WoW Housing Guide: Neighborhood Endeavors Explained
Introduction
One of the most exciting details Blizzard has shared about WoW Housing is the Neighborhood Endeavor system. These are monthly, neighborhood-wide activities designed to bring players together — adding a real sense of community to housing.
What Are Endeavors?
Endeavors run roughly once a month and give everyone in the neighborhood a set of tasks to complete. These aren’t just fetch quests either — they range from:
- Crafting and gathering
- Questing
- Dungeon runs
- Even raids
As you chip away at tasks, you’ll earn two key things: Endeavor Currency and Neighborhood Favor.
The coolest part? As neighborhoods progress, NPCs tied to that theme actually show up. They bring new decorations and even change how your neighborhood looks. Imagine spooky décor for a Shadowy Endeavor or lush greenery for a Druidic one.
Public vs. Private Involvement
- In public neighborhoods, Endeavors are chosen automatically by the game.
- In private neighborhoods, you get more control — leaders can pick from a pool of available Endeavors, although sometimes Blizzard will push fixed events to tie in with world happenings.
No matter the size of your neighborhood, Endeavors scale so both small and large groups can participate.
Rewards & Progression
Finishing Endeavor tasks as a group rewards everyone with bonus currency and favor.
- Neighborhood Favor → levels up your house and unlocks new features.
- Endeavor Currency → spent on decorations from NPCs who arrive during the event.
- Variety → each neighborhood evolves differently depending on the events they complete, giving you a reason to go explore other players’ communities.
Why Endeavors Matter
This is where housing really becomes more than just “my little house.” Endeavors make it a shared experience. Cooperative players can team up on bigger goals, while solo players still have plenty of ways to contribute. Over time, neighborhoods will look different depending on which Endeavors they’ve tackled, making them feel alive and ever-changing.
Conclusion
Blizzard clearly wants housing to feel dynamic and social. With Neighborhood Endeavors, you’re not just decorating your own corner of Azeroth — you’re helping shape the entire community around you. That mix of personal and collective progress could be what keeps WoW Housing vibrant for months (or even years) after launch.
