Festival of the Bonfire logo.png

The Festival of the Bonfire is a limited time in-game event that typically runs throughout the summer season, most recently from 23rd August through 15th September, 2024. During this event, players are able to obtain new, exclusive cosmetic items from Bonfire Crates, similarly to the rewards from regular Loot Crates. It is the first festival in the yearly cycle of festivals, preceded by the Festival of the Heroes and usually followed by the Festival of the Spirits.

Three free Bonfire Crates were available to all players from the start of the event, and could be claimed in the Wynncraft Store. Further crates could be obtained in-game by completing Daily Objectives (Tier I crates), and Weekly Objectives for players in a level 10+ Guild (Tier II). A maximum of 30 Bonfire Crates could be obtained for free, while additional crates were available to buy from the Wynncraft Store until the end of the event.

The city of Detlas was also redecorated in celebration of this festival, becoming Bonfire Detlas. A 5v5 minigame, Battle for the Bonfire is also playable as well as a daily scavenger hunt, being the Hearthflame Hunt (though in previous years, it has been the Guiding of the Spirits).

Bonfire Detlas

BonfirePromo2022.png

Detlas was redecorated to honor the festival, becoming Bonfire Detlas as a massive bonfire replaces the usual crystal structure in the center of the city where the Item Identifier could be found. The Bonfire Keeper is the main NPC for this festival.

Numerous other NPCs also arrived in Detlas for the festival, including:

Additionally, some merchants set up shop selling exclusive items, including the Sweets Merchant, the Food Merchant, and the Bread Merchant.

During the 2022 Festival of the Bonfire, The Envoy and The Seer made their return due to the timeframe of this festival overlapping with the usual time for that festival.

During the 2024 Festival of the Bonfire, Aster would also appear as a standard NPC in the northwest area of Bonfire Detlas, who would give players boons of their choosing throughout the duration of the festival.

Hearthflame Hunt

LitHearthflameBonfire.png

Every day during this event, the Bonfire Keeper would ask of you to bring the hearthflames to various bonfires across all of the cities. Hearthflames are stored on an item called the Hearthkeeper's Staff, and right-clicking it will point towards the nearest bonfire that needs to be lit. However, when a hearthflame is on your staff, you are unable to use Teleportation Scrolls.

For every bonfire lit, you will receive 9
Emerald Blocks. There are other milestones for the amount of bonfires lit:

