I remained kind and polite in my post, please do the same, I don't think I insulted you in any way.

As I was saying, the two issues you brought up in this thread seem fine to me :
- Reduced reputation gains for grey quest are a Blizz-like mechanism, as stated above ;

- I completed dozens of quests granting reputation to 3 of the faction reputations in addition to another one. I just didn't see it for every single quest, and especially not in the first levels.
I found no evidence saying that this mechanism should apply to 100% of the quests, and neither does your wowwiki quote (which is definitely NOT a reliable source for Vanilla content btw), hence my "it seems fine for me" : it wasn't an opinion, just facts I saw here on the server : it seems fine because a significant proportion of quests works this way past levels 15-20, depending on the levelling zone.

Have a nice day.


Sorry. I was lashing out defensively because I couldn't believe how difficult it was going to be for me to grind the rep I desired in a timely manner, and I apologize for any derisive comments I made. However I still have my doubts that this isn't somehow bugged considering that certain quests gave unusually higher (or lower?) rep than others, such as 'Crown of the Earth' (part 1 from Shadowglen) which awarded 150 points with Darnassus to my priest at level 13, while same level quests awarded arbitrary values of 33, 55, or 66 (assuming for non-humans they would be 30, 50, and 60 respectively). Either way I wouldn't really be sure until a staff member addresses this topic.

We already had such debate during the beta, sadly the "bug reports" topic is stealthed on the former forum. If a modo could check the investigations we did...

This is not a bug.

Reputation gains from grey quests are seriously reduced as is reputation gain from grey mobs. Only few quests give reputation for multiple factions and almost all of these are mid- or high-level quests.

The reputation gain mechanic was changed in Burning Crusade when the level cap was raised as otherwise gaining reputation with Cenarion Circle, Argent Dawn and Timbermaw Hold (not to mention Frostsaber Trainers) would have been impossible. I believe in patch 2.2.0 or so.

On that note, what patch was the venomhide added? I want my faction-specific (LEVEL 75 RIDING SKILL WHAT THE FUCK BLIZZARD) grindmount too.

Definitely not in Vanilla, I'm pretty sure non even BC either. WOTLK or later imo.

I just completed some quests out of Chillwind camp in WPL that said "Alliance +250," but my Stormwind rep didn't budge at all. I think this is odd, since the npc has Stormwind listed on his info tag. I'm level 60 for the record, but the quests were yellow in my quest log. I thought Stormwind was part of the alliance
