The siege tasks you with taking back Dragonbane Keep from the Djaradin and returning it into the hands of the Obsidian Outcasts. It\u2019s unlocked as a reward for achieving the fifth level of renown with the Valdrakken Accord and can be completed as many times as you like.\u00a0 Occasionally, a weekly quest will be active to complete the Siege on Dragonbane Keep, but the timer that shows whether the event is active or not can be a little tough to read. Furthermore, the timer can sometimes even be misleading as it won\u2019t always show the exact time at which the next siege begins.\u00a0 Here\u2019s how to properly read and interpret the Dragonbane Keep timer in WoW Dragonflight.\u00a0 WoW Dragonflight: Siege on Dragonbane Keep rotating timer, explained The Siege on Dragonbane Keep is on a two-hour timer.\u00a0 Dragonbane Keep\u2019s two-hour timer is separated into two halves, with one half serving as a period where the event is unable to be completed, and the other half marking the time when it\u2019s active. But this timer can be relatively deceiving as once the event begins, it\u2019s usually over in just a few minutes.\u00a0 The Siege on Dragonbane Keep timer can be divided by the two messages that appear on the Waking Shores map: \"The Obsidian Outcasts are gathering. The siege will begin soon.\" This stage of the timer means that the Siege on Dragonbane Keep will begin whenever the countdown reaches zero, and you should head to the staging area to start the event. \"The siege is active, and the Outcasts could use your help.\" This stage means that the siege has started, and if you don\u2019t get there soon, you\u2019ll have to wait until the next siege for the event. Chances are, if you don\u2019t get there within 10 minutes, you\u2019ll miss out.\u00a0 Usually, you can head to the staging area where the Siege on Dragonbane Keep begins in the Waking Shores at coordinates [30, 78] and check if players are gathering in the area ahead of the event. If you arrive there and see plenty of players getting ready to lay siege to Dragonbane Keep, you should stick around as it\u2019s likely that the event will begin soon. If you see that the Dragonbane Keep event is in the \u201cgathering\u201d stage, you\u2019ll want to head there ASAP as when that countdown hits zero, the event will begin.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-53.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1209252"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1209252"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1209252\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1209272,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1209252\/revisions\/1209272"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1209258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1209252"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1209252"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1209252"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1209252"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1209252"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1209252"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1209252"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
