Guides Wowhead: Championing the Argent Tournament · wow.gg: Swift Burgundy Wolf

Before you go

  • Champion of Orgrimmar: 3 days of Aspirant dailies, then 5 days of Valiant of Orgrimmar dailies. A character whose first city is not Orgrimmar champions its own city first and Orgrimmar after it: 13 days · about 2.5 h over 8 days
  • Exalted with Orgrimmar, unless the buyer is an orc: the Orgrimmar Tabard worn in dungeons turns their reputation into Orgrimmar's, and a Champion's Writ, taken instead of a Champion's Purse from the Champion dailies, can be handed in for city reputation · about 3.5 h
  • 5 Champion's Seals, which the journal text does not mention (covered by the 10 awarded on reaching Champion)
  • 500 gold

In all: about 6 h of play, spread over 8 days, 500 gold, starting from nothing.

Getting there

Freka Bloodaxe, Sunreaver Pavilion, Argent Tournament

/way Icecrown 76.4 24.2
From Orgrimmar about 1.7 min of travel
  1. Take the portal from Pathfinder's Den to Crystalsong Forest*
  2. Fly the rest of the way

/way is for the TomTom addon. Travel times are estimates: flying at 55 yards a second in a straight line and 30 seconds for a portal. A star marks a portal that needs a quest or other unlock done first.

Notes and sources

Wowhead has two items that teach this mount, both sold by Freka Bloodaxe for 500 gold (tooltips as read in 2026): 46749 carries no reputation line, 46757 reads "Requires Orgrimmar - Exalted". As for the Great Red Elekk, that is taken here as the usual rule for racial mounts: an orc is sold the first, any other Horde race needs Exalted for the second. Which item she shows to whom was not confirmed in the game.

The guides still disagree: Wowhead's Argent Tournament guide (updated 2022) says these mounts unlock on becoming an Exalted Champion of the city, while wow.gg's guide (2026) asks only for an orc or a Champion of Orgrimmar.

Wowhead's guide gives Orgrimmar as the first city of orcs, goblins, pandaren, vulpera and Mag'har orcs; whether a Mag'har orc counts as an orc for the reputation check is undocumented.

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