FAQ

What is the Dastardly Duos event in The War Within?

Dastardly Duos is a brand-new 5-person instanced event launching with Season 2's 11.1.5 patch of The War Within. In this event, players enter the "Dastardly Dome" to face animatronic versions of past bosses. It features a unique scoring system based on damage, speed, and avoiding deaths, and a rotating pool of up to ten bosses introduced over several weeks.

What kinds of rewards can I earn from Dastardly Duos?

Dastardly Duos offers a rich variety of rewards. Completing instances grants Warbound Veteran-track gear. Weekly quests from Vinnie Sweets provide Dastardly Prize Purses containing Champion-track armor, along with unique toys (like the Dastardly Banner or Winner's Podium), pets (Spicy Mean-Ball), and even a mount (Tyrannotort's Treat) from specific quest milestones.

Is Dastardly Duos challenging, and what makes it unique?

Dastardly Duos offers a customizable challenge. Players can queue with up to 5 people, with any unfilled spots automatically filled by NPC Volunteers that function like Follower Dungeon NPCs. For those seeking a greater challenge, players can opt to dismiss these Volunteers and enter the arena solo. The event is unique for its scoring system, combat buffs (food/drink options from Wodin), and bonus mechanics (like Cherry Bombs) that encourage optimized play.
