Brewfest 2020

Raise your tankards and get ready for fun, this year’s Brewfest has now begun! Brewfest will run from September 20th through October 6th. For a complete overview of the event feel free to check out WoWHead’s guide: Brewfest 2020

New for 2020
The only new updates for this year appear to be an ilevel increase on the loot received from the Brewfest dungeon boss, Coren Direbrew.

*Side Note*
We have not been informed yet of when the Shadowlands Pre Patch event will launch. However, since it has shown up on the background downloader we should expect it soon. Please use caution while participating in any holiday events from now until Shadowlands goes live. It may be wise to pop in on a non-challenger to make sure things look safe before venturing out.

The following information is for the Iron Man Challenge. For information on the other challenge variants please see below.

Quests and Daily Quests
You may complete all of the quests and daily quests for this event except for Direbrew’s Dire Brew (Horde) & Direbrew’s Dire Brew (Alliance). This quest drops from Coren Direbrew in Blackrock Depths and you are NOT ALLOWED to participate in dungeons.
Please be advised, while all quests and daily quests are allowed, the Pink Elekks on Parade quest may pose a risk above level 109. At level 110 and above when clicking on the portal to Darnassus you will be redirected to Darkshore. From level 110 and up this zone becomes a level 120 area. If the opposite faction is in control you will be pvp flagged. You will need to talk to Zidormi to return Darkshore and Darnassus back to their former glory in order to complete this quest at those levels.

Invasions
There are now three different invasion dailies that can occur at your Brewfest camp location. They are as follows: Hozen Totem, Contained Alemental, and Direbrew Cog. It appears that you will only be able to turn in one of these three per day. While all daily quests are ALLOWED please keep in mind that the mobs that spawn during these dailies can pack a punch. You may want to keep clear until the quest item becomes available to grab.

Brewfest Enthusiast
At 6:15 AM & 6:15 PM Pacific time Mekkatorque and Saurfang will give speeches near their camps. At the end of the speech, they will then cast the Brewfest Enthusiast buff on those in the area. This buff has a two-hour duration and increases experience by 10%. This buff is NOT ALLOWED! If you are in the area when the buff is applied simply right-click it off.

Coren Direbrew
Coren Direbrew is this event’s main boss and since he is located in Blackrock Depths you are NOT ALLOWED to participate in his slaying.

Cosmetics, Toys, and Pets
Most of the cosmetic items have been turned to uncommon quality (green) so those are NOT ALLOWED. There are a few common quality (white) items still in place but please do be careful with these. Do not leave them on. Should you have them on and they get upgraded to uncommon quality (green) in the future you will get flagged.
There are several toys and a few pets available for you to spend your event tokens on. Remember while all toys may be ALLOWED any buffs they give you need to be removed ASAP and even though you are allowed to pick up any missing pets from your collection you are NOT ALLOWED to pet battle with your challengers!
