Confront the memories of Azeroth during the updated pre-expansion event and collect Residual Memories to purchase new items to add to your Warband collection. We've made changes to the event so that players have less down time between stages and more opportunities to gain rewards.
When: July 30 – August 26
Where: Dalaran (hub), Dragonblight, Dustwallow Marsh, and Searing Gorge
Currency: Residual Memories – Half forgotten memories can be glimpsed in the light playing across this iridescent powder.
Levels: 10-70
Players with and without The War Within™ will be able to take part in this event for its duration.
Confronting Memories
Players who have reached level 70 will receive an introductory quest and then will be directed to visit Dalaran to start. Players under level 70 will be immediately directed to Dalaran.
The event occurs in two stages and cycles between three zones, changing zones every hour. Portals in Dalaran will be available to take you directly to the event staging area and a return portal is available in each of the event zones so that players can quickly return to Dalaran and head into the next occurrence of the event. When the event is active in a zone, the portal will have an additional golden glow to indicate that it is active.
Stage 1 Defeat the radiant echoes causing havoc in the zone. Random events that are active within the zone can be seen on the map (M). Event locations throughout the stages are marked by a multicolor globe. Once enough memories have been defeated, a zone boss will spawn.
Stage 2 You’ll be able to undertake a quest in each zone during the event that will ask for you to defeat one of the event bosses as follows:
- Only Darkness: Remembered Lich King Slain (Dragonblight)
- Broken Masquerade: Remembered Onyxia Slain (Dustwallow Marsh)
- Champion of the Waterlords: Remembered Firelord Slain (Searing Gorge)
Please note that once the boss is defeated by players, Stage 4 will begin and the boss will no longer be available to kill for the quest completion until the event begins in the zone again. Bosses can also rarely drop additional pieces of gear.
Once the boss is defeated by players the event will return to stage 1, spawning new memories to fight.
Rewards
Players will be able to accumulate Residual Memories to use to purchase items from various vendors in each of the zones. You can keep track of how much Residual Memories you’ve collected by opening Character Info (Hotkey- C) and the currency tab under the War Within dropdown.
- Dalaran: Remembrancer Amuul in Chamber of the Guardian
- Dragonblight: Echo of the Silver Hand at Wyrmrest Temple
- Dustwallow Marsh: Forgotten Hero at Tabetha’s Farm
- Searing Gorge: Memory of a Duke in the Iron Summit
Players who purchase the Lifeless Stone Ring will be able to collect memories throughout the three event zones to combine into essences and infuse it with power creating the Band of Radiant Echoes (item level 227) heirloom ring.
- Essence of the Eastern Kingdoms
- Essence of Kalimdor
- Essence of Northrend
Gear will begin at item level 480 with some room for upgrades. Here’s what you can look forward to:
