It's a lot simpler to explain than it was to create. Just start in Orgrimmar, Thunder Bluff, Stormwind, Ironforge, Shattrath, or on Darkmoon Island. It will pick up/turn in the breadcrumb quest, Test Your Strength (does not kill anything, will just turn it in if complete), pick up/turn in any of the monthly item turn ins if they are in your inventory (Treatise on Strategy/etc.), and of course do the dailies (it will continue using tokens until each quest is complete). It will automatically buy more game tokens as needed. It should do everything for all the profession quests, except archaeology (see below).

You must copy the files in the Quest Behaviors folder into HonorBuddy's Quest Behaviors folder!

There are two profiles, "[N] Darkmoon Faire Quests by timglide.xml" is the main one you will want to run. The other is discussed below in the Testing section.

I ran it on several characters and all five dailies were working very well with the following notes:
- it sometimes gets stuck on the houses for the tonk daily, but either you will eventually get marked and it will move or the 30 seconds will pass and it will start over anyway, it also doesn't exit the tonk vehicle once the quest requirement is complete (it just waits it out), not a big deal if you're afk anyway
- it sometimes tries to whack the same gnoll several times but that's pretty minor (this has been reduced)
- the humanoid cannonball may require some tweaking, *see below*

Profession Quests
Thanks to AtticusG3 for getting some of the profession quest work done.

Any quests that require trade goods, or an anvil in the case of blacksmithing, will automatically use the portal to go back to Mulgore/Elwynn and buy/do stuff in either Thunder Bluff or Goldshire.
This will only work if you do not rename the profile as it relies on restarting the profile via the LoadProfile behavior.

Archaeology is not implemented, but it will now fish for the fishing profession quest if you have a fishing pole.

I have personally tested
- alchemy
- blacksmithing
- cooking
- enchanting
- engineering
- first aid
- fishing (limited)
- herbalism
- jewelcrafting
- mining
- skinning
however, I can only test once really. The other professions are my best guess plus AtticusG3's work.

Tweaking
You can disable turning in the monthly items (Treatise/etc.) by looking for the appropriately commented line (around line 112) and changing the if condition to false
Code: 
<If Condition="true"> <!-- set to false to disable monthly item turnins -->
to
Code: 
<If Condition="[COLOR="#FF0000"]false[/COLOR]"> <!-- set to false to disable monthly item turnins -->

You may need to adjust the settings for the humanoid cannonball daily. Look for the line (around line 322) like
Code: 
<CustomBehavior File="DMF_Cannon" CancelTimeLeft="1.1" UseTeleport="true" TickRate="60" />
The bot will cancel the wings buff when it has CancelTimeLeft seconds remaining. 1.1 worked acceptably on the toons I tested with. It always only took two attempts to get all the quest credit
The bot will talk to the gnome to be ported back to the cannon if UseTeleport is true. Otherwise it will walk.
TickRate (in ticks per second) makes HonorBuddy run faster for the duration of this quest behavior. You might have problems if your computer sucks. If it's too low, it will be too late by the time HB realizes it should remove the wings buff.

It may also help timing for cancelling the wings buff if you disable WoW's background FPS limit (Escape->Options->Advanced, near top right).

There are some settings for whack-a-gnoll but I won't go into them as it works good enough for me.

Testing the Quest Behaviors
If you want to test a particular daily quest behavior, load the included "[N] Darkmoon Faire Dailies Test by timglide.xml" profile and stand next to the quest giver for whichever one you want to test. It will simply perform the behavior without accepting or turning in the quest. This may help tweaking the humanoid cannonball for example.

Just tested it, works great.

'Whack-a-gnoll' is fine, I did notice the bugs you mentioned, however it probably makes it look human.
'He shoots, he scores' worked perfectly.
'Tonk commander' worked perfectly. Runs away when marked, I didn't see it get stuck on houses either, seemed to do a good job of jumping over them.
'The humanoid cannonball' was awesome, got Blastenheimer Bullseye.
'Target turtle' worked perfectly.

+Rep awesome job.
 
Tested, working well, only thing I had to adjust was it would spam the number 1 button (where as my number 1 button is `). I had to adjust my hotbar keybinds to make it press appropriately. Success on all ends, worked great.
 
Excellent profile. Everything works amazingly well. I had my doubts and was really surprised. Kudos to you good sir

Yeah, I kind of made the assumption that everyone has 1 bound to the first action button because I could not figure out how to get it to cast it otherwise. I don't think SpellManager.Cast(id) works because you seem to temporarily learn the spell for the duration of the buff and SpellManager only checks what spells you know upon initialization if I understand it correctly, and Lua.DoString("CastPetAction(1)") doesn't seem to work (it would probably work for the tonk one but not the others). Also, Lua.DoString("CastSpell(..., ...)") seems to require the index of a spell in the spellbook, as opposed to the actual id.
 
Tested it this morning and works mega good .. now i just need to cut it into my other day
 
A bug I neglected to notice before uploading could stop the bot if you run out of game tokens while completing the tonk quest. I will fix later but you can change the stop condition at the very bottom to
Code: 
<If Condition="!(HasQuest(29463) || HasQuest(29436) || HasQuest(29438) || HasQuest(29434) || HasQuest(29455))">
If you don't make the change, starting HB again will continue the profile just fine.

I'm still realy impressed about your work and how you wrote your quest behavior. you did a realy great work
buy showing everyone it's possible ^^
 
Hey I gotta give you +rep for this one, flawless really! Thanks alot for this timglide! :D
 
Another amazing effort from timglide! This works flawlessly. I was stunned as I watched this complete all of the dailies.

The only thing I had to change was my keybinds as I had action button 1 bound to tilde "~" but just swapped those out.

Great work as always timglide! Liked and repped :)

That should not be necessary with r373. Perhaps I should just remove the older version ;)

Oh that's awesome, I didn't see the update (had downloaded the first version earlier today). I'm sure that'll work (if not I'll post back).

Thanks again!
