[[File:Call of the Crusade 2.jpg|thumb|[[Tirion Fordring]] is the leader of the Argent Crusade.]]
   
  +
The '''Argent Crusade''' is an order of holy warriors formed from the union of the Reformed [[Knights of the Silver Hand|Order of the Silver Hand]] and the [[Argent Dawn]]. Led by the paladin [[Tirion Fordring]], the Argent Crusade was a major contributor to the successful [[war against the Lich King|campaign in Northrend]] that toppled the [[Lich King]]. As of the [[Shattering]], they currently work to restore the [[Plaguelands]] of northern [[Lordaeron]].
−
The Coven in some form has been present for well over a year, though only recently officially formed as a collective.
  
−
They are responsible for a large number of sticky threads, and guides regularly linked to by the Blizzard posters, as well as some stock replies used by the Blizzard staff.
  
   
  +
==History==
−
Certain members were also instrumental in [[Xemafir]]'s eventual gift of a [http://forum.anayra.info/xemhamster.jpg hamster desk toy].
  
  +
{{wotlk-section}}
   
  +
The Argent Crusade was formed shortly after the [[Battle for Light's Hope Chapel]], as played out during the [[death knight]] quest {{Quest|The Light of Dawn}}, in which [[Tirion Fordring]] — leader of the reformed Silver Hand — reclaimed, and evidently purified the [[Ashbringer]] during a confrontation with the [[Lich King]]. He assumed a leadership position over the Argent Dawn and united the two factions in order to take the fight against the Lich King to [[Northrend]].
−
The Coven's website can be found at [http://www.bamboobix.info/ www.bamboobix.info] and you can Twitter with us at [http://www.twitter.com/TheBlueCoven www.twitter.com/TheBlueCoven]
  
   
  +
According to the quest {{Quest|Tirion's Help}}, Tirion Fordring handpicked every member in the Argent Crusade in order to avoid infiltration by the [[Cult of the Damned]]. This was presumably to prevent a repeat of the [[Inigo Montoy]] incident, which resulted in [[Naxxramas]] returning to Northrend and [[Kel'Thuzad]] regaining corporeal form.
−
== Coven Members ==
  
   
  +
It should be noted that, despite the new Tabard the Argent Crusade uses, several of their members can be found using the old tabard of the Argent Dawn - this is referring to members of the Argent Crusade faction in Northrend, not the Argent Dawn members who are found in Eastern Kingdoms/Kalimdor. Those who wear the old tabard range from the common infantry to the commanders and senior members of the Crusade. This may mean that the two tabards are interchangable in the Crusade, and the old Argent Dawn tabard may still be in production as part of uniform for the members of the Crusade. Avenger Metz, for example, still uses the Argent Dawn tabard instead of the newer Argent Crusade one.

Amaranthea is an experienced player and has been playing for over 3 years. Always happy to help, although has a great hatred of fools and trolls. Although not afraid to say what he thinks, when it comes to genuine players, he will always try to help. He is also the operator of the Coven's [http://www.bamboobix.info/ website] ([http://www.bamboobix.info/ www.bamboobix.info]).

He can usually be found on the In-Game Customer Support and Technical Support forums.
  
−
While posting, he prefers to skip the pleasantries and get straight to the point.
  
   
  +
Since the Cataclysm, the Argent Crusade has strengthened its presence in the Plaguelands, claiming not only outposts formerly held by the now-defunct Argent Dawn, such as [[Light's Hope Chapel]], but also the former [[Scarlet Crusade]] town of [[Hearthglen]], and the four towers through the Eastern Plaguelands, around which the plague has receded.

−
One of the longer standing "members", his posting has become less frequent due to other commitments.
  
−
He maintains a fairly no-nonsense posting style, occasionally getting drawn into heated disputes, often leading to reprimands from the pandas.
  
−
Primarily found posting in threads where either rose-tinted glasses or falsehoods abound, correcting errors and trying to keep claims in the realm of reality.
  
   
  +
==Reputation==
−
Rumored to have replied first to all threads made during a battlegroup crash, despite posting from a mobile phone.
  
  +
Reputation with the Argent Crusade can be gained by completing the following daily quests.

