Quick darnassus rep advice please?

[s***@googlemail.com]

Im currently 5085/6000 friendly rep with darnassus. I would like my
lvl45 warrior to have a saber. I guess cloth is the quickest way to
rep. How many runecloth would it take to exalted? If mobs are easier
then how many and what level mobs do I need to kill?

You'll need hundreds of stacks of cloth. There are no mobs that give
Darnassus rep.

Go to Teldrassil and go all the way back to the newbie zone. Find the
quest givers and start doing all the quests. You'll get no experience, but
you will get full Darnassus rep for each turnin. Keeping going all the way
through the starter area, and then work down through Darkshore and
Ashenvale, if you've not done those zones already.

There's an addon called "Tour Guide" that is very useful for finding the
quest givers, even when they don't show up on your map.

If you wait until level 51, you can get rep for all five main factions
by doing the repeatable turnin quests in Alterac Valley. At some
point, you start getting 18 or 19 rep for each turnin of 5 Storm
Crystals. The other turnins (armor scraps, etc.) give 5 rep per 2
turnins.

When I wanted Exalted with UC my Paladin did all the quests he could
find and still needed a ton of cloth.

My advice is to first do as many quests that give Darnassus rep as
possible. Here is a list:

That seems a bit odd. Since you wanted rep with UC, and you have a
paladin, that means you're a blood elf. BE's start out friendly with
UC, giving a slight advantage in grinding the rep.

My BE warlock made exalted with UC without turning in a single cloth
scrap. One day I just went back to Tirisfal and started doing
quests. I don't even remember doing any quests in Silverpine with
him. Its possible I hit exalted just from Tirisfal.

Of course, I did this at level 70, after having completed a lot of UC
rep quests prior to that. At level 45 it might be a good bit more
difficult to grind rep just from quests.

And I thought the runecloth turn in didn't become available until
level 50. The OP is level 45.

Reason why he did it was because my server is fairly new; it was

July? August?) there were about 200 Horde level 70s and no one seemed
interested in running OW instances. I had levelled faster than friends
I had met along the way, so I had no one to do the Paladin mount quest
with.

Since I didn't want to ride a bird, I grinded UC rep. I used the
Thottbot feature to search for UC faction quests and took a weekend to
do a good chunk of them.

It *seemed* to me that even after I had done most of them I still had
a long way to go to get Exalted. It *seemed* like I still had to hand
in a lot of cloth. On the other hand, this is the first character of
mine to ever try to get rep via cloth turnins so perhaps I just don't
know what "a lot" of cloth actually is.

Ah ok.

It is possible to do UC without doing cloth turn ins (I will mention
that I did do cloth turn ins with UC, but only the initial turn in of
60 wool, then silk, then mageweave, then runecloth, but never repeated
turn ins. Those cloth turn in quests actually award a nice amount of
XP if you do them at the right level). But I had leveled extensively
though Hillsbrad and Arathi, both zones offering a lot of UC quests.
Only later did I come back to do Tirisfal quests. I also did some EPL
quests that award UC rep.

I also did the same rep grind for all the other factions as well.
Orgrimmar was also grindable without cloth turn ins. Darkspear and TB
bot became a hassle, and I resorted to buying cloth for turnins for
them.

I will mention one really good source for rep is doing low level
dungeon quests. They tend to award more rep than normal quests do.
This helped a lot with Org, TB, and Darkspear.

Neither of your two propostion.

Do the quests given by NPC that are affilied to Darnassus.

Go to the elf starting zone and talk to every NPC to get every possible
quests. You will get almost no XP, but reputation is not affected by level
difference.

Then, go to darkshore, and do all the quests.

Then, ashenvale. At level 45, you should be able to do Feralas, too. Elves
are on an island on the west, there is a boat to go there.

give "spill-over" rep to the other alliance factions (a quarter, I believe).

Bear in mind that most quests <lvl 10 usually do *not* give spillover

and it's like a needle in a haystack figuring out which!

