Vol'jin's Headhunters are a new Horde specific faction being released with World of Warcraft Patch 6.2, along with the brand new zone; Tanaan Jungle. Eager for a decisive victory in Draenor, Warchief Vol'jin has assembled a team of the very best to establish a foothold in the untamed Tanaan Jungle. The mission of this team is pretty straightforward; eradicate Gul'dan.
It is up to you and other heroes of the Horde like you to help them accomplish this vital mission. It must not fail. Read onward to find out how you can earn reputation with this brand new faction, as well as the potential rewards you may earn from earning their favor.
The Quartermaster for this faction can be found in the Horde town of Vol'mar in Tanaan Jungle. This city is in the center of the zone, just west of the Dark Portal. Shadow Hunter Denjai by name, this Quartermaster spends his time camped out near the back wall of Vol'mar Hold. This is also the location of your Tanaan Planning Map.
Earning reputation for this faction is all in the daily quests. Each player may complete three (with a potential fourth bonus quest) of these quests per character daily. These three quests will come from two different sources:
Each day the Tanaan Planning Map, much like the Command Table inside your Garrison, will offer up two of seven different dailies. These dailies include:
Assault on the Throne of Kil'Jaeden Assault on the Temple of Sha'naar Assault on Ironhold Harbor Bleeding the Bleeding Hollow Battle at the Iron Front Assault on the Ruines of Kra'nak Asaault on the Fel ForgeLike Apexis dailiies, you may choose one of the two to complete that day. These quests will award 500 reputation for Vol'jin's Headhunters, as well as Apexis Crystals and Oil for your Shipyard.
After you have completed your quest from the Tanaan Planning Map, two new daily quests will open up from Shadow Hunter Denjai. One of the quests will always be Pressing the Attack, to complete two bonus objectives in Tanaan Jungle. Completing this quest will award 250 reputation as well as some Apexis Crystals.
The second quest will be randomly selected. These are the potential quests you could see pop up:
Bringing Down the Iron Horde – Slay 25 Iron Horde Orcs in Tanaan Jungle. 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. Secrets of the Shadow Council – Collect 20 Shadow Council Missives from Shadow Council representatives in the Ruins of Kra'nak or the Throne of Kil'jaeden. A Little Wetwork – Collect 15 Iron Horde Naval Manifests from forces in Ironhold Harbor. Blood of Fallen Brothers – Collect 20 Vials of Fel Blood from fel orcs throughout Tanaan Jungle. Disarming Sha'naar – Collect 8 Unrefined Draenic Crystals from the mines located inside the Temple of Sha'naar in Tanaan Jungle.Each of these quests will award 250 reputation and 500 Apexis Crystals upon completion.
On occasion, a fourth quest awarding reputation for this faction may be available. Nimi Brightcastle, an NPC inside Vol'mar offers up quests for various factions. Nimi has two quests that will award reputation for Vol'jin's Headhunters:
Bringing Down the Iron Horde – Slay 25 Iron Horde orcs in Tanaan Jungle. Demonslayer of Tanaan – Slay 20 demons in Tanaan Jungle.While the daily quest grind is where most of your reputation gain will come from for this faction, there are a few other methods to earn yourself favor.
The Medallion of the Legion is a reward from the Eldritch Horros mission and can also drop from the mobs required for the Hellbane (defeat all of the champions of Hellfire Citadel in Tanaan Jungle) achievement. This Medallion awards 1,000 reputation.
While questing through the Tanaan Jungle you will find that a few quests will award you reputation with Vol'jin's Headhunters. These quests are all part of the main quest line and cannot be easily missed, however, a few of them will not appear until you are several weeks into the Garrison Campaign. These quests should not be relied upon as steady sources of reputation gain. The quests that will award you reputation with this faction are as follows:
The Assault Base The Battle for West Commander in the Field! Dark Ascension The Eye of Kilrogg Secrets of the Sargerei The Cipher of DamnationEarning reputation with any faction is hard work and deserves a just reward.
