TheWoWDBAs you advance from Aspirant to Valiant to Champion within the Argent Tournament, there will be dailies available for killing the Scourge of Icecrown. The Aspirant version requires 8 kills, the Valiant 10, and the Champion 15. Prior to 3.2, you could kill most types of Scourge in Icecrown for credit, but now only the Cult of the Damned counts. Thus, it is no longer possible to kill the same mobs to complete both the Valiant and Champion quests.
This particular quest is for Alliance Champions who are death knights. As for all the Champion quests, the Writ reward is for purchasing reputation for the individual city factions from their quartermasters, while the Purse pays out a flat 10g reward. Thus if you are an Ambassador of the Alliance, always go for the purse. The other champion versions of this quest include:
- Horde Death Knights
- Other Alliance classes
- Other Horde classes

Since the quest was changed with last patch the best place to do it now in my eyes is the new territory west of the tournament grounds (Deatchspeaker's Watch; 65,23 and further west) .
You have to do some other dailys here as well and all the NPCs belong to the "Cult of the Damned".
This quest has been changed from any scourge mob to Cult of the Damned members. Commonly found south of the Argent Tournament area at Sindragosa's Fall.
At a glance

Description
While we all play at mock combat, it will do us good to remember that the real enemy surrounds us. The Argent Crusade wants to use competition to find the best fighters, but we can tell that by who returns from battle. Let's show the paladins that we are willing to take battle to the Cult of the Damned, even while making preparations for the tournament. Go forth into Icecrown and slay any of the cultists you encounter. They have a strong presence around Aldur'thar and Deathspeaker's Watch.
