Are you ready to dive into the world of Azeroth and earn your stripes with the prestigious Wrynn's Vanguard? This detailed, step-by-step guide will walk you through the entire process, from finding the right location to becoming Exalted and reaping the rewards. Let's begin!
Step 1: Set Foot in Ashran
First things first, you need to travel to the battleground of Ashran. This is the central hub for all Wrynn's Vanguard activities and the key to earning reputation. Are you ready to face the Horde and prove your loyalty to the Alliance?
Ashran is a Warlords of Draenor PvP zone, but don't worry, you can still farm reputation here in a PvE environment. Your character must be level 100 or higher to enter.
-
For Alliance: Travel to Stormshield in Ashran.
-
For Horde: You'll be in Warspear, but you'll need to head to Ashran to fight the Alliance and earn your reputation.
The easiest way to get there is to use the portal in your faction's capital city (Stormwind for Alliance, Orgrimmar for Horde) that leads to your Garrison in Draenor. From there, you can fly to Ashran.

Step 2: Understand the Reputation Grind
Wrynn's Vanguard reputation is earned primarily through activities within Ashran. The main source of reputation comes from completing quests, killing enemy players, and turning in artifacts.
-
Know Your Enemy: The Horde counterpart to Wrynn's Vanguard is Vol'jin's Spear. You'll be fighting their forces throughout Ashran.
-
Start from Neutral: If you've never done any content in Ashran, your reputation with Wrynn's Vanguard will be Neutral. You'll need to work your way up through Friendly, Honored, Revered, and finally, Exalted.
Step 3: The Primary Method: Farming Artifacts
The most consistent and reliable way to gain reputation with Wrynn's Vanguard is by farming artifacts from mobs and players in Ashran.
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.
Sub-heading: Collect Artifact Fragments
Throughout Ashran, you will find various mobs, especially those in the PVE sections, that drop "Artifact Fragments." These fragments are the main currency you will use to gain reputation.
-
Kill Mobs: Head to the PVE areas of Ashran, such as the areas with ogres, elementals, or other creatures. These mobs have a chance to drop Artifact Fragments. You can farm them endlessly.
-
Don't Forget the Rares: Keep an eye out for rare mobs in Ashran. They often drop a larger number of fragments.
-
PvP is an option, but not required: If you're into PvP, killing enemy players in Ashran also grants reputation and can drop Artifact Fragments. However, you can easily reach Exalted by focusing solely on PvE content.
Sub-heading: Turn in Fragments for Reputation
Once you have a stack of Artifact Fragments, you can turn them in for a significant reputation boost.
-
Where to Turn Them In: Head back to your base in Ashran (Stormshield).
-
Find the Quest Giver: Look for the quest giver who accepts Artifact Fragments. They are usually located in the central area of your base. They will offer a repeatable quest that allows you to turn in a stack of fragments for reputation.
-
Maximize Your Gains: Turning in a large stack of fragments at once can feel very rewarding! The more you turn in, the faster you'll see your reputation bar fill up.
Step 4: Secondary Methods: Quests and Events
While farming fragments is the most reliable method, there are other ways to earn reputation.
Sub-heading: Complete Daily and Weekly Quests
-
Check the Quest Board: There are several quests available in your Ashran base. These can include daily quests to kill a certain number of enemies, complete a specific objective, or gather certain items.
-
Join in on Events: Ashran has dynamic events that occur throughout the zone. Participating in these events, such as assaulting the enemy's base or defending your own, can award a large chunk of reputation. Keep an eye on your map and chat for announcements.
Sub-heading: Use a Trading Post
QuickTip: Read section by section for better flow.
If you have a level 2 or 3 Trading Post in your Garrison, you can use it to gain a reputation boost.
-
Work Orders: The Trading Post allows you to place work orders for certain resources. These work orders can sometimes award reputation tokens for various Draenor factions, including Wrynn's Vanguard.
Step 5: Reaching Exalted and Claiming Your Rewards
Once you reach the coveted Exalted reputation, you can access all the exclusive rewards offered by Wrynn's Vanguard.
-
Find the Quartermaster: The Wrynn's Vanguard Quartermaster, Magister Langley, is located in your Ashran base at coordinates 54.6, 17.6.
-
Check Out the Rewards: The quartermaster sells a variety of items, including the coveted Pale Thorngrazer mount, a unique tabard, and other cosmetic and useful items.
Congratulations! You have now become a shining example of Alliance loyalty and earned your place among the Wrynn's Vanguard.
