Wichita, KS | On my human the 10 token turnins net me 275 rep each. That would be ALOT of tokens. Just do the dailies, they're silly easy, the wyrm daily is alot of fun, and you'll also make some decent money in the process. |

You get 250 (275 as human) per turn in of 10 relics, so do some maths (yes, maths  ) based off of where you're at currently with them.
3,000 - Neutral to Friendly
6,000? - Friendly to Honored
12,000? - Honored to Revered
21,000 - Revered to Exalted |

clubs: | goggalor beat me...yeah about right, its stupid, doing dailys and farming the relics is the cheapest way to go about it, buy em if you got 10k gold and are bored with dailies |

I bought them all it ran me about 1,500g as they are about 1g each on my server so 1,500 = 1,500g. 10 times faster to buy them and make 1.5kg for me then farm them. |

Ya I'm definately not questing / farming these. I got the $$ so I'd prefer to just buy the relics. Ty for your help all |

I think -_- (Sorry if I'm wrong) |

| Yes, you need to do the quest chain that opens up the dailies first otherwise you can't turn in the relics (although I thought you can do that at neutral - sorry, its been a year or 2 since I did those quests).

Takes about 2 hours to get to the point you can start handing them in. You have to do the quest chain or it's impossible to get rep with them.
After that a non-human would need to buy the following.
120 to reach Friendly.
240 more to reach Honored.
480 more to reach Revered.
840 more to reach Exalted.
That's a total of 1680 to reach Exalted if you didn't do a single quest.
You could save a fair amount of gold by doing the 3 or 4 quests that take under 5 minutes to complete, and often end up with 10 or 20 relics without trying as a bonus.
For me spending 1500-2000 gold on a shoulder enchant is a bit much when you could get a 10 man BOE Ulduar drop with better stat increases for the same amount. But if you're in a hurry that's what it usually costs. |

But if you're in a hurry that's what it usually costs. Nice info and post overall. I will add that your BoE drop item is worth 0g once you upgrade where the rep will work for all upgrades. The other road you can take is inscriptions. If you get that to 400 you can skip SoH rep completely and you still have a nice trade to make gold with. That road costs about the same as buying the relics but you get a 400 skill trade too. |

Don't forget you can get shoulder enchants for shards as well. I know they're not the greatest but at least it's something. |

I'm working on SoH rep as we speak but i'm not sweating it. I just get the Wintergrasp shoulder enchants for 30 or 40 stonekeeper shards. Its easy to attain and the spellpower stat is not much less than SoH ones really (can't remember exactly). I want the SoH enchant for the crit as secondary stat once im able tho. |

Also, don't forget at Friendly you can buy the SoH tabard, which converts all level 80 instance rep to SoH rep. Do some instances runs each day, and it won't take long at all |

Having ignored SoH previously, now I'm working on rep with them. It's not that bad- buy relics from the AH when you can find them reasonably cheap, and run dailies which offer some extra gold anyways.
Keep in mind that once you hit honored and revered, a new daily quest opens up. Between the relics you might buy from the AH, the relics that drop while doing the dailies, and the rep from the dailies themselves, it's not that bad a grind. |
