Key Takeaways
- The Blademaster's Stones set is five chest-slot transmogs (Azure, Crimson, Suntouched, Violet, and Lively), each 200 Trader's Tender, added in Patch 10.2 and themed on the Warcraft III Blademaster.
- The datamine resolved in full: all five variants rotated through the Trading Post between December 2023 and September 2024, and none stayed unpriced.
- The set pairs with the Blademaster's Greatswords (Triumphant and Shadowy, 225 Tender each, first offered March 2023), later joined by the Loyal and Thundering recolors.
- Every piece is cosmetic and account-wide, with no faction, race, or class requirement.
- The chest originally left the torso bare; Patch 11.0.2 in August 2024 added matching chestwraps for female characters.
- The Trading Post is a monthly cosmetic vendor in Stormwind and Orgrimmar; players earn about 1,000 Trader's Tender a month (500 automatic plus up to 500 from the Traveler's Log), and unspent Tender rolls over.
What started as a set of test-realm datamines turned into a steady rollout, so here is how the Blademaster gear actually landed.
The Blademaster's Stones Chest Set
The Blademaster's Stones are five recolors of the same chest appearance: a wreath of stone beads that leaves the torso bare, built to echo the Warcraft III Blademaster hero. The in-game flavor text leans into that, reading "Stones worn by Jubei in the Third War." All five cost 200 Trader's Tender and carry no faction, race, or class restriction.
| Variant | Price | First offered |
|---|---|---|
| Blademaster's Azure Stones | 200 Tender | December 2023 |
| Blademaster's Suntouched Stones | 200 Tender | January 2024 |
| Blademaster's Crimson Stones | 200 Tender | February 2024 |
| Blademaster's Violet Stones | 200 Tender | April 2024 |
| Blademaster's Lively Stones | 200 Tender | September 2024 |
At the time of the original datamine only the Azure variant had a confirmed price, which fed a lot of "which ones will actually cost Tender?" speculation. That question answered itself: every variant landed at the same flat 200 Tender as it cycled into a monthly rotation.
The Matching Blademaster's Greatswords
The chest set was designed to sit alongside the Blademaster's Greatswords, two-handed swords that had already appeared in the Trading Post. The Triumphant Blademaster's Greatsword and the Shadowy Blademaster's Greatsword were first offered in March 2023 at 225 Trader's Tender each.
The early write-ups guessed that more recolors were "waiting to be unleashed," and that guess came true. A Loyal Blademaster's Greatsword followed in November 2023, and a green-tinted Blademaster's Thundering Greatsword arrived in December 2023, the latter a natural match for the green Lively Stones chest.
A Later Fix for the Bare-Chest Look
The set's bare-torso design was flattering on some models and awkward on others, and the original coverage flagged exactly that. Blizzard eventually addressed it: Patch 11.0.2 in August 2024 added matching chestwraps so the Blademaster's Stones render properly on female character models rather than leaving the chest exposed. It was a small change, but it turned a showpiece transmog into one that worked cleanly across the roster.
How the Trading Post and Trader's Tender Work
Every Blademaster piece is bought from the Trading Post, the monthly cosmetic vendor in Stormwind and Orgrimmar introduced in early 2023. Purchases use Trader's Tender, an account-wide currency that carries over month to month.
Under normal play a character earns roughly 1,000 Tender each month: 500 arrive automatically, and up to 500 more come from filling the monthly Traveler's Log activity bar. Because the shop rotates, each Blademaster variant was only buyable during the month it was featured, though Trading Post items typically return in later rotations.
