'''Sporeggar''' is a [[town]] found along the western edge of [[Zangarmarsh]] which is populated by the [[sporeling]]s. The [[sporeling]]s are a mostly peaceful race of mushroom-men native to [[Outland]]. Unfortunately, the changing climate of the marsh has put them in danger. Adventurers that assist their survival will be justly rewarded.

[[Category:Wrath of the Lich King]]
=== Strategy ===
 
The best way, when leveling, is to kill [[Bog Lord]]s of one variety or another (herbalists can harvest the corpses for herbs as skinners skin beasts). This will net you 15 reputation each. The repeatable quest {{Questlong|Neutral|62|More Fertile Spores}} rewards 750 reputation per completion. It requires turning in 6 {{Loot|Common|Fertile Spores}} to [[Gshaff]]. Fertile Spores are a 30% drop rate from [[Spore Walker|spore walker]]s (Marsh Walkers and Fen Striders) and [[spore bat]]s. Each of those kills, therefore, is approximately 22.5 reputation on average. Fertile Spores can also be found on the auction house.
 
 
[[Marsh Dredger]]s and [[Marsh Lurker]]s found in Funggor Caverns give 15 reputation per kill all the way to {{reputation|exalted}}. Killing them and the named mob [[Lord Klaq]] repeatedly going in and out of the caverns is an option if you are looking for a mindless, quick grind. The mobs also respawn rather quickly, so by the time you run one circuit of the caverns and clear the mobs directly outside the caverns, those inside the caverns should have started respawning.
 
 
If you can get the tradeable drops with another character or friend or auctions, you can also do Bog Lord Tendrils/Mature Spore Sacs/Glowcaps which gets you from {{reputation|unfriendly}} to {{reputation|friendly}} after only 8 turn-ins. Killing mobs in [[Slave Pens|The Slave Pens]] of [[Coilfang Reservoir]] has been rumored to give reputation, but this is false.
 
 
{{Loot|Common|Sanguine Hibiscus}} is a ground spawn - found in The Underbog and used for the quest {{quest|Bring Me A Shrubbery!}} and {{quest|Bring Me Another Shrubbery!}} - and has a relatively short respawn timer. It's worth 5-10 minutes running back through the instance after your group has finished to collect any new respawns; doing this can net you enough {{Loot|Common|Sanguine Hibiscus}} for another 1-2 quest turn-ins (750-1500 rep).
 
 
=== Reputation farming at level 80 ===
 
The quests {{Questlong|Neutral|65|Bring Me A Shrubbery!}} and {{Questlong|Neutral|65|Bring Me Another Shrubbery!}} (the repeatable version) involve collecting {{Loot|Common|Sanguine Hibiscus}} from [[Underbog]]. The plant drops from all of the mobs up to the [[Naga]] in the instance, making it possible to obtain between 25-30 plants in a 30minute solo run. This nets a minimum of 3750 rep every 30 mins. It is also easier than the repeatable Naga quest since you don't have to hunt for the Bloodscale Slavedrivers, and it removes the travel component.
 
 
=== Reputation farming at level 70 ===
 
The quests {{Questlong|Neutral|64|Now That We're Friends...}} and {{Questlong|Neutral|64|Now That We're Still Friends...}} (the repeatable version) involve killing 12 Bloodscale Slavedrivers and 6 Bloodscale Enchantresses (level 61-64 mobs). This is 31.25 reputation per kill, and 41.66 per kill for the repeatable version, which is more reputation per kill on average than farming Fertile Spores, assuming a 30% drop rate. For a non-human, it would take 16 runs (384 kills) to move through {{reputation|honored}} to {{reputation|revered}} (12,000 reputation) and 28 runs (672 kills) to move through {{reputation|revered}} to {{reputation|exalted}} (21,000 reputation), 1056 kills total. Assuming 22.5 reputation per kill when farming Fertile Spores, it would take 533 kills to go from {{reputation|honored}} to {{reputation|revered}} and 933 kills to go from {{reputation|revered}} to {{reputation|exalted}}, 1467 kills total, and it requires a random drop.
 
