As of 9/26/2024, Horde Earthen still are having a problem with Orgrimmar, Darkspear Trolls, and Thunder Bluff reps. Thought I would also do an update post.
So about a week roughly before the last maintenance, I talked to a Darkspear Troll and Thunder Bluff NPC to see the “you are now netural” message pop up again, though both of those reps aren’t listed in my rep pane:
The messages don’t appear again when I log off and talk to the NPC’s. It’s similar to how this happened before.
For Dark Talons rep, it did pop up a message of being neutral as before, with the rep getting added to my reputation pane again:
This time, however, the rep has stayed in my reputation pane when logging off instead of being removed from my reputations pane. I even checked today (9/26/2024), and it’s still there at 0/3,000. I have not tried to earn rep with them to see it that still stays or if it resets.
And because those three Horde reps aren’t listed in my reputation pane, there isn’t any way to earn rep with them. It doesn’t record any supposed rep gains in the background. Doing Orgrimmar cooking/fishing dailies, for example, just gives a generic Horde rep gain message that doesn’t affect Orgrimmar rep:
Interestingly, on my Horde Earthen’s reputation page on the armory website at the time this post was made, it has the missing reps listed there, but all at Neutral 0/3,000 despite not appearing in-game. You can see my Horde Earthen’s armory rep here:
I checked random Horde Earthen characters’ armory pages from the forums and none of them have any Orgrimmar rep that is above Neutral (0/3,000) with Darkspear Trolls and Thunder Bluff not listed on the pages I’ve seen.
I know there are plenty of bugs lately, given all the extended maintenance we have been having. I’m still hoping this bug is still known by Blizzard and is on the “to-fix” list somewhere. It’s just honestly frustrating to not be able to do things I like to do with alts like working on their faction’s main reps, and to see weeks go by without a word on whether this is a known issue or not is worrying.
If there is anything I can do to help out or test out, I will be happy to do so if requested. To those who are looking into and attempting to fix this problem, please know that it is very much appreciated.
Thank you!
