Notes and sources

Horde characters only. The journal's cost of 15 is Marks of Honor (wiki; the price since patch 7.0.3, before that 2,000 Honor Points). Marks are bound to the Warband since patch 11.0.2, so they can be earned on any character and spent by a Horde one. No PvP rank or reputation is asked for.

No source gives how many Marks a single win awards, which is why the two time estimates given here differ so much. The wiki's Mark of Honor page does not name the vendor of Algari Distinguishment and does not confirm that Seltherex still sells the Orboreal one.

Raider Bork's coordinates are Wowhead's (41.4-41.8, 72.2-73.6); wow.gg gives 41.6, 72.9. This guide's notes for the Black War Kodo list four more mounts from him at the same price (Black War Kodo, Black War Wolf, Black War Raptor, Red Skeletal Warhorse); that list was not read again here.

The wiki has the mount at level 17 with Apprentice Riding since patch 9.0.1; wow.gg says level 20. Two items are tied to this mount, 29225 and 34129: the wiki's page for the mount is item 34129, and Wowhead's tooltip for 29225 has the same vendor and price. Wowhead's page for this mount was not opened; only its tooltips were read.

Confidence in this entry: high. Looked up in 2026.
