[General] Steamwheedle dock

  1. Gummo <The Pacifist>, 11 months ago:

    Anyone else think that removing the small shack on Steamwheedle dock might be Blizzard making it ready to use for a boat to Undermine for a future expansion?

    I didn't know they'd done that--very intriguing!

    I hope they do, but i hope they don't. After killing tons of Goblins to become a Bloodsail Admiral, I thinki it might be hard for me to quest if the goblins are in charge of sea travel...

    Good point about Bloodsail Admirals; according to the wowwiki, the Steamwheedle cartel is the largest, but apparently not the only Undermine goblin faction, so it's possible a new goblin faction would run the ship. Since good reputation generally doesn't apply to new expansions, maybe the same will be true for goblin rep, and bad Steamwheedle Cartel rep won't count against e.g. Steamwheedle Cabal rep (to make up a new faction).

    Note that Area 52 and Cosmowrench, both in Netherstorm are Steamwheedle Cartel, but the goblin city of K3 in Northrend isn't.

    I'm so sick of people whinging about how killing thousands of goblins to get their bloodsail admiral hat prevents them from doing goblin only quests (the cooking artisan quest, fishing competition ect). NO-ONE FORCED YOU to get your stupid hat, you choose it, knowing full well of the consequences.

    On top of that, it IS POSSIBLE to grind your reputation with the goblins back up to neutral!

    Additionally it is POSSIBLE (although a very long grind) to earn exalted status with both Bloodsail Buccaneers and the factions of the Steamwheedle cartel simultaneously.

    Even if you didn't want to go that route, you can grind your steamwheedle rep back up to neutral or better without lowering your bloodsail rep, and without having to grind dire maul for the escort quest.

    All ya gotta do is kill Venture Co. mobs (either in STV, or near venture bay in grizzly hills) Each mob nets you 5 booty bay reputation (and 2.5 reputation with each of the other steamwheedle factions)
