In this article, we delve into recent speculations surrounding the return of prestige items earned from challenging content in World of Warcraft via the Trading Post. Many fans expressed concern about the reemergence of exclusive skill-based rewards, such as the Kor’kron War Wolf. However, the game developers have put these rumors to rest, ensuring that these coveted items remain exclusive to players who accomplished exceptional feats at the time of their release.
A point of discussion has been the prestigious achievements like Ahead of the Curve and Cutting Edge, earned by overcoming raids on Heroic and Mythic difficulty while they were endgame content. These achievements granted remarkable rewards for successful players. The appearance of a Trader’s Tender cost for the Kor’kron War Wolf on the Public Test Realm fueled suspicions of the Trading Post potentially offering these valuable items. The creators of World of Warcraft have since clarified their stance on the matter, reinforcing the exclusivity of these skill-based rewards.

Although Blizzard has confirmed that prestige rewards will not be making a return through the Trading Post, the company has not ruled out the possibility of these items appearing in other locations. Furthermore, Blizzard has only mentioned that skill-based collectibles will not be returning to the Trading Post, leaving open the possibility of other time-limited items making a comeback.
Some discovered Trader’s Tender costs on items, such as Ichabod (a pet from a previous Twitch Support a Streamer event) and the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur (a WoW gold sink reward more valuable than the one introduced in Love is in the Air), suggesting that these collectibles might still show up on the Trading Post in the future.
While certain players who acquired these exclusive items during their initial availability might be unhappy with the idea, the majority of WoW players would appreciate a new method to obtain them in the modern game. For example, the Siege of Orgrimmar raid in World of Warcraft is over a decade old, and many current fans of the game were not there to acquire mounts like the Kor’kron War Wolf. It remains to be seen if World of Warcraft will ever reintroduce these coveted items or if they will stay exclusive permanently.
In related news, players have an opportunity to obtain a different limited-time item for free. Until February 27, fans can access Cap’n Crackers, a cash shop pet removed from the store last year, via February’s Prime Gaming World of Warcraft reward.
