20th Anniversary World Bosses

Guest Relations Secret Event

WoW’s 20th Anniversary celebration has attracted some uninvited guests, and it’s your job to clear them out! Six World Bosses from previous World of Warcraft expansions are making their appearance during the event. They each drop some unique gear and a few even drop mounts.

Level Range & Lockout

You must be at least level 15 to face off against these World Bosses. Each one has a loot lockout that resets once per day, so there’s not much point in defeating them any more often than that.

Daily Quest

The daily quest The Originals requires killing three of these bosses and gives 1 Bronze Celebration Goodie Bag and 3 Bronze Celebration Tokens as well as some gold and experience. This quest can be picked up from Izaik Kadarov at the celebration grounds in Tanaris (62.3, 51.8).

Achievements

There are four achievements to be earned by defeating World Bosses during the 20th Anniversary Event.

A Gatecrasher: Defeat Archavon the Stonewatcher, Doomwalker, or Sha of Anger.
The Gatecrashers: Defeat all three World Bosses in Tanaris – Archavon the Stonewatcher, Doomwalker, and Sha of Anger.
An Original: Defeat Azuregos, Lord Kazzak, or any of the four Dragons of Nightmare.
The Originals: Defeat all of the World Bosses outside Tanaris – Azuregos, Lord Kazzak, and all four Dragons of Nightmare.

World Bosses

There are six World Bosses available during the 20th Anniversary Event. Five are static: Archavon the Stone Watcher, Azuregos, Doomwalker, Lord Kazzak, and Sha of Anger are always available and always spawn in the same general area. The sixth boss is one of the four Dragons of Nightmare: Emeriss, Lethon, Taerar, or Ysondre, who each spawn in a different location on different days.

Three of these bosses are found in Tanaris while the other three are scattered across Azeroth. You can spot them on the world map or zone map by looking for the World Boss icon.
