he Shattered Sun Offensive, a new faction whose goal is to retake the Isle of Quel'danas from the forces of Kael'Thas, needs your help - luckily, the abundance of interesting and profitable daily quests gives you plenty of incentive to aid their cause. At higher reputation levels, there are also many useful and powerful rewards purchasable from the quartermaster.

The daily quests are focused on the Isle of Quel'danas itself, but there are many quests that take place in Outland as well. Not all the quests are available from the onset, as they are gradually unlocked by the each successive phase of your realm's Sunwell offensive. At phase 4, the final phase, the maximum number of quests are available.

The beginning quests that lead you to the Isle of Quel'Danas are found in Shattrath City. They take you to Azeroth (Ironforge for Alliance and Silvermoon City for Horde) where the flightmasters can send you directly to the Isle. You'll arrive in the staging area of Sun's Reach, near a boat that is a part of the invasion. From there, head out and look for questgivers in the surrounding area. For more details on the Shattered Sun Offensive, refer to the Fury of the Sunwell patch details and WoWWiki*.

hese quests are gradually unlocked as your realm progresses through the various phases of the Shattered Sun Offensive. You can ask certain NPCs for updates on your realm's progress.

Erratic Behavior (subsequently Further Conversions)
Your quest objective is Erratic Sentries, which roam the northeast section of the Isle. After you have killed them, use the provided Attuned Crystal Cores on the disabled sentries. This will reactive the Arcane Sentries to turn them into friendly units. The sentries are mingled with the Wretched that are the objectives for another daily quest (The Sanctum Wards), so it is efficient to do both the quests simultaneously.

The Sanctum Wards (subsequently Arm the Wards!)
Kill Wretched Devourers and Fiends for a chance to obtain Mana Remnants. Once you have enough, return to the questgiver and use the Mana Remnants near the red floating crystals outside the buildings. You can find plenty of Wretched all along the shore, sometimes sleeping next to trees. Mana users may wish to focus on the Fiends, as the Devourers drain mana with one of their attacks. It is a good idea to do this quest at the same time as Erratic Behavior above.

Distraction at the Dead Scar (subsequently The Air Strikes Must Continue)
This is a bombing run quest similar to others in the game such as those for Ogri'la and the Sha'tari Skyguard. Place the provided Arcane Charges on your action bar for easy access. To start your run, talk to one of the NPCs next to the flightmaster where you originally arrived and ask him to send you out. Once you're in the air, you need to wait until your dragonhawk is over the Dead Scar region. Click on the Arcane Charges and target the monsters below in the targeting circle, and continue until you have bombed the requisite number of targets. The Wrath Enforcers are the smallest and most numerous targets, and you can often hit several with one bomb. The Eredar Sorcerers can be seen on various elevated platforms casting spells, and also take one well-placed bomb to dispatch. The Pit Lords are the biggest and least numerous targets, but require multiple hits to take down. If you didn't get all the targets in one run, don't worry - you can repeat the bombing run until you complete the objectives. This quest can be done in a group to make it easier, but make sure that everyone embarks on their bombing run at approximately the same time.

Know Your Ley Lines
There are three locations where you need to use the provided Astromancer's Crystal. Locating the specific sites to use the crystal is initially tricky, but once learned the quest becomes trivial to repeat. Since the process of taking the reading is just slowed and not completely interrupted by enemy attacks, you can even take the reading while being attacked if you are willing to take the extra time and damage. This quest also rewards a single-use scroll that teleports you to Shattrath City, which is handy since it is on a separate cooldown from your hearthstone.

The Battle for the Sun's Reach Armory (subsequently The Battle Must Go On)
Kill demons in Dawning Square, in the immediate vicinity of the large portal, and plant your Shattered Sun Banner on the corpse of the Emissary of Hate. You don't have to be the player who actually killed the Emissary in order to plant the banner. The portal itself is one of the objectives for Know Your Ley Lines.

Intercept the Reinforcements (subsequently Keeping the Enemy at Bay)
This quest combines a bombing run with a kill objective after landing. Talk to the same NPC by the flightmaster that sends you on the other bombing run quest (Distraction at the Dead Scar) and ask to be sent to dispatch the reinforcements. In flight, you need to use the provided Flaming Oil to destroy the enemy sails on the three boats. Place the Flaming Oil on your action bar for easy access. Once you land, your next objective is to slay Dawnblade Reservists. The Reservists can be found on each of the three boats, including right where you land. If the boat you are on is crowded, you can try swimming to one of the others.

Taking the Harbor (subsequently Crush the Dawnblade)
Once this quest is available, you finally have a purpose to killing those annoying Dawnblade that the Isle of Quel'Danas is crawling with. Your objectives are Summoners, Blood Knights, and Marksmen. Marksmen are the easiest to find, including around the starting boat used for the invasion. Summoners are found in Dawnstar Village, and have an imp which is annoying but has low hit points and is easy to kill. Blood Knights can be found patrolling Dawnstar Village and the areas around the Sun's Reach buildings.

Making Ready (subsequently Don't Stop Now)
This quest takes you to Greengill Coast, the eastern shore of the Isle, to kill Darkspine naga. Hunt the Darkspine Myrmidons, who have a chance to drop the Darkspine Chest Keys which unlock the chests scattered throughout the coast. The chests contain the Darkspine Iron Ore which are the objectives of the quest. To check how many keys you have, open your key ring.

