Let's hope the reward associated with this quest will have a chance to contain some Draenor lunkers inside it, to help reduce the amount of time (and maybe a wee bit of stress) we spend while we sit around hoping for a bite, which could be a great reason for a fishermen (or fisherwomen) to go out and visit Darkmoon Island every month! :)

...and if Blizzard has not planned for this to happen already, then the Wowhead team needs to read this and must pass a message up to the Blizzard team right away! I'm sure there are quite a few players who would absolutely love to see this happen, myself included :)

Comment by MRTF

Is this quest repeatable? I'm assuming it is since it can be bought. Still would like a confirm.

I've made a simple guide video with commentary for this quest if anyone needs help with it, check it out! thanks!

Comment by Vainio

I made a quick visual aid for those who don't want to watch a video or find it themselves.

It's straightforward, the map shows the places to go in numbered order, the surrounding pictures, also numbered, show with arrows where the items are in the world.

Comment by 1482138

I think I turned the quest in and got the 46 gold reward before I clicked in the chest of loot that was there. Now the chest isn't respawning for me and I'm out the 100 tickets. Make sure you grab the chest BEFORE you turn in the popup quest. :(

Comment by Katixx

Do NOT complete step 5 if you are in a group. The first person to click the chest will get the loot and it will not respawn for others in the group. We opened a ticket with a GM for the issue.

Comment by Catoria

And you can't just skip all the notes. I just tried on my second tune to buy the quest.

Comment by myathebee

FYI: Do not complete in a group. Only one person was able to click each clue including the final treasure box so that person was the only one to get the 100 tickets and potions even though we all got credit for completing the quest.

Comment by KamenRiderAce

heres hopeing its like the proffision quests repeatable every month

Comment by 1377379

Be VERY careful when you loot the chest at the end. There is some weird bug. I was doing this alone and at the end there was a alliance paladin(I am horde) about to loot the chest so I waited for him. Seconds after I loot it but it was EMPTY! And then the chest vanished even though I did not click the quest to complete.

If you have ever done the quest in the Mogu'shan Palace where you have to loot the 4 chest it was like that(if someone loots and you go to loot seconds later the chest will be empty and just close, so you have to wait a bit for the quest item to respawn.)

So if you see someone around or have just looted play it sad and wait a minute. I hope this GM will be able to restore this item for me

Comment by Atlantea

Is anyone else having the issue where once you get to the chest, you cannot interact with it? I found the 4 notes in order and am now sitting by the chest which is highlighted but won't allow me to interact with it...I had heard someone else had this issue but didn't hear of a fix. Any thoughts?

Comment by andreipop

I found a workaround for the non-clickable chest bug! It seems that the chest is bugging if you try to open it while in a raid group. On some realms, the chest is not yet bugged. What you can do is join such a realm, agro a small crab near the chest (but don't kill it), leave the group (that will leave you to that realm since you are in combat) and then click the chest! I just did this now and I got my quest and the 100 darkmoon prize tickets.

Comment by jjanchan

I thought I would compile and combine some data regarding this quest.

Faded Treasure Map is an item that starts the one-time only quest Silas' Secret Stash. Finishing this quest completely awards Silas' Secret Stash, which contains 100 Darkmoon Prize Ticket and 3 random Darkmoon elixirs.

**At present, there is a glitched such that if this is performed in a group/raid/party, only the first person to loot Silas' Secret Stash at the end of the quest will get the reward, even if others are on the quest. Blizzard is working on the solution, but in the meantime, a ticket should allow the quest to be reset for those who didn't get the reward.**

First off, Faded Treasure Map is purchasable from Galissa Sundew (Fishing Prizes) at the Darkmoon Faire. She is located at (52, 88) - beside the left dock ramp, under the reddish awning.