 
Note that both of these give more reputation than killing [[Bog Lord]]s through {{reputation|friendly}} and {{reputation|honored}} will, so unless you want the bog lord drops/harvesting in particular (perhaps to gather tendrils and spore sacs to send to an alt, or for the {{Loot|Common|Unidentified Plant Parts}}, {{loot|Common|Mote of Life}}, and herbalism opportunities), you'll probably want to start on the naga quest as soon as you hit {{reputation|friendly}}. On the other hand, killing the Bog Lords can be a mindless task, and doesn't require returning the quest giver every 20 kills, so it can be faster unless you're going with a group.
 
 
Tips when farming: Usually the naga will call nearby Wrekt Slaves into battle. Kill the naga first since the Wrekt Slaves de-aggro when the naga dies, as long as they were not aggroed separately. At level 80 it is easy to avoid the Wrekt Slaves to pick and choose which naga to kill. Working with others greatly speeds up the turnaround time because there are no quest drops to share between group members.
 
 
=== Gaining Neutral Reputation ===
 
When you first encounter the denizens of Sporeggar, they will not talk to you because you are {{reputation|unfriendly}}. However, you can open up this faction by completing the quests given by [[Fahssn]] listed below. You should only have to complete 3 quests if you kill the mobs, 4 if you buy the mats.
 
 
=== Gaining Friendly Reputation ===
 
Gaining rep through {{reputation|friendly}} is fairly easy for a player leveling in Zangarmarsh. Grinding in the [[Spawning Glen]], players should collect [[Mature Spore Sac]]s and [[Bog Lord Tendril]]s. These items can be turned in to [[Fahssn]] on the eastern edge of the glen. Both these quests are repeatable until you reach {{reputation|friendly}} status, although the first quest if obtained before {{reputation|friendly}} will give rep after {{reputation|friendly}} but will not be repeatable. The mature spore sacs can be tracked with the Dwarven Treasure Finding racial ability, which allows for easy collection.
 
 
At {{reputation|neutral}} a quest is offered in Sporeggar to turn in [[Glowcap]]. Players might wish to skip this quest, Glowcaps are the Sporeling's currency and might be better used to purchase items from the faction's reputation-based vendor.
 
On the other hand, Glowcaps are [http://www.wowhead.com/?object=182053 abundant] in western Zangarmarsh, and can be harvested quickly depending on competition. This quest is only repeatable until {{reputation|friendly}}.
 
 
=== Jumping from Unfriendly to Halfway Honored without Grinding ===
 
*At level 62+ go to [[Fahssn]] and get both of the quests he offers. Pick '''''one''''' of the following quests to do multiple times. The other will be saved until later:
 
{{Questlong|Neutral|63|More Spore Sacs}}
 
 
'''OR'''
 
 
{{questlong|Neutral|64|More Tendrils!}}.
 
 
Do this single quest until {{reputation|neutral}} with [[Sporeggar]] and ''stop''.
 
Most likely this will be {{questlong|Neutral|64|More Tendrils!}} as it requires 6 [[Bog Lord Tendril]]s vs 10 spore sacs. The tendrils are generally cheaper and more frequently listed on the AH than the sacs.
 
*Travel to Sporeggar and get the following quests into your log but do not do them:
 
{{questlong|Neutral|61|The Sporelings' Plight}}
 
{{questlong|Neutral|64|Sporeggar}} (must be neutral)
 
*Get, and turn in, before you reach {{reputation|friendly}} (as once you hit {{reputation|friendly}}, you cannot turn it in for XP or gold):
 
{{questlong|Neutral|64|Glowcap Mushrooms}}
 
*Return to [[Fahssn]] and continue doing the repeatable quest you chose until you cannot anymore at {{reputation|friendly}}. (You will be at 500 {{reputation|Friendly}} if no kills from rep.)
 
*Kill any of the mobs that give rep ([[Bog Lord]]s etc) if you plan to reach exalted. If not, skip this step.
 
*Turn in the 4 quests above that you have not done yet for 750rep each bringing you to 3500 {{reputation|Friendly}}.
 
*Other questing in [[Zangarmarsh]] and [[Underbog]] will naturally push you into {{reputation|honored}}.