Open for Business
Mar'nah at the Sun's Reach Harbor wants you to gather Bloodberries, which are scattered throughout the Isle. This simple quest is well-suited to be done on the side as you complete other daily quests.

A Charitable Donation (subsequently Your Continued Support)
This daily quest is unusual in that it asks you for gold instead of rewarding gold - and in return, you gain a chunk of reputation with the Shattered Sun Offensive. Simply hand over the gold donation to complete the quest. This quest is no longer available at Exalted reputation.

A Magnanimous Benefactor
In exchange for the modest donation of 1000 gold, Anchorite Kairthos will grant your character the title "Of the Shattered Sun." This quest is only offered at Exalted reputation.

ome of the Outland quests for the Shattered Sun Offensive grant Shattered Sun Supplies as an additional reward. These contain a random uncommon item and also have a small chance to contain a Badge of Justice as well. If you're limited on time, and after Badges of Justice, you might want to focus on these quests first.

Gaining the Advantage
This daily quest is only available to characters with gathering tradeskills (herbalism/skinning/mining). Emissary Mordin in Shattrath City wants Nether Residue, which has a chance to drop from performing these gathering tradeskills in Outland.

Ata'mal Armaments (Shadowmoon Valley)
Smith Hauthaa in the Isle of Quel'Danas offers this daily quest, which actually takes place in Outland. Head over to the Ata'mal Terrace in eastern Shadowmoon Valley, then land on the terrace and kill the fel orcs in the area for their drops, Ata'mal armaments. Watch out for the elite Shadowsworn Drakonid who patrol the area. Return with the armaments to Smith Hauthaa and cleanse them on her anvil to complete the quest.

Discovering Your Roots (subsequently Rediscovering Your Roots) (Terokkar Forest)
Mar'nah at the Sun's Reach Harbor asks you to travel to Razorthorn Rise, northeast of Shattrath City, and collect Razorthorn Roots. First, kill the Razorthorn Flayers until one drops a Razorthorn Flayer Gland. Next use the gland on a Razorthorn Ravager. The Ravager will now be your pet, with its own special action bar, and will be able to find roots with an ability on its action bar. If you're doing this in a group, only one member needs the Ravager, as party members can pick up the roots that it uncovers. This quest gives Shattered Sun Supplies as an additional reward.

The Multiphase Survey (Nagrand)
Harbinger Haronem in Shattrath City asks you to take readings in Nagrand while wearing the provided Muliphase Spectrographic Goggles. Head to Oshu'gun in southwest Nagrand and look for glowing spheres of light on the ground. You must be wearing the goggles to see them - when you get close to one, simply use the goggles to take a reading.

Intercepting the Mana Cells (subsequently Maintaining the Sunwell Portal) (Blade's Edge Mountains)
Exarch Nasuun in Shattrath wants you to go to Bash'ir Landing, atop the northwestern Blade's Edge Mountains, and obtain Smuggled Mana Cells from the ethereal there. Kill the ethereals in the area until a Bash'ir Phasing Device drops. Use that device and your character will enter a phased state. You are no longer visible to the ethereals, but now you'll have to fight off the Phase Wyrms who linger near the mana cells. Once you've collected all the cells you need, right-click on the buff to return to the normal world. You may wish to fly into the air on your flying mount before doing this to avoid finding yourself in a pack of ethereal upon returning. This quest gives Shattered Sun Supplies as an additional reward.

Sunfury Attack Plans (Netherstorm)
Lord Torvos in Shattrath wants you to obtain the Sunfury Attack Plans. They have a chance to drop from any Sunfury blood elf in Netherstorm. Look for them near any of the Manaforges, as well as other locations throughout Netherstorm. This quest gives Shattered Sun Supplies as an additional reward.

Blast the Gateway (Hellfire Peninsula)
Magister Seyla at the Throne of Kil'jaeden in Hellfire Peninsula offers you this quest and Blood for Blood (below). Immediately use the Sizzling Embers in your inventory upon taking this quest. This will create a non-combat fire pet, a Living Flare. Then, attack Incandescent Fel Sparks, the fire elementals in the area. If your Flare is in the vicinity when a Spark dies, regardless of whether you originally attacked it or not, it will appear to "power up" and grow in size. Thus, multiple people can do this quest together even if none are grouped and even if they are of different factions. If you get on a flying mount, don't fly too high or far away from your pet or it will despawn and you'll have to start over. Once your Living Flare is fully powered up to become an Unstable Living Flare, return to the green gateway right next to where you got the quest. Your Flare will roll into the portal at the center and detonate it. This quest gives Shattered Sun Supplies as an additional reward.

Blood for Blood (Hellfire Peninsula)
Magister Seyla at the Throne of Kil'jaeden in Hellfire Peninsula offers you this quest and Blast the Gateway (above). Kill Wrath Heralds to obtain Demonic Blood, then use the Fel Siphon on Emaciated Felbloods to weaken them. Once weakened, defeat the Felbloods to complete the quest. You will need one Demonic Blood for each use of the Fel Siphon.
