It seems the pouch that turns your campfire violet isn’t quite as short-lived as previously expected! Blizzard just posted the official article on the new Twitch Drop, and there’s plenty of time to grab it. Watching any eligible WoW stream from today until November 12th will grant you the Pouch of Violet Dust toy.
However, while you can get the toy easily, it will only be used during the “WoW: Forever Launch Celebration” event. There’s plenty of time left on the event, as it ends in early December. The toy will then be removed from players’ collections.
Players can collect and use an ephemeral new launch-celebration toy to enhance their campfire and spread the benefits of comradery as they begin their journey through Azeroth in World of Warcraft: Forever.
Watch any eligible World of Warcraft stream on Twitch.tv from November 4 at 4:30 pm PST to November 12 at 4:30 pm PST to claim the Pouch of Violet Dust Toy. This ephemeral item is available only within WoW: Forever and can only be used during the “WoW: Forever Launch Celebration” event period, which expires in early December. After that point, the toy will be removed from players’ collections and will no longer be available in game.
The Pouch of Violet Dust toy allows players to turn a campfire purple, increasing the duration of all camp benefits by 1 hour (for a total of a 2-hour duration). Once activated, this benefit is shared, and any other players resting at the Camp will receive the same duration extension.
