You know the drill by now. There’s a new set of Twitch drops that are going to be available starting May 2nd where if you watch 4 hours of Twitch content from any streamer in the World of Warcraft category with your Bnet and Twitch accounts linked you’ll get some sweet free in-game items!
From May 2nd through May 9th watching 4 hours will net you the Ethereal Portal, a hearthstone replacement that adds a cool portal effect to the cast. And then for a bonus there’s also a mount you can get from May 9th through May 17th by watching another 4 hours during that time period. The mount this time around is going to be the Blazing Hippogryph, a real hot commodity!
Check out the full post below for further details and a preview of what the in-game swag looks like.
