Beastlord’s Warwolf looks as though it ought to come charging out of Blackrock Foundry. Its appearance deliberately recalls Darmac’s beasts, but the collection route leads somewhere much less dramatic: a Timewalking vendor on Ashran.

That distinction saves a lot of wasted raid clears. The wolf is a planned currency purchase during Warlords of Draenor Timewalking, so the useful questions are how to build the badge balance, which faction hub to visit, and when the right vendor is available.

Quick Answer

Purchase Beastlord’s Warwolf for 5,000 Timewarped Badges during Warlords of Draenor Timewalking. Alliance players buy it from Tempra in Stormshield, around 37.2, 72.6. Horde players visit Kronnus in Warspear, around 42.8, 54.6. Both hubs are on Ashran, Draenor.

The teaching item is 167895, and the mount spell is 294569. It remains a recurring event purchase rather than a retired seasonal achievement reward. The correct Timewalking week and enough badges are the acquisition gates; killing Beastlord Darmac is not one of them.

Mount Overview

This is a substantial ground wolf with the muscular, heavy-headed shape associated with Draenor’s beasts. Its warm coloration and fierce outline work particularly well with an orc hunter, a rugged warrior, or a character whose armor already looks at home around an Iron Horde encampment.

The name and visual connection belong to Warlords of Draenor, but the mount was introduced as a Timewalking reward in patch 8.1.5. The expansion associated with its appearance and the patch that made it collectible are different pieces of its history.

For collectors, the advantage is predictability. You do not need to estimate how many boss kills a low drop chance might take. Once the currency is ready and the appropriate event returns, the mount is a direct purchase. The inconvenience is waiting for that event if you miss the available week.

How to Get Beastlord’s Warwolf

Confirm Warlords of Draenor Timewalking is active

Open the in-game calendar and check the current or upcoming Timewalking event. You specifically need Warlords of Draenor. Another expansion’s Timewalking week may let you earn the same currency, but it does not activate Tempra and Kronnus as the Warlords vendors.

A Timewalking dungeon option in Group Finder tells you that some Timewalking content is available. Read the expansion name before traveling to Ashran. This is the first thing to check if a guide sends you to the correct location and the merchant still seems to be missing.

Build a balance of 5,000 Timewarped Badges

Complete available Timewalking dungeons and collect the badge rewards. You can prepare the currency during other Timewalking rotations; the Warwolf does not require a separate Warlords-only type of badge. Keep enough available for the actual buying character when the purchase window opens.

During the Warlords event, loot the final boss of your first completed Timewalking dungeon for the quest item associated with The Shimmering Crystal. Accept its quest and return it to the appropriate event NPC. Do not leave the item unaccepted in your bags and then wonder why the turn-in has not increased your balance.

The crystal turn-in is an additional currency reward, not a free mount quest. You still need the full 5,000 badges to make the purchase. Likewise, completing a weekly dungeon objective does not automatically select the wolf as your reward.

Go to your faction’s Ashran hub

Alliance players should travel to Stormshield; Horde players should travel to Warspear. Available capital-city portals to Ashran provide a convenient approach if you already have access to those routes. Otherwise, use your established Draenor travel network to reach the faction hub.

You do not need to enter an Ashran PvP battle. These merchants are in the faction settlements, and the relevant payment is Timewarped Badges, not Honor, Marks of Honor, or a Vicious Saddle.

Buy the wolf and learn the item

Speak to Tempra at approximately 37.2, 72.6 in Stormshield or Kronnus at approximately 42.8, 54.6 in Warspear. Select Beastlord’s Warwolf from the merchant inventory and pay 5,000 Timewarped Badges.

Use the mount item from your bags, then verify the unlock in the Mount Journal. The vendor also offers Beastlord’s Irontusk, which is a separate mount with its own 5,000-badge price. Buying the wolf does not include the elekk.

Location

• World: Draenor.
• Area: Ashran faction settlements.
• Alliance destination: Tempra, Stormshield, around 37.2, 72.6.
• Horde destination: Kronnus, Warspear, around 42.8, 54.6.
• Availability condition: the Warlords of Draenor Timewalking event.

Use the local settlement map for the coordinates. Stormshield and Warspear have their own map layouts, so copying a point onto the broad Draenor map is not a reliable way to find the merchant.

The model’s Blackrock Foundry connection is useful flavor, not a location instruction. Going to the raid, changing its difficulty, or clearing Darmac on several characters will not substitute for visiting the Timewalking vendor.

Requirements

The purchase requires 5,000 Timewarped Badges and access to the correct event merchant. It does not require Exalted with a Draenor faction, a garrison building, a raid achievement, or a profession.

• Have the required badge balance available to the purchasing character.
• Visit during Warlords of Draenor Timewalking.
• Use the vendor appropriate to your faction.
• Learn the purchased mount item on an eligible character.

