WoW Announces Extension for Anniversary Event Currency Use

Summary

• World of Warcraft will automatically convert any remaining Bronze Celebration Tokens into Timewarped Badges in Patch 11.1.
• The conversion rate is set at 1:20, meaning players will receive 20 Timewarped Badges for each unused Bronze Celebration Token.
• Players should log in after the patch's release to benefit from the automatic conversion of their tokens.

World of Warcraft is set to automatically convert any leftover Bronze Celebration Tokens from the 20th anniversary event into Timewarped Badges with the release of Patch 11.1. This means that players who didn't use all their tokens before the event concluded will receive 20 Timewarped Badges for each Bronze Celebration Token remaining in their World of Warcraft characters' inventories.

The 20th anniversary event, which lasted 11 weeks, allowed players to accumulate hundreds of Bronze Celebration Tokens. These tokens were used to purchase revamped Tier 2 sets and various anniversary collectibles. Any unused tokens could be exchanged for Timewarped Badges, the currency used in Timewalking events.

With the event now over, World of Warcraft is assisting players who still have Bronze Celebration Tokens. According to a forum post by WoW community manager Linxy, any characters with these tokens in their currency tabs will see them automatically converted into Timewarped Badges at a 1:20 ratio, the same rate used during the event. This conversion will occur the first time players log in after Patch 11.1 is released.

World of Warcraft Bronze Celebration Token Auto-Conversion in Patch 11.1

Once the 20th anniversary event ended on January 7, Bronze Celebration Tokens became obsolete. Blizzard has confirmed that they will not reuse this currency, even if the revamped Tier 2 sets return in future events. The automatic conversion ensures that players who didn't spend all their tokens won't be left with a useless entry in their Currency tabs.

While Patch 11.1 does not yet have a confirmed release date, it is expected to launch around February 25. This date aligns with the end of the second Plunderstorm event (January 14 to February 17) and the Turbulent Timeways event (running through February 24). It also fits with Blizzard's recent release schedule, considering the holidays.

Unfortunately, the conversion of Bronze Celebration Tokens will likely occur after the second Turbulent Timeways event concludes. This seven-week event covers all Timewalking campaigns, offering numerous opportunities to spend Timewarped Badges. However, since the rewards available with Timewarped Badges are not disappearing, players can save their badges for future Timewalking events.
