Well the spring festival is here and love is in the air and a load of drunk Hobbit'sare falling off a fence and people are waking up with nasty hangovers all over Middle Earth.

Now with the spring festival there are a few old favorite festival quests and some that are only for the spring festival. So lets start chatting about the old favorites that seem to be in every festival first.

Well the dance leaders are back these dances start every twenty minutes and once you get the quest off the dance leader you cant leave the dance area as you will fail the quest. There are four different Dance leaders to be found in four different areas.


The Dwarf Dance leader can be found in Thorins Hall enter the hall go past the statute then turn left. There should be a set of steps leading down go down these and carry on till you see an entrance on you right this is the dwarf beer hall the Dance leader is just by the bar.


The Elf Dance Master can be found at Duillond just north of Celondim she is just south of where the stables are.


The Man Dance Leader can be found at the Bree Festival Fields. These are just north of Bree and to the right. There easy to find as they are on the map.


The Hobbit Dance Leader can be found at the Party Tree its in Hobbiton and is just up the hill its easy to find.

Now when you get the quest the and the dance starts you need to follow the dance leader by doing the same dance moves. Its easier if you step up the dances to binds because if you make a wrong move you need to wait another twenty minutes.

The party tree is also home to the Inn League Member quest.


Now if you have never done this quests before you should make sure you do it first. Its great fun and gives you an idea of what to expect when you go on to do the next quests. Basically You get drunk and go on a pub crawl around the Shire and you have a set time limit to do it in.


Now the trick is not to drink the porters as they take ages to down. Your best off drinking the ales and ciders but each different drink takes different amounts of time to drink. You can do this quest with out a horse but it will be tight on time.

Now we can move on to the new Spring Quests. You need to head to Brockenborings there is a big statue of a hobbit that you need to head and there you should see this guy.


He gives you a quest to go gather Clover from the green fields so that they can brew more Bullroarer's Brew


After you have collected all the clover you then need to take it to the Golden Perch in Stock. Where the land lord will brew up some Bullroarer's Brew for you. You then need to take it back to Sigismond North-Took you then need to place the beer on the stones around the statue.


After that you then need to go do the Bullroarer's Challenge. This involves drinking a pint of Bullroarer's Brew and running across a fence and making it to the other end with out falling off.




After you have done this you have a choice of cosmetic items for either your house or your character. The choices are a Clover patch for outside your house a beer keg for inside a beer mug for your character or a spring hat with a four leaf clove in it. This quest is repeatable so if you want to get all the items you can.

Now you can do the quest again if you want this time you have to it faster but it is well worth it as you get the Inn league Keg. Now don't worry if you don't do it first time off you can wait for a few seconds and give it another try. Now the this keg is fantastic you can stick it in your house or Kinship house and when you use it you take a drink of brandy after about five drinks you pass out
and you wake up in some ramdom place.


The places it can warp you to are,The basement of the Forsaken Inn, The arena in Ost Forod, The boar fountain in Bree, The cat ladys house, Under Trestlebridge, On Giants Needle!, In Rushock Bog, In the Shire at the pig farm

The other new quest is in Bree near the Bree Boar Fountain.


This chap has the hots for some lady but is far to shy to go talk to her he wants you to go and gather some flowers for him. These flowers grow near the stone circles outside of Bree, Micheal Delving and Celodim.

The Stone Circle is just out side the West Gate of Bree

The Stone Circle is just North of Micheal Delving towards Little Delving

The Stone Circle is just out side of Celodim

After you have collected all the flowers you need to head back to Bree to give the flowers back to Avery Crabapple. He then tells you to go to Pony and chat to Barliman Butterbur to find out where the lady lives. You then need to go towards the Scholars Stairs and find a vase to put the flowers in.


You then need to head back to Avery Crabapple and he tells you that the lady does not own cats but she does live near there. He ask you to get the flowers back and talk to the cat lady's neighbors to find the right lady.


After you talk to this lady you find out she also has been thinking of Avery Crabapple and sent him some sweets but she must of sent them to the wrong place as well. So you now need to go to the alley behind Avery Crabapple to go pick up the sweets.


When you go back to Avery Crabapple he tells you that he is going off to talk to his lady friend but he tells you that his friend Gredlan Mugwort has come up with an idea of helping out other people send flowers and gifts to the people they like. You now have a hour to gather as many flowers as possible that you can then trade for gifts.

Now if your having problems with the drunk effects there is a trick to get rid of them. But I think if your doing this your kinds cheating your self out of how these quest should be completed. To disable the effect you need to go to advance graphics and go to post processing and un-check post processing. Any way I hope you have found this guide useful and I'm sorry its late was going to get it done yesterday but got a bad cold.

Edit: The guide to Collecting Flowers.

Right to get the boxes you first of all need to collect the flowers now these can be a right pain to find if your not sure where to look for them. If you follow this guide you should be able to collect at least 2 stacks of each flower type from each zone.

So let us start with the Bree Flowers the first step is do not do this on your horse you will wast time it is far faster to do this on foot. The next step is set your self to auto run and keep hitting the [Delete] button on your keyboard this will high lighten any items that can be harvested like Patch of Flowers.

You need to head for the stone circle out side of bree again and start running towards dog wood farm remember to gather any flower patches you can come across. When you get to dog wood farm you are going to want to circle it and try and keep in the zone I have marked.


And remember to keep hitting the [Delete] button. You are going to want to do this for about 20 minutes. Then you should head back to Bree and buy a quick travel horse to the Shire.

Again you are going to want to head to the stone circle but this time head towards Sadersons Farm. Again your are going to want to circle the area I have marked for about 20 minutes.


When your 20 minutes is up your going to want to get a fast travel horse to Celodim. Again head towards the stone circle always remember hit the [Delete] button. You are then going to want to head to the ruins in the hills just above Celondim and start to circle the area I have shown you.


You should have about 20 minutes give or take. By the end of this you should have 50 of each type of flower.

Didn't they disable this on the US servers?

@jungleralph not sure mate but Q was saying that she was doing festival quests last night.

They temporarily disabled the tavern league keg advanced quest for some reason. The note on the site says that it will be back in a future patch and they will extend the festival an extra week.
