Allied races not exalted with their races

I levelled a Vulpera from 20 to 120 and as I wanted to buy some recipes from the Voldunai vendor I noticed I’m not exalted with my own race.

This confused me, so I checked a few freshly made level 20s of the horde allied races to see that their hometown rep was:

Nightfallen: exalted with Nightfallen
Highmountain Tauren: friendly with Highmountain
Mag’har Orc: friendly with Orgrimmar
Zandalari trolls: honored with Zandalar
Vulpera: honored with Voldunai

Anyone care to guess why these reps are so random?
Considering we had to grind rep to unlock them, it would make more sense that they already have exalted or even revered with their respective races, no?

You’re an outcasted pariah.

Your own kind don’t like you! Probably because you wore a red MAGA (Make Azeroth Great Again) cap or something…

I believe Nightborne get exalted because they cannot do the Nightfallen questline in suramar, so cannot earn rep through that. Didn’t know that the others had a mix of friendly and honoured though, that’s odd.

I thought the way you did but look at it this way, I’m not exalted with humans because I am one. Nobody gives a monkeys about who I am.

Why should say, a Dark Iron be a celebrated exalted one of his kind just because he’s DI? :man_shrugging:

To add, I’m pretty sure there’s a mechanical reason why NB are exalted iirc?

Nightborne have the Suramar quest line completed and it’s not possible to complete lower than exalted; that hippie hanging around their tree gives his final “talk to me and get xp” quest at that reputation.

Similarily Talanji only becomes queen after trolltown siege and there’s no way you’ll reach that part of the story without hitting honoured.

For the Voldunai I have no idea. I don’t imagine the vulpera have a spesific quest state set upon creation, but I haven’t played mine far enough to see.

All other races always start out as friendly with their own faction, so it’s not surprising when this is the case for ARs.

Nope, Vulpera do the entire Vol’dun, just as characters of other races would. Even though we get our Heritage Armor in Vulpera Hideout. Meaning we have to complete the introduction to Vol’dun in order to get it.

… even though that hardly takes long to do, it’s still incredibly stupid and bad design. Also really weird; most, if not all, other heritage sets are collected in the starter zone.

Agree. I don’t mind it since Vol’dun is a good zone, but it still feels weird from a lore and design point of view.

The npc vulpera even decribe to your vulpera who and what vulpera are. :slight_smile:

They could have added a few IF Race=Vulpera THEN “another quest text” in the quests.

Its possible, there exists a few places if you play goblin where you get slightly different quest text. Only race I have found any, tho…

Aye, best part with Vulpera is how they don’t acknowledge you as their own kind XD I found it really funny when I did Vol’dun quests on my Vulpera.
I was like ‘Heeey, it’s meee, I’m one of you!’
