Patch 3.2.0a
Marvelous |
I've noticed a curious level of
silence about Brewfest 2009, which, according to most sources, is
starting Sept 20th (this Sunday).
Is this not on the PTR and do we not know what Coren Direbrew will
drop this year?

Indeed, Brewfest has been updated for
level 80, and you should see the return of some quests that went
missing last year. I'll be around should questions arise that I can
field. :) However, the changes aren't extensive enough to warrant a
round of PTR testing this time.

Q u o t e:
So, what's going to happen to the holidays during Cataclysm? Will
the people still celebrate?
In times of great change and difficulty, those little rituals can
bring a sense of security and bring people together, after all.
(Yes.)

Q u o t e:
1. Can you confirm or deny whether or not the Wopperwinger will be
sold for gold this year or tickets?
For our region, the quest should be back. :)
Q u o t e:
2. Can you confirm or deny whether any of the pieces of clothing
will be able to be sold back to the vendor for a ticket refund like
the one piece of clothing from Midsummer?
As the tickets are part of the token system I believe the refund
functionality will be there.
Q u o t e:
I just have one question for you that maybe you can clarify, I have
all the items the horseman drops (level 70 ones) I was wondering if
the items themselves will be updated to 80 versions, or will I have
to get a new 80 version through a drop (Helm is my favorite one in
the game and it would suck to have to roll against people for it
once again) If you can clarify this it would be great.
Any new items will be just that: new items that you will have to
acquire. It wouldn't be fair to those who haven't leveled since
they received those items to bump them up and potentially make them
unusable.

Q u o t e:
Would be nice if that drill machine I have on my rogue became BOA
this year...
That won't be happening, I'm afraid.
EDIT: I've answered that a couple times recently, but yes, the NPCs
don't care if you're a Bloodsail. Let's keep this related to
Brewfest, however, hm? :)

Q u o t e:
I'm curious, why wasn't Ahune updated?
As I answered then, Midsummer wasn't updated purely due to timing;
the later holidays didn't have that issue.
Q u o t e:
Will we be able to purchase the Brewfest Mounts, like during the
first Year of Brewfest.
No, but as others have pointed out, having the actual mount is no
longer required for the achievement; you need only transform your
mount with hops to get Have Keg, Will Travel. Due to this, I don't
believe the drop rate of the mounts changed from the rate it was
when Brewfest ended last year.
As for questions regarding additions and such, as I mentioned
earlier in the thread, there were no major changes or additions to
the holiday, simply an update to what was already there. This means
that Coren works the same way he did last year, and there are no
new pets or mounts. We hope you'll have a good time in any case.
:)
