As part of the Guest Relations Secret Event, there are several Celebration Crates scattered around Azeroth for players to find. Finding these crates is required for the Crate Insurance Agent and No Crate Left Behind achievements. Each Celebration Crate you bring to Alyx will also net you 5 Bronze Celebration Tokens on your first character or 5 Timewarped Badges on subsequent characters.
Clues to locating these crates can be obtained by speaking with Alyx after you have completed the Guest Relations introductory quests. Choose the dialogue option to ask her for her hardest puzzles. You will then be able to pick up notes from the bulletin board next to her that give you hints at where you can find the crates. You won’t need these clues if you know where to look for the crates, though, so feel free to skip this step if you’re following this guide!
Below are the locations of all of the Celebration Crates that have been found so far. More crates will be found as the event progresses, so check back later as we add new ones. There are expected to be 11 crates in total.
Battered Celebration Crate
- Clue: 2 Torn Notes looted from Scrap of Paper on the ground (one is beside Fiona’s caravan – 61.3, 50.9; one is behind the Black Market Liaison underneath the Fashion Frenzy stage – 63.3, 49.5)
- Location: Rivenwood in Howling Fjord (29.4, 6.4)
You can follow the coordinates from the two Torn Notes using your Tricked-Out Thinking Cap, or you can skip ahead to the final location using this guide. If you follow the thinking cap, the first location will be at the Conquest Hold Gate in Grizzly Hills, and then you’ll stop at a tree stump southwest of Forest’s Edge Outpost.
The final location will take you to a cave just inside the border of Howling Fjord where you’ll find the Battered Celebration Crate tucked between the rocks at the cave entrance (29.4, 6.4.).
Dirt-Caked Celebration Crate
- Clue: Dirt-Caked Ransom Note (from the notice board beside Alyx)
- Location: Karazhan Crypts in Deadwind Pass (22.5, 83.7)
Enter the Karazhan Crypts through the entrance west of the main castle (39.9, 73.4). Follow the path down and take the first right. Follow the curving path down, staying to the left until you reach the Forgotten Crypt, a large chamber with a hilly dirt floor. Go straight across this room and swim across The Upside-down Sinners to reach The Slough of Dispair. You’ll find the Dirt-Caked Celebration Crate in the back left corner of this room.
Hazy Celebration Crate
- Clue: Unknown; discovered early without the clue
- Location: Kodo Graveyard in Desolace (54.1, 58.1)
Travel to the Kodo Graveyard in Desolace and look for a glowing green spot between some small trees (54.1, 58.1). You must be a ghost to see the crate here. The easiest way to do this is to fall off your flying mount and run from the nearby graveyard. Be sure to loot the Hazy Celebration Crate before you rez!
Sandy Celebration Crate
- Clue: Sandy Ransom Note (from the notice board beside Alyx)
- Location: Sunken Dig Site in Thousand Needles (64.9, 84.4) and then a patrolling vendor in Azsuna
Head to the Sunken Dig Site in Thousand Needles and dive straight down (66.2, 86.2). You’ll find the entrance to an underwater silithid cave. Follow the tunnel down, staying to the right until you reach a dead end (64.9, 84.4). There you’ll find a Water-Resistant Receipt of Sale on the ground that you can loot to get a Water-Resistant Receipt. You must have this item to get the crate.
Now head to Azsuna in the Broken Isles and look for Vashti the Wandering Merchant. He patrols the northeast road between The Ruined Sanctum and Farondale. If you have the receipt, he’ll sell you a Sandy Celebration Crate for 500 gold.
Soggy Celebration Crate
- Clue: Damp Ransom Note (from the notice board beside Alyx)
- Location: The Dive Bar in Zuldazar (54.2, 54.2)
Head to The Dive Bar, which is underwater in the river southwest of Dazar’alor in Zuldazar, and look for Nikto (54.3, 54.5). Buy a Clam Digger from him for 2 gold 50 silver. Then look for a clam with the name Gerald on a shelf above and behind Nikto. Interact with Gerald and you’ll be able to use the Clami Digger to open his shell and reveal the Soggy Celebration Crate inside. Loot it and return to Alyx for your reward.
Waterlogged Celebration Crate
- Clue: Sun-Baked Ransom Note
- Location: Underwater off the coast of Tanaris (69.2, 68.6)
Go southeast of the Caverns of Time and look for two underwater buildings off the coast (69.2, 68.6). Swim down and enter the taller of the two. You’ll see an elevator moving up and down; swim up to the top floor through the elevator opening and look for the Waterlogged Celebration Crate behind one of the beds. Be careful here, as the elevator is known to crash the game, and it’s also easy to get stuck against the ceiling.
