Finding Your Friendly Neighborhood Guild Vendor in World of Warcraft
Guild Vendors in World of Warcraft are your one-stop shop for rewards tied to your guild’s reputation and achievements. These NPCs, found in various capital cities, offer a range of items, from cosmetic novelties to powerful heirlooms, all unlocked as you and your guildmates progress. Their inventories remain hidden until you meet specific reputation or achievement requirements, adding an element of progression and reward to guild activities. So, where exactly do you find these purveyors of guildly goodness? Let’s break it down by faction and city.
Horde Guild Vendor Locations
The Horde boasts several guild vendor locations scattered throughout their major cities:
- Orgrimmar: Goram is an Orc guild vendor stationed in the Valley of Strength in Orgrimmar. Following the events of the Broken Shore (in the Legion expansion), you might have found him alongside other concerned citizens near Grommash Hold. His primary location, however, remains the Valley of Strength.
- Undercity: (Note: Undercity has been significantly altered in the game’s lore.) Kim Horn was once a Forsaken guild vendor in the Trade Quarter of Undercity. Due to events surrounding the Battle for Lordaeron (in the Battle for Azeroth expansion), she relocated to the Gates of Orgrimmar in Orgrimmar temporarily but is back in the Trade Quarter of Undercity since the events of Shadowlands and Dragonflight.
- Silvermoon City: Larissia can be found in Silvermoon City. Her exact location within the city is often near the main hub or area where other vendors reside.
- Thunder Bluff: Randah Songhorn resides in Thunder Bluff, likely near the central hub area.
- Shattrath: While Shattrath is no longer a primary hub, Riha can still be found there for players who frequent Outland.
- Dalaran: Mirla Silverblaze is a high elf guild vendor situated at the Dalaran Visitor Center in Dalaran (Northrend).
Alliance Guild Vendor Locations
For the Alliance, the search for guild vendors leads to these key areas:
- Stormwind City: Shay Pressler, a human guild vendor, calls the Stormwind Visitor’s Center home. This is conveniently located beside the exit of the Valley of Heroes as you enter the Trade District.
- Ironforge: Steeg Haskell, a dwarf guild vendor, can be found at the Ironforge Visitor’s Center in Ironforge.
- Dalaran: Mirla Silverblaze is a high elf guild vendor situated at the Dalaran Visitor Center in Dalaran (Northrend). This location is shared with the Horde.
It’s worth noting that the presence and exact location of some vendors might shift slightly with major content updates and expansions. Always consult in-game guards for directions if you’re having trouble finding a specific vendor.
Additional Guild Services NPCs
Besides the main vendors who sell reputation and achievement-related items, you might also encounter these guild-related NPCs:
- Guild Page: These NPCs assist with various guild-related tasks.
- Guild Herald: Heralds may provide information or announce guild events.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Guild Vendors
Let’s address some common questions players have about guild vendors and guild-related systems:
How do I access the guild shop and see what’s available?
You simply need to locate a guild vendor in any major city and interact with them. However, remember that the items you see are contingent on your guild reputation and your guild’s achievements. If you don’t meet the requirements for certain items, they will be hidden from your view.
Where can I buy a guild tabard?
Guild tabards can be purchased from tabard vendors, not exclusively guild vendors, in the capital cities. For example, in Stormwind, you can find Rebecca Laughlin. In Ironforge, look for Lyesa Steelbrow. Shalumon resides in Darnassus. Remember that as guild creator you can design and purchase unlimited amount of guild tabards and you can change its design later when you dont like it.

Shay Pressler (the same vendor from earlier) remains in Stormwind City throughout Shadowlands. So, the Stormwind Visitor’s Center is your go-to spot.