The faction distinction concerns where you shop. It does not turn the wolf into a Horde-exclusive collection reward: Alliance players have Tempra’s purchase route. You do not need a faction change to obtain the appearance.

Dungeon queue eligibility and mount acquisition should also be kept separate. A character that cannot yet use a particular dungeon queue may need another way to prepare the currency, but there is no separate requirement to defeat Darmac just because his name is attached to the beast.

Farming Tips

Save before the correct week arrives. A prepared badge balance turns this into a quick shopping trip. Spending all your currency on toys during an earlier rotation can leave you running more dungeons than intended when the wolf finally becomes available.

Keep the crystal quest in your plan. The once-per-event turn-in gives a useful boost alongside dungeon rewards. Older farming advice sometimes treats every alt’s turn-in as an identical reward; current account-level reward differences mean you should not build a precise timetable around that assumption.

Plan both Beastlord purchases together. Warwolf and Irontusk cost 10,000 badges in total if you want both. If you only have 5,000, choose the one you prefer before opening the merchant window. There is no advantage to buying the other one first.

Do not rely on a universal dungeon count. Your starting balance, the quests available, and the rewards attached to your runs all affect the remaining work. Track the actual badge balance rather than following an old claim that a fixed number of runs always finishes the mount.

Keep different reward systems separate. Timewarped Badges are not the Bronze used by Remix events. A remembered Bronze vendor offering a similar-looking mount does not replace this purchase, and ordinary gold cannot pay the listed badge cost.

Is This Mount Still Obtainable?

Yes, through its recurring Warlords of Draenor Timewalking vendor window. That makes it event-limited in availability, not permanently retired. If the event is inactive, the practical next step is saving badges and checking the next Warlords entry in your regional game calendar.

No fixed future date is needed to understand the route. Timewalking schedules can change, and a previously published calendar may describe an older rotation. The current in-game listing is the relevant timetable for planning your visit.

Is It Worth the Badges?

The Warwolf is a sensible target for collectors who like Draenor wolves but would rather make steady progress than camp a rare. It offers a recognizable beast with a straightforward endpoint: earn the badges, wait for the vendor, buy the mount.

The main competition is everything else sold for the same currency. A collector still missing several Timewalking mounts has to decide whether this wolf’s appearance matters more than an elekk, dragonhawk, or another reward from a different rotation. There is no collection-wide rule that makes the most expensive-looking beast the best first purchase.

My verdict: prioritize it if the heavy Draenor wolf silhouette suits your characters. If you already own several similar wolves and are saving for a very different model, keeping the badges for another rotation is equally reasonable.

Transmog Pairings

Weathered metal, leather straps, fur trim, and weapons with a practical battlefield shape sit comfortably beside this wolf. An orc-themed outfit is an obvious match, but a dwarf hunter or a heavily equipped ranger can give it a convincing expedition role as well.

The mount is visually substantial, so a restrained outfit can work better than trying to match every accent. Let the beast provide the aggressive shape and use your armor’s broad colors to tie the rider into the scene. You do not need a complete raid set from Blackrock Foundry for the pairing to make sense.

Similar Mounts

• Beastlord’s Irontusk: the companion Timewalking purchase for collectors who prefer an elekk and want another beast associated with Darmac.
• Ironhoof Destroyer: a separate Blackrock Foundry collection goal for players interested in the broader beast theme; its acquisition is not the Warwolf’s vendor route.
• Armored Frostwolf: worth comparing if you want a Draenor wolf with a more armored presentation and a different progression path.
• Trained Snarler: another Draenor wolf option for someone who enjoys the expansion’s mount families and garrison-era collection projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Beastlord Darmac drop this mount?

No. Buy the Warwolf from the Warlords Timewalking vendor. Its connection to Darmac is visual and thematic.

How many badges does it cost?

5,000 Timewarped Badges. Beastlord’s Irontusk costs another 5,000 if you want both.

Where does an Alliance character buy it?

From Tempra in Stormshield on Ashran, around 37.2, 72.6, during Warlords Timewalking.

Where is the Horde vendor?

Kronnus is in Warspear on Ashran, around 42.8, 54.6, during the same event.

Can badges earned in another expansion’s Timewalking be used?

Yes. The payment is the shared Timewarped Badge currency, although the Warlords vendor needs the appropriate event window.

Do I need a high-level garrison?

No. Garrison development is not a purchase requirement for this mount.

Why is Kronnus or Tempra missing?

First check whether Warlords of Draenor Timewalking is active and whether you are in the correct faction settlement.

Is the Warwolf a flying mount?

No. It is a ground mount. Buy it for the wolf appearance rather than expecting a flying form.

Final Thoughts

Keep 5,000 badges ready, watch for Warlords Timewalking, and visit Tempra or Kronnus in the appropriate Ashran hub. That is the complete acquisition route. The impressive beast comes from a currency plan, not another week of hoping Darmac drops the right loot.
