It was my understanding that come 8.1, as long as you were exalted with a specific faction you could go to the vendor of that faction on an alt, and buy gear, for example, that required exalted status? This doesn’t appear to be the case.
I swore I heard this talked about at Blizzcon and it was said.
Also, I know the account-wide flightmaster map has been temporarily removed for those wondering due to a bug.
It’s only for Champions for Azeroth, you get all the quests to upgrade your HoA if you already got it before.
I believe that was for tabards and toys to transmog/use them.
Champions of Azaroth the achievement would trigger the upgrade quests.
You can’t BUY anything on an alt that does not have the rep, but, what you can do, is use the Tabards that are hidden behind Exalted reps through the transmog window. The only thing you can go and do that required rep before is the CoA rep, where you can now go and get the extra 45 ilvl’s for the neck.
Nope, what they said is that reputation requirements are removed from item appearances but not the actual items. That way once you aquire an item and unlock the appearance you can use it on any character even if it required reputation to obtain. You just misunderstood
Darn, I wanted those.
this is what people have been asking for for years basically. and recipes.
however as i understand it, what we are getting will be:
so i still wont be able to get plate or 2h’s or recipes for other professions on my rogue, even though its exalted with EVERYTHING. i will need to get exalted on all armor types and with each profession user.
limp d*** changes which ignores what people have been asking for, for years, in relation to rep changes and making them account bound.
Yup, this was pretty nice for my alt Priest.
Shame the Flightmaster map isn’t available yet!
From what I’ve seen, it’s been removed at the minute for some sort of bug. Any clue what the bug was?
UGH! I knew they wouldn’t have fixed all the bugs, they are truly useless sometimes. Why release something so late if you don’t even fix the freakin’ bugs?! 
MAWR!!
Make Account-wide repuation!!
Unfortunately, blizzard is against people enjoying the game, for whatever reason.
I would’ve liked the vendor items to become BoA, it’s silly to think someone would grind the reps on each armor class just for some random mog boots, but it still scratches at the part of my brain that laughs at my incomplete mog list.
They should add 7th Legion/Honorbound to the list.
Being gated behind rep for the story when you already got exalted on a main seems weird.
I swapped main, now I have to grind rep again just to see 15 min story
You knew 5 days ago when i told you in this thread
With the link to wowhead telling you that the rep would only account for the achivements NOT recipes or gear.
Why do it again then.
agreed. Heck, don’t insult limp d***, even that is better than blizzard’s beta for azeroth .
I was thinking that the reputations would be acc bound with 8.1 … or I am wrong ?
Only thing I noticed, any different is that this character now has 92 Exalted Rep.'s, where he had <90 yesterday.
Not looked much further than Boralus, yet but if the CoA change did go through, it wasn’t yelled about anywhere as loudly as new profession Recipes, new War Campaign & new Warfront.
Exalted reputations achievement is now counting account-wide, not by characters (mirrored factions-specific reputations still count as one)
How to make Champion of azeroth account wide to alts?
Do I need to get exalted in champion of azeroth?
