WoW Shadowlands: Legendary recipes at the faction trader - reputation needed

Legendarys are among the strongest and best items you can put on your character in WoW. In the upcoming expansion Shadowlands, they will once again play a major role. But instead of capturing them from somewhere, as was the case in Legion, we'll be making the legendary items ourselves with the help of a special blacksmith. To do this, however, we need the right template first. We can get these recipes for Legendary items in various ways, for example, through PvP. Each recipe has a source and we know exactly what we need to do for it. Another source for Legendary templates has now appeared with the faction traders on the beta server.

In Shadowlands, there are four main factions that come from the four areas. These are only indirectly related to the pact there. So you can collect reputation from all four factions, no matter which pact you joined. And if you have your eye on a special Legendary, you might not be able to avoid it. Each of the four merchants has a Legendary recipe that you might want to have.

• Ardenwald - The Wild Hunt
  • A Memory of Echo of Eonar - Summons a spirit Familiar to your side. Your spells and attacks have a chance to send the Familiar at a teammate and increase its damage and healing for 20 seconds. If no teammates are nearby, the Familiar will fly at an enemy and increase their damage taken.
• Bastion - Avowed
  • A Memory of Judgement of the Arbiter - Causing damage has a high chance of releasing a surge of spiritual energy that deals Holy damage. If another player nearby is carrying this item, then an arc of energy will form between you, damaging all enemies that are hit.
• Maldraxxus - Undying Army
  • A Memory of Maw Rattle - Killing an enemy has a high chance of summoning an explosive maw rat. After six seconds, the rat explodes, dealing damage to all surrounding enemies and reducing their damage dealt by five percent for ten seconds.
• Revendreth - Court of Harvesters
  • A Memory of Norgannon's Sagacity - Using a spell grants you a stack of Sagacity. When you move, you can cast spells from movement for 0.5 seconds per stack of Sagacity.

So if you want one of these Legendarys, you'll have to farm reputation from the faction in question. However, Blizzard seems to be serious about cutting back on farming and grinding. Because instead of reverent or respectful as in the past, benevolent is currently already enough in Shadowlands to be able to buy the recipe. And we'll probably get a good chunk of the necessary reputation already during the leveling phase. We'll have to play through this one completely anyway, since we won't get access to the endgame without completing the campaign.
