The information in this article may have been changed over the release of previous expansion packs. I will verify the information and update as needed.
The Kurenai are an alliance only faction in the Outland. This guide will explain how to become exalted with the Kurenai faction. The main reasons someone would now want to become exalted with Kurenai would be for:
The achievements:
The talbuk mounts, and the tabard.
You will start out your journey as unfriendly and will begin your questing in Zangarmarsh.
- [62] Concerns About Tuurem
- [64] A Message to Telaar
- [64] Ango’rosh Encroachment
- [64] Daggerfen Deviance
- [64] Wanted: Chieftain Mummaki
To complete the following quests you will need at least neutral reputation.
- [64] Lines of Communication
- [64] Natural Armor
- [64] Stinger Venom
- [64] The Terror of Marshlight Lake
Once you have completed Zangarmarsh, you will be moving onto Nagrand. At this point, you should have collected about 4500 rep. Once you are in Nagrand you will be completing the following quests:
- [65] Do My Eyes Deceive Me
- [65] Not On My Watch!
- [65] HELP!
- [66] The Throne of the Elements
- [67] Fierce Enemies
- [66] Wanted: Giselda the Crone
- [66] Wanted: Zorbo the Advisor
- [67] The Ravaged Caravan
- [67] Solving the Problem
- [67] Stopping the Spread
- [67] The Totem of Kar’dash
Once you have completed all of these quests you should have picked up another 10570 rep, and you should probably be somewhere around Revered depending on how many ogre’s you had to kill to complete some of these quests.
Now comes the long part. You will have to do a repeatable quest [67] More Warbeads [Repeatable] over and over again. You get 500 rep per 10 beads that drop. You also get 10 rep per ogre you kill. It’s not that bad of a grind, I found the best place to grind for the Obsidian Warbeads was at the Burning Blade Ruins. What I did was I started at the bottom, cleared out all the ogres, looted and made my way to the top. Once I was at the top, I went in the cave, cleared it out, and then cleared my way back to the bottom. I did this over and over until I had enough beads.
A couple good things about this grind. First, the ogres drop Runecloth and Netherweave, which depending on your server can be worth a fair bit of gold. If you are a miner, lots of Fel Iron deposits, and Adamantite deposits are littered around the area. I got at least 2 veins each time I either ran from the top or from the bottom.
It shouldn’t take too long to get all the rep. I didn’t keep track of my grind, so I couldnt tell you how long it took, however, it took about 4 hours to go from 20% revered to exalted with just beads. Enjoy.
