New 2.4.3 PTR Build Brings New Headless Horseman Loot

New 2.4.3 PTR Build Brings New Headless Horseman Loot

They’ve been revamping all the holidays and Halloween is going to get hit with a second round of makeup. I really enjoyed the first wave of changes where the Headless Horseman was brought into play. It’s a fun little story and a chance at some relatively low level epic items and some fun items on [...]

Coren Direbrew: New Brewfest Boss loot table.

In keeping with the idea that all these Holidays are being revamped and redone to have more content, Brewfest has undergone a little face-lift. Like the Headless Horseman and Ahune, we’re going to have another boss fight on our hands and this time the prizes are both great and of an alcoholic nature, so you [...]

Brewfest Testing on the PTRs & No Kodo for Alliance.

It’s just like Ahune and the Headless Horseman. Coren on the other hand drops some really awesome loot. Soon as links work I’ll share.
We’ve made some changes to Brewfest this year, and we’re testing it out on the PTR. We have a few things in particular we’d like you to test when the holiday is [...]

Mid-summer Fire Festival! Ahune the Frost Lord’s full drop list & strategy guide!

Howdy everybody. Now that you’ve had a weekend to go about throwing flaming torches and getting your fingertips singed, here’s a good solid look at the new big boss man to take down during the holiday event.

First we’ll look at the fight itself. It’s very similar to the Headless Horseman fight which is a bit [...]

Children’s Week starts today!

It’s May 1st and today is the first day of Children’s Week! In lieu of my little discovery about the Polar Bear Cub pet, I was checking through Warcraft Pets and found they had written a great guide on this holiday event and I suggest you folks go check them out. Breanni does an excellent [...]

The Daily Spoon: Children's Week is coming up!

The Daily Spoon: Children’s Week is coming up!

This is actually one of the Holiday events in game that I really enjoy. For just a little bit of time invested in exploring the game world (which can sometimes reignite good times in game) you can get yourself a pretty unique little pet. For some these little touches are a slap in the face [...]

Nobel Garden was yesterday, Easter Sunday.

Sorry for the overdue post, I had a pretty bad weekend and it seems the stream of shit keeps flowing. Anyways, the whole world event thing is one day so it’s really under the radar for the most part. The only rewards really, aside from partaking of the event itself, would be a pretty frilly [...]

Gripes about Midsummer Festival.

I’ll just directly quote the forum thread as it sums everything up pretty concisely. Needless to say, one player is pissy that the holiday event is changing so much, and Kisirani replies.

With all the changes going on in Patch 2.4 it’s easy to forget the other events going on in the game. As you all well know, the Mid-summer fire festival is getting an overhaul with a new epic boss as well as other changes and fancy new loot.
I’ve been posting updates about the renewed holiday [...]

Patch 2.4 PTR: Mid-summer festival focus testing

Kisirani posted this recently as now the folks over in world events want us to focus more on the new boss I mentioned a few posts ago.
Hello everyone! With the PTRs back online, we’re getting Midsummer back up and running, and with it we’d like to have some dedicated focus on testing the Ahune [...]
