Is it any good for leveling? That’s one of the things I’ve been hoping for, I have so many characters between like 55 and 65 I’d like to get to 70.

I’ve decided I’d like the developer who thought this was going to be fun to be given an ultimatum:

  1. Spend their working hours playing this event for the next few weeks while it is up.
  2. Clean out their desk and resign immediately.

I bet they choose option 2.

its terrible. one currency per mob, big boss dies within the first 10 minutes and doesnt respawn at all until that zone is active again, you need to kill the bosses multiple times to make the heirloom ring, and all the rewards are just purple recolors of legion gear. the heirloom ring is the only worth while thing and they made it a pain to get. the mount is just a azerite fart recolor of your faction’s chosen flight path mount

It’s actually near-impossible for leveling since the boss scaling is bugged and my level 25 character was trying to kill a boss with 500 million hp.

There aren’t 70s around to nuke it?

Dunno, there when Ony was supposed to spawn. But no, Ony. MIA.
Broken masquerade quest not complete.

The event lasts for about 5 minutes every 90 minutes and the boss is about 15 seconds of that. Since it’s on a specific timer, you can only do it on one character each time.

The currency drops are so low and the mob density is so sparse that the events aren’t worth farming outside of the bosses. You’ll have to kill around 200 bosses or so (which currently spawn every 90 minutes) and do all 3 weekly quests each week to unlock all the stuff.

It’s very confusing why they would release the event this way considering they clearly have the technology to do otherwise, as they did in prior pre-patch events, and they know the math ain’t mathing when it comes to currency drops and rewards. I can only assume they don’t want the players to actually play the event.

Damn, glad I’m home. Sounds like some issues need addressed. Thank you all

Not buggy, but here is the deal:

Each area has a timer of when a miniboss will appear, and each area has a daily quest too.
Be at the point where the Miniboss will appear, kill it when timer starts, whole area goes kinda nuts for echoes, kill miniboss #2, collect reward, turn in quest.

However, there are chrome looking dots on your map, those areas also have the things to kill for memories. People are ignoring this part a lot currently and think it only has to do with the miniboss.

Lastly, the game is the same as every other pre-expansion gear, it is catch up gear for alts that you buy (ilvl 480 / vet) but the items you get from bosses are ilvl 490. Oh and warbanks work now, so you can transfer the cloth you are going to get as plate to another toon. :wink:

At the event right now, its not great… not sure its bugged or its intended to put us to wait… but I just text my brother and friend to wait before they come back to play full again… they don’t have much time to play and this would be a terrible welcome to WoW at this point.

But the at least my Warlock feel very good to play… I was having fun farming some currency for transmogs

It’s horrible and bugged. you aren’t missing anything.

It’s not that I’m overlooking it or ignoring it it’s just that the mobs literally drop 1-5 currency each. Like it’s so low and not that fast i don’t know if it’s even worth it. Just an awful grind and the event is not as fun as I was hoping it may be.
