Just run through and heal the Horde, Kill the alliance, Once those three are done I jump one of my characters into a shredder and autorun back to the turn in guy while I grab another shredder, auto run to turn in then grab the last. While grouped each turn in counts for everyone so you are done here.
You can skip Making Repairs, it is a collection quest, but everything is pretty close together.
Then if you have your epic flyers head down to Venture bay, or you can jump on the log ride that is right by the horde camp.
In Venture bay grab Keep Them at Bay, Smoke 'Em Out, Crush Captain Brightwater!
this is also pretty simple, run into the cabin nearest the horde camp, gather all the peons and drop one smoke bomb, run to the lumber mill grab all the peons and drop one smoke bomb, head towards the third ship in the bay (alliance ship) being sure to smoke your last peon as you run by and kill the captain, kill your last couple alliance and your done.

Mount up, fly back to Conquesthold and right outside there is Blackriver Logging Camp with the quest Blackriver Brawl. Grab it, kill 10 alliance and you are 70 g richer for about 15 minutes.

At this point I grab a taxi at ConquestHold and fly back to Ice Crown.
