There's a bug with the image upload system where, if you upload a .png file it gives you link to a .jpg but is actually still a .png. The fix is simply to alter the file type back to png.

One of the details you see when you're creating/editing your guide is:

There is no predetermined length for a good guide, however, if it's an extremely short one consider if it's better served as a Wowhead comment rather than a guide.

This feels more like a really good comment than a guide in and of itself.

Comment by Ashelia

This is some solid information, but it's a little too short. Consider adding a little more background, explaining the benefits of it.

There really is no point to getting Thorium Brotherhood rep anymore Ashelia, and I guess that's why Blizzard have nerfed it so hard (quite sad really, if it's unused, why nerf it?)

Unless of course you're doing this short rep grind at level 60, or you are a collecter of recipes for professions of course, and even so, you won't be getting much business with these recipes and they will be replaced very quickly if you plan on using them.

But yeah, it contains all the information, but it's not much of a guide. I did this rep "grind" myself in under 5 minutes. It took me longer finding the items at the AH and getting to the NPC than it actually did to hand in all the items.

Comment by Darkicon

Not bad, could be longer. But a little note: I don't suggest turning in Blood of the Mountain, due to it having a very low drop rate and being it's required for a legendary (Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros) it tends to be worth quite a bit to other players. My server (Illidan-Horde) is really inflated, but they sell like hotcakes for up to 1000g+.

To RandomGUI: While it's a worthless faction now, you can't forget about people going for 50 Exalted Reputations.

Thorium Brotherhood quests in Burning Steppers and Searing Gorge got me to ~12k in revered (10% + 7% repu bonus). I managed to do them in 45mins on my lvl 85. Imo it is worth doing them. I did that in 4.2

For anyone else who is confused by #3 "activate lever", there is no lever! Instead, look for a gigantic cogwheel hanging overhead. Underneath the cogwheel is a wooden structure labeled The Shadowforge Key (or something similar). Once you activate this, the black slab blocking the walkway between the East and West Garrison will be removed.

I found it still usefull to be able to smith the red-black plate armor from there for mogging. The ore-bar conversion is aweful though 8:1!

I've made a quick video explaining the fastest way to get exalted with the Thorium Brotherhood as of patch 6.2.3.

It requires you to buy or farm 22 Fiery Cores and turn them in to Lokthos Darkbargainer in Black Rock Depths (BRD).
The video shows you the way to the entrance of BRD, including the most direct route to Lokthos, with commentary. No long stories about the good old days, what I had for lunch or other irrelevant stuff - just the info you need to get to exalted.