Something interesting I ran across, spillover rep only seems to be
reported in your chat log when the main faction for that quest is
already maxed. I was doing some Orgrmmar quests in Barrens, and I
knew I was getting spillover rep into Darkspear and TB, as I would
look at my rep levels with them before and after turning in a quest.
After getting exalted with Org, I would start seeing messages like
"Your Darkspear Trolls reputation has increased by 36." These were
also quests that normally award 250 rep with the faction they are
associated with. So spillover rep is only a very minor part.

I really wonder if its possible to get exalted with Darkspear or TB
currently without doing any of the repeatable turn ins.

You get around 1/4 of the overall rep as spillover rep I think - I
normally get 67ish from 250 rep quests. There's mods that show you how
much rep you get with all factions, I use Factionizer which shows me
everything I want to see/

It *might* be on a post-TBC character. My UD priest is just over 6k
short on TB and 5k short on the trolls, having not done the 1-5 Mulgore
quests yet... and I levelled to 60 before TBC and the associated rep
gains. However I have also done a bunch of AV turnins, although not that
huge an amount, as it's rare to have a game last long enough that I
actually *can* turn anything in. I've handed a few stacks of cloth into
the trolls, but only done the one-time wool/silk turnins with the
tauren.

And I've done every quest I could find in every low level
zone/instance... however I've not yet done the BRD quests, so hopefully
can get a bit more out of them, if I can get any help with them (tried
soloing the place, and decided that good as my holy priest is for most
stuff, groups of elites that high lvl are a bit beyond me, especially
with no spirit tap as they're grey!)

Ah, I hadn't realised. When I started bringing my alliance rep to 999/1000
for all five factions I just went through all zones I had not yet visited
while levelling and noticed that a lot of quests gave spillover rep.
However, it is very well possible that this only applied to quests > level
10.

I use Rep2, which always tells me *exactly* what rep I'm getting, and how
many repeats of that action to get the next level. Very nice lightweight
addon.

I built that feature into Factionizer (I think Catriona requested it here)

I would like my lvl45 warrior to have a saber. I guess cloth is the
quickest way to rep.

I believe questing is the way to go - at least that's what I did to
get my Warlock exalted with Darnassus. First, I did all the quests I
could find in the Night Elf starting area (I was lvl60 at that time
and got all kinds of sarcastic remarks, but that's another story).
Then I moved on to Darkshore and Ashenvale and reached exalted in no
time.

I'll echo the advice of others, go to teldrassil, the nelf starting

and then work through quests. You can find who gives them in

What I'd like to figure out is how to build Gnomeregon exile

Granted, however, for a lot of those quest rewards, the rep gained is
only the incidental rep you get for completing quests for another
Alliance faction.

That's what I'm working on now. As people have said, there's not much.

Dun Morogh
Gnomeregan itself.
The gnome in Stonetalon peaks.

There's probably anohter couple of scattered quest lines, but it's faster
to just to other Alliance quests for the spillover rep.

There's a great mod called Rep2 that not only shows you ALL the rep you
gain from a quest turnin, but also how many more turnins of that amount
required to get the next level. Makes it a lot easier to gauge the
progress.

I did that rep grind for a saber to ride. I wish I could remember the
odd here-n-there quests for Darnassus rep. You may need them. Check
wowhead.com and filter quests for Darnassus rep.

It may feel a little odd doing level 1 quests in Aldrassil, but you have
to do them, you'll need every rep point you can get.

I'm in the same position as Cryptoguy. There doesn't seem to be many
ways to get Gnomeregon rep which my two 70s need to be exalted in all 5
alliance factions.

Currently I'm on break doing the Brewfest quests. :-)

Besides Teldrassil, Darkshore, Ashenvale and Feralas, there is a quest chain
in Stonetalon Mts that gives quite a bit of rep, too. (It was the chain
that put me over the top at L40 with my gnome rogue.) If you have BC, there
are a couple on Silvermyst Isle (an easy escort, for one) that also give
Darnassus rep.
