It is time to make a stand in Draenor in the name of the Alliance alongside the Hand of the Prophet, a faction introduced in Warlords of Dreanor Patch 6.2. Following the lead of the indomitable Yrel, the remaining Exarchs have called for a crusade in the name of Velen. Together, with the help of heroes like you, they plan to establish a foothold inside the treacherous Tanaan Jungle. Then, after becoming firmly entrenched, the Hand of the Prophet will work to do the impossible; take out Gul'dan.
Are you ready and willing to aid and earn favor with this faction? Read onward to find out more about farming reputation and the rewards you can reap from the Hand of the Prophet faction.
As with most Tanaan Jungle factions, players will find they earn reputation for the Hand of the Prophet primarily through Daily Quests, however, there are a few other methods available:
There are four possible daily quests for the Hand of the Prophet faction that come from various sources.
A command table inside of Lion's Watch will offer up two daily quests (out of seven potential quests) each day. Much like the Apexis daily quests, you will only be able to choose one of the two quests. The potential quests include:
Assault on the Throne of Kil'jaeden Assault on Ironhold Harbor Assault on the Temple of Sha'naar Assault on the Fel Forge Assault on the Ruins of Kra'nak Bleeding the Bleeding Hollow Battle At the Iron FrontAfter completing the quest from the Tanaan Planning Map, Vindicator Krethos (the Quartermaster for the faction) will offer up two more daily quests. One quest always stays the same:
Pressing the Attack – Complete two Tanaan bonus objectives.The other quest will be randomly selected from one of six:
Harnessing Their Power – Collect a Wargronn Harness from an Iron Wargronn at the Iron Front in Tanaan Jungle. Bloodied Blades of Zeth'Gol – Collect 25 Bleeding Hollow Ritual Blades from Bleeding Hollow orcs in Zeth'Gol. A Little Wetwork – Collect 15 Iron Horde Naval Manifects from forces in Ironhold Harbor. Breaking Their Fel Bonds – Collect 20 Vials of Fel Blood from fel orcs throughout Tanaan Jungle. Disarming Sha'naar – Collect 8 Unrefined Draenic Crystals from the mines located within the Temple of Sha'naar in Tanaan Jungle. Secrets of the Shadow Council – Collect 20 Shadow Council Missives from Shadow Council representatives in the Ruins of Kra'nak or the Throne Kil'jaeden.The final quest is not guaranteed to be up each. Parvink, an NPC found inside Lion's Watch, offers up one of several daily quests for various factions. One of the quests will be for the Hand of the Prophet. Quests include:
Demonslayer of Tanaan – Slay 20 demons in Tanaan Jungle. Bringing Down the Iron Horde – Slay 25 Iron Horde orcs in Tanaan Jungle.Awarding a whopping 1,000 reputation, the Medallion of the Legion can do much to push your reputation to the next level. However, it cannot be counted on as a reliable source of reputation for this faction. Rewarded from the Eldritch Horrors mission or dropped from the champions of Hellfire Citadel, the Medallion will be slightly difficult to come by.
The Garrison Campaign continues in Tanaan Jungle and you will be able to earn some reputation with this faction along the way. Several quests award reputation for the Hand of the Prophet:
The Assault Base The Battle for the West Commander in the Field! Secrets of the Sargerei The Eye of Kilrogg Dark Ascension The Cipher of DamnationThe Quartermaster for this faction is Vindicator Krethos. The Vindicator can be found peddling his faction rewards in Lion's Watch. This is an Alliance-only town found just west of the Dark Portal.
After doing all the hard work to earn favor with this faction, you will have the benefit of purchasing several faction-specific items as rewards. Here is what the Hand of the Prophet has to offer for your diligence:
