One of the coolest new features of World of Warcraft: The War Within is the addition of Warbands. With the latest patch 11.1, players can now acquire four new Warband Camp backgrounds that will display on the login screen.
How to unlock all World of Warcraft 11.1 Warband Camp backgrounds
Each of the four new Warband Camp backgrounds has its own unique ways to unlock them. First, here are the four new Warband Camp backgrounds with the World of Warcraft Season 2 11.1 patch:
- Ohn’ahran Overlook
- Cultists’ Quay
- Freywold Spring
- Gallagio Grand Gallery
How to unlock Ohn’ahran Overlook
The Ohn’ahran Overlook Warband Camp background is the easiest of the four to unlock, and simply requires you to login to World of Warcraft once the Season 2 11.1 Patch update is live, which it now is! This is essentially a freebie background for everyone to change it up from Season 1 right out of the gate.
How to unlock Cultist’s Quay
Next is the Cultist’s Quay Warband Camp background which can be purchased from Reno Jackson in Dornogl using the new Undercoin currency you acquire from completing Delves. This Warband Camp background is basically a cosmetic reward you can opt to spend your Undercoins on. You will unlock access to purchase the Cultist’s Quay Warband Camp background by progressing through the Season 2 Delver’s Journey from Brann.
How to unlock Freywold Spring
The Freywold Spring Warband Camp background is tied to the Meta Achievement All That Khaz. This requires you to complete six other individual achievements in order to complete the All That Khaz Meta Achievement. Interestingly enough, if you’ve been actively playing World of Warcraft: The War Within during Season 1, you more than likely already have the required achievements to complete the Meta Achievement and unlock the Freywold Spring Warband Camp background. Here are the required achievements:
- Allied Races: Earthen (Complete the prerequisites to unlock the Earthen Allied Race)
- Khaz Algar Diplomat (Reach Max Renown with Council of Dornogal, The Assembly of the Deeps, Hallowfall Arathi, and Severed Threads)
- Khaz Algar Flight Master (Visit each Flight Master in Khaz Algar)
- Khaz Algar Glyph Hunter (Collect all the Glyphs in all four zones in Khaz Algar)
- Khaz Algar Lore Hunter (Discover all the Lore Objects (also known as Treasures) in Khaz Algar
- Loremaster of Khaz Algar (Complete every zone’s side quest chain including The Isle of Dorn, The Ringing Deeps, Hallowfall, and Azj-Kahet)
How to unlock Gallagio Grand Gallery
Like the Freywold Spring, the Gallagio Grand Gallery Warband Camp background is tied to a Meta Achievement, this time called Going Goblin Mode. These achievements however are tied to the new Undermine zone, so you will have to complete them in Season 2 and will not have them unlocked from Season 1. Here are all the things you must do to get the Going Goblin Mode achievement and unlock the Gallagio Grand Gallery Warband Camp background:
- Adventurer of Undermine (Complete 10 Special Encounters -by killing 10 Rares- Across Undermine)
- Nine-Tenths of the Law (Successfully unlock all five Muff’s Auto-Lockers throughout Undermine)
- Read Between the Lines (Read all 7 Lore Books in Undermine)
- That Can-Do Attitude (Find enlightenment by cleaning the streets of Undermine. This requires you to kick Discarded Cans 25 times)
- Treasures of Undermine (Discover all 15 Undermine Treasures)
- You’re My Friend Now (Mkae friends with all 5 Grabbable Rats in Undermine)
