Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning’s newest live event is called the Keg End and will be running December 17th – January 5th. All armies of WAR are invited to celebrate the Dwarf New Year festival which will be filled with the things that those short, hairy little men like the best: beer, boasting and things that explode. With plenty of things to do whether you are part of Order or Destruction, you can look forward to new ways to earn drops and elite Influence rewards and fireworks will be prevalent as well as capital city pub crawls.
Looking for glory and bragging rights? Then you may wish to search the battlefields for the Golden Stein to earn the blessing of Grimnir himself and partake in its frothy goodness. However, watch your flank as the Ogres have caught the scent of blood and beer and they want both very much because, well that is just what ogres do. Also, in Realm vs. Realm, the Keg End live event also introduces a new emote – /boast – to taunt your adversaries. You can also grab a free beer and /toast your comrades-in-arms to receive special Tome of Knowledge unlocks.
