Earlier this week saw the WCCCs first Pet-a-Palooza, an extravagant event centred around our little, often forgotten, friends; Battle Pets.
The evening opened in the magical Whispering Forest in Western Tirisfal. Within the Faerie circle surrounded by woodland creatures and fey dragons, we began our Pet-a-Palooza!
We kicked off with a pet auction of some powerful level 25 pets. The bidding was heated and after many rounds, each member walked away with a new pet or two. The proceeds went directly to the guild to put towards, raiding, prizes and, of course, more pets!
After everyone was acquainted with their new companions, we moved on to the vanity competition! Several categories were brought out and for each, the participants had to pick a pet that they thought best suited the category. They then had a few sentences to explain why they chose that pet. Categories included, “A Night in a Haunted House”, “At a Tea-party”, and the combined transmog & pet round, “Pirates!”
Many excellent pets and stories were shared and the winners received first pick from the guild prize bank.
Next up, who is the very best? This heated lvl 25 double-elimination battle tournament saw some incredible pets go head-to-head in some intensely close battles!
We closed the evening with some random category lvl 1 battles. This involved rolling 3 times before the battle to randomly pick 3 pet categories, such as Dragonkin, Humanoid etc. The two contestants then had to construct a lvl 1 team with a pet from each of these categories and battle it out!
Overall the event was a great success and thoroughly entertaining! Everyone had a brilliant time and we got to see some amazing pet collections, we’ll definitely be running this event again soon!
