In World of Warcraft, the time has come once again to lay down your weapons; collect lucky charm bracelets and celebrate love – as part of the Love is in the Air event! This saccharine and Valentine’s Day-inspired holiday is one of the most popular in WoW, partly because of the extremely rare mount: the Heartbreaker X-45 (formerly known as the Great Love Missile).
In World of Warcraft, war is once again taking a back seat to the celebration of love. The reason for this is the annual event Love is in the Air, which is inspired by Valentine’s Day. Lots of tasks, achievements, pets, toys and of course the bosses of the chemical factory Krone in Castle Schattenfang are waiting for our heroes. And let’s not forget the heartbreaker X-45 (formerly known as Great Love Rocket) – probably the most farmed mount in WoW.
The inhabitants of the capital cities are also busy celebrating and getting carried away by the festive mood. Here are diligently exchanged expressions of love and gifts. In addition, of course, festive decorations have been made and countless goblins with small bows and arrows fly through the streets on the hunt for contemporaries who are not yet in love.
WoW: Love is in the air – News 2022
2022 is already the second Love is in the Air, which we celebrate in the beyond WoW (buy now ) Shadowlands. Therefore, not particularly many adjustments were to be expected. And that’s exactly how it turned out. Only the item level of the necklaces, which you can capture during the event from the bosses of the Chemical Manufacture Crown, was raised, so that they are at least halfway suitable for the one or other Twink. Although with level 184 they probably won’t be for very long. (Note: the tooltips give the wrong values)
- Shard of Prancing Luck
- Choker of the pure heart
- Lovely scented brooch
- Heart Sorrow Luck Charm
- Twinkling love eye
The most interesting part, however, is the new heirloom upgrades that you can buy from the Lovely Vendor for enough tokens of love. It was only in the course of Shadowlands that it became possible to upgrade our heirlooms to level 5/5, which scales them up to level 60 and thus into the endgame of the current expansion. These upgrades, which are normally only available for a good chunk of gold, can now also be purchased for Signs of Love. However, the price is quite high here as well. Note: The Charming Vendor only offers upgrades for weapons – armor will have to be upgraded elsewhere.

In addition, you can capture the Heartbreaker X-45 mount for the first time this year. But this is actually not correct. Because the mount already existed before, but under the name Great Love Rocket. In the course of the Sexy Purge, Bliuzzard changed the name because it was too offensive. Once again, all heroes who have reached at least level 50 can obtain the mount via the Heart-Shaped Box.

WoW: Love is in the air – news 2021
Not much is happening in 2021 during the holiday of lovers in Azeroth – but there are still a few innovations. The WoW developers have adjusted the item levels of the necklaces that you can capture from the event boss in Castle Shadowfang to match the level squeeze. The item level is 158 at maximum level 60 and scales according to the level of your character.
If you are also a member of the Venthyr Pact, you can enjoy some bonuses, just like at the Winter Veil Festival and the Moon Festival: The Venthyr Theotar stays near a large love arch at the Glowing Courtyard and gives you both perfume and scented water, which you can use to triple the satisfaction of your guests at the Glowing Courtyard:
- Theotar’s Alluring Perfume
- Theotar’s tantalizing scent water
Accordingly, using the perfume and scented water will make it easier for you to get the maximum possible reward when completing the Gluthof event.
There is also a table next to Theotar with flowers and candles around. You can collect both as often as you like and spread them all over the Gluthof grounds to spread some love flair. However, the decoration does not bring any gameplay advantage.
WoW: Love is in the air – News 2020
Blizzard is putting on the handbrake this year and not giving the 2020 lovers event any notable innovations. You still need at least level 110 to get the Great Love Missile from one of the heart-shaped boxes. We can’t say at this point if they have increased the item levels of the necklaces. However, we will adjust this guide accordingly as soon as we know more.
WoW: Love is in the air – News 2019
Also in the new version of Love is in the Air, Blizzard raises the loot at the event boss in Castle Shadowfang again, this time (2019) the necklaces have an item level of 365 (note: the tooltips give the wrong values):
- Shard of Prancing Fortune
- Choker of the pure heart
- Lovely scented brooch
- Heart Sorrow Luck Charm
- Twinkling Love Eye
Furthermore, you can now buy the Worn Heirloom Weapon Scabbard for 450 Signs of Love. However, to be lucky enough to pull the Great Love Missile out of one of the heart-shaped boxes, you must be at least level 110 as of this year! Those who collect 150 tokens of love can now also get the toy Q. Pido’s heart-shaped resting stone.

