As of December 7th, 2023, key adjustments include normalized reputation gains across all objectives, reputation granted to all participants, and an extended event duration of 60 minutes.

Initiating the Clash

The Ashenvale PvP event kicks off with the rhythmic beats of PvP kills resonating across the zone. Keep an eye on the progress bar atop your screen, marking the imminent commencement. The event triggers once the progress bars reach completion, summoning faction leaders—Felore Moonray for Alliance and Kazragore for the Horde. Witness new icons on your map denoting contested areas, and a zone-wide notification igniting the flames of battle:

The Battle for Ashenvale has begun! Seek and defeat the enemy lieutenants and general!

Stay informed with the status of the event displayed at the top of your screen, reminiscent of the epic Alterac Valley battleground.

Battlefield Dynamics: Encampments, Lieutenants, and Triumph

Dive into the heart of the conflict as smaller camps and outposts scatter the zone, guarded by formidable battlefield lieutenants—Keepers of the Grove for Alliance and Blademasters for Horde. Progress unfolds as lieutenants fall, dropping green-quality items and quest items. Cleared encampments weaken the opposing faction's leader, Felore Moonray or Kazragore. The event concludes with the leader's demise or when time expires.

World Buffs + Event Buffs

Forge alliances with your faction's leaders to gain buffs within 40 yards:

Battlefield Inspiration: Allies gain 50% increased health and 20% increased damage.

Battlefield Genius: Allies near the Priestess of the Moon/Far Seer gain 100% increased health and 50% increased damage, with values rising for each living Keeper of the Grove/Blademaster.

Victory rewards you with the Ashenvale Rallying Cry, boosting damage and healing by 5% for 2 hours—an invaluable asset for future raids.

Reputation & Rewards

Participating in offensive actions against enemy lieutenants or faction leaders reaps reputation rewards. Gain 200 reputation for defeating a lieutenant and 100 reputation per friendly lieutenant remaining. Honor points, Warsong Gulch faction reputation, and a promising array of gear from faction quartermasters await triumphant players.
