World of Warcraft 20th Anniversary: How to Acquire the Gilded Brutosaur Mount

For a limited time, World of Warcraft players had the opportunity to earn the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur, a mount that famously included its own Auction House vendor. While this mount is no longer accessible through traditional in-game methods and can only be found at the Black Market Auction House, players seeking a mobile Auction House experience will be pleased to know that the Brutosaur is making a return—though it comes with a hefty price tag.

The Gilded Brutosaur is essentially a reimagined version of the Caravan Brutosaur from Battle for Azeroth, now adorned with a new design celebrating the rich history of WoW. However, obtaining this new mount requires a different approach: it must be purchased directly from the Blizzard Shop, either using a WoW Token balance or real money.

Gilded Brutosaur Mount Details and Vendors

This revamped mount features dazzling gems embedded in its gilded armor, each representing the various expansions released over the past two decades. The Gilded Brutosaur is sought after not just for its intricate design but also for its functionality—it grants immediate access to the Auction House and a mailbox as soon as you mount it.

When summoned, this ground-only mount towers over other players, boasting two interactive vendors attached to its impressive, golden form. The Auction House functions just like the traditional one, allowing you to buy items and have them mailed directly to you instantly. Plus, there's a Mail vendor on the Brutosaur for picking up your purchased goods without delay.

When paired with other service mounts in WoW, the Gilded Brutosaur enhances the number of vendors you can call upon in the field, eliminating the need to return to a capital city. However, this incredible convenience comes at a significant cost.

How to Get the Gilded Brutosaur Mount

The Trader's Gilded Brutosaur is exclusively available in the Battle.net shop and can be acquired with either real money or Blizzard Account balance. The price for this mount is set at $90, making it the most expensive mount ever offered in the Blizzard store.

Alternatively, players can use WoW Tokens, valued at approximately $20 in Battle.net funds or a varying amount of Gold in-game, to help offset the cost of the Gilded Brutosaur. To purchase the mount using WoW Tokens, you’ll need enough Gold to buy five tokens, which together will meet the $90 price.

To acquire a WoW Token in-game, head to the Auction House (or borrow a Gilded Brutosaur owner's vendor) and click the "WoW Token" tab on the left side. This will display the current Gold price for a WoW Token.

The value of the WoW Token fluctuates, especially when popular items like the Gilded Brutosaur are introduced to the in-game store. Typically, the price ranges from 200,000 Gold to 400,000 Gold.

As of this article's publication—just days after the Gilded Brutosaur was made available—the price jumped from around 200,000 Gold to approximately 300,000 Gold each. Therefore, patience and market awareness are key to conserving your Gold.

To purchase the Gilded Brutosaur without spending real money, you will need to gather five WoW Tokens, leaving you with $10 remaining in your Battle.net balance. This balance can be saved for future expansions, used for game time, or applied to other exclusive mounts that may be released later.
