Unlocking Nazjatar
You’ll need to unlock World Quests, to do that you will need to be Friendly with Voldunai, Zandalari Empire and Talanjis Expedition for Horde or Storm’s Wake, Order of Embers, Proudmoore Admiralty. Once done head to your factions ship in Port of Dazaralor or Boralus.
Next up you’ll have to unlock Nazjatar. This will be obtained from Nathanos or Greymane on your factions ship.
Follow the questline and you’ll quickly arrive in Nazjatar, once there you’ll complete approximately 9 quests to finish the introduction. Once magni arrives it’s time to start his quest chain. Starting with Essential Empowerment you’ll head to the Chamber of Heart in Silithus.
He will then send you to Neltharion’s Lair in Highmountain. Complete the scenario and finally head back to the chamber and you’ll now unlock essences.
After completing this you’ll be sent back to Nazjatar, follow the quests available in Nazjatar until you unlock world quests in Nazjatar. At this point you’ll have most features of Nazjatar unlocked.
1) The best source of the reputation is an emissary, which gives 1500 reputation for completing 4 world quests.
2) Complete a weekly Mardivas lab summon. It is unlocked with a lesser benthic arcanocrystal, that randomly drops from mobs in Nazjatar. Mardivas Lab will have a quest available each week after you unlocked it here.
3) Complete daily quests in your hub, follower quests and world quests while using Contract: Unshackled or Contract:Ankoan – you can usually find it on the auction house.
4) Participate in bonus events such as Summons from the depths, where one elite being is summoned by Naga, right after a chat notification, and a battle for Nazjatar (a zone-wide pvp event). Both award reputation. Killing rares also awards a small amount of reputation.
5) Check the Murloc trader – Mrrl, sometimes he sells a Shadow-cloaked shell that grants rep. You need to equip a benthic cloak to see it.
6) Complete Elite Pet Battles that are part of elite pet battles within the zone. The first time you kill each enemy, you will get an item that turns in for 250 reputation. Pet battles can be easily won with full lvl 1 teams as BFA pets battles scale.
7) Finally, you can set up another alt for reputation farming. If you have a character who is revered or higher with the Unshackled or Waveblade Ankoan and has a bunch of spare prismatic manapearls, buy some Wavespwept abyssal conch from a quartermaster in your faction hub and mail them (they are account wide and can be used with any faction). Note, that they cannot be used past exalted, but you could buy some to set up a new alt for supply box farming if you want to double your rep gains.
Extra Tips: Humans gain 10% more reputation from all sources due to their racial passive. Additionally, 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.
