So where are these BG Holidays anyways?

Mkopec1 · 09-17-2005, 08:24 AM

In the patch notes it mentioned that there will be ambassadors appearing in major cities for extra quests and faction and CP honor bonuses for the weekends.

Well man of us searched high and low for these NPC and cannot find them. Is this another broken item?

Battleground "holidays" have been added to Warsong Gulch, Alterac Valley and Arathi Basin. Holidays occur during most weekends, starting on Thursday night at midnight and continuing until Tuesday morning. During a holiday, emmissaries from that Battleground will be found in the major cities, and honor/faction rewards for performing objectives in that battleground are increased.

Something about a hot-fix last night to fix this?

I found 'em everywhere though. I ran into them when I took the elevator down into UC, getting off the FP tower in Org, etc..

Well I don't know about your server, but these damn Arathi people we're all over the damn place in our ironforge. They stand with two's at an alliance flagpole and do occasional rounds through the city. I've seen them at pretty much every point of interest in IF, including the birdpoint, the main entrance x 2, the AH area, and throughout all the guildhalls.

Now, what was keeping the emmisaries from WG and AV from showing up, I don't know,

Mkopec1 · 09-17-2005, 08:27 AM

Ahh so they are in as of a hotfix last night?

Dynalisia · 09-17-2005, 08:35 AM

I've seen them thursday night on our server, but it's possible only the american servers had trouble with them though.

Do they actually give you anything, or do they just tell you that you can get extra CP and rep?

Dynalisia · 09-17-2005, 10:11 AM

Not even that, they only tell you (and map-mark) where the battlemaster is.

Yep, awesome.

The patch notes said nothing about more quests. Only more honor and more faction.

So really, what did you expect?

redav · 09-17-2005, 01:48 PM

exactly how much extra faction are we supposed to be getting?

As far as I can tell, everything is pretty close to doubled.

Mkopec1 · 09-17-2005, 02:51 PM

I logged on today and finally the weekend shit is in.

It seems like it doubles your faction and CP. Great for weekend warriors.

xlurkerx · 09-17-2005, 03:42 PM

Yep, you get CP/rep every 130 resources instead of every 250 resources now in Arathi Basin.

Each weekend is a different BG I guess, which is good.

From the official site:

"Battleground Holidays

So again, where is my fucking BG holidays?

Why say thursday to tuesday when you really mean sat and sun like last week.

WTF?
