The Open-World RPG is celebrating its 18th year, and we couldn’t be more enthusiastic about the WoW 18th Anniversary world bosses and the Anniversary event! Every year, WoW organizes a three-week event to commemorate its anniversary, and it’s now time for this year’s celebration. However, because the event is taking place at the same time as Darkmoon Faire this year, there will be a significant XP and reputation gain bump as well! A Celebration package will also be available. Continue reading to find out all we know so far regarding World of Warcraft’s 18th Anniversary event this year!
World of Warcraft (WoW) is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) released in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment. Set in the Warcraft fantasy universe, World of Warcraft takes place within the world of Azeroth, approximately four years after the events of the previous game in the series, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. The game was announced in 2001, and was released for the 10th anniversary of the Warcraft franchise on November 23, 2004. Since launch, World of Warcraft has had eight major expansion packs: The Burning Crusade (2007), Wrath of the Lich King (2008), Cataclysm (2010), Mists of Pandaria (2012), Warlords of Draenor (2014), Legion (2016), Battle for Azeroth (2018), and Shadowlands (2020), with a ninth, Dragonflight, currently in development.
Similar to other MMORPGs, the game allows players to create a character avatar and explore an open game world in third- or first-person view, exploring the landscape, fighting various monsters, completing quests, and interacting with non-player characters (NPCs) or other players. The game encourages players to work together to complete quests, enter dungeons and engage in player versus player (PvP) combat, however, the game can also be played solo without interacting with others. The game primarily focuses on character progression, in which players earn experience points to level up their character to make them more powerful and buy and sell items using in-game currency to acquire better equipment, among other game systems.
New WoW 18th anniversary world bosses: Doomwalker, Illidary Doomhawk
- Doomwalker, The World Boss
Doomwalker may be found in Tenaris, at the entrance to the Caverns of Time. During the anniversary event, you can kill Doomwalker for treasure and Timewarped Badges every day. He will always drop a Doomwalker Trophy Stand and Illidary Doomhawk, though. To acquire treasure from this boss, you must be at least level 30.
- Mount Illidary Doomhawk
You may earn the Illidary Doomhawk mount by completing the Anniversary Event Weekly Quests every week.
There is a minor adjustment for the one-handed axe, Akama’s Edge, to drop when you beat Doomwalker during the World of Warcraft Event.
