Summary

World of Warcraftplayers are reportedly receiving an extra 500 Trader’s Tender for completing their Adventurer’s Log tasks for January 2024. While this could be a bug, it seems more likely thatWorld of Warcraftdecided to surprise players with an extra bonus after the lukewarm reaction to the Trading Post reward for January.

The Trading Post is a featureWorld of Warcraftadded last year that allows players to complete select tasks to earn a special reward each month, along with a stipend of Trader’s Tender used to purchase items from a rotating stock of cosmetics. In December, it revealed the Golden Mobile Timepiece, a stylish wristwatch cosmetic, as the free reward for January, but manyWorld of Warcraftplayers were not impressedby the simplicity of the item in comparison to those from previous months.

However, fans discovered a surprise when they finished their Traveler’s Log tasks for January. When players complete their logs, they receive 500 extra Trader’s Tender in addition to the Golden Mobile Timepiece. This means players can earn a total of 1500 Trader’s Tender from having a subscription and completing the requisite tasks, a 50% increase from a typical month. This is a welcome bonus considering the steadily-rising prices ofTrading Post items inWorld of Warcraftover the last year.

There has been no official announcement about this new gift, so it remains to be seen if it was intentional or a glitch. The extra 500 Trader’s Tender are also not listed in the Traveler’s Log as a reward, though players are still receiving it in-game. That said, most think Blizzard added it in response to feedback aboutWorld of Warcraft’s trading post catalog for January. If it was an error,World of Warcraftwill still probably keep the bonus currency, especially considering the outrage removing it would spark with how many fans have already earned it.

Regardless of why they received it, players are excited about getting this extra bonus from the Trading Post. This month’s catalogue is full of excellent cosmetics, and fans who haven’t been saving their Trader’s Tender will be glad to be able to pick up another item or two because of this surprise.
