    How are people so far along with Shieldwall/Dominance rep & 5.1 questline?

    I'm a human, have the guild bonus and used the extra buff from the darkmoon faire every day it was available, I bought the grand commendation for even more rep when I reached revered and I have not missed a single set of dailies and I am currently about half way into Revered. There is no possible way that I know of that anyone could be much further ahead than me...

    But I have seen plenty of people on my server riding the exalted mount and I have seen people talking about the end of the questline on forums etc. My question is HOW?

    It shouldn't be possible. I have used every single rep bonus there is and there is no way people could possibly be more than 10k rep ahead. What cheats are they using to get rep so quickly?

    Who says they are cheating? That seems quite unfounded, dont you think?

    Well there's no possible way that anyone could be that far ahead by legitimate means. As I made a large point in saying - I have used every possible boost to reputation there is available, yet I'm not even near to exalted yet. I should be miles ahead of most people, but somehow people are miles ahead of me... over 10,000 rep ahead (that's over a week's worth of dailies).

    It's mathematically impossible to have gained that much reputation -- If I'm not yet exalted then it should be impossible that anyone is.

    Hozen peace pipe perhaps?

    1. I don't think it works for the 5.1 factions
    2. You can only use it once per 7 days, it wouldn't make up the 10k rep the poster is suggesting.

    Initial quests done to create the base. Gave up doing dailies because of faction imbalance and constant ganking/farming of HKs.

    Can't be bothered to get arena-gear to do dailies. A shame such a big part of the content-patch is rendered useless.

    Transfer to a PvE server.

    The first day 5.1 was live, I believe there was a fast re-spawning group of mobs that you could farm for rep turn in items. Was hotfixed either that day or the day after.

    As for my own progression, I haven't done a single shieldwall daily due to getting ready for exams. Even if I didn't have exams, I'm still loathe to do more dailies just to socket a weapon I don't have or expect to get in the foreseeable future. Maybe when a month or so before patch 5.3 is expected to go live I'll start them.

    completely uninterested in pvp style quest areas. and with the alliance guards and npc's more active then the horde ones.. its totally not worth doing.

    if u did it with 2 chars every day and never returned the main story line quests on one of them before u got the other one revered and bought the commendation then u get the rep increase for every returned main story line quest on the other char thats a massive amount of rep, put hozen pipe on top of that should be doable

    Someone else correct me if I'm wrong, but doing these dailies puts you in areas that are flagged for PVP regardless of being on a PVE server, don't they?
    Soothing Mist:"Healing them for a minor amount every 0.5 sec, until you take any other action."
    Jade Serpent Statue: "The statue will also begin casting Soothing Mist on your target. healing for 50% as much as yours. "
    [What's half of minor?]
    "Statue casts Soothing Mist at a nearby ally for toddler healing."

    Only Blizzard profits from that.

    Also Human, missed the first day of dailies, missed only 2 days of the DMF buff (Counting getting the buff before the Fair ended and logging out) and I'm about halfway through revered too. I do all 5 dailies plus the caged beast.

    It did when 5.1 went live, it was later fixed.

    I'm on an RP server and I've done the dailies every day from start and never gotten flagged ever!

    No they don't, although there are a few mobs in places that can flag you but they're not required for quests.

    There are no rep turn in items.

    patch 5.1: 28.11.2012 (EU)
    revered: 08.12.2012 (bought grand commendation)
    exalted: 11.12.2012

    I missed the darkmoon bonus for the first 2-3 days and I haven't done the beast-daily one time. I used the darkmoon bonus on sunday (logged out with 1hour left).

    Feels too fast after hitting revered. The yellow quests give way too much reputation.
    Saturday: hit revered and ended at 3k/21k
    Sunday: 7k/21k
    Monday: 17k/21k (wtf)
    Tuesday: exalted 680/1000

    On the other side this could be intended. War wouldn't be like "We have to act really fast, come again tomorrow".
