Question 1

Which TBC reputations are needed for Heroic Keys?

Accepted Answer

To unlock Heroic Keys in TBC Classic, you need to reach Revered standing with specific factions. Honor Hold/Thrallmar unlocks Hellfire Citadel, Cenarion Expedition unlocks Coilfang Reservoir, Lower City unlocks Auchindoun, The Sha'tar unlocks Tempest Keep, and Keepers of Time unlocks Caverns of Time dungeons.

Question 2

What is the best TBC reputation for head enchants?

Accepted Answer

The best head enchant depends on your role. Honor Hold/Thrallmar provides the Glyph of the Flamewarden (Spell Power/Hit) and Glyph of the Defender (Tank). Cenarion Expedition offers Glyph of Ferocity (Melee DPS). The Sha'tar offers Glyph of Power (Caster Hit). Lower City offers Glyph of the Exile (Healer/Stat). Keepers of Time offers Glyph of the Defender (Stamina/Dodge).

Question 3

Are TBC reputations account-wide?

Accepted Answer

No, TBC reputations are not account-wide. Every character must grind their own reputation to unlock Heroic keys and purchase profession recipes or enchants. This makes boosting services highly valuable for players with multiple alternative characters (alts).

Question 4

Aldor or Scryer for TBC reputation?

Accepted Answer

Choosing Aldor or Scryer depends on your class and profession. Aldor shoulder enchants typically favor Healers and Tanks (Defensive), while Scryer shoulder enchants generally favor DPS classes (Crit/Spell Power). Additionally, Alchemists usually go Scryer, while weapon crafters may prefer Aldor items.

Question 5

How long does it take to get Exalted in TBC?

Accepted Answer

Getting to Exalted in TBC Classic usually takes 5 to 7 days of consistent dungeon farming or item turn-ins from a fresh level 70 start. The speed depends on whether you can spam run high-level dungeons like Shadow Labyrinth or Steamvaults efficiently.
