Timewalking: Wrath of the Lich King
For one week, players can participate in many activities during the Timewalking Event: Wrath of the Lich King. This moment is an excellent opportunity to earn Timewarped Badges, increase those Wrath Reputations, and complete Timewalking Dungeons and the Timewalking Raid: Ulduar.
For more information, continue reading!
Timewarped Badges:
By completing activities during a Timewalking event, you can earn Timewarped Badges. Each Timewalking Event has a designated vendor for that expansion. In this instance, Timewalking: Wrath of the Lich King, you’ll have access to the vendor: Auzin.
You can find Auzin within Runeweaver Square of Dalaran, Northrend!
Timewalking Vendor – Auzin:
To interact with Auzin and view the items for sale, you must be level 30 or above! Auzin sells items from Timewarped Gear, Heirloom Upgrade Tokens, Reputation Commendations, and more.
Continue reading for a brief description of what Auzin sells.
Timewarped Gear:
For 25 Timewarped Badges, you can obtain a Neck, Chest piece, Glove, Ring, or Boots. Alternatively, for 50 Timewarped Badges, you can purchase a Trinket. The item level of each piece will scale down to your character’s level!
Toys:
There are three Toys available.
Mount:
The highlight of the items available is the mount: Bridle of the Ironbound Wraithcharger. This big ticket item will set you back 5000 Timewarped Badges.
Reputation Commendations:
For 50 Timewarped Badges each, you can purchase seven different Commendations. Once purchased and used, you’ll earn 500 Reputation towards your desired Faction.
Here’s a list of available Commendations.
- Commendation of the Alliance Vanguard
- Commendation of the Argent Crusade
- Commendation of the Ebon Blade
- Commendation of the Horde Expedition
- Commendation of the Kirin Tor
- Commendation of the Sons of Hodir
- Commendation of the Wyrmrest Accord
Remember that during the event, the buff: Sign of the Scourge will give you a 50% increase in reputation gains from combat and quests; this also counts towards reputation turn-ins. For example, handing in Relic of Ulduar will earn you an extra 50%. The buff appears bugged and is only available for players level 60 and above!
Tip: If you’re trying to obtain the mounts via the Faction: The Sons of Hodir, the Commendation of the Sons of Hodir will assist you in reaching Revered and Exalted.
Heirloom Upgrade Tokens:
Although you can interact with the vendor at level 30, you cannot view or purchase the Heirloom Upgrade Tokens. You will need to be at a higher level. At this time, I’m unsure what level this is.
I can see the Tokens on my level 60 and above characters.
Bag of Fishing Treasure & Small Spice Bag:
If you have no interest in the items above, you can opt for two bags that offer a variety of things that may interest you. For potential gold-making purposes, consider purchasing the Bag of Fishing Treasures. This bag has a 1.1% chance of containing a Companion Pet: Strand Crawler.
Although the Companion Pet is Bind on Pickup, you can learn, cage, and post the Battle Pet at the Auction House. The Strand Crawler at level 25 can fetch around 6000 gold. Other items available from the Bag of Fishing Treasures include.
- Bone Fishing Pole
- High Test Eternium Fishing Line
- Unusual Compass
- Jeweled Fishing Pole
- Recipe: Captain Rumsey’s Lager
- Strand Crawler
- Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat
Alternatively, you can opt for the Small Spice Bag. This bag contains mainly Northern Spices but can include the following.
Timewalking Dungeons:
Pick up the Quest: A Frozen Path Through Time via Kazra in Valdrakken. Earn a piece of ilvl 402 gear for defeating five Timewalking Raid bosses (via Timewalking Raid: Ulduar) or five Timewalking Dungeons.
To enlist in Timewalking Dungeons, open Group Finder and sign up for Random Timewalking Dungeons. It appears that the option to queue below level 70 is not available!
Available Dungeons:
- Azjol-Nerub
- Gundrak
- Halls of Lightning
- The Forge of Souls
- The Nexus
- Utgarde Keep
Timewalking Raid – Ulduar:
Within the Runeweaver Square of Dalaran, Northrend, you will see the NPC: Vormu. She offers the Quest: Disturbance Detected: Ulduar. Completing the quest will reward you with 500 Timewarped Badges.
Although I can access the quest on my alt at level 60, you must be level 70 to queue. The loot from defeating bosses is scaled up to ilvl 389! Be aware that the Boss: Algalon, is unavailable within the Timewalking version of Ulduar.
Once you have created your group via Premade Groups, Raids – Legacy, visit Vormu in Runeweaver Square of Dalaran, Northrend, to start the Raid. You will be teleported to the instance!

Timewalking Twinks:
Thanks to an awesome community of like-minded players/theory crafters, it’s possible to obtain/craft gear that scales incredibly well in Timewalking content. Equipping the best gear will make you very powerful, so much so you’re similar to a Twink. For those unsure, a Twink was a player that would turn off experience gains to equip best in slot gear at a level range that would be more power to normal players in that bracket.
Today, Blizzard put a stop to Twinks thanks to giving them their own bracket in Battlegrounds and affecting experience gains for other players within a party farming experience – alternatively known as level boosting. However, thanks to how Timewalking scaling works and how every player is scaled down to a level/item level appropriate to the content, the Twink is back!

Twinks and GoldMaking:
If you read the Timewalking Spreadsheet I shared above, you’ll notice a lot of crafted gear. This is how I managed to hit 10m gold in one week following the initial release of the Mage Tower. Some of the value has gone, thanks to the region-wide Auction House for consumables. Thankfully, depending on your realm, there may still be value in certain crafts.
Carefully read the additional Information panel within the Timewalking Spreadsheet; you may need to add Crafter’s Mark, Relic of the Past, or specific Essences.
Here’s a list of some of the items I craft and sell. There’s also potential in flipping the Queen’s Garnets, as these are difficult to farm!
- Legion BoE Legendaries
- Shadowlands/Dragonflight Rings
- Enchants
- Queens Garnet (Farming Dragon Soul)
- Gems
