5 Best Rewards in WoW Trading Post – September 2024

While in most Western countries September is usually synonymous with going back to school (or college, or wherever else you study) or gathering harvest, in WoW it's all about pirates and drinking beer this time! The trading post is bursting with Plunderstorm recolors as well as Brewfest-themed items. If you've missed your chance to get them last time, the time to act is now!

In this text we take a look at 5 most notable items in September 2024's trading post! Let's see what truly can't be missed!

Now this is some display of luxury for sure! This crocolisk's saddle is decorated with gold coins, there are treasure chests and gilded items glued to it too... Using this mount is like riding on a pile of precious stuff! And that's the whole idea behind it: a plunderlord must make it clear to everyone around him how wealthy and fashionable they are!

While ground mounts might not be among the most useful things in the game right now, getting this thing to your collection is simply a must! We don't get too many swaggy mounts like this!

This is not the first shark hat we get to see in the Trading Post: the blue version of it was available back in April. But if you missed it or want to gather the whole collection of color variations, here's this mesmerizing brownish shark hat for you to enjoy! And it's very affordable, so buying it won't cost you much extra effort.

Another memento from the Plunderstorm event. Claudius is a recolored version of Glamrok, a badass king crab that was one of the apex rewards you could get by improving your renown with Keg Leg's Crew. This one has paler... ehm, skin? Also, the gems in its crown are purple while Glamrok had them blue. However, it's not just the color palette and the name that make them different. Surprisingly, the skill set of Claudius is noticeably different from that of his fellow crab. Here's the table that shows their skills:

SKILL	CLAUDIUS	GLAMROK
Bubble Blast	❌	✅
Cute Face	✅	❌
Dazzle	✅	✅
Deep Snap	❌	✅
Grasp	✅	❌
Greed Before Need	❌	✅
Needle Claw	✅	❌
Pinch	✅	❌
Shell Fortress	✅	✅
Spiked Shell	❌	✅

So despite being visually very similar and belonging to the Aquatic type, they only share 2 abilities. Their max stats are also different:

STAT	CLAUDIUS	GLAMROK
Health	1'563	1'749 🔼
Power	293 🔼	257
Speed	244	249 🔼

Claudius is less tanky and, surprisingly, less fast but only marginally. However, it's obviously stronger than Glamrok and it shows that they can actually sorta work together and make up for one another's shortcomings quite effectively.

Oh, it's this time of the year again... Not Christmas yet! It's Brewfest, the Warcraft version of Oktoberfest! If you want to celebrate this wonderful holiday and incorporate some of its symbols into your gear, look no further than this shield! If your class can wear shields, that is!

The shield is a recolored version of Orange Brewfest Bulwark which is a seasonal reward obtainable at Brewfest itself. The difference is just colors and it's all quite straightforward: this one has green flags and darker wood while the other has orange flags and lighter wood.
