Super Squirt Day to Become a Much More Frequent Bonus Event

recent group interviewAdrian from But Why Tho?Adrian from But why though?:
With how fresh the Dragonriding system feels in terms of the physics and the talent trees and the customizations, are there any talks of implementing a rework or an update for the pet battle system to bring a new dynamic to that, either in Dragonflight or or beyond?

Jeremy:
Pet battles is one of those awesome evergreen systems that we would like to, definitely make it easier for players to onboard into. I think we have some plans for looking into that and I'd like to announce today, but we would definitely like to make pet battles continue to be an ongoing evergreen system, that is easy for players to get into and play with. One of the advancements that we did make to the pet battle I know for hardcore pet battlers, in Dragonflight is that the pet battle bonus event is no longer exactly tied with the week that it was. It's now a bonus to other bonus events so that you can have a Super Squirt Day more often. It will no longer be a Super Squirt Day in like two and a half years. It'll come up more frequently.SquirtPet Battle Bonus Eventthe overlap is very rare

Comment by SwiffzWhat a title. XDDComment by octnoirSquirt is pretty good if:

1. You're new without a large collection

2. You don't have Battle Pet Bandage

Personally I think Legion Pet WQs are better. XuFu has a nice list of Legion WQ pet battles - they are often faster but they take bandages. However Battle Pet Bandage are cheap - just 5 Polished Pet Charm for 25 of them. Squirt still means you need a Level 3 Garrison which you need to quest and wait for, and then pay 5k gold though the upgrade is permanent.

Doing Legion WQs tends to be quicker and happens more often in the long run. And few WQs get you enough Polished Pet Charm for a full pet leveling day.

Of note Snail Fight! and Fight Night: Sir Galveston are really good and come up more often than Squirt do during Pet Battle Bonus Event.Comment by TheGoldenElmI didn't even know this was a thing. Shows how much I pay attention to pet battle stuff. :PComment by unclevinny

Unless it was already done and I didn't know about it, it would have been a good time to move Squirt outside of the garrison to an open world location more easily accessible by newer players.Comment by BenchiePlease Blizzard don't replace the title with fruit bowls.

With the 2nd part of the prepatch, they reshuffled all the events again and made the mentioned change to Pet Battle events. Now both EU and US will indeed get (relatively) regular occurrences again. (Every 50 or 150ish days)

But like others have said, unless you're saving up Pet Charms, Legion Pet WQs are more frequently available, though you can't plan ahead for them. The linked Reddit thread has a link to a Google spreadsheet that will tell you what days the events will be for the next 12 years. (barring any further changes)Comment by Rudy199What a title. XDDComment by gh0sth4ndWhat a title. XDDComment by AnckLeveling pets through mission tables is faster anyway if you have a few alts set up. Can get a thousand badges a week with no effort.Comment by Adaren18The legion WQ's are significantly better due to the fact that they still provide exp for your toon as well as your pet. So if you are trying to up your stable its a pretty quick and easy way to level an alt as well.Comment by trestIf you don’t have a level 3 garrison, you can group with someone who does (with them as group leader) and visit their garrison (right-click their portrait to bring up the menu where you can select the visit command, whatever it’s actually called).Comment by dabone1337Serious question here: with the amount of charms you are getting thrown at with the SL mission table and the option to buy a lvl25 boost with them.... Why should anyone care about a pet battle exp bonus anymore?Comment by RivuxPerfect day to go visit SylvanasComment by kraightThis is a great news, i love it!Comment by XaleaWe used to have this when I was in college. It... didn't mean the same thing though.
