Vibrant Plumes

Additional requirements to obtain this quest:
A person's imagination is an incredible thing. It can make the smallest hill seem like the largest mountain. It can make the most innocuous shadow appear cast by a horrible nightmare!

We at the Darkmoon Faire let our visitor's imaginations blossom! But to help stretch their imaginations... sometimes we have to get tricky.

I need vibrant plumes for one of my attractions. You can get them from the birds of the more dangerous areas of Azeroth. Bring me the plumes and many tickets will be yours!

Best place I have found to get the Vibrant Plumes is northern Feralas in the ravenwind ruins off the Bloodfury Harpy, Roguefeather, Windcallers and Slayers. Farmed about 20 in an hour

Question: Is this a repeatable quest? Like those blue questionmark type quests?

With the recent reputation buff, you'll get 250 rep per turnin, limiting you to 11 turnins, no matter what level you turn them in.

Another great place to farm plumes is the harpies in Thousand Needles. I spent about an hour in the cave and got 3 stacks. OMW back ther now to do it again.

The quest becomes unavailable when you get past 2500/3000 rep (high neutral).

in Ferelas off the Harpies in the ruins. Gathered 8 stacks in 2.5 to 3 hours (plus 2 blues). Had already turned in a few, sold the extras right there at the faire for 75s a stack. :P

The tickets can be obtained at any level. Different level bands get access to different hand-ins based on the mob level of what drops the specific grey.
Only the Amulet and Orb (the 1200 ticket hand in) require you to be lv60

I think the other lower down ticket hand-ins have level requirements

Find a lower level player that has the quest, "Test of Endurance" in Thousand Needles. Go to the Roguefeather Den and have the player with the quest smash the crates to spawn massive waves of Harpies. They can get the quest item as well as several Wool and Silk drops plus some greens. You can get all the Vibrant Plumes that you can hold.

Once he destroys a crate, swarms of Harpies appear for you to kill. Just help keep agro off of the lower level guy and you should be OK. (If lowbies keep dying, their willingness to help you diminishes rapidly however, if they keep getting good loot for their level they will maintain an interest.)

He may have to destroy crates several times, to get enough, but there will be enough drops to keep the lower level player interested in helping you. You can get enough Vibrant Plumes to max out your turn-in for them, and possibly surplus to sell to others who could not get the same help.

Helpful looting hint: you may want to move around because if the Harpy corpses pile up around a single location it makes looting them harder.

Happy Farming

The reason for the lvl60 on the quest is that it needs to be to be viewable as a ! or ? for lvl60's otherwise you would have to talk to all and see which ones that actually have the quests.

Anyone knows how many plums you can turn in, before the quest gets unavailable ?

I think that its unfair that there isnt something to trade with in all the professions.. My best Character has herb and alchemy.. And you cant make anything you can trade for tickets.. Its unfair.. -)

I used my frost mage to farm these off the sky shadows in deadwind pass. The mobs are lvl 55-56 and you might have to beat the bots (which you'll learn how to do after a while), but the plumes have a 33% drop chance and you can make several gold each run off the grey bits that drop too (and plenty of buzzard wings/giant eggs if you're after food buffs). It's even close to SW which makes it handy for passing away the time in the AV queue.

Hinterlands the grphon type birds drops them, I got them while doing another quest so I don't question how long it took me, but I got about 6 throughout the time I was killing other stuff.
