Status: Working as designed!

Pre-Quests that should be done:
0.1. Take The Argent Tournament from Justicar Mariel Trueheart , to complete it you need to speak with Magister Edien Sunhollow.
0.2. It will give you the quest Mastery Of Melee. In order to complete it you need to mount your faction's stabled mount (Example BE got to mount Stabled Silvermoon's Hawkstrider), then speak with NPC Jeran Lockwood and simply kill (Use Thrust) x5 Melee Targets that are located near the same NPC.
0.3. Take Mastery Of The Charge from Amariel Sunsworn, to complete it you need to speak with Rugan Steelbelly and simply kill (Use Charge) x2 Charge Targets that are located near the same NPC.
0.4. Take Mastery Of The Shield-Breaker from Galathia Brightdawn, to complete it you need to speak with Valis Windchaser and simply kill (Use Shield-Breaker) x2 Range Targets that are located near the same NPC.


1. Go to Magister Edien Sunhollow and take Up To The Challenge.

2. From the same NPC you get A Worthy Weapon.
2.1. In order to complete this quest you need:
2.2.To gather 4x Winter Hyacinth that can be found in Here.
2.3.Then you go to the upper part of the river between Dragonblight and Grizzly Hills.. In the middle of the "lake" you will find some sort of a ritual objects placed in a circle. You need to dismount at the border of the circle and use those 4 Winter Hyacinths in order to summon the NPC to give you Blade of Drak'Mar.
2.4. Finally you turn in the quest and you got your first Aspirant's Seals!

Repeat steps from 2. to 2.4. until you get all 15 seals.

2.5. Tips: A Worthy Weapon will give you 2x Aspirant's Seal. In order to get the complete number of seals faster you may also complete Training In The Field and Learning the rains.

The first quest: To complete the first one you must kill any Icecrown scourge. I suggest to go south of Argent Tournament Grounds to Sindragosa's Fall because it's the closest place. You will get one seal.

The second quest: This quest should be done while raiding Quel'dorei steed/Sunreaver hawkstrider but vehicles system is bugged here so just kill those targets. They are found around AT grounds. You will get 2 seals.

Credits of 2.5. Tips goes to Sasneo228.

2.6. Turn in Up To The Challenge.

3. Take the next quest in the chain which is The Aspirant's Challenge.
3.1. In order to complete this quest you need:

In a few moments nothing will happen, then suddenly you will notice that an unfriendly enemy ( Argent Valiant ) has spawned in front of you. I suggest AoE attacks to aggro him. You can dismount and equip your previous weapon. The lance was only used to spawn the guy with the horse. Kill him, then quest completed.

To be updated. This is my very first guide ever so Im new in those waters. Criticism will help to improve. Hope the guide helps you too. Thanks!

First Congratulations ;D Guide is great and it will help all people who try to get 'Crusader' title. When I worked on it http://www.wowwiki.com was my best friend. In truth it's easy but it's hell long. I will add some things you said u missed because I know the thing.

Aspirant :

Quest A Worthy Weapon will give you 2 [Aspirant's Seal]. You need 15 to complete Up To The Challenge. It is faster if you do other 2 quests :

Training In The Field -To complete this one you must kill any Icecrown scourge. I suggest to go south of Argent Tournament Grounds to Sindragosa's Fall because it's the closest place. You will get one seal.

Learning the rains - This quest should be done while raiding Quel'dorei steed/Sunreaver hawkstrider but vehicles system is bugged here so just kill those targets. They are found around AT grounds. You will get 2 seals.


Valiant :

There are 3 more quests that give 1 seal.

A Valiant's Field Training - Take quest from Kethiel Sunlance or any other master of arms(depends on race). Go to middle-west area of Icecrown named Conflagration and kill 10 Converted Heroes. They can be find in groups or alone kill them in your style ;D.

At The Enemy's Gates -Get it from Aneera Thuron. This is badazz quest because mount is bugged. If you are not strong enough I recommend you to bring a friend. You need to kill Scourge in Court Of Bones in front of Icecrown Citadel. You must kill 10 Boneguard Footmans(37k hp, found in groups), 10 Boneguard Scouts(20k HP , standing alone) and 3 of Boneguard Lieutenants(75k HP, can be found alone tnx god)

Quest The Grand Melee doesn't work because you can't challenge valiants.



After completing The Valiant's Challenge you will get quest A Champon Rises. Just turn it and BooM You have title 'Name of the <Racial Capital>' , Pet Argent Gruntling/Argent Squire(ally) and 10 Champion's Seals.

I did this part for Blood Elf's as EnergieBG started but its preety same for all races. I am Night Elf and when I was doing capitals they were in following order Darnassus/Exodar/Stormwind/Ironforge/Gnomeregan. I think Cities are done in order : Your first and others clockwise from left to right as they are standing in the pavilions. I am not sure.

Thanks and Good Luck : )))

Yes it is copy/pasted with some small differences. Quest links are changed regarding to faction. Hope it helps and if any mistakes, please feel free to post them. Thank you. :)

[The Valiant's Challenge] Seems not to be working at the moment.
Nvm after trying it 4 times (and yes I did it correctly) it suddenly worked.

The fall of black knight is impossible to do. I can't talk to squire Cavin to spawn balck knight.

Posting to follow. I managed to complete this quest on my main after the core update (maybe a week or two ago), but as of yesterday I can't talk to Cavin. I have become champion of my home city (and was able to take the quest) but Cavin simply gives no dialog options - regardless which mount or which lance is used.

Still not working for "The Black Knight's Fall" - you can't talk to squire Calvin (with the correct mount).

The Black Knight's Fall is still bugged

Congratulations for the work ! You made a really good guide and it will deffinately help peoples get their achievments and stuff really easy.
Just a minor mistake that i found :

To do 5.3.2. You must kill 10x Boneguard Footmans 37k hp found in groups, 10x Boneguard Scouts 20k HP standing alone and 3x Boneguard Lieutenants 75k HP can be found alone thank god.

It should be 15xBoneguard Footmans.

Is there some trick to getting kill credit for the Boneguard Commanders? I get credit for maybe 20-30% of the ones I kill. Frustrating as ****.

Ahhh the Argent bloody tourney. The quest at the enemy's gate is so awesome that at any given time and day, you have like 8 morons camping the mobs like crazy. Goodluck trying to kill the lieutenants. Could have easily been fixed by decreasing the spawn time but NOOOOO. this is warmane for you. Just suck it up and wait for 30mins there trying to kill one.
