Fashioning your character is a large part of any MMORPG, and World of Warcraft is no exception. As expected of a live service game in the current day and age, cosmetic accessorizing is often bound to microtransactions. While real money can often buy you the most premium-looking intricate transmog sets in World of Warcraft, there is still a good deal of free cosmetics in the game.

The Trading Post system caters to those who want to accessorize without having to pay out of their pockets. Added to World of Warcraft Dragonflight in patch 10.0.5, the Trading Post presents a series of cosmetic items ranging from armor transmogs to pets for any character of your choosing.

To interact with this system, you can go to any one of two Trading Posts: Zen'shiri in Orgrimmar and T&W in Stormwind. The entire Trading Post stock refreshes on the first day of every month.

Anything that is available in World of Warcraft's Trading Post inventory can be purchased for its unique currency, Trader's Tender. There are several ways to obtain it in the game.

First and foremost, you can get 500 Trader's Tender as a welcome gift whenever you purchase World of Warcraft Dragonflight. Even though you do not strictly require Dragonflight to obtain the currency or partake in the Trading Post transactions, a lot of the activities are related to it.

Secondly, all players will obtain a free gift bag of 500 Trader's Tender once every month. Every time you log into World of Warcraft for the first time in a month, the game will direct you towards the refreshed Trader's Post inventory with an introductory sidequest. You will obtain this free monthly bounty as a reward for completing the quest.

Otherwise, the primary way to obtain Trader's Tenders is to carry out the monthly Trader's Post activities in World of Warcraft. These quests, some of which are quite easy to complete, give you Trader's Tenders ranging from 25 up to 100 upon completion.

For this month, the quests are:

  • Defeat Arthas.
  • Defeat Illidan.
  • Successfully complete eight Solo Dragonriding Challenge Courses.
  • Complete one Dragonriding Challenge Course.
  • Complete five Dragonriding Challenge Courses.
  • Complete 10 Dragonriding Challenge Courses.
