How many dailies are there? I did the initial set on Sunday but now when I look there are only 2 (the ones where you ride the ram into Ironforge). Should there be more?

Ride a ram to deliver kegs, ride a ram to announce brewers, and defend brewfest against the dwarves (dwarves attack every 30 min).

I can only manage 9 trips on a ram to deliver kegs, so I can only get 43 tokens a day. I hear the delivery daily is easier on alliance side, though, and you can easily get 12.

I managed 4 trips today, but it was taking half a minute at each end to get Keg due to lag.

But yeah, it's about 15 sec either way normally.

I usually get 11 trips horde side, and the last one usually cuts it pretty close.

This is the route I use. I found the video while looking for possible better routes. I'ver heard there are people who average 15+ trips, but at this point I really can't see how that's possible.

I get around 20 usually (alliance)...

There's a daily to kill Coren Direbrew, but you don't get tokens for it, just epic gear (that's not very epic).

I average 23 kegs (46 tokens) a day. A full 15 minute run using the single barrel in Kharanos has been achieved without speed hacks (That's 31 seconds per keg), but I'm not that good.

I only got 7 today because of server lag. Sometimes I had to circle the goblins twice to get/drop off a keg :(

Hate this artificial cockblock.

I hate it so much when the apple barrels don't proc as you ride by. So infuriating.

I got 32 barrels on this morning's Keg Run. I have my path down to requiring only 1 Apple Bushel either way.

I'm four tokens short of finishing this dumb thing as of today, but at least I won't have to do the barrel run again.

Unless there's something I'm missing entirely, it would be impossible to do this horde side. You have to use barrel #3 (by the rock) and you can't make it all the way to the beginning and back to it without getting the exhausted debuff. I use barrel #1 (by the tent) and three. Barrel #2 is too far out of the way, and #4 is a little out of the way and a bit passed the guy that throws you the barrels, making them both non-options.

Got 9 trips done today, with getting exhausted once. I ran right by a barrel, closer to it than the guy next to me, but the barrel hit him and not me. Awesome how that works sometimes.

That video linked earlier is probably the best way to do it Horde-side.

I've discovered that you can skip the apples at either end of the route. The two middle apples are enough. I don't know if it's any better than using the rock one and the one by the barrel turn-in NPC at the start. My guess is it's slightly worse. It's definitely a lot riskier.

If I'm correct in this way being worse, I can't see a better way to do it Horde side.

Gonna see how many I can get today. Hoping for 11. Either way I'm only 8 tokens short of Brewmaster (and my drake!) but I'm curious now. :p

edit: Well, good news and bad news! Had apples not kick in once, leading to exhaustion. Also had the guy not take my barrel for tokens, leading to me having to swoop back around to get apples and stop by him again. I still made 9 trips despite those problems. 10 would've been easy. I'm not sure on 11. I think I'll stockpile some tokens for brewfest next year in case they add new fun stuffs. Though no more than two stacks of tokens, lest I stretch bank space too far. :( So I shall be streamlining this racing process some more!

I like this event, I actually renewed my account for it. It is my favorite along with Midsummer's.

Anyway, I was suprised as the quality of loot Corwin drops for the simplicity of the encounter. Along with the Ony revamp, it makes for a nice update for some vintage items.

Just like last year, he's dropping badge-level trinkets. The big surprise this year is the ilvl 226 mace he drops.
