Reputation question. Did I miss something?Follow

I did notice I got more CC rep on some text turn ins. Guess Blizz wants to help us all get more rep faster for TBC.

Well, if this is the case then expect to start seeing high level characters in low level zones doing quests for the reputation. It’s much cheaper and easier than buying/farming cloth.

I don't know if this is something I just overlooked before, but one of my Troll/Orc starting area quests gave me 500 Orgrimmar/Darkspear Trolls rep each on my new alt rogue.

That means Volf is going to Dolanaar to get his kitty kat mount. :)

I just tested this out and it’s true. I took my level 59 NE hunter to the dwarven starting area. He’d already done the quests in the next area, but not in the newbie section. I did all the quests and walked away with the following reputation…

Ironforge: 2,275
Gnomeregan Exiles: 2,425

If nothing else, this should save people the time/cost of a LOT of cloth.

Yeah, if you turn in a grey quest now, you will get the normal amount of rep, as opposed to 1/10 normal. And if you turn them in at the quest's level, you get a whopping 10x normal.

Yeah!
10 Twilight Texts now gives 250 rep with CC instead of 100. That made me ding revered last night. /cheer

The only difficulty I see with this is trying to figure out which low level NPCs have quests to do since we’ll no longer see any symbols over their heads. I’ve done the low level alliance quests so often I think I could find the NPCs blindfolded. The horde side will be a bit more challenging should I switch back. Sites such as this will prove invaluable for those seriously seeking faction rep boosts.

Heh, yes, I spent alot of time running around clicking on everyone in any given town just to see if they had something I could do for them! And I did search for some of the "hidden" quests here-ones I had no idea about way back when. And it helps having an epic mount for those lowbie timed quests! "Hmmm, I have 45 minute to do this...ok, 5 minutes later, done!"

Well I can say one thing-I wasn't taking quest mobs away from any low level while I was fighting last night. In fact, I think I only ever saw one low level and he was in town at the time. Back when I started my druid, I knew nothing about rep or whether I could even get a wolf mount by gaining more rep back then. It's easier now when I start an alt, I make sure to do all the noob zones and catch every quest possible, but it just didn't happen when I first started-things were not that clear then(at least not for me).

Yeah it is sort of a cheap do-over, but I think Blizz is trying to get people doing more and getting ready for BC. Maybe it was something they had intended all along and forgot to fix along time ago. I like it because it gives me another way to gain things without raiding and/or pvping. =)

Yes - but you also have to check again after running a few quests because sometimes a quest won't open until you've done some other seemingly unrelated quest first. I have found this in the Forsaken starting area particularly.

As you say, Calabar, I doubt everyone will be as considerate. This is one time I hope I am wrong.

Yes. As a matter of fact I hit revered with Darkspear Trolls while doing those last night! I also kept a running total of my Org rep, and when the log said only "+250 Darkspear Rep", I would still get around 75(or more) Org rep.
