How to Get Exalted in "Cataclysm"
- 1). Purchase the faction's tabard and wear it. Depending on the faction you want to raise, where you purchase the tabard will vary. Each faction's quartermaster sells its factions tabard.
- 2). Enter any instance, except for "Burning Crusade" content. As long as you wear the tabard in the instance, all reputation is converted to the faction of your donned tabard.
- 3). Repeat Step 2 as necessary until you raise your reputation all the way to Exalted. Press "U" at any time to check on your progression.
