Comment by Frazley Is this Diablo event going to be yearly like the Diablo event in D3? I hope to get the Tome of Town Portal toy, just want to know if I can hold onto these through the year if I miss getting them. Comment by dialtke "Yep, just to confirm the The Cow King can only be looted once per character. The rest of the goodies from the event can be obtained from the Treasure Goblins."\r

This means that if you want the additional items, you will need to farm the Treasure Goblins. Pretty easy since they spawn every few minutes in Dalaran Sewers. Comment by moosecat11 Such a short event for a big milestone. It may be a celebration for another game...but it's kind of a big thing that's easily missable if you're not currently around (especially for people taking a break before Nighthold). I hope it does come back in the future for those that miss it, since there's toys involved. Comment by mysticalos I feel like the diablo event could have been more. The tome didn't have a unique animation at all. it's literally just a hearthstone animation with a different name. Dark portal, etc have their own uniqueness and I expected same quality of tome of town portal.\r

Cow king didn't have chained lightning or anything menacing really.\r
\r
SOJs, where are they? Should have collected and sold them to vendors to pop uber diablo or at very least had transmogs of windforce\/etc you could buy for "30 sojs". Comment by Lolus Well, event is short but it takes 30 minutes. Town portal toy is a letdown, just a normal HS. Comment by moosecat11 Well, event is short but it takes 30 minutes.

A shame on that...but it IS +1 to my toy collection so I still want it. I'm luckily not away from the game so I'll manage, but I'm more frustrated for the people who are, missing out on achievements and toys is a bummer.

It'd be easier if anyone in the farm group tells you where the bloody goblins are before the zerg rush to kill them. *smh* Comment by Pupsader Town portal toy is a letdown, just a normal HS.

As a D2 fanboy I appreciate seeing the Town Portal icon, but admittedly that's about as meta as you can possibly get. Wish it was a blue portal.

If I worked for Blizzard I'd hire you. Comment by Greensmower1 Lmao... yes the Dalaran Sewers are a great place to find Treasure Goblins.... but also a great place to get killed trying to get to the goblin... I spent more time at Atonidas' Memorial than anything yesterday trying to get to the goblin\/portal... Comment by Interest That would explain why my attempts to do Cow King multiple times were yielding nothing. I don't really need anything from the event at this point but I guess I might hit up some Treasure Goblins from time to time.

Even if it comes around again, the Scrolls have the tag from the event, meaning they will disappear once it ends. Comment by kodora1316 Well, event is short but it takes 30 minutes. Town portal toy is a letdown, just a normal HS.\r

Agreed, I was all excited for this event. Then I finished it the first day. :( Oh, well, maybe at some point they'll update the hearth animation for the toy. Then I may just use it over my Innkeeper's Daughter. (I had to actually work for that so I like using it more) Comment by Tuvock I managed to collect the achievement, the guitar and the tome for this event but I wanted a character to beat the cow king to loot the polearm weapon thats available but it didn't drop so if the polearm hasn't dropped for this character, do I now have to get another character to try and get it or do the goblins drop this polearm weapon too? Comment by andreios "Would have been" doesn't sound very much like we have a lot of hope for a Warcraft film sequel. That's a shame - it was a decent film. I really thought the Chinese box office was going to justify it, since the US box office was so bizarrely disappointing. Comment by jjanchan Intriguing that Blizz throws an extra event in-game, and it serves as something new for some people to complain about =)\r
\r
If it never existed, no one would have any complaints about it. I get that implementation feedback is worthwhile, what with all the ganking issues, etc. - that's perfectly valid imo. However, people whining about the rewards is pretty unnecessary - I for one am thankful for two extra toys and an achievement that I wouldn't have otherwise! They didn't even have to do anything cross-game at all, but they did.\r
\r
As far as the event is concerned, I did hear somewhere that it would be coming back next year, but can't remember where I heard this. Comment by leowow Maybe if they would have added a small chance to loot Crown of Eternal Winter from the Cow King.

game companies can't do anything without somebody complaining about it. it's just how the internet rolls it seems these days (yes I'm technically "old" and remember when dial up modems existed)\r
\r
that video on stealth sound is interesting but it's just another reminder on how ground breaking technology wise WoW was in 2004 Comment by Coldleo My biggest fear is not getting the polearm and then Blizzard pulling an Arcanite Ripper on it.

Thank you, I used someone's suggestion from this thread and farmed them out. :)
