4 mugs to be used are nearby on the table in the tavern

Kommentar von Woodymakespizza

If you leave and get lost, the round of drinks to be handed out at the mugs on the table, between the bar and the stairs.

/way #2215 42.71, 55.64 Mugs on the Table

Kommentar von gobrian

This is nice! Finally some real atmosphere in new xpacs

Kommentar von doublej42

For me selecting the quest option did nothing but actually buying the item from the bartender worked. The 4 mugs on the bar did nothing.

Kommentar von Anchorian

So I, the lowly "champion" of the Alliance, drop my coin to treat the leaders of the Alliance to a round of drinks, and they just sit and stare at it like it's poison!

smh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is the dumbest quest I have ever done. I've been playing this game for 20 years and this is singlehandedly the absolute worst-designed one. I can't think of anything that compares.

The quest begins with three central characters doing an RP walk to a tavern — which is obnoxious in itself since it takes them forever (they're walking) but there is also no destination map marker. You won't know where this tavern is yet. So you have no choice but to awkwardly move along with them, slowly, in an expansion where your character is already Lord Awkward... standing around in the background of any given cinematic, wordless and expressionless, while actual characters engage with the plot.

Eventually the trio arrives and one character (the one you are least likely to like, in my honest opinion) says "Hey <player> can you buy us drinks?" This isn't a practical problem; you will have the ten silver. But considering so many other quests in TWW offer you some kind of choice, it's jarring to see a character basically make a demand of you that amounts to absolute mooching. You've already been defending this !@#$% from trash mobs and doing everything for them. They're objectively a complete loser without you. Yet nobody's going anywhere until you buy the drinks.

Then — and I don't know if this is required, it seemed to be; I had to pick the dialogue options before I could buy the drink item, — you have to talk to each character. There's three characters. One has two dialogue trees, the other two have a single dialogue tree. There is exactly one sentiment you can express. This is jarring because another quest in the region lets you literally determine if a character graduates with honors and pilots her own airship or not. This sequence feels like what someone who has never roleplayed believes RP looks like.

And the sentiment you can share with these characters is shameless coddling. Players have expressed pretty openly that Anduin is a huge whiner throughout the expansion. Your one option is to tell him (as well as everyone else) that they did nothing wrong and it's all going to be okay. Why? A sizable chunk of the player base would probably use this opportunity to tell him that he's lost his nuts, he's failed as a king, he needs to nut up and to stop disappointing the memory of his actually-heroic and formidable dad.

The icing on the cake for me is a literal Put the drinks down on the table objective though. What am I, a waiter? Could you imagine playing a pro-Horde orc or forsaken and your adventuring through Azeroth has led to you literally serving drinks to the (completely ineffectual) King of Stormwind? You've gone back in time to kill Archimonde, watched Sylvanas rise from the dead after being shot in the back, saw the world unite against your warchief (twice) and helped put Onyxia's head on a spit, yet this is what it amounts to.

Give me a break. This is awful.

Just buy Eine Runde Getränke from Nalina Eisensang and click the 4 mugs on the table.

Kommentar von ImaginationCake

gotta say this one hits different as a feral druid. see if i buy Faerin a round of drinks again....

Kommentar von Himela

The mugs are all on one table to your left looking to the inkeeper.

Kommentar von Pakheth

Faerin's comment on not being a cat person to Anduin is kinda hilarious with Stormwind's logo being a lion.

Kommentar von Flanell

I coudn't tell why I dislike Faerin, but now comes the answer: she hates cats. Boo Faerin, boo!

Kommentar von Doloria

4 semi-transparent mugs are on the first floor table as you walk in the Inn. Anduin, Alleria and Faerin are sitting at a huge table. Before you can click on the mugs (which turns them solid) you have to buy Eine Runde Getränke from the Innkeeper for 10 silver.

Take a seat, there’s a mug for you.

Then I found I couldn’t get out of the seat. A message said “You can’t leave yet.” So I clicked on each character to hear what they had to say. Still couldn’t get up. The red Exit vehicle arrow released me.

If you don’t go directly to the Inn and the group isn’t sitting at the first floor table near the Innkeeper when you arrive, they’re gone. Abandon the quest and return to the Zeppelin landing to pick it up again. (The location is shown as 3 dots in a circle on the map.)

Kommentar von violetta

the cheapest drink costs 3 gold 50 silver for five, making 70 silver each

even if the round of drinks is only for the one table and not the whole bar (which goes contrary to every movie ever but is more true to real life) that's still 10 silver for four drinks

four drinks for two and a half silver each or five for seventy silver each... whoever came up with the prices had clearly been sampling the booze

Kommentar von Sethdarkus999

As of 13OCT24 this quest appears to be bugged if within warmode.

I done this 8 times so far, 9th time on my hunter the mugs aren't spawning nor is the quest getting credit upon entering the inn.

Small Indi company change my mind

edit: appears to be resolved for now, something will break something all ways does

Kommentar von DaemoniKira

To the guys who don't get it:

This quest, including buying a round of drinks for your friends, serving them to said friends *gasp!*, and asking said friends how they're holding up amidst the horrors of Hallowfall... all of this is to show some basic camaraderie among new and old friends.

I can't imagine being upset being asked by my friends to buy a round of drinks after a tough-ass day, and worse, being upset that I actually have to bring the drinks over and put them down in front of my friends. It's really no problem at all. I've fought monsters and bosses that made me want to scream in frustration -- buying an entire round of drinks for 10s and then plunking them down in front of my friends and allies is nothing... in fact, it's literally the least I could do to show any smidge of camaraderie.

Alas, there will always be someone to complain about everything, no matter what it is. You can't please everyone. I get that. But I really just don't get the sheer hostility towards a quest like this -- it truly just sounds like ego to me: "I'm far too important to be acting nice to people who are complete losers without me."

Just my thoughts.

P.S.: I absolutely love Anduin's character arc in TWW. I find it extremely realistic and I find myself able to very easily empathize with him.
