Quest 4 - WoW 18th Anniversary Time of Reflection: Questions and Answers

For several years now, World of Warcraft's birthday has been celebrated in the game itself. This event is a little different every year, but there are similarities. At the 16th anniversary of World of Warcraft, we will also be put to the test with questions about history. Every day, historian Llore (Alliance) and historian Ju'pa ask us a new question about the history of World of Warcraft's past.

In the daily task "Time of Reflection" we are asked a question about World of Warcraft and can choose one of four answers. The client for the daily quest A Time for Reflection is located in the Caverns of Time. We get there quite quickly via a portal in the portal room of Stormwind and Orgrimmar. Fortunately, if the answer was wrong, the task did not fail. Instead, we are asked another question. As a reward for a correct answer, we receive 5 time-distorted badges every day. If you would like to farm time-distorted badges, it is best to do this daily task with all your characters. Since this birthday event runs until November 22nd, you can farm Timewarped Badges here quickly and easily.
