I was a World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria beta tester, and I'm currently half through Honored with the Klaxxi in live realms. I had absolutely no clue there was an extra daily quest until an old guildmate told me about it.
This extra daily quest provides an extra 143 reputation points with The Klaxxi, an extra 5 Valor points, and an extra Lesser Charm of Good Fortune.
The Warlord Gurthan
This hidden quest can only be obtained when The Klaxxi gives you sub-quests for the area around The Terrace of Gurthan. You require another player to come with you to enable this hidden quest. Go to the Terrace of Gurthan in the Dread Wastes (coordinates: 66.27,31.46).
You will see an urn at the feet of a broken statue, and two circles on the ground. Stand on the red rune (circle) and type /kneel -- then stand on the green rune (circle) and type /lie
Actually, just typing /lie on the green circle seems to do the trick.
An elite mogu spirit spawns from the urn. It has 1575K health. Kill it and loot it. An item named Ashes of Warlord Gurthan triggers a quest titled "The Warlord's Ashes". Turn in the quest at The Klaxxi'Vess.
Kil'ruk the Wind-Reaver will grant you the rewards, and you can repeat the same steps everyday for your extra rewards. This will certainly help with the reputation and gear grind.
The way this hidden quest is creatively designed, however, makes me wonder ... are there more hidden daily quests out there?
Kypa'rak's Core
The Kypa'rak's Core quest can only be obtained when The Klaxxi gives you a set of sub-quests in the Zan'Vess area. While flying above The Briny Muck, you might see from afar the gigantic Kypa'rak (an elite rockworm). Sometimes it's patrolling underground, but the red text name can still be seen.
Kill it, and loot the Massive Kyparite Core item that triggers the quest. Turn it back at The Klaxxi'Vess for your bonus reputation, valor points and Lesser Charm of Fortune.
There are few extra quests available but they’re not always up depending on what part of the Dread Wastes the dailies are taking place in. I’m listing the subzone and the NPC that will drop the quest in that subzone.
Terrace of Guthran – Warlord Guthran, requires to people to summon as explained above.
Heart of Fear – Karanosh, elite Kunchong labeled as “Matriarch of the Kunchong” she is a huge bug that normally sit in sha scar near the front of the raid entrance. She is huge and rather hard to miss.
Zan’Vess – Kypa’rak, larger Kyparite giant that wanders around the Briny Muck that lies between the mainland and Zan’Vess.
Lake of Stars – Unknown, I’ve not been able to find any mobs that drop an item nor events to trigger to unlock other mobs. I’ve also been through the wowhead database but still can’t seem to find anything.
Remember, the only mob that will be active will be the one tied to that subzone. So if the dailies have you killing spiders on the Terrace only the Warlord will be active but if the dailies have you collecting shackles on Zan’Vess only Kypa’rak will active.
The last one is this: https://www.wowhead.com/npc=64724
Funny you should make an article on this today, I just found this yesterday. Great minds… ^^
PS: typing /sleep works as well.
