Spooky Items Coming to the Trading Post for October in The War Within

October’s almost here, and it’s spooky season! The October Trading Post looks to be stocked with fun items for all of your Hallow’s End festivities, including two creepy new mounts, a pet, two toys, and some great items to complete your costume transmog. There’s also a third mount available as the bonus reward!

Don’t forget that you can freeze an item in the Trading Post if you want to save up to buy it later. Also note that Blizzard has big plans for the Trading Post in November: they are bringing back last year’s armor sets and transmog weapon sets for WoW’s 20th Anniversary.

Whether you walk in the light or embrace the shadows, there’s a little something for everyone during the October Trading Post. Rise from the depths when you ride into battle on the Depthstalker mount.

20th Anniversary and November’s Trading Post

Mind your Tender— with the upcoming November Trading Post we’ll be bringing back last year’s armor sets and transmog weapon sets. Each armor set comes with three pieces: helm, shoulder, and belt, and each weapon set comes with 3 weapons.

Class Restrictions Lifted

Players will now be able to purchase these items with any class character to add to your transmog collection and any class that can wear or use that item transmog can. So, if you have a mail user, they will be able to wear any mail armor set transmog and if your class can use one-hand maces, you’ll be able to use any of the mace transmogs, etc.


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

Depthstalker
“Poached from Zereth Mortis, a few of these jellyfish were lost when the poachers’ ship sank. They found a new home in the Great Sea’s depths.”

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 Depthstalker mount. Rise from the depths when you ride into battle on this shadowy cnidarian.


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!

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.
