Micro-holidays are a new type of short in-game events coming to World of Warcraft in Legion with Patch 7.1.5. Unlike existing in-game events, micro-holidays last a day or two at the most and are not tied to achievements. They are meant as fun, non-mandatory events that keep the world feeling "alive".
Micro-holidays[]
Known micro-holidays include the following:[1]
DATE | EVENT | DESCRIPTION |
---|---|---|
January 21 - 23[2] | Call of the Scarab | To commemorate the first ringing of the Scarab Gong on January 23, 2006, players will be able to relive a portion of the Ahn'Qiraj gate opening by collecting items for turn-in. The winning faction will then be able to claim bragging rights and have their faction flag hang over the gates until the next Call of the Scarab micro-holiday event. |
