In the world...of Warcraft, goblins invent the strangest contraptions. The latest in-game toy created by our green friends is the Goblin Weather Machine in World of Warcraft (WoW) Dragonflight, featuring limited climate-altering properties.
If you are a WoW player who wants nothing more than to change the climate where you go in Azeroth, then this guide has you covered, explaining exactly how you can get the WoW Dragonfligth Goblin Weather Machine toy on your favorite character.
Update on 14 June 2023: The Twitch drop event to get the Goblin Weather Machine has now ended. We will update WoW fans if/when it returns.
WoW Dragonflight Goblin Weather Machine Toy: How To Get
First, a bit of lore text for the Goblin Weather Machine toy in WoW Dragonflight to get you excited:
Sunny weather not guaranteed. Goblin-made machines undergo somewhat rigorous testing and are mostly safe to use. Our goblin engineers are not responsible for any permanent climate changes brought to Azeroth, Outland, the Dragon Isles, or any other realms due to misuse of this toy. Void where prohibited.
You can get the Goblin Weather Machine via a new Twitch drop by watching any WoW Dragonflight stream on Twitch.tv for a total of four (4) hours.
Players must link their Twitch account to their Battle.net account. You can do so by heading on over to this page. After you’ve claimed your Goblin Weather Machine reward on Twitch, please make sure you’re logging into the Battle.net region you’d like to receive the drops on, as the first region you log into will be where your items will be delivered. This process could take up to 24 hours.
WoW Dragonflight Goblin Weather Machine Twitch Dates & Times
The Goblin Weather Machine is a limited-time reward. You must watch at least four hours of WoW Dragonflight between 1 February 2023 at 10:00 PST and 5 February 2023 at 23:59 PST. With such a small window of time, we suggest getting those four hours in and claiming your WoW Dragonflight Goblin Weather Machine toy as soon as possible.