Reputation can also be gained by purchasing [[Tabard of the Argent Crusade]]{{cost|1|}} from [[Veteran Crusader Aliocha Segard]] in the Argent Vanguard. This tabard, while worn in level 80 dungeons, awards 2 to 30 reputation per mob depending on its difficulty and 300 reputation per boss to your standing with the Argent Crusade.

Known lovingly as "McMeal" due to his race choice, Eltorrow is a fairly recent addition to the forums. He has however dived right in and now has a list of copy/paste answers longer than a politician.

Also six quests at the [[Argent Tournament]] once you reach a high enough rank. Note that these quests will give [[Knights of the Ebon Blade]] reputation instead for [[Death Knight]]s.

One of the members of the Coven. Possibly the youngest member, diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome which he believes makes him "a bit slow on the answers". He believes his key ability is to sort out the more lesser issues which the Coven does not continuously spam around such as harassment or posts posted on the wrong forum to different forums.
  
   
  +
==Rewards==
−
Because of his disability, he has had conflicts, and his status within the Coven has been questioned by members on his realm. The validity of Jakino's claims of Asperger's have been questioned several times in the past by members of his realms. Jakino overall appears as a normal poster and a good, ordinary individual.

Hyperactive, both in real life and on forums. Recently became addicted to Dark Legacy comics and oftenly uses the 51th comic THE FORUM TROLL to point out the trolls. His signature says it all... do not argue with him.

Has been playing WoW for over 3 years, although did take 3 months away due to illness, a regular poster on the EU forums. Originally coined 'The Coven' name in a thread response, this was later adapted to 'Coven of the Blue Panda' by other members. Has now retired from posting on the official forums, although remains an advisor to the Coven.

Tirion Fordring is the leader of the Argent Crusade.

The Argent Crusade is an order of holy warriors formed from the union of the Reformed Order of the Silver Hand and the Argent Dawn. Led by the paladin Tirion Fordring, the Argent Crusade was a major contributor to the successful campaign in Northrend that toppled the Lich King. As of the Shattering, they currently work to restore the Plaguelands of northern Lordaeron.

History

Wrath-Logo-Small This section concerns content related to Wrath of the Lich King.

The Argent Crusade was formed shortly after the Battle for Light's Hope Chapel, as played out during the death knight quest The Light of Dawn, in which Tirion Fordring — leader of the reformed Silver Hand — reclaimed, and evidently purified the Ashbringer during a confrontation with the Lich King. He assumed a leadership position over the Argent Dawn and united the two factions in order to take the fight against the Lich King to Northrend.

According to the quest Tirion's Help, Tirion Fordring handpicked every member in the Argent Crusade in order to avoid infiltration by the Cult of the Damned. This was presumably to prevent a repeat of the Inigo Montoy incident, which resulted in Naxxramas returning to Northrend and Kel'Thuzad regaining corporeal form.

It should be noted that, despite the new Tabard the Argent Crusade uses, several of their members can be found using the old tabard of the Argent Dawn - this is referring to members of the Argent Crusade faction in Northrend, not the Argent Dawn members who are found in Eastern Kingdoms/Kalimdor. Those who wear the old tabard range from the common infantry to the commanders and senior members of the Crusade. This may mean that the two tabards are interchangable in the Crusade, and the old Argent Dawn tabard may still be in production as part of uniform for the members of the Crusade. Avenger Metz, for example, still uses the Argent Dawn tabard instead of the newer Argent Crusade one.

Cataclysm

Cataclysm This section concerns content related to Cataclysm.

Since the Cataclysm, the Argent Crusade has strengthened its presence in the Plaguelands, claiming not only outposts formerly held by the now-defunct Argent Dawn, such as Light's Hope Chapel, but also the former Scarlet Crusade town of Hearthglen, and the four towers through the Eastern Plaguelands, around which the plague has receded.

Reputation

Reputation with the Argent Crusade can be gained by completing the following daily quests.

Reputation can also be gained by purchasing Inv shirt guildtabard 01 [Tabard of the Argent Crusade]1g from Veteran Crusader Aliocha Segard in the Argent Vanguard. This tabard, while worn in level 80 dungeons, awards 2 to 30 reputation per mob depending on its difficulty and 300 reputation per boss to your standing with the Argent Crusade.

Also six quests at the Argent Tournament once you reach a high enough rank. Note that these quests will give Knights of the Ebon Blade reputation instead for Death Knights.

Notable characters
