Achievement Guide: The Diplomat

Over the last week or so, when I wasn’t doing dailies, I was trying to wrap up the grindtastic The Diplomat achievement for the cool title and WoW street cred it offers. This achievement requires Exalted status with three somewhat out of the way factions: the Kurenai (for Alliance), the Mag’har (for Horde) and then Sporeggar and finally Timbermaw Hold.

Kurenai / Mag’har

Of the three Exalted reputations you need I think you’ll find this the easiest. In fact, many of you who are level 80 and have been playing the game for awhile probably have this one done already. The ogres in Nagrand drop an item called Obsidian Warbeads that can be turned in 10 at a time for 500 reputation. Kill enough ogres, collect enough warbeads and you’ll be at Exalted quickly enough.

Sporeggar

This one can be easy as well, especially if you’re willing to spend a little money during the process. There are two repeatable quests for the Sporeggar that you must complete, over and over, to reach Exalted. They are Now That We’re Still Friends… and Bring Me ANother Shrubbery!. The first can easily be soloed by any level 80 player over and over. There are a large collection of Bloodscale mobs just north of the quest giver. As for the Shrubbery quest, I’ve written extensively about collecting Sanguine Hibiscus before but you can either grind for them in the Underbog or buy them in the Auction House for about 5 gold a piece.

Timbermaw Hold

This last achievement requires the most grinding that I’ve seen in-game in a long, long time on my character. You’re going to be spending a lot of time in Felwood completing this part of the achievement. In the north and south of the zone are Deadwood mobs that drop the quest item Deadwood Headdress Feather and give you 20 reputation per kill up to Revered. By the time you hit Revered, if you’ve collected 350 of the feathers along the way you can finish the repeatable quest Feathers for Nafien 70 times in a row to hit Exalted.
