wow Patch 7.1.5: Volunteer Guard Day Micro-Holiday

[Stan 592]

The Volunteer Guard Day lets you take on the role of a guard by performing the /salute emote on them. The micro-holiday will be live on April 23.

You can take on the appearance of any guard, by doing /salute. After that you will get the buff Volunteer City Guard that causes you to be periodically attacked by different City Invaders. You can participate in the event even if you're not at max level. The invader's level will be adjusted to your character's level. Other guards have quite a long aggro range when it comes to invaders, so if they're at lower levels they may one-shot them and you may not have time to tag them to get a kill count.

The buff lasts 24 hours and persists through death and won't wear off if you leave the city. Killing a higher amount of invaders will give you different buff variations (descriptions) like "Defender" and so on.

It doesn't matter if you're male or female, you will take on the appearance of any guard you perform /salute on while you target him.

There are various invaders ranging from Shadow Priests using Dispersion up to Tauren Druids wearing Tier 2 sets.

Every invader kill will increase your invader kill count on your buff, which can be viewed by any player that hovers over it.

The event isn't limited to a single town or your level. As long as you have the buff and you're transformed into a guard, you can teleport or visit a different town. Invaders will continue to attack and guards will assist you.

..... is there an achievement or reward with this? I searched all over internet and I can't find any denial or confirming remark about this...

I don't believe so, no.