The currency used for this vendor is Darkmoon Daggermaw, which can be fished up in the waters surrounding Darkmoon Island. Here are some notes about fishing up these fish:

These fish can be caught from open water OR pools
When fished from open water, 1 Darkmoon Daggermaw is caught per cast, unless you fish up a Bloated Thresher (a rare catch), containing gold and 5-10 Darkmoon Daggermaw
Fishing in pools of Shipwreck Debris will yield multiple Darkmoon Daggermaw (typically 2-5), along with 1 Sealed Darkmoon Crate per cast. Pools usually despawn after 1-2 casts.
While the fish are the currency for items sold by Galissa Sundew, they can also be eaten (for mana and health, they do not grant a buff) or cooked into various dishes that grant a versatility buff (the recipes for which are purchased from Galissa!).

All of the the items sold by Galissa Sundew are listed below:

Item	Cost	Notes
Day-Old Darkmoon Doughnut	1 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	+200 Fishing Skill lure. Disappears 1 day after obtained.
Recipe: Lemon Herb Filet	10 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Recipe for food that grants 1% versatility (+1% damage done/-0.5% damage taken, ~130 versatility at level 100). Well fed buff is applied instantly upon eating, and lasts 20 minutes. Food requires 2 Darkmoon Daggermaw per piece to make. Cooking skill of 1 needed to cook.
Darkmoon Firewater	25 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Potion that grants a buff, reducing gathering time, and slightly increasing your character's size. Gathering time for skinning reduced by 1 second, and for herbalism/mining by 1.5 seconds. Lasts 60 minutes. Consumed on use. Stacks with other flasks/elixirs. Note that 1 of these potions is guaranteed to be inside each Sealed Darkmoon Crate, which can be fished up from pools of Shipwreck Debris around Darkmoon Island, or rarely can be fished up from open water. This is by far the more efficient way of obtaining these potions!
Recipe: Sugar-Crusted Fish Feast	25 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Recipe for feast that grants 1% versatility (+1% damage done/-0.5% damage taken, ~130 versatility at level 100) to yourself and all party members that eat it. Well fed buff is applied instantly upon eating, and lasts 20 minutes. Feast requires 5 Darkmoon Daggermaw each to make. Cooking skill of 150 needed to cook.
Seafarer's Slidewhistle	25 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Toy - is added to your collection on use. Using the slidewhistle produces a whistle-blowing animation and a slidewhistle sound. 10 second cooldown.
Blorp's Bubble	50 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Teaches the companion pet Blorp. Cannot battle. Cannot be caged.
Recipe: Fancy Darkmoon Feast	50 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Recipe for feast that grants 1% versatility (+1% damage done/-0.5% damage taken, ~130 versatility at level 100) AND changes characters into fancy dresswear for yourself and all party members that eat it. Well fed buff is applied instantly upon eating, and lasts 20 minutes. Feast requires 10 Darkmoon Daggermaw each to make. Cooking skill of 225 needed to cook.
Translucent Shell	100 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Teaches the battle pet Ghostshell Crab. CAN be caged, and traded, sold or listed on the Auction House.
Faded Treasure Map	100 X Darkmoon Daggermaw	Starts the quest Silas' Secret Stash, which rewards 100 Darkmoon Prize Ticket and 3 random Darkmoon elixirs at its conclusion. Disappears from the vendor after purchased (only 1 can be purchased).

The quest started by Faded Treasure Map is Silas' Secret Stash, and the steps are as below.
I've outlined each step, but have hidden the locations and other details unless moused-over (in case you like puzzles like this and want to discover each on your own!)

Step	Clue	Location
1	If the Darkmoon Treasure you wish to find, then begin your search by using your mind. The next clue that can be found, is on a home you can take out of town.	Raft on the coast at . In the tent is a Barnacle-Covered Bag, which contains Damp Note when looted.
2	You've found my note and an ocean breeze, but the next clue won't come with such ease. To find the spot where your hint hides, go to the place where four cats ride.	In the sandbox with the riding tigers at . Next to one of the tigers is a Suspicious Mound, which contains Faded Note when looted.
3	Another note, another tease, it's enough to make you weak in the knees! You're almost there, look for your next hint, next to a fellow that was negligent.	Beneath the Careless Carnie at (near Krystal the basilisk). Adjacent to the carnie is the Crystallized Note, which contains Dirty Note when looted.
4	To find the next, don't follow the signs, just listen to the very next rhyme. What you seek is a penitent man, the smaller of two, if you can.	Near the entrance portal to the Darkmoon Faire, past the second red arrow sign (Reads "A Majestic, Magical Faire!" when moused over), on the right side of the road at . Beneath the banner of the penitent man (top half dark, bottom half lighter) is the Disturbed Dirt, which contains Moonlit Note when looted.
5	This is it, the final one! We hope you've had a lot of fun! You seek a sail, not white or black, it must be the color of Silas' hat.	At the ship wrecked off the north-west coast of Darkmoon Island at , with the purple sail. On the ocean floor, next to the wreck is the Silas' Secret Stash object which contains Silas' Secret Stash when looted.

