Complete the weekly event quests TWICE per event, per character
So yesterday (technically today) at 00:00 the Timewalking event arrived once again and I immediately completed the 5 dungeon quest & 500 badge boss drop quest.
Today I queued up for a skirmish and when I came out I noticed that the 5 timewalking dungeon quest had reset. Seeing this I queued for a timewalking instance and could loot a 2nd 'Swirling Timewarped Vial' aka the item that starts the 500 badge quest. However after queueing skirmish again after turning in the badge quest it did not reset a 2nd time.
How does this work? If you complete the timewalking quests between 00:00 and 03:00 tuesday night (before the weekly quest reset timer) you can reset the quests by queueing up for a skirmish after 03:00 and get double Normal Cache & 500 badge boss drop quest.
Obviously most of you cannot reproduce this now if some of you didn't complete the quests between 00:00 and 03:00 last night.
EDIT: It was on EU servers.
EDIT 2: Most likely works on all the different weekly events: pet battle, timewalking, bgs etc etc. Same method, complete it between 00:00 > 03:00 at Tuesday night / Wednesday morning > queue skirmish the day after and it should reset.
EDIT 3: !!! IMPORTANT !!! Make sure you guys test this for the upcoming Apexis Bonus as well on Tuesday night/wednesday morning. Pretty cool to get a shitton of garrison resources and oil on all your alts =)
EDIT 4: CONFIRMED to work for apexis event as well! Same rules apply, as long as you completed it before 03:00 at tuesday night/wednesday morning it WILL be reset after 03:00 and you WILL get double the rewards.

Really nice find, glad that you could enjoy it. Will surely be fixed when the next event is live.
PS: the usefulness of this release is not [Active]

Doubt it will get fixed because it's not something 'major'. Hopefuly works for all the weekly events.
If it's not Active then what would you consider it as? I understand that it isn't active from your perspective if you didn't complete the quests betweeen 00:00 > 03:00 @ Tuesday but still, it's only 'Active' during the events each week.

This is kind of a recurring bug in the game with lots of different things in WOW's history related to this weekly reset. Awesome that you found one that is a HUGE saver. Blizz also has a history of eventually fixing these things, but slowly. So, there is hope it will still be working next time Great find. +7 rep!

Make sure you guys test this for the upcoming Apexis Bonus as well on Tuesday night/wednesday morning. Pretty cool to get a shitton of garrison resources and oil on all your alts =)

You can only make it reset if you complete the quests before 03:00 @ Tuesday night/Wednesday morning.
I will update this thread once I confirmed if this works for apexis event as well.
