Chart a course across Kul Tiras and Zandalar for this week’s Bonus Event – World Quests.

THIS WEEK

All week, open your map (default hotkey-"m") and select any of the Kul Tiras or Zandalar regions to view the World Quests available to you. To find out more about each World quest, simply hover your mouse over a World Quest on the map to see what tasks are needed to complete it, the rewards you’ll receive, and the time remaining that the quest is available to you.

Look for the following all week long:

• Chronicler Toopa in Boralus or Chronicler Shoopa in Zuldazar has a quest for you—The World Awaits. You can also start the quest from within the Adventure Guide (Shift-"J").
  • Quest requirement: Complete 20 World Quests in Kul Tiras or Zandalar
  • Reward: 1,000 War Resources
• Passive buff: +50% to Reputation gains from World Quests

If you’ve been looking to impress some emissaries, this is the week to do it!

EVERY WEEK

The Bonus Events system consists of a rotating schedule of different activities, currently scheduled to run each week beginning on Tuesdays. Each Bonus Event grants a passive bonus to a particular game activity and offers a once-per-event quest with a noteworthy reward for accomplishing a related goal. The in-game calendar can serve as your one-stop reference for the event schedule. The Adventure Guide also offers a direct link to active Bonus Events, allowing you to easily accept any associated quests.

Deep Six PvP Brawl (November 27th - December 4th)

Deep Six pits teams of six players against each other in three iconic Battlegrounds: Warsong Gulch, Silvershard Mines, and Temple of Kotmogu. Each Battleground offers a little variation on the traditional format, such as flags that are a bit closer in Warsong Gulch, less carts to keep track of in Silvershard Mines, and only two orbs within the Temple of Kotmogu.

WoW's 14th Anniversary (November 16th - November 30th)

Celebrate WoW's 14th anniversary until the end of the month and kill world bosses for transmog that's only available once per year.

Darkmoon Faire (December 2nd - December 8th)

Stock up on Inky Black Potions and don't forget to make use of the WHEE! that increases reputation and experience gains by 10% for one hour. Check out our Darkmoon Faire guide for details!