Bonfire Locations

  • Day Coordinates City Location within the City Dialogue
    1 -857, 68, -1526 Ragni At the northern plaza. War's grasp over the citadel has weakened over the years... Ragni finds itself more defended than it has ever been.
    ...Accidents still happen, of course. A corrupted slips through... a loss which can never be forgotten.
    2 -8, 75, -1167 Elkurn In the village square. Living in a hotspot of magical energy has its benefits. Easy access for the sake of research.
    ...It holds its own dangers, too, of course. Those who remain remember the lost, then press onward.
    3 679, 77, -2003 Bremminglar Near the southern entrance. Bandits lie in wait along the twisting roads of the savannah. Encounters are rarely deadly...
    But rarely is not never. For the victims... or the bandits.
    4 -199, 25, -361 Lusuco Near the entrance. A deep chill settles the air, as day turns to night.
    The cold has long lost its sway over the inhabitants... but the hearthflame remembers those who could not adapt.
    5 -1807, 54, -5450 Olux By the southwestern wall. Loved ones, gone missing in the night. They search, and they search, and yet... find nothing.
    In the absence of resolution, they turn to certainty. A bonfire glows faintly with their sorrow.
    6 862, 68, -1957 Almuj By the Savannah entrance. The desert heat is dangerous... but manageable. Travelers come prepared when passing through the sands. Fewer come prepared for the sandstorms.
    When the wind picks up and the air is filled with sand, finding a way to safety becomes impossible. Few survive the exposure.
    7 -1018, 54, -5236 Gelibord By southern entrance. There is no time to mourn the dead, here. Only the everpresent certainty of their return.
    Later, in the quiet evenings, they will remember. They will grieve. For now, though, they can only take action.
    8 52, 39, -2222 Nemract In the western area. There are many dangers in a sailor's line of work. The seas are cruel and uncaring, and the waves as deadly as they are beautiful.
    Those who do not return from their voyages are remembered by those who knew them, through stories told at late nights in the tavern.
    9 -1514, 45, -4757 Bucie Near Entrance to Bucie banner. The Villager-Orc conflict has taken many lives over its course. When the dust settles, and battles end for a time, both sides are left to mourn their losses.
    Lives lost in the pursuit of needless conflict... what sense is there in such a thing? But if they are remembered nonetheless.
    10 -1535, 69, -2900 Corkus City In the northwest quadrant of the city. With the rogue intelligence destroyed, and Corkus saved from rogue mechs, the people pay no mind to the loss of something already thought destroyed.
    All except for one. He does not mourn its loss as he would another person... but he feels it nonetheless.
    A loss of potential, perhaps. That is what he will choose to tell himself. He will not truly believe it.
    11 737, 77, -5073 Thesead Near the west gate. The miners push ever deeper into the mountain, in search of the ores buried in the stone. The bird falls still. They know what this means.
    They rush for escape, for the fresh air outside. Most of them make it alive. The others join the canary in its rest.
    12 -505, 53, -1882 Maltic In the farm fields near the windmill. Though they deemed her an outcast - someone who would not be missed... the village seemed just a little emptier without her presence.
    None would say it aloud, though all were thinking it... perhaps they had made a mistake. Too little, too late.
    13 -679, 77, -3120 Pirate Cove In the area on the top. A pirate's life is never easy. Death is always just around the corner, no matter how one tries to avoid it.
    And so, why fear it? They sail the sea without a care in the world, plundering as they go.
    And when a pirate finally falls, they are not mourned, but celebrated. Remembered for their acts in life, and not in death.
    14 744, 68, -1563 Ternaves Near east entrance. Life is quiet, in the town. Though it was built off of the framework of mining operations of years past, little of that culture still remains.
    ...There are, however, ghosts still buried in its roots. Death came for the miners, as the mineshafts crumbled. Never mourned, never honored.
    15 1017, 117, -4487 Ahmsord Near the southern entrance. The skyraiders have long been familiar with death, from the moment the land fractured. From the abyss below and in the clouds above, one's life is always at risk.
    The loss of a queen turned from a travesty to a regular occurrence as the years went on. Mourned briefly, before moving on.
    16 -1997, 78, -4485 Llevigar At the upper level near the Bank. The fateful voyage of discovery was not the first attempt to cross the raging oceans. Many people over thousands of years set off to seek a better future... and yet, all fell to the waves.
    The final voyage is remembered, yet others are not.
    17 176, 8, -5273 Thanos Near the Bank. When the sky split open and the ground cracked and splintered a thousand years ago, dwarven rule over the canyon came to an end. The strongholds of the south were crushed and buried, leaving only the northernmost one standing.
    The countless lives lost were remembered and honored, for a time. But soon, the dwarves traveled eastward, and replaced their history with the new heroes and conquests of the Heights.
    18 -164, 72, -1581 Alekin Village South of the Item Identifier. Over a hundred years ago, great burning fires engulfed the woods. The village was evacuated, but many remained to hold off the encroaching forces, and to buy others time.
    As the rain fell and the flames extinguished, all that remained of the village was a greatly burned, but still standing tree. A symbol for the survivors.
    19 -1091, 44, -4960 Efilim Near Olon's house. In the chaos following the Equinox, many dissenting voices were exiled from Aldorei. Some found refuge in the forests, guided by fairies to their new home.
    Not all were so lucky. As winter fell, and the gates remained closed, those outside the forest refuge fell to the elements. Only later, when the bodies were found, would Aldorei regret their decision.

