wow New WoW 18th Anniversary Event Highlights: Item Levels, XP Buff and Achievement

[Starym 3,726]

 

The 18th anniversary event is already live on Korean servers, as it arrives later today in the West, and we now know the item levels for the event bosses, as well as the fact that there is no new addition since last year.

As reported by rosemansion222, there's the standard WoW's 18th Anniversary achievement, the 18% Celebration Package XP buff and the item levels are 272 for the World Bosses. You can check out everything that's coming with the event today in our anniversary event guide here as well. Also, don't forget you can combine the event buff, Winds of Wisdom and Darkmoon Faire buff for a whopping 78% XP boost, as you can read more about here.

And while it is possible (if unlikely) that there's more to the event that rosemansion222 may have missed, even if there isn't it wouldn't be that unusual, as we don't get new things added to the event every year. And with the Dragonflight release so close, it's perhaps better that the focus be on the expansion, which is only 22 days away!

272 is actually really nice right before new expansion for alts. especially weapon wise.

I remember when once we got a cool Deathwing-like mount, but looks like that was an exception.

Forget the deathwing mount, the corehound is where it's at.

I would disagree with that being an exception. That was a 15 year anniversary reward, just like there was the Corehound for the 10 year anniversary. The Doomhawk was the real out of left field new mount for the 17th year anniversary

That was last year's anniversary reward, so it's great for those who missed out last year to get it

"as well as the fact that there is no new addition since last year."
Doomhawk was added 2021 as a drop from Doomwalker. The only thing that would be news about it is whether it's obtainable again or not, like the other anniversary mounts

I wish they never removed the past years stuff, so there would be an ever-increasing amount of stuff for the anniversary.

You are correct, there was Doomhawk. Almost forgot about it, maybe because it was so bland looking.
