Introduction to the Trading Post

If you're new to the World of Warcraft and you're exploring the Dragonflight expansion, one feature you may want to explore is the Trading Post. This comprehensive guide by WowCarry provides all the information you need to effectively use the Trading Post.

Understanding the Trading Post

The Trading Post is a unique feature that introduces a currency called Trader's tender. The Trading Post can be found in the Mage District of Stormwind and the valley of strength in Orgrimmar. The inventory of the Trading Post changes on the first of every month, offering a wide range of items both old and new. You might come across previously retired mounts, recolors of transmog never put in the game, and entirely new items like Tiercel's Wing. If you worry about missing out, don't fret! Items that rotate out of stock will eventually return.

Earning and Using Traders Tender

Each month, players can earn up to 1,000 Traders tender. The first 500 Traders tender can be earned simply by logging into an actively subscribed account in good standing. The remaining 500 Traders tender can be earned by completing a variety of activities listed in the Travelers log tab in your Adventure Journal.

  • Activities for Earning Traders Tender

These activities cover a wide range of gameplay types. Some may coincide with your regular activities, while others may require you to engage in tasks related to upcoming holidays and events. Familiarize yourself with these activities early in the month to maximize your earnings. This entire process is account-wide, so all progress counts if you switch alts.

  • Utilizing Low-Level Alts

Low-level alts can be particularly useful for completing certain activities. For example, completing 50 dungeon bosses and 30 quests might be easier on these alts. Note, however, that legacy quests and legacy dungeons will not count towards these activities if you are max level. On the other hand, legacy raids will count towards the 25 raid boss activity.

Completing the Progress Bar

Once you complete the progress bar by accumulating 1,000 points, you will have earned your extra 500 Traders tender and that month's special reward. Return to the trading post and loot these rewards from the nearby chest. Now, with your currency, you're ready to shop at the Trading Post. Be cautious, though, as you won't be able to afford everything. Choose wisely, and remember you can freeze a specific item you want for the next month to save up for it. Also, remember that any unspent Trader's tender will roll over to the next month.

Final Thoughts

That's your comprehensive guide to the Trading Post in the Dragonflight expansion for World of Warcraft. Whether you're a new player or a seasoned veteran, this guide should help you make the most out of this unique feature. As always, thank you so much for reading.