    1 -857, 68, -1526 Ragni At the northern plaza.

    4 102, 37, -3106 Selchar In the middle of the docks.
    5 132, 74, -843 Nesaak On the frozen lake.

    18 -1092, 44, -4961 Efilim By Olon's house.
    19 176, 7, -5274 Thanos On the northern side of the bazaar.
    20 -1019, 54, -5237 Gelibord South of the town.
    21 1017, 117, -4488 Ahmsord On the southern end of town.
  • Guiding of the Spirits

    Spirit.png

    Coinciding with the Bonfire was also a return of Festival of the Spirits NPCs, The Envoy and The Seer, hosting the Guiding of the Spirits event. Each day during the event, players could seek out spirits throughout the world to disperse and get rewards from The Envoy.

    Similar to the Festival of the Spirits, players could collect spirits and return them to The Envoy. This time, the Lantern from Beyond was used to find the spirits. Players received emeralds for every spirit returned, and trinkets after certain increments of spirits have been collected. The trinkets collected were as follows:

    Spirit Locations

    1 531, 67, -1639 At the back of the Detlas barracks, in a room on the left
    2 -737, 67, -1682 Outside Farmer Cevalus' farmhouse near Ragni
    3 41, 34, -2240 Below the Crate Crane at the Nemract docks
    4 1211, 31, -1290 On the west end of Rymek, in an alley behind the Bovine Church
    5 -647, 36, -2688 Zhight Island, in front of treasure adventure cave
    6 -580, 70, -1170 Time Valley, in front of the Door of Time
    7 -1315, 45, -4903 In front of the Centerworld Fortress from the quest All Roads to Peace
    8 -218, 28, -319 Lusuco, between the Bank and the Identifier
    9 -1207, 44, -5246 In the Caritat Mansion graveyard
    10 -712, 97, -607 At the very back of Iboju Village by the Iboju Shaman

    12 293, 27, -1289 At the start of the path to the Nether Portal

    21 1328, 38, -4081 By Jo's Tavern in Jofash Docks

    Battle for the Bonfire

    Battle for the Bonfire was a minigame that was accessible through the Sunset Valley. It was a 5v5 minigame that was based on capture the flag, and you used various weapons that were scattered across the arena to gain the upper hand over your opponents.

    Bonfire Crates

    BonfireCrates50.png

    All Bonfire rewards are guaranteed to be of Rare tier or higher, including Epic, Godly, and Black Market rewards. Like regular crates, Bonfire Crates are available in Tiers I, II, III and IV. Tier I crates could be obtained from Daily Objectives or by redeeming 3 free ones on the Wynncraft Store, and Tier II crates could be obtained from Weekly Guild Objectives. All tiers of crates could be obtained by purchasing them from the Wynncraft store.

    While these crates generally function like normal Loot Crates, note that Bonfire rewards cannot be scrapped together with non-Bonfire rewards.

    List of Bonfire Crate Rewards

    In total, there were 12 pets, 10 player effects, 47 weapon skins, and 37 hat skins available from Bonfire Crates in 2024.

    Trivia

    • This was the first festival added in Wynncraft. The original 2021 iteration lacked a lot less content than the following iterations, with the only additions being a large bonfire in the center of Detlas, the Bonfire Tender NPC, the
      2021 Emblem of the Bonfire, and some new cosmetics.
    • If you had last logged out in an area where a bonfire would be in Detlas, and then logged back in, a piece of dialogue would play, "The heat of the flames pushes you out of the bonfire." This was likely implemented to avoid anyone getting stuck in a bonfire.
    • Some of the Weapon Gear Skins have some characters written in Ancient Wynnic or High Gavellian inscribed onto them:
      • Bob's Wand: "ETHE" in Ancient Wynnic, referring to his mentor of magic.
      • Tasim's Glaive: "ALLY" in High Gavellian.
      • Aledar's Dagger: "WYNN" in Ancient Wynnic.
