*This article is stub and unfinished. For lore, see Hawth Bowserth.*

**Hawth Bowserth** is a limited world boss revealed by the explosion of the white crystal ball in the Lumiere Crystal Tower, and is the final boss in the Doomsday Clock event. This is the last major battle of the Last Voyage expansion.

### Voyager's Guide

*He was imprisoned inside the giant white crystal ball by Elune after the events of Yocrorix, but Elune's crystal ball was only temporary and his anima had to be withdrawn because excessive anima harvest had turned him into a wild, cruel demon. Hawth is ready to unleash all his unseen rage in the universe, and Tyrande Whisperwind summons adventurers across the universe to a final showdown with him. The goal of Tyrande's adventurers is not to kill him, but to calm him down. If Hawth calms down, Elune will cleanse not herself but the entire universe from the Vortana threat.*

## Event summary

When players enter the lobby of this world boss event, they will directly encounter the giant white crystal ball, and the ball will have the event's timer on it. It will be in a place blended with arcane magic that will hold players even if it is high off the ground, but the player's UI will not appear until the event starts. 10 minutes before the event starts, Tyrande Whisperwind will start talking and give players a prismatic shield. 3 minutes before the event, the crystal ball will start to crack and the user interface of the players will appear. It will summon a few zombies to warm up. 1 minute before the start, a warning announcement will be made from the sound systems in Lumiere and the music in the game will be silenced. When the timer is over, the (!) mark will appear on the ball and the UI will close again. When it starts, Tyrande Whisperwind, Shandris Feathermoon, Aghanim Arcaneblaster, Celeste Brightspear and Jaina Proudmoore will appear. The crystal ball will begin to open and explode tremendously. The explosion will instantly knock all players and heroes away, and Jaina will teleport all beings to the platform. Hawth Bowserth will appear and use his ultimate illusion skill, the entire background will be covered with fire. The UI will come back and heroes and players will start taking damage from it. Elune will come and create a shield formation and players will not take damage. The screen turns white and then the final showdown with Hawth begins.
