The month of April is almost over, and May is bringing all new items to the Trading Post! You have a couple more days to earn Trader’s Tender and make your purchases. Don’t forget that you can also freeze one item to purchase later! Blizzard recently confirmed that items will be rotating back through the Trading Post, so if you miss out on an item the first time around, you should have another chance at a later date.
The items in stock for May include an adorable mechanical dog pet and a nifty red bicorne hat for all you pirate cosplayers out there. The bonus reward for the month is a Savage Green Battle Turtle mount. There is also a new set of activities you can peruse in the Adventure Guide for ways to earn more Trader’s Tender (up to 1000 total for the month). Don’t forget to check your Collector’s Cache for currency you’ve already earned!
New items are in full bloom at the Trading Post for the month of May. You’re bound to find something new to add to your collection.
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.
Here’s What’s in Stock for May
This Month’s Bonus Reward
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 Savage Green Battle Turtle Mount.
Activities
How it Works
GET TENDER EVERY MONTH
At the first 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.
WHAT A TENDER MOMENT
As a way of saying “Thank you” to the community for continuing to play World of Warcraft with us, we are awarding a bonus 500 Trader’s Tender to players who purchase Dragonflight and add it to their account†. This bonus Trader’s Tender will also be rewarded retroactively to players who have already purchased Dragonflight. Players can collect this bonus Trader’s Tender from their Collector’s Cache.
