The delayed noblegarden is uppon us. Eggs and bunnies. Collect eggs and eat their contents or trade them in for goodies. Sounds simple doesn't it. So why was it one of the most painful events to do?

Most of the items needed for achievements can be bought for chocolates or via drops (the latter being somewhat erratic - I got 3-4 of some items and none of a couple of others ... until just after I'd bought them), so that's not the difficulty. My problem as a mage lies in getting upwards of 250 chocolates (100 for one of the achievements, 100 for the polymorph tome and another 50 for the one item I was missing) when half the server is after the same thing and either camping the spawns or running round like bunnies on speed (using the Egg Rush power). During the day the villages were mobbed, so I'd suggest hunting early in the morning or late at night, or leaving it until later in the week when things are quieter (check the calendar for the end date which overlaps with the start of Children's Week).

Most of the achievements were fairly easy to do. The only ones that proved troublesome were Shake Your Bunny Maker  (as some mods interfere with the targetting, there's a 5-minute cooldown on use, and finding females of some races is challenging), Hard Boiled (which is easy enough to do with a friend if you have a blossoming branch but a bit more challenging if you're solo - after being turned into a rabbit I hearthed to Cenarion Hold in silithus and hopped from there). Not that Getting Dressed for the occasion and Sunday's Finest are nice to get, but they're not part of the Noblegarden meta-achievement.

Now next weekend sees the arrival of Childrens week, most of whose achievements are straightforward though some of the BG-related ones are likely to be a major (if not impossible) challenge ...
