The Kirin Tor Tavern Crawl is active in World of Warcraft. A micro-holiday that could rival the Brewfest – if it weren’t bugged.
With all the crazy things happening in Azeroth, it can be a bit stressful. An invasion from the Legion, Old Gods rising, huge dragons, or family trying to keep you from your raid dinner. To simply unwind from everyday life, the mages of the Kirin Tor decided to use their magical powers for something other than fireballs or frostbolts: They teleport from tavern to tavern.
What sounds like the crazy dream of first-year students at a mage academy has now become reality in WoW. Those who want to participate today (31.07.2017) speak to the respective NPC in Dalaran and will be teleported to the current tavern.
Lots of alcohol, nothing of importance at the Kirin Tor Tavern Crawl
In the taverns, there’s plenty of beer and other alcoholic beverages to sample, food with useful buffs, and some costumes that last for a few hours. However, the event, like all micro-holidays, doesn’t have any really “permanent” benefits.
However, there is a problem: The phasing of the event is faulty. Clickable objects and other players disappear every few seconds, only to reappear moments later. It’s hard to get into the party mood when other guests keep disappearing.
Cortyn says: Honestly, I find this event less enjoyable than the previous dance party in the auction houses – even though that was much simpler. The different taverns feel barely different, and thanks to the very faulty phasing, there’s no real fun to be had. It’s understandable why this event was postponed in the past. However, it’s baffling to me why it went live in this bugged state now.
