Twitch Drop window and reward
Blizzard has announced a new World of Warcraft Twitch Drop that grants the Cuddly Gold-Colored Grrgle Housing decor item. According to Blizzard, the campaign runs from October 13 at 10:00 am PDT until November 3 at 10:00 am PST.
To earn the item, Blizzard says viewers need to watch 4 hours of eligible World of Warcraft content on Twitch while the Drops campaign is active.
What MacGaming.com readers should know
From a practical standpoint, this is a low-lift cosmetic unlock for anyone already following WoW streams. The key steps (and the ones most likely to trip people up) are account linking and claiming: you must link your Twitch and Battle.net accounts, watch eligible streams for progress, and then manually claim the Drop on Twitch before it will be delivered in-game.
Blizzard also notes that delivery can take up to 24 hours after claiming. If you play across regions, Blizzard advises logging into the Battle.net region where you want the item delivered, as the first region you log into after claiming is where it will be sent.
Eligibility, linking, and devices
Per Blizzard, you can link accounts via Battle.net connections at https://account.battle.net/connections. Blizzard adds that if you’ve changed your password or modified Twitch/Battle.net account settings, you may need to relink, and relinking triggers a 7-day cooldown before you can link a different Twitch account.
Blizzard says Drops progress and claiming are supported via a PC/Mac web browser and the Twitch app on Android or iOS. Console and smart TV Twitch apps do not support Drops.
Buying extra copies in-game (after you earn it)
Once you’ve claimed the Drop, Blizzard says additional copies of the decor can be purchased from these in-game vendors:
Dennia Silvertongue in Silvermoon City, Tuuran in Stormwind, and Gabbi in Orgrimmar (near the Trading Post).
Important limitations and availability notes
Blizzard states the item is not available in World of Warcraft Classic titles, requires an active World of Warcraft subscription or game time, and that decor placement is limited to the Housing feature, which requires access to World of Warcraft: Midnight.
Blizzard also reserves the right to change, pause, or cancel the Drop if needed due to technical or other issues.
