Blackrock Eruption is a new level 60 world event introduced in WoW Classic<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>Season of Discovery<\/a> Phase 4<\/a> that will simultaneously occur in the Searing Gorge, Blackrock Mountain, and Burning Steppes areas. This new event thematically and narratively fits in with the arrival of Firelord Ragnaros and the Molten Core<\/a> raid as well as the full opening of the Blackrock Mountain dungeons. Described as “lightweight” by the Classic <\/em>team, won’t be as intensive as the previous Blood Moon<\/a> and Nightmare Incursion<\/a> open world events and instead of choosing between a PVE or PVP focus, it incorporates factors from both.<\/p>\n

Here’s what we know about the event so far, how to complete it, and what you can earn!<\/p>\n

When does the event happen and how does it work?<\/h2>\n

Blackrock Eruption is on a consistent timer with the first event of the day beginning at 12AM and repeating every two hours from the 12AM start time — though right now it appears to be happening an hour earlier on the odd-hours of the clock instead. When the event begins it will last a total of 60 minutes with a countdown timer appearing at the top of your screen with a message saying, “Defend against the minions of Ragnaros!” While active new types of enemies, such as the Firelands Invaders<\/a>, and hazardous environments, including deadly meteors raining from the sky, will appear across all 3 areas. Even though the event happens at the same time in 3 zones, each zone varies in what you can do while the event is active.<\/p>\n

Searing Gorge<\/h3>\n

If you’re in the Searing Gorge during the event, you’ll get the Eruption<\/a> buff which prevents you from earning honor from PVP kills. Instead, the Searing Gorge becomes a PVE-centered zone for the duration of the event and a set of level 56-60 daily quests will become available for you at Thorium Point (coordinates 38, 27).<\/p>\n

These daily quests are offered by Taskmaster Scrange<\/a>, Lookout Captain Lolo Longstriker<\/a>, Hansel Heavyhands<\/a>, Evonice Sootsmoker<\/a>, and Master Smith Burninate<\/a>. All these specific daily quests can only be completed in the Searing Gorge and have simple objectives:<\/p>\n
