WoW: Missed Anniversary Achievement Now Earnable

World of Warcraft's Detective Title Remains Accessible: A Guide to Finding Alyx and the Missing Celebration Crates

World of Warcraft players can still earn the coveted Detective title and pursue the elusive Incognitro Felcycle mount, even after the 20th-anniversary event concluded. This is thanks to the relocation of Alyx, the key NPC for the Guest Relations mystery questline.

Alyx, a Lightforged Draenei, has been moved to Dornogal, specifically to the hot springs area northwest of the Delver's Headquarters, near the Foundation Hall. They now hold the title of "Volunteer Event Coordinator, Among Other Things" and still possess their crucial clue board detailing the locations of 11 missing Celebration Crates.

Obtaining the Detective Title:

1. Locate Alyx: Find Alyx in Dornogal, between the Delver's Headquarters and the stairs leading to the Foundation Hall.
2. Gather the Crates: Examine Alyx's clue board to discover the locations of the 11 hidden Celebration Crates. (Note: Players must be level 10 to begin Celebration Crate quests, but level 68 is required to access Dornogal.)
3. Claim Your Rewards: Return six crates to Alyx for the "Crate Insurance Agent" achievement, and all eleven for the "No Crate Left Behind," "Azeroth's Greatest Detective" achievements, and most importantly, the Detective title. This title unlocks the Incognitro mount questline.

Post-Anniversary Accessibility:

While the main Guest Relations questline is no longer active, the relocation of Alyx ensures players can still complete the crate collection quest and earn the Detective title indefinitely. This prevents players from being locked out of obtaining the Incognitro mount. Unfortunately, other achievements tied to the Guest Relations storyline, such as "Assistant to the Assistant Guest Relations Manager" and "I Saved the Party and All I Got Were These Lousy Hats," are now unobtainable, along with their associated rewards.

The persistence of the Detective title questline demonstrates Blizzard's commitment to ensuring players can still access certain content even after limited-time events conclude. However, the removal of the broader Guest Relations quests highlights the ephemeral nature of some event-specific content.
