Darkmoon Cards

From WoWWiki

Darkmoon Cards are cards that can be collected and compiled into a Deck, which can then be turned in to the Darkmoon Faire for the reward of an item and Darkmoon Faire reputation. Higher-level decks, which are of most interest to players, award an epic trinket. Lower-level decks award a lower level uncommon or rare item, and a more modest amount of reputation. Neither the individual cards nor the decks are bind on pickup, and a character of any level can create a deck, though the reward will have level requirements.

Higher-level Decks

Each higher-level deck consists of an Ace and seven sequentially numbered cards, from two to eight. As of Patch 3.0.2, which added inscription, all of these cards may be created by scribes. In fact, the cards for level 80 decks may only be obtained this way. For level 60 and 70 decks, the cards numbered 2-4 may also drop from mobs outside instances and cards numbered 5-8 drop from elite mobs inside instances. The Aces for the level 70 decks can drop from any boss from a level 70 or Heroic instance, while the Aces for the level 60 decks drop from specific bosses:

• [Ace of Warlords] - King Gordok, Dire Maul North
• [Ace of Beasts] - The Beast, Upper Blackrock Spire
• [Ace of Portals] - Darkmaster Gandling, Scholomance
• [Ace of Elementals] - Various elemental Bosses: Lord Incendius, BRD; Hydrospawn, Dire Maul East; The Windreaver, Silithus; Baron Charr, Un'Goro Crater; Princess Tempestria, Winterspring; Avalancion, Azshara (Last four only present during Elemental Invasions)

Once a deck is assembled, it offers a quest to turn the deck in to  Professor Thaddeus Paleo at the Darkmoon Faire for an epic trinket reward (refer to the table below) and 350 Darkmoon Faire reputation. This may only be done at times when the Darkmoon Faire is running.
