A new month is nearly upon us, and that means new loot is making its way to the Trading Post. September 19th-20th is the Pirates’ Day micro-holiday, and this month’s Trading Post is all pirate-themed to celebrate the event.

You’ll be able to earn Claudius, a hermit crab pet, and Keg Leg’s Radiant Crocolisk, a crocolisk mount. There will also be an assortment of equippable pirate gear, including the Plunderlord’s Radiant Finery ensemble. The bonus reward is an additional, even fancier crocolisk mount, the Plunderlord’s Golden Crocolisk.

Perhaps these items are a clue that Plunderstorm will be returning sometime in the near future? Either way, be sure to grab anything you want from August’s inventory while you still can – and don’t forget that you can freeze an item to purchase later!

Blizzard have additionally posted an overview of the Trading Post for those who may not be as familiar with how it works.

There’s plunder to be had when you raid the Trading Post this month. Whether you’re adventuring by land or sky, you’ll look plunder-ful as you ride into danger on the Plunderlord’s Golden Crocolisk mount.

Visit T&W** (Tawney and Wilder) just outside the Mage District in Stormwind or the Zen’shiri Trading Post next to Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar to check out all the latest items*** they have available. Players can also visit the Trading Post in the capital city of Dornogal (The Foregrounds) on the Isle of Dorn where representatives of both Tawney and Wilder and the Zen’shiri Trading Post are open for business.

This Month’s Bonus Reward

**Plunderlord’s Golden Crocolisk**
*“What is a Plunderlord without a proper display of plunder?”*

Complete activities to fill the bar at the top of the Traveler’s Log found in the Adventure Guide (Shift-J)^***, and you’ll receive this month’s bonus reward — The Plunderlord’s Golden Crocolisk mount. By land or by sea, you’ll ride in style—in a pile of plunder.

Get the Burden of Unrelenting Justice Transmog Appearance Sets

Players who have earned the monthly special reward from the Trading Post twelve times will be rewarded with the achievement, “Trading Post Enthusiast” along with a new color-shifting transmog appearance — the Burden of Unrelenting Justice set— and two non-color shifting sets representing the day and night version of the color-shifting transmog appearances for a total of three sets!

Night Elf in Gold and Green set during the day on the left and silver and white set under the moon on the right — *The Burden of Unrelenting Justice Transmog Appearance Set includes 9 pieces: Head, Shoulder, Chest, Waist, Legs, Feet, Wrist, Hand, and Back (Cloak).*

You don’t need to earn the special reward twelve times consecutively to get the achievement and the transmog sets.

How it Works

Get Tender Every Month

At the beginning of each month, players with an active account in good standing will receive 500 Trader’s Tender automatically every month from a chest called the Collector’s Cache. If you don’t have active game time on your account or aren’t a subscriber at the start of a new month, don’t worry. Your Tender will be awarded on the first day of the month when you do have game time or an active subscription. This will be the same amount for everyone, regardless of how you pay for your game time.

The Traveler’s Log

Complete monthly activities listed in the new Traveler’s Log. Each month features a rotating, themed set of activities. These activities provide the opportunity to earn up to 500 additional Trader’s Tender. There’s only a set amount of Tender you can earn each month through completing activities, so you won’t need to complete all the ones in the log each month. You’ll be able to pick and choose from a variety of fun in-game activities to easily earn Tender. Players can choose to earn by continuing to play the game as they already do, such as completing quests, competing in battlegrounds, participating in holiday activities, and even running Mythic+ dungeons. But you can also choose to take part in activities uniquely designed for the month.

Freeze an Item

Before the month comes to an end, if you haven’t purchased that one “must-have” item yet, don’t worry. You can “freeze” an item so you can purchase it later. When you freeze an item, it will stay available month over month until it is purchased or replaced.

If this month’s offerings didn’t have the items you wanted, you can hang on to your Trader’s Tender to spend later. It won’t go anywhere, and unspent Tender will continue to accumulate each month.
