What is Camping?

The official announcement describes outdoor campfires where adventurers can stop, contribute through professions and share camp benefits. Camping is one of the systems supporting Forever’s level 1–60 journey and social experience. Official recap

Three confirmed ideas

  1. A place in the world: players can build campfires outdoors.
  2. A reason to contribute: professions can help the camp.
  3. A shared benefit: nearby adventurers can share camp buffs.

These describe the system’s purpose. They do not establish exact buff names, percentages, stacking rules, resource costs or durations.

Is it player housing?

The source describes outdoor camping. It does not establish a permanent, customizable home system in Forever. Housing rewards for modern WoW in a purchase bundle belong to a separate entitlement question. See the editions guide.

Editorial interpretation: camps could provide another reason for strangers to pause together during travel. Whether this works well in practice requires gameplay testing, not just the announcement.
