Battle for Azeroth Dungeon Event
This week's bonus event is the Battle for Azeroth Dungeon Event.

• All week long the final boss of each Battle for Azeroth Dungeon will drop an extra piece of loot.
• Pick up the quest Emissary of War from either your Adventure Journal or in your faction hub. Completing this quest rewards Cache of Dazar'alor Treasures which contains a piece of item level 400 Battle for Dazar'alor loot and a large sum of Azerite power.

The Battle for Azeroth Dungeons Bonus Event is underway!

This Week
All week, open Group Finder (default hotkey: I) to queue for any Battle for Azeroth dungeon on Normal or Heroic difficulty.

Alternatively, get a group of veteran dungeoneers together and travel to one of the Battle for Azeroth dungeons on Mythic difficulty:

• Atal’Dazar
• Temple of Sethraliss
• The Underrot
• The MOTHERLODE!!
• Freehold
• Shrine of the Storm
• Tol Dagor
• Waycrest Manor

Look for the following all week long:

• Chronicler Shoopa in Zuldazar or Chronicler Toopa in Boralus has a quest for you – Emissary of War. Or, if you forget to pick it up there, you can start it within the Adventure Journal.
  
  • Quest requirement: Complete 4 Battle for Azeroth dungeons on Mythic difficultly.
  • Rewards: One loot box containing a piece of gear from Heroic difficulty Battle for Dazar'alor.
• Passive bonus: The final boss in each dungeon drop additional loot on all difficulties (except Mythic Keystone difficulties.)

Every Week
The Bonus Events system consists of a rotating schedule of different activities, currently scheduled to run each week beginning on Tuesdays. Each Bonus Event grants a passive bonus to a particular game activity and offers a once-per-event quest with a noteworthy reward for accomplishing a related goal. The in-game calendar can serve as your one-stop reference for the event schedule. The Adventure Guide also offers a direct link to active Bonus Events, allowing you to easily accept any associated quests.

PvP Brawls - Deepwind Dunk

Can you even dunk? If you want to win this brawl, you’re going to need to work on your skills because Dunkball has come to Pandaria. You’ll race to claim balls from the map’s center, or northern, or southern mines, take them to your enemy’s base, and then go for a magnificent long range shot or go all in for the dunk.

Agreed. It's dumb.

As a side note, I'm a heroic raider that hasn't fully cleared heroic yet and already basically don't need any gear from it due to Mythic+ dropping 400 gear and being relatively easy.

[Zorachus]

I agree gear is very easy to come by today. I have been playing Battle for Alt's, much different than Legion, which was all Raiding and M+, now I am just doing alt's, mogs runs, old Surarmar questline, etc...and I play casually and a lot of my alts are i375-i385. I haven't Raided and barely run M+, but maybe once per week or none at all, and I still easily reached i385.

But have to remember since the new BoD raid, i385 isn't that special now, i385 is Normal Raid gear, and [H]eroic Raid gear drops i400+, and Mythic Raids i415+. In my eyes to be nicely geared in BfA now, you should be i400+, that's impressive.

Feels good man!

Fun times ahead!

[PlazaPlaza]

Gear is not that easy, Heroic gear etc. Is casual nowadays. So 390 is casual / not caring at all. The more serious players are around 400. I don't understand the complaints.
