The reputation loss quest for Aldor and Scryers is flipped around -- turn in Dreadfang Venom Sac for Scryer loss, Dampscale Basilisk Eyes for Aldor loss.
The heading sounds like if you do Dreadfang Venom Sac turn ins you'll lose Aldor rep, when you actually gain Aldor rep...
So it really should be swapped, or it should say Hated to Neutral.

The reputation required to unlock heroic keys is revered at the start of the expansion. It will get lowered at a later stage.

This guide could do with being updated in that section.

Comment by Dinousek

Mana Tombs awards rep for Consortium, not Lower City.

Comment by EXPERIMENTONGOD

Warning!

The "level 70 honored reputation PVP armor" is not available on phase 1 ! !

Comment by Kactus04

For the Honor Hold guide: "Friendly to Exalted - Kill mobs in and around Hellfire Citadel"

The mobs outside Hellfire Citadel stop giving rep at Friendly.

Comment by Nurnen

The Cenarion Expeditions section of this page seems to contain an error. Under the Gaining Reputation: Details subsection, for the Revered>Exalted section it says that you can only gain reputation from heroic Steamvault. But on the page titled Cenarion Expedition Reputation Guide it says under the Honored>Exalted Section that "Running The Steamvault on Normal difficulty grants a decent amount of reputation points per run, and it can be done repeatedly." And on the page titled The Steamvault it states that " is also the only Coilfang Reservoir instance that a player can run in Normal mode and receive Cenarion Expedition reputation all the way to Exalted."

There's a lot of Lower City armor listed as honored that should be in the revered section. Double check the pieces when you're planning your rep grind to see if it's worth all those feathers.

Comment by Galenthor

no rep stuff for dranaei in the exodar? every other race has one...
