Midsummer Bonfires is not a quest in and of itself, but actually refers to quests of two other names:

•  [1] Desecrate this Fire!.
•  [1] Honor the Flame.

These quests are available in most zones with Alliance or Horde towns, as appropriate, and some with neutral towns.

See individual quests above for objectives, description, quest texts, and rewards.

Rewards

For completion of all quests, you will be rewarded with the following:

•  [Burning Blossom] x830
• ____ per level, or 1130 34 at level 85

Gains

• ___ XP per level.

These quests do not award reputation with any faction.

Details

All quests are independent; they can be done in any order. Below is a suggested order for time efficiency. Separate steps have been listed for flight points. They have been marked with:.

Though they are included in the rewards tally, the new Cataclysm zones are not included below due to the fact that they can be accessed by stepping through the portals in either Stormwind City or Orgrimmar at their respective earthshrines.
