The December Trading Post Is Cool as Ice

Winter has arrived at the December Trading Post*, and while things may get frosty, you'll find a variety of transmog appearances to bring you cheer. This month, cuddle up in the Ensemble: Purple Snugglefin Murloc Romper (we look forward to your onesie parades).

Mind your Tender—while the festive season brings a multitude of merriment and cheer, the fun doesn't end there. We'll be celebrating the second anniversary of the Trading Post in February with an extension to the Reward Bar, allowing you to earn an additional 500 Trader's Tender through a variety of activities and expand your spending power on several selections—including previously released transmogs, mounts, pets, toys, and previous monthly rewards.

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.

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.

Yet another completely underwhelming preview. I'm drowning in Tenders.

[vilememory]

People either say not good enough or it is too good and should have been a .003 percent drop off mythic only. How many mythic plus dungeons did this cost us?!?!

[SinR]

this year's Trading Post has cost us 12 Raid Tiers at this point

[Foolicious]

I don't know if im not the right target audience, but the preview never gets me exited for the trading post. I always find something to buy, but seeing them promote those butterfly wings for the eight time this year is... meh.

[Kellorion]

Frostwolves??!?!






Frostwolves arent Alliance, Doomplate isnt blue, Thrall is Horde/Neutral!

Stop gentrifying the Horde.

[leothar]

7 items? Where's the rest?

Frostwolves arent Alliance, Doomplate isnt blue, Thrall is Horde/Neutral!

Blizzard messed up in the article, the Horde earmuffs are red and the Alliance ones are called "Lion's Crest Earmuffs"

[thunderdragon2]

not much for me to buy in december either 2 months in a row for the extra tendies wonder what blizz is cooking up for jan???

[Alanar]

Ye, nothing to buy really..

[Alayea]

It's good to finally have a themed shield. That being said, I would have liked a plain candy mint shield over the overwrought one they came up with.

[EverDash]

Another lazy Trading post month, brought to you by Blizzard's Autopilot.

[Elanore Maroth]

I am getting the shield and earmuffs for some fun winter transmogs.

[Doffen]

Those earmuffs are awesome. More transmogs like that please. Like, a headset would be nice too. Its 2024 in Azeroth as well.

[DeltrusDisc]

LOL this is a joke

[Palapop]

[Klingers]

I'm starting to think the Trading Post devs are cribbing off the Overwatch team with all these half-arsed recolours...

[Capultro]

a lot of stupid things...this game is for little childs?or what? im waiting for umbra crescent yet...all this stupid things,god....i cant believe that with all this money,they only do this shit...

[Calfredd]

a lot of stupid things...this game is for little childs?or what? im waiting for umbra crescent yet...all this stupid things,god....i cant believe that with all this money,they only do this shit...

And yet you'll still play anyway because that's how you people are; complaining about the most insignificant of things but still playing regardless.
