Reputation grinding is a chore for a lot of players. When you hit level 80, the last thing you want to do is continue grinding further into the game. However, if you’re like a lot of players out there, you probably have a handful of factions you have yet to fully maximize – either because you’re out of time or because you don’t have the energy or patience to sit and grind for hours on end. Here are the three most commonly skipped Northrend Reputations that you should have maxed out at Level 80.
Argent Crusade
The Argent Crusade, while at first seemingly not that useful, turned out to be one of the more useful (and now easiest) factions to level up to Exalted in Northrend. The process starts with going through the initial phasing quests in Icecrown and then proceeds to the end-game content of the Argent Tournament during which you will need to complete quite a few quests to reach Champion status. Once you reach Exalted and are a champion, you can become a Crusader (assuming you have Valiant status with all of the other city factions). Then, it’s time to get some serious rewards.
Kirin Tor
Technically, Kirin Tor doesn’t do that much for you in terms of rewards. However, getting your Kirin Tor reputation up isn’t that hard – just use the tabard in the different dailies and dungeons in Northrend. Also, you get a nice discount on anything you buy in Dalaran with a maxed out Kirin Tor reputation – so it’s a good idea to get done as quickly as possible, especially if you buy a lot of stuff or camp on the rare spawns.
Sons of Hodir
The Sons of Hodir represent one of the more vital reputation grinds in the game when you hit level 80, for the enchantments you get and for the added boost of the plans and items you can buy at Exalted. It’s also a long grind, so it’s a good idea to get started as soon as possible so that you can reach Exalted quicker – you’ll be grinding in Storm Peaks a LOT to get there.
These are just three of a number of different factions in the game that can reward you with all sorts of stuff at Level 80. However, you stand to gain the most by grinding your way through all three of these potential gold mines. If you have not yet done so, make sure to invest a bit of additional time into the process going forward.
