I have been doing the reputation grind myself recently (I do enjoy it in some twisted way). I hit exalted with Argent Dawn just recently and today did a write up of how I did it. While you can certainly run strat/scholo over and over again I preferred to focus on the repeatable field quests and hand-ins. It really wasn't that bad and went quickly. http://stoicguardian.blogspot.com/2008/10/becoming-exalted-with-argent-dawn.html My next target is Timbermaw Hold, but that just gives me headache when I calculate how many feathers/necklaces I have to gather and so I keep putting it off. Good luck. :) Nice. I have been doing the reputation grind myself recently (I do enjoy it in some twisted way). I hit exalted with Argent Dawn just recently and today did a write up of how I did it.

Good luck. :)

It's been like 3 years since I leveled Brajana up, so I can't really remember which ones I did and didn't do :) However, I'm pretty sure I did do most of the EPL and WPL quests. There might be a couple left in Light's Hope, I'll have to check that out! I'll take the Sha'tari Skyguard rep I get from doing Ogri'la, but I really do hate Skettis. I've never been able to do a full set of dailies there without giving up and going home. :P I also forgot about the Prison keys for Consortium! I'll have to figure out what I should do with those. Having little ! over these questgivers heads would be user helpful, but at least they have it when I mouse over them, which is close enough. Cabo - Unfortunately, that quest and the Wintersaber Trainers are Alliance Only. I would love a pretty Frostsaber, but for some silly reason, they won't let us Horde get one!

The quest is called "Winterfall Intrusion" and requires you to kill 5 Winterfall Shaman and 5 Winterfall Ursa (they cna be found close to Everlook). Killing those gives you rep. for the Timbermaw Hold and they drop Spirit Beads, which you can turn in for rep. with the Timbermaw Hold (after completion of the quest "Winterfall Activity", which you might have done already).

That will make getting every quest done much easier (but will take away a little of the "exploration" aspect of the game).

Is that still true? I've been taking my hunter around the starting zones of other races trying to scrounge up some easy capital rep. But I'm sure I'm missing lots.

Do NOT turn any in prior to this. Once you have 700 saved go ahead and start turning them in for extra rep. The reason? Once you hit Revered there is no rep from kills, and that 700 will take you right to Exalted. Save all the runecloth (you will get TONS) for Horde reps. Horde Factions: Make sure you've gone back and done ALL the quests. Hunt around for hidden ones you found on other toons, repeatbles (Chen's Empty Keg for example). Do all those, then save the runecloth from the other grinds. It should be more than enough to get you over the top. Argent Dawn: Doesn't take too long to solo undead Strat, so that's not a bad choice. Also remember the field quests. The field closest to EPL is a good place to grind for stones, and the repop rate is perfect for solo clearing (save the runecloth!). You can solo the 45 min Baron run at lvl 70, so try to get that quest line going (assuming you haven't done it yet). Cenarion Circle: Fairly easy, lots of quests in Silithus, and the rep reward from turning in pages is 500 per turn in so its a fairly quick grind. Save your runecloth. Ogri'la / Shatari Skuyguard: A couple of the Ogri'la quests give you Shatari Skyguard rep as well, so this and Skettis makes it a fairly easy grind with the daily quests. Outland Factions: Don't forget that if you have keys to Etherial prisons you can occasionally get rep from the main Outland factions by freeing prisoners fron the factions. Its random, so you may not get what you're looking for, but if you have the keys you can try that too. Consortium: Speaking of Ethereals, by doing the daily heroic quest (I know, it means grouping) you get Consortium + whatever faction the heroic dungeon falls under. Woth tanking a look to see if its one ya needs. Sporeggar: Just take your Druid alt and do stealth runs of Underbog for the Sanguine Hibiscus! Oh wait, you don't have one of those. Well, you could always pay someone with a druid alt. Hmm, I wonder who has one of those ... (there are other repeatable quests too. Not a horrible grind to get this one up). If I think of anything more I'll add them. Okay Braj, here goes:
