What are Endeavors?
Endeavors are a monthly event that takes place within Player Housing Neighborhoods, and transform the central square of the instance into a story-themed hub for its duration. These are designed to give players a glimpse into other areas of Azeroth beyond the current expansion story, and offer unique zone-themed housing items as rewards for your efforts.

Endeavors can be completed through all kinds of in-game tasks, such as Crafting, Gathering, Questing, and instanced Group Content. In addition to Endeavor currency to be spent at the respective Endeavor NPCs for that month, they will also reward you with Neighborhood Favor, the renown-like system for housing that progresses your options for decoration.

For Public Neighborhoods, Endeavors will be automatically rotated through by the server each month. For Private Neighborhoods, a designated "Neighborhood Manager" will be able to pick which Endeavors will be active from month to month. The exception is a Priority Endeavor, which will be pushed to every Neighborhood. Priority Endeavors will be related to current in-game events, be it, for example, expansion-related, relevant story, or a holiday.
