The Love is in the Air event features a short quest linewhere you have to counter the plans of theCrown Chemical Company.

The event also gives you a number of daily quests that you can useto earn Love Tokens.

The quest line is straightforward and involves no complicated tasks, sowe will only give the names of the quests and indicate where they start andwhere they end. Completing the quest line will grant you the Dangerous Love achievement.

Every day, you can complete different daily quests for Love Tokens. Head to the Gala of Gifts and searchfor blue exclamation marks on your minimap to find the available daily quests.Additional daily quests can be completed in the areas accessed through theScenic Gateway Portal.

You can pick them up at the NPC standing close to the Scenic Gateway Portal.

Lovely Charm Bracelets and the old faction daily quests have allbeen removed from the game with the event's overhaul.

The boss encounter of the event (located in Shadowfang Keep)can be accessed by queuing for it in the Dungeon Finder or by speaking toSteamwheedle Shyster, located in the TradeDistrict of Stormwind City or near Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar.

The boss encounter consists in defeating Apothecary Hummel,Apothecary Baxter, and Apothecary Frye, whom your party will all facesimultaneously. The fight is simple and only takes a few seconds to complete.

The first time that you defeat the boss encounter, you will be grantedthe Tough Love achievement and you will be able to loot a Faded Lovely Greeting Card from Hummel. This starts theSomething is in the Air (and it Ain't Love) (Alliance / Horde) quest, which rewards somegold.

The first time that you defeat the boss encounter in a given day, you will begiven a Heart-Shaped Box, which has a chance to contain:

• 10 Love Tokens;
• Renewed Proto-Drake: Love Armor (Drakewatcher Manuscript);
• Forever-Lovely Rose;
• Vile Fumigator's Mask;
• Toxic Wasteling;
• The Heartbreaker;
• X-45 Heartbreaker.

Every time you defeat the boss encounter, Apothecary Hummel willdrop one of the following Neck items:

• Winking Eye of Love;
• Heartbreak Charm;
• Shard of Pirouetting Happiness;
• Sweet Perfume Broach;
• Choker of the Pure Heart.

The loot is item level 428 Adventurer gear in 2024.

The enemies have damaging spells that fit in one of two categories: Perfume(purple) or Cologne (green):

• Apothecary Hummel only has Perfume abilities;
• Apothecary Baxter only has Cologne abilities;
• Apothecary Frye has both Perfume and Cologne abilities.

Inside the area where you will be fighting, there are two cauldrons: Perfume Neutralizer makes you immune to Perfume attacks while Cologne Neutralizer makes you immune to Cologne attacks. Clickinga cauldron will create an item in your bags after a short cast time. Using thisitem is what gives you the immunity buff (which lasts 5 minutes).

With that in mind, the encounter is rather easy. Have one player takethe Perfume Neutralizer and keep aggro on Hummel. Have another playertake the Cologne Neutralizer and keep aggro on Baxter. The rest of thegroup can take either of the Neutralizers. By doing so, your groupwill only have to worry about moving out of thePerfume or Cologne void zones that Frye (who cannot be tanked) regularlyputs down.

Ideally, you will want to kill Hummel and Baxter first and finish withFrye.

In this section, we will run you through the many remaining achievements neededto complete the event's meta-achievement in 2024.

For completing I Pitied The Fool, you first need to buy 5 Love Fools.Each Love Fool costs 10 , so it is a good idea to go with a group offriends to do the achievement, each friend bringing one or two Love Fools.

Then, simply go to each of the locations mentioned in the achievement text,put down a Love Fool, target it, and /pity it.

For completing Lonely?, you first need to obtain a Buttermilk Delight, which you can find in a Box of Chocolates.This box can be bought from a Lovely Merchant for 10 . You mightalso need to buy a Romantic Picnic Basket, which costs 10 andcan be refunded if you manage not to use it.

Wait for your character and that of yourfriend to be buffed with Romantic Picnic before eating your pieceof Buttermilk Delight. Note that your friend only needs to sit down withyou for you to get the achievement, they do not need to also eat a ButtermilkDelight, unless they want to get the achievement.

Completing Sweet Tooth requires you to eat each of the followingcandies: Buttermilk Delight, Sweet Surprise, Dark Desire, Very Berry Cream. Each of them has an 80% chance to be containedin a Box of Chocolates, which can be bought from a Lovely Merchantfor 10 .

Note that from having done the Lonely?, you must already havecompleted the Buttermilk Delight objective and you probably also have obtainedsome of the other candies (if not all of them).
