Kommentar von Soeroah

I don't know about Alliance-side, but Horde-side this is pretty bugged right now.

I've been kicked out of the competition along with everyone else the second it started, incurring the 6 minute debuff to wait for another chance.

I've started a competition where three players had 0 points but one had 1 point, which gave them an advantage.

I'd urge everyone who experiences these bugs to report them in-game if you want them to be resolved before Brewfest is over.

Kommentar von Tangers58

Not sure why anyone thought this was a good idea for a contest with other players. Just a huge waste of time waiting for other people to show up, and this is the first day of the event, only going to be more of a ghost town as the event drags on

Kommentar von Kayleah123

Apperently you have to win the Chowdown in order to complete the quest, not just participate which is what the quest says

Kommentar von NoterSaurfang

This quest, Brewfest Chowdown, is the introductory quest to the Brewfest event of the same name "Brewfest Chowdown". To complete this quest you merely need to participate in the event whether you win or lose.

Once you accept the quest take a seat on one of the four seats behind the long table alongside the quest giver and wait for the event to begin. The event will not begin until all four seats are occupied by players, so be patient. At times of high demand there can be competition just to get a seat.

You can PARTICIPATE in the EVENT again, at any time after completing this quest, just by occupying a seat, as there is no further quest to be accepted.

Winning the Brewfest Chowdown event will result in the award of one Championmarke des Mampfkampfs which will appear in your bag. Upon collecting five (5) Championmarke des Mampfkampfss you will be able to purchase the toy Mampfkampftrophäe des Braufests. The quest giver is also the vendor for this Toy.

There are no consolation rewards for the 3 losers. After participating in the event you will gain a 5 minute "Full Stomach" debuff, temporarily preventing participation in the event. The debuff is removed if you die.

After collecting 5 tokens & purchasing the toy there appears to be no further achievement or need to continue participating in the event. This quest MAY reset daily, however I do not know at this time.

To WIN this event you must be the first to eat 10 plates of sausages. WHEN THE EVENT BEGINS your action bar will be replaced by a bar with only 3 actions (Keys 1, 2 & 3) and a progress bar in the lower centre of the screen. The keys are basically 1. Eat Sausage (1 sec CD), 2. Refreshing Brew (10 sec CD) & 3. New Plate (please, because I've just finished the last plate) (3 sec CD). The progress bar (%) shows you how Full your Stomach is.

Eating (key 1) fills the bar. Drinking (key 2) reduces the bar. (If Not eating the % will gradually decrease naturally.) If, when eating, the bar exceeds 100% you will get a "choking" and be unable to perform any action for 4 or 5 seconds. When each plate is empty then key 3 (New Plate) will become active & Key 1 (Eat) will be inactive until key 3 New Plate has been used. (Similarly key 3 is inactive while a plate that is not empty is present.) (TIP: Suggest start with key 3 when event begins to ensure a plate is active.)

(TIP: I found eating so much/so fast that I 'choked' will lead to losses. Use Drink (key 2) frequently and have the patience to wait for the bar to reduce naturally if key 2 is on CD, as this is faster than the overeating & choking delay.)

NOTE: All players receive the same number of sausages at each plate/stage of the event. Any visual that appears otherwise is just that, visual only. As players rapidly 'eat' sausages the graphics may not have time to 'draw' the sausage before it is consumed. Never the less, there are fewer sausages on the first few plates for each player but are the same for each player.

Players giving you grief? Can't see what's on your plate? Here are two solutions:

Solution 1: The Solo Strategy (Guaranteed to Work)

Stop watching your character eat the sausages on their plate, instead watch the vehicle action bar. This helps to not only ignore the other players who are blocking your vision, but also focuses your attention on a smaller part of the screen. While monitoring your choke bar make sure to press the buttons as the become available. Fast button pressing is not required during the actual competition as faster button mashing is likely to result in your character choking. Instead take it slowly and eventually you will win. This may still be frustrating to those that are impatient, however patience is indeed the key to this challenge. As for actually making it into the eating competition, fast mouse clicking is your ticket. Unfortunately there is no queue which means that everyone will be scrambling to get into the competition and sadly disrespecting one another as they push and shove to get ahead of one another.

Solution 2: The Group Strategy (Guaranteed to Work)

If all else fails you might be able to form a group for later in the two week holiday event to alternate taking turns to each earn your tokens. This can wind up with you taking an hour to ensure that each of the four players in your group receives enough tokens for the toy. This strategy can make the competition much less arduous as three players can afk while one wins their tokens. Sadly, this is not a guaranteed viable strategy as other players make still be swarming the competition later in the holiday. Take this strategy with a grain of salt and as a last resort.

Edit: Thank you Javierhimura for confirming that my group strategy indeed does work.

Don't give up! You can do this!

