Family: Kodo
Type: Reputation / Vendor
Faction: Horde
Zone: Thunder Bluff
Sold By: Harb Clawhoof
Recommended Level: Level 40
Skill Level: 1/10
Obtaining: The Great Brown Kodo is purchased from a vendor after reaching exalted status with the Thunder Bluff faction.
1) To max out your reputation level you will first have to buy the Thunder Bluff tabard from Brave Tuho and then run dungeons repeatedly while wearing the tabard. However, if you have a Tauren character (class trials included), you can skip to step 2.
With the tabard equipped Any dungeon can be used for the purpose of the rep grind, but generally the better dungeons to run are Botanica Normal or Magister’s Terrace Normal. Thus, this grind can be completed entirely passively and can be combined with any other instance farming to maximize the efficiency.
2) After reaching exalted status with the Thunder Bluff faction the mount can be bought for a tiny amount of gold from a vendor Harb Clawhoof. Taurens can buy their faction mounts regardless of their reputation status. Thus, the fastest way of obtaining the mount is creating a Class Trial Tauren character of any Class, sending them around 50g and using it to buy and learn the various Wolf mounts. The class trial character can be deleted afterwards.
Extra Tips: Countless reputation buffs can be utilized to speed up your reputation gains slightly, such as the Darkmoon Faire Buff (DMF is around for one week every month), WOW Anniversary buff or other mini-holiday related buffs such as Hollow’s End one.
