    Question Huojin + Tushui Tabards

    Will the two tabards (Huojin(horde) + Tushui(alliance) Tabards) be buyable in 5.0.4 or with MoPs launch?

    Wasn't the Gob faction implemented with pre-patch in Cata? At least I remember people running the dungeons for it. (I may be wrong of course.)

    You could buy the Blidgewater and Gilneas tabards pre-cata iirc. People grinded them in the LK 5 mans, I remember seeing those trikes around.

    I thought they were done with tabards like that? I wonder, why the change of heart.

    I assume they're keeping those two similar to the other alliance/horde main faction tabards.

    Ah, it seems likely these factions will belong to horde/alliance forces and possible be implemented into Ambassador then.

    They wanted to change how the factions in the new area worked to be more like the BC model with tabards as a reward at the end. As for the pandaren tabards, they *have* to fall under the WOLk/Cata model of tabards *to* level with. As it stands, there's no quests or anything to get rep with either set of pandas. Also, as far as for mounts and everything goes, there's no reason to change the Pandaren factions from the other racial factions.

    The Tabards ARE being implemented with the pre-patch, you WILL be able to grind the rep pre-expac, an those ARE the Pandaren factions that align with the Horde (Houjin) and Alliance (Tushui). The only thing they haven't implemented is the ability to PURCHASE the new faction's mounts. I don't know why they are holding off but we'll find out soon enough.

    Because there are no quests or dailies with that faction (esp. for a non-Pandaren) so it's either that or cloth donations like back in BC

    I also remember a glitch where Alliance could get them.

    There's no way to grind up rep with those factions unless cloth turn-ins were reimplemented.

    Just adding that even in the Burning Crusade pre-patch, you could work on Silvermoon and Exodar reputation. You could get the new quests from the handful of new blood elf and draenei quest givers they added to the old hubs, or you could complete battlegrounds which would net you reputation to all the Horde/Alliance Forces.

    So, yeah, it's pretty safe to assume that you'll be able to start grinding Huojin and Tushui reputation before the expansion is released.

    Every faction has it's own Tabard that you can grind reputation with. Panderen just have two because of the split in the faction. Even with the changes this makes sense for this one occasion.

    Sting was probably talking about the tabards like Dragonmaw or Therezane like we had in Cataclysm, which is what Blizzard said they weren't doing anymore.
