what rep should i get before questing Follow

hey am a 61 hunter and doing my thrailmar rep am almost Honored with them and am just thinking of what other reps are good for hunters and what i have to do before questing lol

thanks and yeh it may be abit easier but i like doing all the rep before i have to rerun things like my friend did to get a bow looks like i have to get a bit of rep with a few of the places for my Alchemy stuff :( and am looking at 70 items aswell ^^

A good rule, no matter which faction you are grinding for, is to find repeatable quests or mobs which give faction rep. Don't bother doing too many quests right now, but grind yourself to honored at least on mobs and repeatable quests. Save up any larger turnins (Cenarion Expeditions Coilfang Armaments for instance) for after that. Once you've gotten past honored, or even well on your way to revered, you can start doing the quests they offer you.

This way, you will reach Revered/Exalted alot sooner than if you go straight for the quests.

I messed up on my Druid, and just quested my way to 70 fast as hell. No consideration for faction. I have now done every single quest Cenarion Expedition has to offer, and she isn't even revered with them yet. I can't do the unidentified plant turnin, and the only way I can get any rep at all is through instance runs. Mucho... mucho... instance runs. I am weeping when I think about how many SV runs I am going to have to do to get Earthwarden.

In addition to the excellent advice above, WoWWiki has reputation guides for each faction.

Pay particular attention to the repeatable quests or kills which stop providing faction after a certain point, and make sure to get the best benefit from those before advancing to the next Reputation level.


Take the Consortium for example. Prior to patch 2.3 it was very difficult to get Consortium rep to Exalted unless you were very, very careful about what you did and when. There are two repeatable quests which you can't repeat after you become friendly, so do those until you become friendly. And then Mana Tombs runs can take you to Honored. At that point running the standard quests becomes 'economic', as every remaining repeatable quest or Instance run which provides rep continues to do so until Exalted. You can make the best use of your time if you try to run whatever daily Instances they offer in the Lower City, as you'll get some reputation with the Consortium as well as possibly with some other factions, and you'll also start collecting Ethereum Prison Keys, and 5 of those makes for another repeatable turn in for rep and coin.

um, just search for reputation? it's the first link that pops up...

I never had trouble with reputation and questing, but a large part of that is due to me running a lot of instances during leveling.
I'm now exalted with CE and Sha'tar, and revered with pretty much everything else.

I was exactly the same on my hunter. I was one of the members of my guild to reach 70 the earliest and I just charged in there, questing and leveling like mad. Now that I'm also getting my druid up, I've learned a lot about Outland groups and reputations so I'll be doing things differently this time.

For CE, the most efficient way to get rep is to, not do any quest(instances that give rep) and turn in unidentifiable plant parts until honored, you are bound to get quite bit of rare specimens which give a lot of rep per turn in once you are honored, once you run out of rare specimens, you can start questing, I hit revered at lvl 55. Btw unidentified plants are pretty cheap on AH, so either you can kill mobs for them or simply buy a batch and turn it all in at once for honored. I did the latter option.

Same. My Mage used the unidentified plant parts for all the CE rep until they stopped giving rep, and never saw a rare plant.

Yah, it's luck of the draw that is random number generator. :(

I got 5 on druid.
