The month of March is upon us, and the first breath of Spring is blowing across Azeroth. It smells faintly of fel, so we don’t advise breathing too deeply. There is much to see and do this month as we continue our battle against the Burning Legion. Read on to learn more.

Eye on ArchaeologyEvery two weeks, a new Archaeology quest in the Broken Isles is available from Archaeology trainer Dariness the Learned in Dalaran. These quests offer a wide variety of rewards, including gold, toys, and mounts—and who doesn’t want a ghost moose mount? You’ll just need to do a little digging for them.Obtain eight rare archaeological finds and you can earn the achievement
Scoperte rare, which rewards a new Artifact appearance.
Mostruosità scatenateEach week, one of 11 different world bosses appears on the Broken Isles. Killing eight of these will reward the Unleashed Monstrosities achievement. Just open the Group Finder (default “I”) and search for a group within the Premade Groups (Raids – Legion); with a little time and persistence, you’re bound to slay them all.
Did You Know?You can travel between major locations within Azeroth, Outland, and Draenor in many different ways. Beyond using flight paths, boats, and zeppelins, you can also use portals found in several locations. These portals become available depending on your level and the areas you’ve begun adventuring in.Setting your Hearthstone in a city that has access to multiple other locations via these portals will often save you travel time. Dalaran, for example, has portals available to both Alliance (Stormwind, Ironforge, Darnassus, and the Exodar) and Horde (Orgrimmar, Undercity, Thunder Bluff, and Silvermoon) capital cities as well as portals to the Vale of Eternal Blossoms in Pandaria.Mages also have access to portals that they can use for themselves or to open for others in their group to use. If you do manage to procure the services of one, make sure to tip generously or you may end up going somewhere unexpected.
It’s the Little ThingsAzeroth is filled with opportunities to engage in a little whimsy. One of these is right within Thunder Totem in High Mountain (
Suonata di gruppo). You’ll need to make sure your sound is on then head down into the Hall of Chieftains. Once there, stand near Mayla HighMountain and . . . jump. Each time you jump, you’ll “bang” the drum that’s right beneath your feet and hear it reverberate in the hall. Make up your own rhythm and enjoy the moment before heading back into battle.
