Heute veröffentlichten die Entwickler von World of Warcraft wieder einmal einen neuen Artikel auf ihrer offiziellen Communityseite, der als Übersicht zu dem heute gestarteten Oktober 2016 fungieren soll und alle während dieses Monats in diesem Titel oder in der Community stattfindenden Ereignisse auflistet. Wer sich also bereits im Vorfeld über die in den nächsten vier Wochen anstehenden Feiertage, die wöchentlichen Ingame Events, geplante Turniere für das PvP oder die Testphase zu Patch 7.1 informieren möchte, der sollte einen Blick auf diesen von den Mitarbeitern von Blizzard Entertainment verfassten Blogeintrag werfen.

 

 

This Month in WoW – October 2016

It’s the month of Brewfest, Hallow’s End, esports, and more! There’s much to see and do, and we have our eye on what the community’s up to, too. In this October edition of This Month in WoW, we look forward to some of the more remarkable things going on in the World of Warcraft community.

 

Holidays

Brewfest [September 20-October 6]

Brewfest is a time to enjoy the fermented fruits of the harvest: pretzels, cheese, and brew! The competing breweries Thunderbrew, Barleybrew, and the Ogres all come together outside of all the major cities in a bid to outdo each other with their special ales, meads, and beers. Brave adventurers are invited to sit back, take a pull, and sample the finest wares these brewers have to offer!

Brewfest is your only chance to acquire the Swift Brewfest Ram and Great Brewfest Kodo mounts, as well as the Wolpertinger and Pint-Sized Pink Pachyderm pets. It’s also an opportunity to get your brew-covered mitts on items such as the Stout Alemental pet, the Steamworks Sausage Grill, and Brewfest Banner toys!

 

Hallow’s End [October 18 – November 1]

Hallow’s End is a celebration of the break between the Forsaken and the Scourge. Many tricks and treats await adventurers seeking holiday fun, including going head-to-neck-stump with the Headless Horseman, visiting inns and cities for fun items such as masks and costumes, and eating way too much candy in one sitting.

You’ll find a special Hallow’s End Wickerman set up and ready to burn in Stormwind and near the Undercity in the Ruins of Lordaeron. Every four hours, Genn Greymane and Lady Sylvanas will arrive to light each faction’s respective Wickerman in celebration of Hallow’s End.

 

 

Esports Live Events

World of Warcraft teams are set to compete in a battle royale to find out who among them will take their Regional and advance to the World of Warcraft Arena World Championships. Three teams from Europe and three from North America will advance to BlizzCon, and will be joined by one team each from the Asia-Pacific region and China.

In Game Events

You can keep up-to-date on all of the in-game events via the in-game calendar, which includes exact event start times for your realm.

Darkmoon Faire [October 2-9]

The wondrous and mystical Darkmoon Faire returns to Azeroth on October 4, and if you haven’t completed all of Silas Darkmoon’s new Darkmoon Races, now’s the time! Test your speed and agility on a variety of racing mounts as you dodge electrifying obstacles and zip all over Darkmoon Island for rewards and achievements. You might also want to take a few moments to be a kid again by going for a ride on the new Darkmoon Seesaw.

The faire continues to be one of the best ways to acquire Heirloom gear, and don’t forget all of the toys, mounts, and pets that can only be gotten here. Bash some gnolls!