A TL;DR version follows with only coordinates:
Clue 1 -
Clue 2 -
Clue 3 -
Clue 4 -
Clue 5 -

Notes about this quest:

Silas' Secret Stash Contains 100 Darkmoon Prize Ticket and 3 random Darkmoon elixirs.
You have to be level 15 to start this quest.
As mentioned above, this quest can only be completed once per character, as Faded Treasure Map disappears from vendor Galissa Sundew after purchased.
The clues have to be completed in specific order or each clue will not appear (i.e. you cannot go straight to the location for clue 5 and loot it!)

Below is a macro that can be used if you have the Addon TomTom, which will mark the locations on the map for you:

/way Darkmoon 42, 91 Clue 1
/way Darkmoon 53, 60 Clue 2
/way Darkmoon 52, 85 Clue 3
/way Darkmoon 51, 30 Clue 4
/way Darkmoon 21, 28 Clue 5

Comment by 1496173

So I guess the chest is still bugged out, since I'm unable to interact with it. Threw a bug report but this is all of the dissapoint. I was really looking forward to the 100 tickets so I can buy the Music Roll: Darkmoon Carousel to add some creep factor to my Garrison.

{Edit}

It seems I was able to interact with the chest, all I did was sit by there for a bit while multitasking trying to look for a different sever to group in and lurk around here and the forums for other attempts to work around the bug. That, or it's on a secret lootable timer.

Comment by 1106042

46g is a bit stingy on rewards considering int he same amoutn of time it takes to get to darkmoon fair, collect 100 of these fish and then hand them in. you could have made 46g 10 times over...not the greatest way to promote fishing as a profession if you ask me. why blizzard is so stingy on quest rewards i do not know. Especially when they give us garrisons and followers to go and get us free gold while we scratch our butts.

Sounds like a fun quest though..just don't think its worht it at 46g rewards.

Edit : sorry, i missed the part about 100 darkmoon tickets.

that makes this worht it. :) hope it is repeatable monthly.

Comment by SherriaRH

I had a friend of mine invite me to party on Stormreaver-US and i was able to loot the chest with no problems..Tried doing the lfg with raid group as suggested in other comments and was one shotting the crabs to try to be in combat and leave group..being in a party worked fine.

Comment by Taav

The once bugged chest is now fixed. The chest now gives up the loot!

Comment by Bodomi

Made a 2 minute visual guide that quickly shows the locations.

Comment by Strokelock

Here's the TomTom waypoints so you don't see them backwards starting at the last one:

/way 21.50, 29.18 5 Secret Chest under Water
/way 52.06, 30.40 4 Disturbed Dirt Banner's Feet
/way 52.44, 84.97 3 At Krystal The Basilisk
/way 53.22, 60.68 2 Pile in Sand Box
/way 42.05, 91.64 1 A bag inside the Tent

*If you have TomTom set to Go to the Closest Way Point, it might seem out of order - but it's not.
1st clue from quest giver is correct. BUT, if you have Closest Waypoint set up, it will point you to the Crystal Basilisk instead of the Sandbox. Just read the note under your waypoint which will have a 1,2,3.. etc. followed by where it is, i.e., Sandbox. Also, as of this edit, Still rocking those 100 Tickets!

Comment by 1492762

Was able to loot the chest by myself on Oceanic Frostmourne just now.

Comment by lordlight

/script print(IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(38934))

Run this script to see if your toon has completed the quest already.

