Posts with tag cenarion hold

I noticed this post on the EU forums regarding massive lost of Cenarion Circle reputation after accidentally attacking a flight master who had been mind controlled by the opposing faction.  You know how you right click on a flight master to talk to them and fly somewhere?  Well, right clicking will also enable auto-attack on a hostile target.  So if the mind control is timed just right, you may not even realize what happened - the flight path window never came up, and you just lost 15000 reputation.  (Note: in this case, the initial auto-attack tagged the flightmaster to the player, and opposing faction player killed it - thus the massive reputation loss.)
However, GM response simply stated that this was "designed this way" and a CM response states that this is a GM issue.  So is it really intentional for other players to be able to cause you to loose huge chunks of reputation like this (it's -15000 for killing a member of faction), through no fault of your own?  It seems rather wrong to me, but in the mean-time I'm going to be very careful when flying out of Cenarion Hold...

I've talked before about how important nature resist is in parts of Ahn'Qiraj and how difficult it is to find in Azeroth.  Well, today the Cenarion Circle reputation page was updated with a selection of craftable cloth and plate nature resist gear.  CM Eyonix has informed us that these will go live in patch 1.11, along with leather patterns (I can only presume no reputation is required, since they are not on the Cenarion Circle page) for sale in Southwind Village.  Having options for nature resist that don't require me to farm Maraudon is big plus.

The past few patches have added quite a few goodies to Cenarion faction, and if the gates of Ahn'Qiraj have been opened on your server there are faction-based quests that provide nice, class-based rewards in exchange for item drops from inside the (20 player) instance.  The rewards are best summarized on Blizzard's own reputation page, here.  And, of course, the most appealing items there are the weapons - all of which require exalted reputation. 

While getting to that level would certainly take time and effort, there are a couple of excellent guides to help you along.  Wowwiki's guide explains some of the lore as well as providing a detailed list of quests and reputation gain, and Feign's guide provides more detailed information on how to reach exalted, focusing mainly on the field duty quests.  (My advice for repetitive field duty quests: bring a healer.  Or be one.)
