I'm surprised to see that the withered army treasure scenario isn't mentioned here. For anyone who doesn't know, it's a scenario you unlock during questing in Suramar that can be run once per day. It is initially introduced through the quest: Withered Army Training but later access can be purchased with Ancient Mana with the option to spend more ancient mana to start with more withered. The scenario awards different toy items, artifact power and gold but also reputation items such as Arcane Tablet of Falanaar through a big "Jackpot" chest that is awarded at the end of the run, depending on your personal score in the scenario. I hope this helps people out with getting some extra reputation.

Withered Army Training
The Withered Army Scenario/World Quest, introduced via the quest Withered Army Training, is a unique way to get Nightfallen rep:
To unlock this quest, you must have completed the main Suramar questline up to Building an Army and have 400 Ancient Mana on hand.

It says the cap of Ancient Mana is 300, is 400 a typo or is there something that I am not seeing?

Comment by Umnusman

The world quest Life Finds a Way can be unlocked by going to the Suramar Menagarie, close to the vineyard, and completing the quests Nighteyes offers there. The world quest version gives 150 rep upon completion

Comment by Darthutq

I have reached honored and finished the Blood and Wine part but can't get to Statecraft part. It was mentioned somewhere else that you need 8000/12000 to get the Statecraft quest. Is that the problem ?

Comment by culicidae

I basically had to do a Nightfallen Emissary Daily (i.e. do 4 Nightfallen / Warden in Suramar WQs) to get to Honoured as all the quests took me nowhere near to 6000 rep, which was massively annoying as I had to wait 4 days for the Emissary to cycle around to the Nightfallen faction.

Comment by 1694248

Best way to handle this:
Withered Army Training (Whenever it pops up. Not daily, not every three days, I've done it two days in a row, although the hard reset may be every three days)
Activate all Leylines (There's an achievement titled "Leyline Bling" to help track this)
Activate all Portals (There's an achievement titled "Now You're Thinking With Portals" to help track this)
Do every world quest in Suramar on a daily basis
Finish every side quest and main quest (For artifact power as well, I'm at 6.891/24,000 without farming the world quests like crazy)
Feed all three Shal'Aran NPCs daily
Remember, at 8,000/12,000 in Honored towards Revered, you unlock the Statecraft questline, and once you have three specific quests, two of them being in-dungeon quests for The Arcway and Court of Stars, you may run both dungeons from then on.
From doing this, I hit Revered on 9/10/16 and just hit Exalted on 9/24/16

Comment by Miuku

Note; it's worth checking Felsoul Hold even if the world quest marker does not appear there.

It seems it's bugged (or hidden on purpose) and often simply going there will present it to you, leading to the quest Aggressive Reconnaisance, helpful if you're missing one quest to get the Nightfallen chest.

Comment by hagu

Hunters can recruit Addie Fizzlebog via the Order Hall Campaign, who has Chronicler which increases reputation gains by 5%.

Did Addie's Chronicler make it into the game? I don't see it on her.

Comment by 401

Is it possible to rush the 10 withered chest while in combat with the boss inside of the 10 withered required unlock room?

Comment by sanesyco

This statement seems to be incorrect. (at least for warlocks)

At Honored, First Arcanist Thalyssra and Class Hall Vendors sell ilvl 820 Class Hall Set Gloves and 830-840 Class Hall set upgrade tokens.

Wowhead states that Gigi Gigavoid sells the tokens to upgrade one you hit honored with Nightfallen.

Comment by Kaerfemagsh

I'm stuck at 1 point away from Revered. Any idea why the game stopped me from hitting Revered with these guys?

Comment by Hordearmy

The Withered army training is every 3 days because that i leave chests and i keep kill mobs for rep.

Comment by yzq85

The last quest chain for "Good Suramaritan" opens at 20,000/ 21,000 Revered (after you've completed the previous chains involving the Nightfallen), and will take you to Exalted.

Comment by Renegron

At 20,000/21,000 Rep I got a quest called A Change of Seasons, seems its new!

Comment by SilverDragon234

Just to be curious, do you lose rep if the Nightfallen run outta energy?

Comment by neopite

For Reputation farming you can go to The Waning Cresent.
Once there a world quest will pop up after you completed the quest.

Secret Correspondence

Though it is not marked on the world map.

Comment by Herohavyk

It should also be noted that Withered Army Training awards a maximum of 425 reputation. 4 Arcane Tablet of Falanaar and 1 Arcane Remnant of Falanaar. This requires a minimum score during the scenario of 425 from what i have experienced. Having a higher score does not raise this reputation gain.

