A Brown Riding Camel is a fitting souvenir of Uldum’s original tol’vir storyline. The darker coat gives it an everyday desert-travel look, and collecting it is a matter of reputation progress rather than finding the right rare spawn.

The purchase also pairs neatly with the tan version. Once your character meets the faction requirement, both mounts are available from the same quartermaster.

Quick Answer

Purchase Reins of the Brown Riding Camel from Blacksmith Abasi in Ramkahen, Uldum, at approximately 54.1, 33.3. You need Exalted reputation with Ramkahen. Its listed base cost is 100 gold, reduced to 80 gold by the normal Exalted discount.

If the reputation is unfinished, complete Ramkahen quests to Friendly, buy and equip the faction tabard, and farm eligible Cataclysm dungeons. Learn the purchased reins from your bags. This ground mount remains obtainable in Retail for both factions.

Mount Overview

The camel comes from Cataclysm and fits Uldum’s desert landscape. It has a brown coat, a recognizable camel stance, and riding gear rather than glowing effects or heavy mechanical parts.

There are no service passengers or special flight abilities attached to the purchase. The collection item is 63044, teaching the Brown Riding Camel. Its rarity is governed by how many players choose to finish the reputation, not by a hidden drop rate.

Buying It When You Already Have Exalted

Check the Ramkahen entry in your reputation panel. An eligible Exalted character can go straight to Blacksmith Abasi; there is no need to repeat the whole Uldum campaign or earn another camel first.

The quartermaster is in the settlement of Ramkahen, around 54.1, 33.3 on the Uldum map. Find the blacksmith area and open his merchant inventory. Select the brown reins, confirm the displayed price, and use the item after buying it.

The tan reins sit alongside them as a separate reward. If you want both, allow 160 gold for the pair at their normal Exalted prices. Buying one does not automatically grant the other.

How to Earn the Required Ramkahen Reputation

Establish Friendly through the original Uldum story

A character starting at Neutral should follow the Cataclysm-era Ramkahen questline. The introductory journey into Uldum begins with Easy Money near western Tanaris, then leads into the zone’s story.

Concentrate on quests that actually award Ramkahen reputation. Not every side story in the zone belongs to the faction. Once Friendly appears in the reputation panel, you can switch to dungeon championing without completing every Uldum quest.

Get the championing tabard from Abasi

Tabard of Ramkahen is sold by the same quartermaster at Friendly, with a base price of 1 gold. Buy it and equip it in the tabard slot.

This is an equipment effect. A tabard sitting in your bags, an appearance learned in the wardrobe, or a different faction’s tabard will not direct eligible dungeon reputation to Ramkahen.

Use repeatable Normal dungeon clears

For a high-level character, Normal Lost City of the Tol’vir provides a straightforward local option. The entrance is in southern Uldum at roughly 60.6, 64.4, on the north side of the lost city.

Enter directly with the tabard equipped, kill reputation-bearing enemies and bosses, and check the reputation messages. After clearing, leave and reset the Normal instance before another run.

Normal Halls of Origination is another eligible Cataclysm dungeon. Do not assume every Normal dungeon from the expansion qualifies identically; testing the first few reputation-bearing kills is better than discovering a mistake after several clears.

Heroic dungeons can award championing reputation as well, but their completed lockouts make them different from a repeatable Normal route. Very fast Normal runs can also run into the game’s instance entry limits.

Finish at Exalted and return to the quartermaster

Continue until the Ramkahen standing reaches Exalted, then buy the reins from Abasi. This is the final mount acquisition step. The dungeon bosses help earn reputation; they do not drop the brown reins themselves.

If you prefer slower progress, the unlocked dailies Fire From the Sky and Thieving Little Pluckers are additional sources. You do not have to wait for daily resets if you are actively farming eligible dungeons with the tabard.

Requirements and Timeline Troubleshooting

• Reputation: Ramkahen Exalted on the purchasing character.
• Price: 100 gold base, normally 80 at Exalted.
• Access: Blacksmith Abasi in Ramkahen, Uldum.
• Use: normal ground riding conditions on eligible characters.

The later Uldum Accord is a different faction. Its assault activities and rewards should not be substituted for Ramkahen progress.

If the original story or merchant setup seems absent, check the zone’s timeline. Zidormi in Ramkahen offers the pre-Black Empire assault version of Uldum. This can help when following Cataclysm quest instructions on a character currently seeing the later zone state.

Neither Archaeology nor a rare figurine is required. The Grey Riding Camel’s Dormus encounter is unrelated to the brown purchase.

Farming Tips

Use your most advanced Ramkahen character instead of restarting on an untouched alt. Clear efficiently, keep the tabard equipped, and check the reputation total before deciding how many more runs to do.

Exact run counts vary with cleared packs and bonuses, so a fixed “finished in an hour” promise is not useful. The dependable milestone is Exalted. Once learned, one purchase supplies the account collection for eligible characters.

Is It Still Obtainable?

Yes. This is a regular reputation vendor mount. Timewalking, holidays, monthly rotations, and special shop promotions are unnecessary for Abasi’s purchase.

Is It Worth Collecting?

It is particularly efficient if you already want the Tan Riding Camel: the same reputation unlocks both purchases. Choose it for the darker appearance or a complete Uldum camel set, rather than expecting rare-spawn prestige.

Collection Value

A simple brown mount can work well beside practical leather, expedition outfits, and muted desert colors. Preview it with your usual armor; understated mounts often suit a character better than a flashy reward collected only for its scarcity.

Similar Mounts

• Tan Riding Camel: the lighter Abasi purchase with the same Exalted requirement.
• Grey Riding Camel: a separate figurine-and-Dormus hunt for collectors pursuing rarer camel rewards.
• Springfur Alpaca: another desert-themed collectible with a distinct Uldum acquisition activity.

After learning it, eligible characters can use it through the account collection.

Final Thoughts

Finish Ramkahen, make one quartermaster visit, and learn the brown reins. If the tan version is missing too, buying it during the same stop completes the vendor pair.