And remember you are competing against other players, not NPCs. Sometimes you will be competing with highly skilled players while other times you will be the most skilled. Practice doesn't make perfect, but it does make you better!

Kommentar von stym

There is a healthy dose of RNG in this event:

The number of sausages per plate is random (I believe it's between two and four)
Sausages are not made equal: your fullness bar will not necessarily fill by the same amount every time you eat a sausage

(I'm not yet sure if drinking reduces your fullness bar by the same amount every time)

So if you are doing everything right, as in:

Never choke
Chug some brew as soon after you eat the first couple sausages to keep the cooldown running (there are three charges)
Don't drink if it will reduce your fullness bar below 0, wasting some of the effects of that drink
Request new plates as soon as they are available

There is still a chance you will lose.

It also means that someone who just adequately pays attention is not at a disadvantage when placed against someone with mad skillz or lower latency.

tl;dr Keep at it, you'll get it eventually.

This game is an RNG game. The winner will be random if everyone plays perfectly. So it isn't yours to win, but it is yours to lose. Having said that, you can definitely play suboptimally so here is a guide to optimal play:

The opener is 1-1-2. You want to eat 2 bites and then a brew. Always.
The midgame algorithm is much more forgiving. It doesn't need lightning reflexes, so just take it slow and easy.

If 3 is available, press 3
if choking < 70, press 1
if 2 is available, press 2
else wait

The ending is crucial. You win once you are at 9 score and press button 3. So if someone else is at 9 too, and you're >= 70 but you're on your second bite you might want to take a risk and press 2 in the off chance that you have a 2 bite plate and your bite gives <30. If you don't choke quickly press 3 the moment it is available and win!

Another tip, is if it looks like you are going to lose (say you are at 7 and another person is at 9), you can jump out of the chair and you won't get a debuff. They will probably fix that, but for now you can enjoy no wait times.

Kommentar von Ninsly

It's worth noting that this game has a couple bugs

Sometimes people will start with 1 plate (lucky goons!)
Pressing the buttons really quickly can trigger the action 2 times (I think I even saw someone trigger it 3x). If you have 2 sausages on your plate you can eat both of them in 1 action even if the next bite makes you choke (you'll still choke). This also works in reverse, if you have 1 sausage on the plate and trigger too fast it'll act like you ate 2. I believe you can also trigger the drink twice even though it only uses 1.
Sometimes you won't get the debuff after finishing a game. I'm not sure what triggers this, but it definitely happened to me twice in a row (who am I to complain?)

My win rate was over 50% and I was choking as much as possible, which goes against what many of the comments here say. That's when I discovered that I was unintentionally using the multiple trigger bug (sometimes to my disadvantage). Although honestly, it's probably mostly still luck. (And of course this is where my miniscule amount of luck would appear - in a silly mini-game. Why can't you give me mounts from rares, Blizz? Why?)

Hopefully they fix the bugs. They're really not cool and make the game more convoluted.

Kommentar von FireLily1910

like kayleah123, i also had to win it in order to get credit. participation alone didnt count for me. :/

Kommentar von Akarillon

Absolute best strategy for now is to spamclick 1 as fast as you can and hope you get all sausages in one go.
Then click 3 to get a new plate and repeat.
Works most of the time and you skip huge portions of the game by avoiding the global cooldown.

Kommentar von nastydeath

How to always win: Make sure to spam the LIVING HELL out of your "1" key, you can consume all sausages at once, no matter the choke bar % if you click fast enough. I don't even use the brew, i just SPAM "1" and then get new platter after im done choking, works everytime if you eat all sausages at once!

PRO TIP: if you know you are about to lose just exit the vehicle and you will not get any debuff.

Kommentar von Boombomb

Ok, so here's what I've learned so far:

You don't have 1 drinking charge, you have 3! Don't mash it when available, unless you need it (except for the first time).
Someone pointed out the eat-eat-drink startup. Go with that.
Sometimes you may start with one plate finished. Lucky you!
Don't try to mash those buttons as fast as you can. It will seldom register a second unwanted task.
You can use the beforementioned bug to your advantage. When you have 2 sausages left and your bar is nearly full (but not completely) you can double tap to eat both. You will choke, but it is faster than waiting to make room for the second sausage before asking for the next plate.
If you feel you're losing and don't want to suffer CD, leave the event before it finishes. Alternatively you can kill yourself to avoid the agonising 3 minute wait!

That's it, go get yourself that annoying trophy!

Kommentar von nastydeath

Update on how to always in 8.2.5. where the gcd got nerfed a little bit, so mostly you won't be able to devour all the sausages at once :
1. Bind your "1" key to be instead scroll on your wheel.
2. Enter the competition and scroll away to to victory, while ignoring the drinking button.

Kommentar von radiomn

For those wanting to help out without "dying" to reset the cooldown. I have found that using the exit key before the end does not result in the full stomach cooldown issue. Enjoy.
I suggest spamming the 2 *drink* key while as it gives something for your character to do.