Comment by 1701717

If you get exalted and then roll an alt, is the rate of rep gains the same or is it cut in half. I believe I remember angler rep in MOP being much faster on alts if you were exalted on another toon.

Comment by r4z0r84

If doing Withered Army Training make sure you do not logout! logging out will return you the surface with NO REWARD, if the final door doesn't allow you to open it, run back to the start or jump off a cliff. I've submitted this to blizzard as i couldn't open the final door(after Dro's locked door) and tried relogging to fix it much like other world quests, but instead of fixing it, the game shafted me in the groin. Pity party about wasting 30 mins of time and 600+ mana, i'm just glad i didn't do it with a 4000 mana run...

Comment by MavyStorme

There are three daily quests to feed Nightfallen, 50 mana for 50 reputation each: Feed Valtrois, Feed Thalyssra, Feed Oculeth

This now award 75 rep. Not sure when it changed, I just know I gave them mana today and I got 75 rep for it.

Comment by 6by6n6

Been grinding this rep for the last few days. If you are a semi-casual like me who's doing the grind with an eye on pathfinder, and don't really aim to be exalted with everyone, my suggestions:

Please use the Kirin Tor Emissary quest reward on Nightfallen, even though it gives only 750 rep instead of 1500 for others. For the simple reason that you only need to be Revered with the others but need to be Exalted with these guys to complete the Good Suramaritan achievement. Many Warden emissary quests have come and gone since I've hit revered with them and while I'm grinding this rep.

Just finished Leyline Bling a couple of days ago. You get 75 rep for each that you activate, but also I noticed that the guide says you get 75 each for submitting the quests to Arcanist Valtrois. Maybe this has been changed but I got 200 each for Leyline Proficiency and Leyline Master. So that makes it at least a thousand rep for the entire chain! Priceless, and you would feel silly doing it later.

Do the world quests in Suramar daily. Even without the withered training or the emissary quest, I average around 1500 rep per day after feeding the 3 nightfallen 50 mana each.

Pretty much all world quests get unlocked as you go through the story, but make sure you unlock Life finds a way!

In Felsoul Hold, shooting down the Shriekers (like you do for Clear the skies) counts towards Aggressive Reconnaisance, making it much faster and easier to do. Just grab a cannon and go crazy.

Have fun with the withered training. It's pretty useless rep-wise, since the difference between a decent run or a brilliant run is only around 100 rep. So take it as a reward for doing the grind every three days, instead of a part of the grind.

Comment by Xaneluela

I'm exalted with the nightfallen now, with the storyline 9/11. How long do I have to wait to get the next quests after exalted to continue the storylines? I have a friend who didn't complete the dungeon quests and still got way farther then me after becoming exalted with them.

Comment by 1514645

Can anyone tell me whether running Arcway, Court of Stars, or Nighthold awards reputation per boss or per completion?

Comment by dstmars

If you are stuck at 20999 rep and no matter how many world quests you do, you can't get 1 more point of rep to push you to exalted there is only one way to get there. You must get that extra rep from the rep tokens in the chest when you finish a run of Withered Army Training. That's the only way to get it.

Comment by olaivo

The guide says you can get Legionfall Rep from Treasure Chests:

There are additional ways to earn reputation:
Nightfallen Insignia grant 250 reputation and drop from treasure chests.

I just opened ALL treasure chests in Suramar and did not get ANY insignias..

Comment by Trembelwick

Why is Nathrezim Tome of Manipulation added into this list. You HAVE to be 110 to unlock Suramar, this will be impossible to use as it is level 109 max.

Comment by Itsversayce

All reputation requirements for Nightfallen storyline quests were removed at the end of Legion.

Comment by Ysosrslawl

Not sure if the rep buff is still going since it was suppose to end in May. However, I was on my DH alt and happened to do some world quests in Suramar while trying to get the artifact quest line done. When I noticed that I was receiving significantly more rep for world quests than I had expected (no buffs on my bar). Regular world quests were giving me 150-350 rep each. Except for the pet battling one which only gave 75. I easily went up almost 2k rep from doing what little bit i did today thanks to those world quests. Now to finish getting revered ugh.

Comment by Jagas4ur

As of Dragonflight 10.2.5, if you're trying to get exalted, you can finish with World Quests.

Another comment suggests that you can only do it via Withered Army Training but I was able to finish with a random WQ when I was 20875/21000.

Comment by Msshadowfox

PSA: if you have already unlocked the Nightborne and created a character. Your nightborne character will be automatically exalted with the Nightfallen and the basic Suramar storyline will be completed.