Comment by Buddy123

I think they fixed it, I just did the final 5th clue, got my loot from the chest, completed the quest with no problem

Comment by BMHunterMain

Okay, this can apparently be done once per-event, as in once a month on every toon? I assumed I could do it only once ever, but the Darkmoon Faire guide on here says otherwise. I assume a lot of other people have also missed out on 100 easy tickets by making this same mistake (unless the guide is wrong). *** Update: Apparently the guide was/is inaccurate, this can only be done once per toon ever, not once per toon every month.

I'd show a pic but they are never accepted. Under the banner right side facing it GL!

Comment by Shadowwolf1993

i noticed a lot of ppl talking about doing the last part in a group or raid. Why? i did the entire chain solo. Never got aggro one time. Therefore i didnt have the issue of not being able to loot the crate.

Comment by Shisoulol

I am so thankful for Wowhead right now. I foolishly decided that I would try to do this quest without any sort of help, in an effort to re-experience the difficulty of some quests in Vanilla.

After finding the first clue took me nearly 35 minutes (including my first aborted attempt). I finally realized that the first clue had lied to me by saying that Clue #2 was "on" something, rather than "in" the tent on the pier. I had double-checked the top of *every* tent, wagon, awning, pavilion, marquis and effing outhouse at the Faire. This made me angry.

The majority of the clues are cryptic, but not outright lies like the first. Still, finding them can be tricky. Even if you know exactly where they are, clicking them isn't always easy.

Turns out spoiling the "fun" by looking up the answer was actually more fun than playing the game. GG Blizz. I hope you're happy, because I feel like I never will be again.

Comment by Taraezor

Finding the Fourth Clue

A real doozy. See the map above? It is correct. Go there. Oh... can't see what it is you are looking for, as per comments here at Wowhead?

Some evil genius at Blizzard hehehehe decided that we are used to looking for the typical mounds.

It ain't your typical mound.

Still can't see it? Slow down. take a closer look.

Still can't see it?

Go to Game Menu => System => Graphics => Ground Clutter. Set to low.

Still can't see it?

Must be your medication, or lack thereof.

Getting from the Fourth Clue to the Stash.

Going the long way huh?

Nah. Live dangerously. It's a little gloomy but just go for it!

Watch your step mind you.

May need a parachute.

Oh... you had to corpse walk? Sorry.

Needless to say, it'll leave you breathless!

Less subtle?

You'll need to hold your breath!

Edit: Loving the down votes. You realise that Game Menu => System => Graphics => Ground Clutter is actually helpful for those of us with less than perfect eyesight? And a direct walk + parachute / blink / Slow fall saves tons of time in getting to the final place? Lolz

Comment by Bluemalkin

I'm not going to sit here and take directions from a man who thinks "hat" rhymes with "black."

Comment by vardebedian

Level 15's very low and 100 tickets is a lot! That's not far short of a couple of replica dungeon set items for transmog.

If you've got any lowbie characters you don't normally pay attention to it could be worth doing half an hours fishing to get this quest done. When transmog is account wide it won't matter if they're on some dead end server you forgot about and if you've got some gold there you could just buy the fish!

Comment by Sarthorius

Anyone else noticing that now you can only do it once per event in ANY character lvl 15+? Bought a lot of those fish off the ah and sent 100 to a lot of toons so I could buy some of those transmogs and stuf...

EDIT: It seems, you can do this quest once a day, accros the account but only once per character.

Comment by 1687738

Started a Demon Hunter. Went to Darkmoon Island. Fished 1-283 before getting 100 of these. Took 130 minutes.

Comment by 457435

NO MORE TICKETS!(?)

I just did this, seeking another toy. I have many alts and according the script that checks status, I have not done this quest on this toon.

I fished the 100 fish, got the quest, did the clues in order, found the stash, got Quest completion with 47G 40S, 22,800 XP (I'm level 101) and that's it. I did not get the 100 DMF prize tickets. WTF? I think they may have stealth nerfed this in a weekly patch. Time to search the Warcraft forums and Blue posts/tweets.

