Today is a cute “micro-holiday” – the Hatching of the Hippogryphs! It takes place in Feralas and you’ll get to celebrate and witness the hatching of said hippogryphs and even make a friend to perch on your shoulder for a day or more. While this is a small addition to the game, the little hippogryph on your shoulder is adorable.
So head on over to Feralas and check out the area to the west of the Ruins of Isildien to Frayfeather Highlands. There will be nests with eggs just waiting to hatch in them!
Read on below to check out more micro-holidays incoming.
