Brood of Nozdormu Reputation Farming Guide

While the Brood of Nozdormu reputation was not released yet in Season of Discovery, we will post here about any upcoming changes, as they are released.

Your Brood of Nozdormu reputation will start from "Hated" status at 0/36000. To fix that, there are several methods to gain reputation:

• killing trash mobs inside AQ20 and AQ40 up to Neutral (1 to 3000);
• farming Silithid Carapace Fragments from silithids in Silithus for the repeatable quest: The Hand of the Righteous (200 fragments for 500 reputation); this unlocks after completing The Path of the Righteous in the very early stages of the Scepter;
• killing bosses inside AQ20 and AQ40 from Neutral until Exalted;
• completing quests from the Scepter;
• completing reward quests in Ahn'Qiraj (see next section).

The main rewards of the Brood of Nozdormu faction come from the items that drop in Ahn'Qiraj and begin a quest.

As listed in the previous section, after slaying C'Thun in the AQ40, you will be able to loot the Eye of C'Thun, which starts a small quest line leading you to Anachronos in the Caverns of Time and rewarding you with reputation and the epic ring: Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight.

Every time you reach a new reputation tier with the Brood of Nozdormu, you can go back to Anachronos to upgrade your ring (and gain 250 extra reputation in the process). Depending on your specialization, you will have the option to choose one of three kinds. See the complete list of all the rings below:

• Protector Rings (Strength, Stamina and Defense)
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Neutral
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Friendly
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Honored
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Revered
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Exalted
• Conqueror Rings (Agility, Stamina and Hit)
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Neutral
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Friendly
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Honored
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Revered
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Exalted
• Invoker Rings (Intellect, Stamina, Spell Damage and Healing, and Mana per second)
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Neutral
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Friendly
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Honored
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Revered
  • Signet Ring of the Bronze Dragonflight — Exalted

Class quests to complete the Ahn'Qiraj Armor Sets (Tier 2.5) are given by Brood of Nozdormu NPCs in the AQ40 and each require a certain reputation level:

• Quests for the Head slot items are given by Andorgos and require Friendly reputation;
• Quests for the Shoulder slot items are given by Andorgos and require Neutral reputation;
• Quests for the Chest slot items are given by Vethsera and require Honored;
• Quests for the Legs slot items are given by Kandrostrasz and require Friendly reputation;
• Quests for the Feet slot items are given by Kandrostrasz and require Neutral reputation.

A detailed listing of the items needed for each piece can be found on Wowpedia.

Bosses in AQ40 may also rarely drop Imperial Qiraji Armaments or Imperial Qiraji Regalia. Bringing these items to Arygos or Merithra of the Dream respectively in Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, with the additional material of 3x Elementium Ore per quest, will reward both 500 reputation points and a weapon.

Note that these weapon quests do not require any reputation level to be completed and are repeatable. One-Handed weapon rewards are not unique and, if the player's class supports that, can be Dual-Wielded.

As mentioned before, this long quest line is required to open the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj and it is completed by working with the Brood of Nozdormu faction. This mainly rewards extra reputation when completing each quest in the quest line, but also several epic items at certain steps. We are working on a complete guide for it.

In the end, and with the effort of every player contributing to the cause, one chosen player per realm will be able to open the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj by using The Scepter of the Shifting Sands on the Scarab Gong.

This player will be awarded both with the Scarab Lord title and the Legendary mount Black Qiraji Resonating Crystal.

A detailed overview of the event leading up to the opening of the gates can be found on: Ahn'Qiraj War Effort Overview.

Full guide of the quest line can be found on: Scepter of the Shifting Sands and Scarab Lord Guide.
