Upon completing these quests you will get some reputation:
350 reputation with The Consortium
350 reputation with Thrallmar
350 reputation with Honor Hold

Everything fine so far right? No WRONG!

The issue here is, that you will get as an alliance toon 350 reputation with Thrallmar (hordefaction) if you complete one of the quests and you are already exalted with Honor Hold (alliance faction).

How to reproduce:

1. Get alliance toon
2. Get exalted with Honor Hold
3. complete one of the quests

Result: You will get reputation for the horde faction

Furthermore the issue also affects Hordetoons:

1. Get horde toon

Result: You will get reputation for the alliance faction

is being exalted with honor hold a requirement?
does it also give you honor hold rep as horde if you are exalted with thrallmar?
is there another quest in db with the same name/text that maybe could be used for alliance instead (blizzard is known to duplicate quests just for reward changes and/or subtle text changes)

@Shauren:

is being exalted with honor hold a requirement?

It's required. If you are not exalted with honor hold, you will not get reputation to thrallmar.
If you are exalted with honor hold and keep completing the quest, you will get reputation for thrallmar as an alliance toon.

does it also give you honor hold rep as horde if you are exalted with thrallmar?

indeed, the same issue exists for the other faction. (i will update the titel and the description)

is there another quest in db with the same name/text that maybe could be used for alliance instead (blizzard is known to duplicate quests just for reward changes and/or subtle text changes)

sadly no, we could fix this with conditions then, but as already said, there is not another questentry

[Shauren]

maybe its just the client that doesnt show you gaining reputation until exalted but you actually do?

[Rushor]

maybe its just the client that doesnt show you gaining reputation until exalted but you actually do?

i actually get real reputation. furthermore the reputation gain will be added to you reputation list (pressing U)

[Shauren]

i meant that you get thrallmar rep all the time even if not exalted with honor hold but the gain only shows in chat/scrolling text when exalted with honor hold

[Rushor]

oh okay, well thats not the case
if it would be like that you would have a big reputation already if you reach the exalted point with the other faction

but for now it's like that:

1. get exalted with honor hold (as alliance char)
2. complete 1 quest
3. get reputation for thrallmar -> reputation after first completion after beeing exaltet will be 350/xx (neutral).
   it doesn't matter how often you completed the quests before.
   the reputation will only be added first for the unfriendly faction if you are already exalted with the friendly faction

Could these factions be added to reputation_spillover_template.faction and set all the following columns to 0 (zero) ? Or must it be fixed with changes in the core source?

[SnapperRy]

Also happens with Honor Above All Else, though that does not require any exalted reputation.

Quest rewards 10 reputation to Alliance Vanguard, for BOTH Alliance and Horde characters.

Horde players will notice a gain of reputation with Frostborn (Alliance-only faction), because it is the only one of the factions linked to Alliance Vanguard that don't have FACTION_FLAG_INVISIBLE_FORCED set in DBC. Same with Hand of Vengeance for Alliance players (although I have yet to find a neutral/Alliance quest for them).

Solved both issues explained by Rushor and SnapperRy.