Kommentar von Naareuh

I finally got that thing right! Common sense make people wait until that bar goes down by itself if they cannot drink.

But! Actually you SHOULD keep on eating IF you cannot drink anymore. Indeed if you are choking or whatever, the drinking timer will still go on, so if you got nothing interesting to do (such as drinking or order another plate), you definitely should keep on eating.

You're welcome!

Kommentar von tranquilsea

On Gilneas and Elune this quest is busted. We only have 3 plates and 3 seats. Multiple people (filling all the seats) have sat down and nothing happens. The keys are all greyed out. I've put two bug reports in and nothing. This quest is busted. Someone mentioned, as we were all gathered around the table, that you need 4 plates and 4 seats. That seems to be true as there are 4 flags. We are missing the seat for the yellow flag.

Kommentar von NinjaKnight92

Heya! So lots of people here are posting about the optimal strategy here, and begrudgingly shaking their fist at the RNG of the number of sausages on each plate.
However, there is an easy way to get trophies for you and your 3 best friends in just a few minutes. So everybody can get their 5 Championmarke des Mampfkampfss to be able to buy their Mampfkampftrophäe des Braufests and be on their merry way.

So yes, the number of sausages on each plate is random. But there is something consistent about how the game ends. When the 10th plate is requested. The game is over and the winner is announced. If multiple players request their 10th plate at the same time. Everybody gets a Chowdown championship token. So in theory, you can get 20 tokens for your party of 4 players in just 5 rounds. We didn't have any luck getting a pull timer to work with the vehicle interface for the minigame. but typing out a timer in chat, or counting down on coms works just fine. After the round, you can do another more quickly by dropping yourself off a flying mount and rezzing to get rid of the full belly debuff.

Also, it should be noted that there is presently a bug at the time of writing, where if people click the exit vehicle button, it messes up the mini-game for the whole server. So don't click that. And if you happen to find it bugged, try phasing into another server, or turning off/on war mode.

Good luck getting your cool Brewfest Trophy! and I hope that my discovery here helped save you guys some time!

--Cheers

Kommentar von Kjetterix

Today I ate 1 sausage and I start choking. The seat on the far left doesn't work. Tried with several characters. Drink beer and get to 60%, then 1 sausage and back to chocking.

Kommentar von taima7700

This seems bugged in the 2021 brewfest

Kommentar von SyriSong

Almost a week into the event, and this is still broken. Not holding out hope it'll be fixed this year.

Kommentar von manavein

This quest is currently bugged for me (Connected Nagrand, Horde, 4pm AEST 2021-10-01)

I accepted the quest and the four of us sat down, but the event would not start even though we could see the new action buttons and scoreboard/UI. After exiting we could not restart due to the CD so it kept teleporting us back a few feet and one player could not move at all and had to relog.

I submitted a bug report.

Kommentar von NalianaTiff

There is a way to have the quest work for you. Working as of 2022 for me.

I will try and describe how it worked for me, hopefully there might a few tweaks that can be made to make it easier and faster.

Find four players that have the quest and take a seat, once everyone is seated the quest will bug out and you wont see any sausages, once everyone are seated. They should leave their seats, once everyone has exited their seats the competition should still be active (there is an enclosure around the table and you get dismounted if you fly over it). Now, the player that wants to win the competition should enter the seat to the farthest left and the quest should start producing sausages for that player.

I did this with 3 starter accounts that I had connected to my account, with level 10 Mountain Taurens (because they are lv10 right from the start and start close to Orgrimmar), that I used as dummy characters just so I could activate the quest for my main account.
Doing it with other players that also wants the tokens might make it more difficult as the winner completes the quest and cant rejoin the competition as far as I know.

Kommentar von Eodyn7

Still bugged as of 9/21/2023. WTF BLIZZ?

Kommentar von Morghella

Bugged on 9-21-2023 3:35 am PDT on Shu'halo (NA) server. How do we get it to start? Blizzard please fix!

Kommentar von Revived

EASY FARM FOR TOY

Grab three friends or three randos.
Sit all at the table and proceed to eat the sausages, no matter the pace.
Wait until everyone at the table is at 9 score with EMPTY dish in front of him.
Someone do a countdown or a DBM pull to coordinate the team.
Click bound button "3" or what you have for "Next Dish" aka win.
Everyone win and everyone get a token.
Toy done in 15 min with no stress.

Enjoy!

2023 Brewfest Chowdown - Bugged STILL

Have tried daily to get this fun event to engage to no avail! Sometimes we all sit down and stare blankly at each other and just become thirsty for some action. I've seen players double up in a chair....players drop all addons.... and ultimately the darn thing is inconsistent. At this time I can't complete the normal start up quest to move beyond.

Anyone find a solution beyond reporting for another year?
