I didn’t realize it had become this bad. I have a worgen alt I just ran through Exile’s Reach. I’d love to buy him a Gilneas tabard so that he can get reputation while running Timewalking dungeons.
“Easy,” I said. “I’ll just nip off to the Stormwind Embassy, find Lord Candren, and buy a tabard.” Neither he nor the Darnassus reputation vendors are showing up in Stormwind.
“Okay, maybe I have to take the boat/portal to where Darnassus used to be and buy it there.” There is no boat or portal to Darnassus, The Exodar, or anywhere at all in Kalimdor from Stormwind. There are tons of night elf accoutrements at the south end of the Harbor (where the portal/boat used to be), but none of the NPCs can send me across the ocean.
Why are there so many docks if I can’t get where I need to go? I can get to other continents or worlds easily but not to Kalimdor. I guess I’ll have to either find a mage or take the boat to where Theramore used to be, but they really need to fix our useless Stormwind Harbor.

There’s portals everywhere.
Even the old zeppelins in Orgrimmar are a bit outdated now- the Undercity one just is gone, similar to the boat to Darnassus.
I’m pretty sure there’s a Worgen and Night Elf vendor somewhere in Stormwind.
You can still get to old Darnassus if you go to Darkshore and talk to Zidormi there.
My god, though. Teldrassil is a huge eyesore- I flew up there with dynamic flight.
I can see why they burned it, lol.
It’s easily the worst-looking zone, from an outside perspective. (The tree trunk itself.)
It looked worse than old Desolace.

It’s still there. But I think it’s phased to anyone who isn’t level 80. No idea why.
Also I don’t think tabard rep works for expacs after TBC. I could be wrong though.

It should be on the docks. Where the boat used to be. Unless you’re on a quest that’s phased it out or you’re too low level.

I think you can also just port to Boralus and take the port to Darkshore from there if the ally control that warfront for the week.

There’s a portal to Darnassus on the southernmost dock in Stormwind. It seems level agnostic, since I just checked it on my lvl 12 upon whom I also completed Exile’s Reach, so unless you’re otherwise phased it should be there and working.
There’s also a portal to the Exodar in the portal room of the Wizard’s Sanctum in Stormwind’s Mage District. It’s to the right after you enter, all the way down and on your left.
You’re lower level, so you should already be in the correct phase to reach Darnassus, but if you aren’t it’s as simple as going from wherever a portal spits you out to Zidormi or whatever the dragon’s name is in Darkshore and having her phase you; she ought to be marked on your map with a white speaking icon, if not she’s a little southwest of Lor’danel. From there you’d just fly or take the boat from Lor’danel to Rut’theran Village.
The rep vendor you seek should be to your left after you’ve taken the teleporter from Rut’theran to Darnassus.

While I agree travel is a nightmare to some places, like Gilneas which as zero way to get directly there and fastest is honestly either flying directly there in 3 minutes or taking the Boralus Ironforge portal then flight.
There is a Darnassus portal as mentioned, however it spits you out in Darkshore depending on BFA progression/Zidormi.
But yeah, we need more portals, IC wise they’re not really there. It’s just for OOC ease of travel.

As I said, there is no Darnassus portal on the dock. Maybe it’s because my worgen is phased weirdly, but the left dock is all related to Dragonflight. I did not pick Chromie Time or anything.

Enter Cataclysm Chromie time, the portal will appear.

You could try picking Chromie Time Cataclysm.
Otherwise there’s still the portal to the Exodar in the Wizard’s Sanctum.

That only works if you’ve done the War Campaign.
If you started the DF intro quests, you may need to finish those. My DF intro quest on my level 24 is still “The Dragon Isles Await” and I haven’t talked to Wrathion yet. The portal is there for her.

Step 1: Chromie Time to Burning Crusade
Step 2: Portal to Darnassus from Stormwind, or Mage portal
Step 3: Find the guy on horseback and buy one
Not that complicated.
They don’t necessarily work though - e.g. I skipped DragonFlight, the portal in Org to V-something doesn’t work and I’m not sure how to unlock it.
I would just take the boat to Theramore and fly straight there, it’s not that long of a travel.
Thank you for the solutions, guys. I just hope Blizzard will look at travel in the future.
