Hey everyone, and welcome to another bit of WoW History! Every week, we look down at important events that happened in WoW for that week!
This week is loaded on the older news side, so this should be fun!
2016
October 2nd, 2016
The new 7.1 dungeon, Return to
Karazhan
was revealed this day!
The legacy of Medivh, who betrayed Azeroth and brought an end to the Guardian's chain, made Karazhan particularly interesting to the Legion, who wishes to use the dark tower as a front in the war on Azeroth. Karazhan was revamped and brought to Legion levels, with a lot of new features.
Return to Karazhan was initially released as a Mythic-only dungeon, with 9 new bosses. Karazhan was eventually made available on Heroic and Mythic Keystone difficulties, and split into two sections: Upper and Lower Karazhan. The Mythic version of the instance hasn't been split.
Upper and Lower Karazhan has 4 bosses each, with
Plaie-de-Nuit
being a Mythic-exclusive boss.
Like it's original version in Burning Crusade, Karazhan has a long attunement chain that includes running a number of Mythic dungeons. The attunement is account-wide, meaning you only have to do it once.
Plaie-de-Nuit
, the Mythic exclusive boss, is summoned via a long event within the dungeon. This sort of mirrors his Burning Crusade counterpart, where he became summonable after finishing a long quest chain.
This quest chain has since been removed from the game.
The Opera Event, one of the most famous encounters in the Old Karazhan, got new shows:
Westfall Story
, based on the musical
West Side Story
;
Wikke
t, based on the musical
Wicked
; and
Beautiful Beast
, based on the animation
Beauty and the Beast
.

October 6th, 2014
One of the upcoming features in Patch 6,0, the Pre-Warlords Patch, was a
update on racial abilities
. Many of those changes involved the removal of Hit Chance and Expertise, so they were updated accordingly. Listed below are the races that had racial changes on the Pre-Warlords patch.
Dwarves got
Puissance de la montagne
as a new racial and
Forme de pierre
was changed to also include Magic and Curse effects.
Gnomes got
Doigts agiles
as a new racial and
Maître de l’évasion
had it's cooldown reduced to 1 minute.
Humans had
L’esprit humain
changed from Spirit to Versatility. Spirit was later removed entirely as a stat in Legion.
Draenei had
Don des Naaru
's periodic healing time reduced from 15 to 5 seconds, and
Présence héroïque
now increases your Primary stat instead of Hit Chance.
Night Elves got
Toucher d’Elune
as a new racial and
Rapidité
now also increases Movement Speed slightly.
Trolls got a few nerfs, with
Tueur de bêtes
changed from damage against Beasts to experience gained from them, and
Berserker
nerfed from 20% to 15% Haste.
Undeads'
Volonté des Réprouvés
had it's cooldown increased to 3 minutes (later reverted), and they can now breathe underwater!

October 6th, 2013
The Darkmoon Faire is in town, and with it,
there is a new boss with vanity loot,
Croc-de-Lune
!
Moonfang is a shared tag boss that can spawn after the players kill a high number of
Grogneur croc-de-lune
and
Hurleffroi croc-de-lune
on the outskirts of the faire. Moonfang drops
Fourrure de Croc-de-Lune
, that opens a quest chain for 10
Bon(s) pour un prix de Sombrelune
, and can drop vanity items such as the pet
Loulou
, a reference to the
Moon Moon meme
, and the toys
Patte de Croc-de-Lune
and
Voile de Croc-de-Lune
.
Check out when we reported this!

October 2nd, 2012 - Mogu'shan Vaults Opens
The first Pandaria raid,
Caveaux Mogu’shan
, opened on this day!
Located in the northeast part of Kun-Lai Summit, this raid server as an entrance-level raid to raiders in Pandaria. As an entrance raid, it did not drop tier pieces or the exclusive
Sha-Touched weapons
, but it did serve as a challenge to players while waiting for
Cœur de la peur
and
Terrasse Printanière
. Gear from Mogu'shan Vaults was also slightly lower level than the gear found from those raid instances.
Vaults has 6 bosses and a lot of asian-themed transmogs. One of the most coveted mounts in the game,
Rênes de serpent-nuage astral
, also drops there!
Check our Mogu'shan Vaults preview here, as well as pictures of all the transmogs in the raid!

The first ever Brewfest is here!
Starting a bit later than the usual time, Brewfest is WoW's holiday that is loosely based on the
bavarian Oktoberfest
, celebrated in many countries worldwide around October of each year.
Although Brewfest has happened every single year since then, people who attended the very first Brewfest have ways to prove it: People who obtained the
Bock de la fête des Brasseurs jaune
, available only in 2007 in the Yellow color, have the Feat of Strength
Bock de la fête des Brasseurs jaune
to show for it. Also only available in 2007,
Bélier de la fête des Brasseurs
is a unique-colored Ram mount.
Brewfest is on it's last days, but you can still check our guide here!
October 5th, 2007
On this day, a Toyota Tacoma commercial using WoW Machinima appeared at the first time, during an american college football game on the TV network CBS. It has since become a more underground meme, specially it's catchphrase,
Four Wheels of Fury!!!!
You can check the old commercial below!
Note: there is a broken thumbnail but the video still loads
Have you got lost in Karazhan? Or maybe you got some druken story from Brewfest? Let us know in the comments.
See you next week!
