Steamwheedle Cartel Reputation

• Accept Zapped Giants from Zorbin FandazzleZapped Giants: 150 to every town
• Accept Fuel for the Zapping from Zorbin FandazzleFuel for the Zapping: 150 to every town

Five goblin towns share one reputation family, the Steamwheedle Cartel: Ratchet, Booty Bay, Gadgetzan, Everlook and Forever's new Powderfuse in the Riverglades. Everyone starts each at Neutral (500 into it). A gain with one town gives the others half as much; a quest for the Cartel itself, like Zorbin's, pays every town in full. Losses spread the same way: a Booty Bay Bruiser or any goblin of the towns costs 125 (half that with the other towns), and Bloodsail Buccaneers reputation is earned only that way. Zorbin camps on the road through central Feralas and works for anyone, even players the goblins hate. His first two quests are level 48: in Classic they paid less once you were 6 or more levels above them (a fifth at 57 and up), but they open his repeatables, which are level 55 and pay in full at 60.

• Use Zorbin's Ultra-ShrinkerOptionalZorbin's Ultra-Shrinker, on a living giant
• Collect Miniaturization Residue ×15 for Zapped GiantsMiniaturization Residue, from the zapped giants

Use Zorbin's Ultra-Shrinker on a living giant (Land Walker, Cliff Giant, or a Shore, Deep or Wave Strider, level 47–50) and it shrinks into a zapped version; kill that for its Miniaturization Residue, one every time. The Land Walkers and Cliff Giants in the north-west hills are the thickest; the striders walk the coast and the shallows. The shrinker lasts two hours: if it runs out, abandon the quest and take it again.

• Kill Sea Elemental or Sea Spray for Water Elemental Core ×10 for Fuel for the ZappingWater Elemental Core: Sea Elementals and Sea Sprays

The Sea Elementals and Sea Sprays (level 47–49) drift along the Forgotten Coast and in the shallows below the giants: about half drop a Water Elemental Core.

• Turn in Zapped Giants at Zorbin Fandazzle
• Turn in Fuel for the Zapping at Zorbin Fandazzle

From now on Zorbin offers Again With the Zapped Giants (10 residue) and Refuel for the Zapping (6 cores), again and again: 25 reputation with every town each time.

• Accept Southsea Shakedown from Security Chief BilgewhizzleSecurity Chief Bilgewhizzle, Steamwheedle Port
• Accept Pirate Hats Ahoy! from Haughty Modiste
• Kill Southsea Pirate ×10 for Southsea Shakedown
• Kill Southsea Freebooter ×10 for Southsea Shakedown
• Kill Southsea Dock Worker ×10 for Southsea Shakedown
• Kill Southsea Swashbuckler ×10 for Southsea Shakedown
• Collect Southsea Pirate Hat ×20 for Pirate Hats Ahoy!
• Turn in Southsea Shakedown at Security Chief Bilgewhizzle
• Turn in Pirate Hats Ahoy! at Haughty Modiste

The Southsea pirates of Lost Rigger Cove (level 44–45) on the east coast of Tanaris give Gadgetzan 5 each up to the end of Honored, and the other towns half. Two quests at Steamwheedle Port pay 100 Gadgetzan each: Southsea Shakedown (10 of each pirate) and Pirate Hats Ahoy! (20 Southsea Pirate Hats, one in ten pirates). From level 56 the pirates are grey and pay little: skip this step then.

• Accept Broodling Essence from Tinkee Steamboil
• Go to Scalding Broodlings west of Flame Crest Burning Steppes
• Go to Scalding Broodlings east of Flame Crest Burning Steppes
• Go to Black Broodlings in the north-east Burning Steppes
• Use Draco-Incarcinatrix 900OptionalDraco-Incarcinatrix 900, on a Black or Scalding Broodling
• Collect Broodling Essence ×8 for Broodling EssenceBroodling Essence, left by the broodlings
• Turn in Broodling Essence at Tinkee Steamboil100 to every town
• Accept Felnok Steelspring from Tinkee Steamboil

Tinkee Steamboil, a goblin at Flame Crest in the north of the Burning Steppes, has a chain that pays every town 150 and Everlook 150 more. Use her Draco-Incarcinatrix 900 on a broodling, kill it while the device holds it, and pick up the Broodling Essence it leaves. The device takes only Black and Scalding Broodlings, not the Flamescale Broodlings of the west: Scalding Broodlings (level 53–54) roam just west and east of Flame Crest, Black Broodlings (51–52) the north-east corner of the zone, the thickest group. They are few and spread out: the path passes both and ends among the Black Broodlings.