WoW: Love is in the air – Signs of love via Dailys
You can obtain Signs of Love via the daily quests “A Fine Cloud of Perfume,” “A Perfect Breath of Perfume,” “Candy Lightning,” as well as the daily Lucky Charm Bracelet quest. While only one of the above three quests is available each day (for which you’ll receive five tokens of love), you can complete four faction leader bracelet quests each day. You can get the collection set for pretty lucky charms from Qixi Q. Pido, who lurk near the merchants for Love Lies in the Air. The daily quests for the faction leaders are also available from him. Alliance players can show their affection for the leaders in Stormwind, Ironforge, Darnassus and Exodar, while Horde players can go to Thunderrock, Orgrimmar, Undercity and Silvermoon.
Last but not least, after completing the “Unusual Smells” quest series (described below), you can complete the daily quest “Shatter the Crown”, which rewards you with three Signs of Love per day and is a prerequisite for the “Dangerous Love” achievement, among others. Also: if you diligently collect Pretty Lucky Bracelet, trade them in at the Lovely Vendors to get Signs of Love and buy the items needed for the achievements. For the Crown Chemical Manufacture quests, you don’t need to do anything other than distribute the samples to players and NPCs. Target a player or NPC without a heart icon above their head and click on the item to distribute it.
Note: Players who have already completed the “Unusual Scents” quest series but do not receive the daily quest from Schnappbolz can repeat part of the series starting from “On Your Heels” with Marion and Roka, respectively.
Love is in the Air – Apothecary Bumblebee
Apothecary Bumblebee can drop some items, for example epic necklaces. In addition, the first time you knock Bumblebee down on the day, you’ll get Heart-Shaped Box . This chocolate box can also contain some coveted items! To get to these enemies, you can use the dungeon browser, talk to the detectives, or chat up the Steam Cartel’s shysters in Orgrimmar or Stormwind. Your character does not need to be max level!
WoW: Love is in the Air – Quests for Horde and Alliance
Questline: Unusual Scents (Horde)
Unusual scents
Detective Snap Schnappbolz wants to track down mysterious occurrences in the chemical factory Krone. You can find him in Orgrimmar next to the bank in the trade district.
Something stinks here
Snapbolt gives you an air analyzer that you should use to examine heavily perfumed guards. You can recognize the heavily perfumed guards by the pink cloud of air around them. Target the guards and use the air analyzer. Once you’ve done that with six guards, return to Snapbolt.
Perfume theft
Snapbolt disguises you as a delivery boy. Run in front of the city gate to Durotar, keep to the left and have a package thrown at you, which in turn brings you Schnappbolz. Don’t worry you might be too slow – you maintain a decent speed all by yourself, thanks to errand boy buff.
Flenni’s Flame
In the alley under the cooking teacher you will find Roka in a hut, which will give you the next part of the quest line.
On their heels
Roka gives you the follow-up quest, for which you look for Flenni in the bank, auction house and at the barber’s. This refers to the buildings in the Valley of Strength. As soon as you enter the buildings, Flenni Rusty Rocket will appear and engage in some suspicious dialogue with nearby NPCs before spotting you, stunning you, and disappearing again. Return to Roka after your trip to the three locations.
A nice chat…
Roka sends you to the zeppelin tower to intercept Flenni – you will find him at the foot of the tower where the zeppelins leave for the Undercity and Stranglethorn. After a little interrogation, Flenni drops his ledger, which you automatically pick up and return to Snapbolt. Once you’ve completed the quest line, Snapbolt will give you the daily quest “Smash the Crown,” which will send you somewhere else based on your level. There you destroy a wagon from the Krone chemical manufacturer and sprayers from the Krone manufactory. Depending on your level, you will receive gold, experience points and 5 tokens of love as a reward. Danger! You must have completed the Unusual Scents questline in order to challenge Bumblebee in Shadowfang Keep and earn the Dangerous Liaison achievement.

The cooldown of the item has been increased to 60 seconds on February 2nd, and the buff you are supposed to stack lasts for 10 seconds. You cannot use the item on your own hero. All of this means you’ll need to team up with some friends to keep the buff up and earning the achievements on an ongoing basis. As a reward for the 50th success you get the Prism of True Love toy.
Lovely luck is on your side
Open a dress box and get a lovely black dress from it. The box is available for 20 Tokens of Love from the Lovely Vendors located at the “Love is in the Air” stalls in the capital cities.

Love must hurt
This achievement was introduced in Patch 3.3 and is available for the first time in 2010. Three elite opponents from the Krone Chemical Manufactory await you in Schattenfang Castle. To get to these enemies, you can use the Dungeon Finder, talk to the detectives, or chat up the Steamwheedle Cartel’s crooks in Orgrimmar or Stormwind City. In Orgrimmar the advocate is to the left of Vol’jin’s stronghold, in Stormwind to the right of the auction house in the trade district. As soon as you enter the courtyard of the castle, you will see bottles of perfume and scented water on a small table on the left wall, which you can collect. The perfumes are violet, the colognes green. You can spray yourself with either one and make yourself immune to the effects of the puddles that Hummel and his colleagues throw at you. So choose a color – green or purple – so you have more space in the yard. Because during the fight, the space is quite tight. You can then stand in the puddle of the color you chose. The tank occupies the opponents, then you shouldn’t have a problem with the fight.
