Horde Supply Faction · Prices from November 11, 2026
Durotar Supply and Logistics is the Horde trade faction in World of Warcraft: Forever. Fill Waylaid Crates and complete Craftsman’s Writs to earn Merchant’s Favor and reputation, then spend the Favor on recipes, a pet, a toy, a tabard and the Pack Kodo mount.
Where to find them
- The camp: just outside the west gate of the Crossroads in The Barrens.
- Dokimi takes your filled crates.
- Gishah sells the pet, toy and tabard.
- Pawani sells the Leatherworking recipes. Each profession has its own recipe vendor at the camp.
Earning Merchant’s Favor
Each filled crate pays out Merchant’s Favor by tier. Fabrics, Ingots and Parts crates pay double.
| Crate tier | Level | Textiles, Ore, Herbs | Fabrics, Ingots, Parts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apprentice | 10 | 5 | 10 |
| Journeyman | 10 | 10 | 20 |
| Expert | 20 | 15 | 30 |
| Artisan | 35 | Not confirmed | Not confirmed |
The Performance Bonus Legacy perk gives each hand-in a chance to pay double Favor.
Crate prices
Fill costs come from the latest auction house scan on the US PvP ruleset (November 11, 10:43 PM). Crate prices come from the auction house line on each crate’s tooltip. Per Favor is how many silver each point of Merchant’s Favor costs you to fill.

Sell or fill? Several crates sell for far more gold than their Favor is worth: Apprentice Fabrics (about 12g), Journeyman Herbs (about 7g 80s), Apprentice Ingots (about 6g 93s) and Expert Textiles (about 3g 88s). Sell those on the auction house. Then buy Apprentice Textiles crates at about 7s each and fill them with 40 Linen Cloth. That works out to about 2s 59c per point of Favor, so one 12g Fabrics crate buys about 450 Favor this way instead of 10.
