So, over a few days of doing this series of dailies, I've noticed that the rewards seem somewhat… lacking. I've been tracking all the dailies I've done, and these were no exception. What I did find out after doing a little math may put you off doing this series in favor of others*.

(Please note that I'm writing this from the view of a lv80 character, and will not discuss XP rewards.)

The Troll Patrol set of dailies are started by talking to Commander Kunz, who tells you to head out and do the tasks assigned to you by 4 others. Three are Captains whose dailies vary between a set of three, and the final one, Alchemist Finklestein.

It should be noted that the gold reward at lv80 is a static (and small) 3g18s for EVERY Troll Patroll sub-quest.

The first stop on your patrol is Captain Brandon. He offers you one of three possible dailies, Troll Patrol: Can You Dig It?, Troll Patrol: High Standards, or Troll Patrol: Something for the Pain. Each of these rewards 75 rep with The Argent Crusade.

The second stop will be Captain Rupert, who offers Troll Patrol: Done to Death & Troll Patrol: Throwing Down for 75 rep each, or Troll Patrol: Intestinal Fortitude which rewards a whopping 250 rep.

Third, we have Captain Grondel, offering Troll Patrol: Couldn't Care Less & Troll Patrol: Creature Comforts at 75 rep apiece, and Troll Patrol: Whatdya Want, a Medal? offering a paltry 25 rep.

Fourth and finally, Alchemist Finklestein offers Troll Patrol: The Alchemist's Apprentice, which requires you to run around like an idiot in his lab for 75 rep.

So, if we were to average the rep reward for each stop, it would look like this:

Captain Brandon: 75
Captain Rupert: ~133
Captain Grondel: ~58
Alchemist Finklestein: 75

Added together, this is a mean average of 341 rep, or ~85 rep per daily over 4 dailies, as well as the gold reward total of 12g72s.

But, we haven't figured in the Troll Patrol rewards yet, and assuming you complete the entire patrol before you timer buff wears out, we also need to figure in Congratulations!.

(It shouldn't be a problem to complete these quests within 20 minutes, unless you're on a PvP server, in which case, good luck.)

Troll Patrol adds 250 rep and 12g69s, while Congratulations adds 350 rep and 19g05s.

This brings our total mean average rewards up to 941 rep and 44g46s, or an equated average of ~157 rep and 7g41s per daily over 6 dailies. Even as a best case scenario, you can only get a max of 1075 rep and the aforementioned gold*.

The reality of this series of dailies is, if you're looking to make gold, avoid them at all costs. There are far more lucrative dailies to be run out there. If you're looking to grind Argent Crusade rep, this and Slaves to Saronite are really your only options, unfortunately.

*I didn't include the contents of the Patroller's Pack you get as a reward from Congratulations!, since it's contents can vary in value from a few silver to several gold, or have a value completely based on your server's economy. I leave it up to those reading this to decide if it's worth going after.

Everything in the above post is true, but it makes the assumption that the reader is consistently doing 25 daily quests each day, and wants to get the most gold per day. I think for most of us this isn't the case- We are more concerned with our gold per minute, and we may not do 25 dailies each and every day. Thus, it doesnt matter if its 6 quests or 4, the time involved is what matters.

For, us, Troll Patrol is very good. It takes me about 10 minutes to complete the 4 dailies that require actual work, and my reward is ~ 11G / quest, since only 4 of the 6 quests require any more work than talking to someone. Pretty nice, really.

If you want to do 25 quests every single day, absolutely listen to Kerriane. But if you just want to do some quick dailies for gold until you get bored, these are nice.

Part of a chain of 4 quests - can all be done in 12 minutes if you're level 80.

Awards a total of 49g 46s (including Congratulations quest and selling the vendor item you get most often for 5g)

Is this Daily quest still available? I had some dead thornwood in my bag forever and decided to see what it was for. Capt. Grondel doesn't have a blue ? over him nor can I interact with him.

Update: Silly me, you have to get a quest to get this quest. Troll Patrol will send you to 4 differant captains to do their dailies. See Kerriannes' post above for the specifics. If I had read that more thoroughly I would not be a dunce in this post. Good Luck!

Описание

Да уж, приятного в этом мало, но долг есть долг.

Уже несколько дней мои солдаты отважно сражаются, стоя по колено в холодной воде. Они – храбрые воины, но они все-таки не железные.

Им нужно обсохнуть, согреться, воспрянуть духом. А для этого нужен костер.

Эта часть города вся затоплена, но у мертвых корней колючника есть свойство отталкивать влагу, они всегда остаются сухими.

Собери нам дров для костра, и мы будем очень тебе благодарны.
