Re-introducing sought-after and rare World of Warcraft items that were previously discontinued, these exclusive collectibles may soon be accessible in a significantly more attainable location.
World of Warcraft may be bringing back exclusive items like the Reins of the Kor’kron War Wolf via the Trading Post. If it does, World of Warcraft would set a new precedent by allowing rare items like Ahead of the Curve achievement mounts to be obtained after their windows of exclusivity close.
Certain items in World of Warcraft are locked behind difficult challenges and achievements, such as Ahead of the Curve – the seasonal Feat of Strength awarded for clearing a Heroic raid while it is current endgame content. These achievements often reward incredible mounts, such as the Reins of the Kor’kron War Wolf, obtained from the Siege of Orgrimmar raid at the end of Mists of Pandaria.
However, evidence suggests this prestigious mount may be returning to the game in another fashion. On a recent build of the World of Warcraft Public Test Realm, the Reins of the Kor’kron War Wolf received a Trader’s Tender cost. The currency for the new Trading Post feature, Trader’s Tender costs are usually only added to items that appear in the monthly catalog. The War Wolf has an exorbitant cost of 7,899, which is almost certainly a placeholder, but the fact it is there at all suggests it may be obtainable again for the first time in nearly 10 years through the Trading Post.
WoW content creator MrGM also discovered that the Ichabod pet also got a placeholder Trader’s Tender cost in the same patch. Unlike the Kor’kron War Wolf, this scarecrow was obtainable in late 2022, earned by gifting two subscriptions via the Support a Streamer program World of Warcraft ran on Twitch. This could mean Ichabod might return via the Trading Post in the future as well.