Comment by Lazare69

If you are going to put in coordinates for TomTom, put them in REVERSE order. TomTom makes the last one in, the FIRST one to do, also, no commas between first and second numbers So do it like this:

/way Darkmoon 21 28 Clue 5
/way Darkmoon 51 30 Clue 4
/way Darkmoon 52 85 Clue 3
/way Darkmoon 53 60 Clue 2
/way Darkmoon 42 91 Clue 1

Easiest way to put them in game is to use the Paste addon listed on Curse.
Cheers

Comment by MadaVoid

Removed as of patch 7.2.5 ;(

Comment by Etreum

It must have changed on Legion, but it did not give me 100 tickets.

It only gave me 58 Gold 20 Silver as it says on Wowhead.

Worthless waste of time for a Lvl 110.

Comment by Savie

Nm you ahd to open the stuff

Comment by Earlinwe

For people who would like to do the treasure hunt by following clues, instead of map coordinates, but who don't manage to find the places mentionned in the messages, I wrote additionnal clues for each step. That way, you'll hopefully be able to find the objects, without blindly following TomTom coords! All objects are located on the Darkmoon Island: you will never have to leave the zone. For each step, I wrote three additionnal clues. Start with the first one, and if it doesn't help, read the second one, and so on.

First message:
"If the Darkmoon Treasure you wish to find, then begin your search by using your mind.
The next clue that can be found, is on a home you can take out of town."
Clue 1: "Oh, do you think it is a tent? But the tents of Darkmoon Faire are the town... Really, you'll have to find an other way to take your canvas home out of the Faire!

Clue 2: No, portals are not allowed. Besides, you wouldn't want to go too far from the island, and miss all the fun,
would you?

Clue 3: OK, it's a raft. With a tent on it. Go to the southern coast of the island!
_______________________________________________

Second message:
"You've found my note and an ocean breeze, but the next clue won't come with such ease.
To find the spot where your hint hides, go to the place where four cats ride."
Clue 1: "Cats? More like tigers! Four of them!

Clue 2: Don't worry, though, they're Darkmoon tigers: their wooden teeth won't bite you. And you can ride them.

Clue 3: Go to the sandbox :)
_______________________________________________

Third message:
"Another note, another tease, it's enough to make you weak in the knees!
You're almost there, look for your next hint, next to a fellow that was negligent."
Clue 1: It could make some people weak in the knees... But it makes heroes of Azeroth hard as stone!

Clue 2: ...or hard as diamond, in the negligent fellow's case. Taking care of exotic creatures is a risky job.

Clue 3: You'll find the next clue in th zoo, close to the basilisk.
_______________________________________________

Fourth message:
"To find the next, don't follow the signs, just listen to the very next rhyme.
What you seek is a penitent man, the smaller of two, if you can."
Clue 1: Oh, actually, you should follow the signs... When you go to the Faire for the first time, it's safer to stay on the main road.

Clue 2: Don't go too far: you'll meet this holy knight in shiny armour, forever praying the Light for salvation. Probaby because he dared to step out of the path.

Clue 3: At least, that's what I think he did... Being a painting on a banner (close to the start of the path leading to the Faire), he can't answer any of my questions..
_______________________________________________

Fifth message:
"This is it, the final one! We hope you've had a lot of fun!
You seek a sail, not white or black, it must be the color of Silas' hat."
Clue 1: Say what you want about Silas' taste in colour; I happen to think that he looks great in purple!

Clue 2: Many ships sought to reach the island... it did not end well for them.

Clue 3: You're looking for a shipwreck, on the northwestern coast!
_______________________________________________

Congratulations on finding the treasure, I hope you enjoyed the hunt!

Don't hesitate to give me feedback, either about the post itself (it's the first time I post something this long on Wowhead), the difficulty of the added clues, or any English mistakes I may have made (it's not my first language).

Comment by ercarp

To start this quest you need to buy a Faded Treasure Map from Galissa Sundew at the docks in Darkmoon Island (52,88). It costs a 100 Darkmoon Daggermaws which can be fished from around the island or bought from the Auction House.

Comment by Pablocko

CAn you still do this? i did it a couple of times 2 or 3 months ago and then i havent seen the quest map on the vendor :O

Comment by Cr00xY

Odd enough this quest does NOT provide any reputation with DMF once completed.