• Turn in Felnok Steelspring at Felnok Steelspring50 Everlook
• Accept Chillwind Horns from Felnok Steelspring
• Collect Uncracked Chillwind Horn ×8 for Chillwind HornsUncracked Chillwind Horn: Chillwind Chimaeras
• Turn in Chillwind Horns at Felnok Steelspring100 Everlook
• Accept Return to Tinkee from Felnok Steelspring

Felnok Steelspring is in Everlook. The Chillwind Chimaeras (level 55–57) south-west of Everlook drop the horns one time in five.

• Turn in Return to Tinkee at Tinkee Steamboil

Return to Tinkee gives 50 to every town. Her later quests, Egg Freezing (150 to every town) and Egg Collection (200), are done in the Rookery of Upper Blackrock Spire, a ten-player dungeon: take them up with your group.

• Reach level 57
• Go to Dire Maul Feralas
• Collect Gordok Shackle KeyOptionalGordok Shackle Key, Gordok ogres
• Accept Free Knot! from Knot ThimblejackOptionalFree Knot!: 150 to every town
• Turn in Free Knot! at Knot ThimblejackOptional
• Accept Free Knot! from Knot ThimblejackOptionalFree Knot!, again on every later run: 150
• Turn in Free Knot! at Knot ThimblejackOptional

Knot Thimblejack sits shackled in Dire Maul North, the Gordok ogres' wing (a five-player dungeon from level 57: group up). Every Gordok Shackle Key frees him once: 150 to every town, and he is shackled again on your next run. Gordok ogres drop the keys (about one in fifteen; Guard Fengus one in seven): a full run of the wing usually brings one. His Gordok Ogre Suit pays 100 the first time and 50 after, for 4 Bolts of Runecloth, 8 Rugged Leather, 2 Rune Thread and the Ogre Tannin from the basket in the wing. Under 57 when you get here? Unskip this step later.

Neutral 500 to Friendly is 2,500 with each town. The quests above pay every town up to 700 (Zorbin's two 300, Tinkee's 150, the first Free Knot 150 and the first Ogre Suit 100; less when you are well above their level); Zorbin's repeatables do the rest, 25 to every town each: 10 residue (ten giants) or 6 cores (about twelve elementals). The towns' own quests count too, each giving the other towns half: Ratchet's in the Barrens (levels 10–25, about 4,300: the Samophlange chain 625, Mebok Mizzyrix's errands, the Wizzlecrank and Gilthares escorts 150 each), Booty Bay's in Stranglethorn, Arathi and the Badlands (30–50, about 6,500: the three OOX robot rescues 250 each, An OOX of Your Own 200, Stranglethorn Fever 200, Facing Negolash 200, the Sunken Treasure chain at Faldir's Cove), Gadgetzan's in Tanaris (43–55, about 3,000: the Divino-matic Rod 200, Wastewander Justice 100 each, the WANTED posters) and Everlook's in Winterspring (52–60, about 1,450: Donova Snowden's Winterfall chain, Umi's yeti quests). Forever adds a few low ones: A Simmering Storm and Stormy Potential in Durotar and WANTED: Bruuz (Ratchet 100 each), Important Heirlooms in Ironforge (Gadgetzan 100). In Classic they pay in full only while at most 5 levels below you; past that each level takes a fifth off, down to a fifth. Kills help while they are not grey, 5 each: Southsea pirates in the Barrens for Ratchet and in Tanaris for Gadgetzan and Stranglethorn's Venture Co. camps for Booty Bay, up to the end of Honored; Wastewander bandits for Gadgetzan and Bloodsail pirates for Booty Bay only up to the end of Neutral. Friendly opens each quartermaster's first gear.

Friendly to Honored is 6,000: 240 of Zorbin's turn-ins, or 40 Free Knot runs, or a mix. Nothing can be saved up: residue and cores drop only while their quest is in your log, and you can carry one Gordok Shackle Key at a time, so hand each in before the next run. Honored opens each quartermaster's blue items.
