Dates updated. Gidwin & Tarenar quests are up today June 24rd in Americas region.

In general, it might be wise to place the optional items in the Acantina before completing their associated quests.

This has been my rotation sofar (EU):
week 1 (march 4th)
Danath and Kurdran, Scarred Spear
Gidwin and Tarenar, Ebon Banner

week 2 (march 11th)
Tehd and Marius, Corrupted Lantern
(caution: you may need to place the lantern before completing the quest, i could not afterwards :/)

week 3 (march 18th)
Lan'dalock and Timear, Ancient Zandalari Scroll
You can now pick up the Corrupted Lantern from the Broken Shore @ 48.99, 55.36, it's lying on the floor where the portal used to be.

week 7 (april 15th)
Nisha and Cyrus, Ornamental Proudmoore Anchor OR Sandy Vulpera Banner
(you can buy the item you did not choose as a reward from Morta Gage in the Arcantina for 250 Voidlight Marl)

week 8 (april 22nd)
Eitrigg and Darius Crowley, Dried Gilnean Roses OR Clefthoof Hide Rug
(as before, choose one decor as reward, buy the other from Morta Gage for 150 Voidlight Marl)

When you check the Arcantina, do NOT rely on available quests showing up on the Arcantina map. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Today I found Taoshi and Kelsey Steelspark in the large eastern side room - had to walk there to see them, no icon appeared on map.