Comment by onelotus

So the game took 100 fish but didn't give me the quest or tell me I already completed it, this would be extremely useful given the game tells me just about every other quest i've done

Comment by Xemnuz

If someone did this without help: you're borderline insane

Comment by Itfiggures

I use this quest to get 10x Darkmoon Top Hats for levelling alts. The quest rewards 100 DMF Tokens = 10 top Hats. The hats save you going back to the faire each time to gett the Whee Carousel buff.

I use my main to fish the 100 Darkmoon Daggermaw needed for the Faded Treasure Map, when fishing I use a fishing pole and add a Day Old Darkmoon Doughnut to improve chances of catching Bloated Thresher (can contain up to 10 Daggermaw). I don't fish nodes as travel time is hardly worth it. The pole and the donut can be bought right at the dock there on Darkmoon Island.

My hot tip is, after collecting the 3rd clue (from the negligent guy) take the portal from the end of the pier rather than running all the way back up to the entrance to get the 4th clue under the banner, it is a real time saver.

Buyer beware, the hats disappear from your inventory when the faire closes!

In shadowlands pre-patch to level toons to 50 I am running with +166%xp from level 20 (as warmode req) when levelling in spires of Arak through Chromie.

Rested xp +100% (Create multiple toons and leave them in a rested area (inn) before starting to level them)
2016 Celebration buff +16% (Only works during the celebration)
Darkmoon Hat or Whee buff +10%
Draught of the Ten Lands pot +10% (buy on main and send to alt)
Spires of Arak Tavern Outpost buff +20%
Warmode ON buff +10%

It is a bit of set up but wow, the levels just melt in front of your eyes!

Full heirlooms help as they slow down the rate you burn through your rested xp.

Quest is bugged if you're an Evoker, the automatic turn in popup won't appear, so just relog and the "(click to complete quest)" should appear in the Quest Log next to it.

Comment by NamemeSomething

With Darkmoon Prize Ticket being transferrable between characters now and this quest having no level requirement, you should complete this on every character before grinding dailies for tickets.

Comment by avatarofshadow

I don't know when this changed, but I just did it today, and instead of getting an item at the end, it flagged the quest as complete and I had to click on the quest itself, and THEN the item showed up. i just spent 10 minutes wondering why the quest wasn't over before I noticed this, so I hope this comment helps someone else not have to do that someday.

Comment by Kimaell

If you finished the quest and got nothing don't lose heart, look at your quest log, click the quest and Track it again, than click on it and complete it and the crate is in your bags.

Comment by xHascox

The quest now requires level 15 to complete, so this has been my process after running out of toons:

0. Make sure you have enough Darkmoon Daggermaw's in your Warband Bank
1. Create an Earthen
2. Skip most of the intro by walking through all the doors (1 door can't be opened by yourself and needs to be opened by someone else, but usually enough people are around to make it faster to wait for the door than to do the intro, still can take a few minutes)
3. Go into WotLK Chromie Time
4. Set your Hearthstone in the Trade District for Alliance/near Chromie for Horde
5. Go into Northrend Dalaran
6. Use this method to reach level 15 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-pPVndAAy4&t=2s (About 2 mins per level)
7. Use Hearthstone to go back to Stormwind/Orgrimmar
8. Take the quest and teleport from the Darkmoon Faire NPC in your city
9. Complete the quest and start Silas' Secret Stash (Having enough Darkmoon Daggermaw in your Warband makes it take directly from your Warband Bank, no need to carry them)
10. Between Clue 3 and 4 use the Teleporter near the docks to go out and back into the Darkmoon Faire
11. Complete quest
12. Transfer currency
13. Delete character (optional, I've been running out of character slots)
14. Repeat

Whole process takes me about 15 minutes
At the end you'll have 105 Tickets

Comment by Cioco

I've been doing this quest on my alts, for the rewards, and on the last 3 characters I forgot to transfer the 100 Darkmoon Daggermaw requires to buy the items starting the quest.
For some reason I was still able to start the quest. Hmm. Could it be a bug?
It seems it takes automatically from the Wrarband Bank when getting the quest item.
