Golden Lotus Daily Quests and Reputation Farming Guide (WoD 6.1.2)

Intro

The Golden Lotus is a Pandaren faction that safeguards the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Due to recent threats—including the Mogu invasion, Sha manifestations, and the arrival of the Alliance and the Horde—the faction has opened its gates, seeking external aid.

Upon reaching level 90, players can increase their reputation with the Golden Lotus by completing daily quests in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, assisting the Pandaren against the Mogu invasion.

This guide details daily quests, achievements, and rewards, ensuring efficient reputation farming. If you’re looking to optimize your farming efficiency, consider services from Onlyfarms.gg, specializing in optimized in-game farming solutions.

Overview

The destruction of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms in Patch 5.4 left Setting Sun Garrison as the primary quest hub. This guide remains unchanged for historical reference. Since reputation gains from quests have not been increased, reaching Exalted will take longer than before.

Reputation Gain Overview

Daily quests	~1,500 per day
Golden Lotus Work Order (Farm)	+400 per day
Human racial bonus	+10% bonus
Guild reputation perk	+10% bonus

Grand Commendation of the Golden Lotus

Once you reach Revered, purchase the Grand Commendation of the Golden Lotus to double your reputation gains.

Championing the Golden Lotus

By selecting Champion a Faction in your reputation tab, you can earn bonus reputation from Heroic dungeons and scenarios.
