Run, Leap, and Spread Cheer—the Darkspear Dash is Here!
Find the Festivities and Follow the Rainbow
Accepting the quest "Doing the Dash" from a Holiday Enthusiast in any capital city will lead you to festivities and straight into the splash, sparkle, and booming beach party on the tropical shores of the Echo Isles.

From the Echo Isles, it’s full speed ahead through Durotar, Western Plaguelands, Eastern Plaguelands, Eversong Woods, and Silvermoon City as rainbow-revelers race across continents in a burst of color and chaos, ending in an extravagant pool party within the city’s grand fountain.
Passing each gate has the possibility of granting the “Ready to Roll” buff to fleet-footed runners, allowing them to leap into the air and help increase the movement speed of nearby allies.
Along the way, players can and should drink from the Horn of Mojo at water stations to become Hydrated (and faster on their feet).
A Burst of Brilliant Rewards
Completing the “Darkspear Dash” quest rewards the new Troll Scroll of Rainbow Roll toy, allowing you to leap through the air in colorful style. You’ll be a racing rainbow as you roll like a troll with this toy!
You’ll also get a 24-Hour buff that grants a 30% increase to outdoor movement speed and a colorful rainbow that trails behind you, and the “Darkspear Dasher” temporary title to let everyone know that you ran with the rainbow during the Darkspear Dash.
Colorful new items are available during the dashing festivities, and Naz'do and Taz'do also sell temporary celebration items for 10 gold each. Bonus: Many rainbow-themed toys will have their cooldowns greatly reduced during the Darkspear Dash.
