Kommentar von Queggy

The name Taunka most likely comes from the Native American Lakota word tatanka which means Bison. Because the Taunka look like Bison.

Kommentar von whitedragon254

At the moment All taunka Npcs are using Tauren models, they are placeholders as blizzard has already shown the model thats going to be used for taunka. They might be editing the taunka model or changing it but right now its confirmed that the tauren models are only temporary.

Kommentar von brenthebli

I was guessing the Taunka would be horde, though i was not sure. I guess i was right.

Kommentar von Mumpley

Apparently the Alliance equivalent is The Frostborn,a race of Frost Dwarves living high in the mountains.

Kommentar von Lordsoze44

Taunka was discovered by Garrosh Hellscream when Horde arrive at Northrend first time

they also have small village and outpost at here

Taunka'le Village (Borean Tundra)
Camp Winterhoof (Howling Fjord)
Camp Oneqwah (Grizzly Hills)
Icemist Village (Dragonblight) :destroyed and already infected by undead Nerubians most of Taunka in Dragonblight move to Westwind Refugee Camp:
Westwind Refugee Camp (Dragonblight)
Camp Tunka'lo (Storm Peaks)

To be honest, I was disappointed that they use the same dialogue as the taurens. When you click on them, you'd hear the same thing as if you were clicking on a tauren, not taunka.

The female taunka also look just like female tauren.. They are female tauren. Not very creative.

Do you get anything for gaining reputation with this faction?

Kommentar von Zillions

After completing all quests for this faction, you will stand at 9705/12000 Honored.

Kommentar von 122711

Sucks that Horde can grind this faction rep pretty much right out of the gate, while Alliance can't even meet a Frostborn NPC until they get to Storm Peaks.

While there are not discreet rep rewards for these sub-factions, it all adds up towards the main Alliance/Horde faction rep.

Kommentar von Niex

I believe they re changing the requirments for the Achievement and only have to be exalted with the the Warsong Offensive

Kommentar von 250546

if this was ever made into a playable race i dont think people would be impressed, they are just taurens with fat heads and the same voice.

Kommentar von TheDayOfDoom

The achievement is now changed (as Niex mentioned that it would be): You will only need to get exalted with Horde Expedition to get the Winds of the North achievement.

Male taunka look like freakin monsters, they are horrible looking. Nothing like the fluffy tauren. :/ Almost screamed when I met them.

I was sitting at 9305/12000 for the longest time. Spent a lot of time flying around with Low Level Quest tracking up and never found anything.

I decided to go through the list and it turns out that I was missing a drop quest obtained from an item dropped by these guys:

Hope this helps anyone else who is stuck.

Kommentar von Brutatis

I think it may be an interesting idea if Blizzard had both the Taunka and Frostborne not as new races, but have them as options in the character creation screen, since they are now part of the Horde. Like most folks have said, its basically the same models just with different skins, or slight cosmetic tweaks. It would be VERY easy to integrate them, and have em running about in Thunderbluff.

Kommentar von Fugazi

I was on 8955/12000 and I was lacking The Damaged Journal quest chain from Grizzly Hills:
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12026

Now I am at 9705/12000 which seems to be maximum.

Kommentar von 218218

Annoying that they're horde only. I was looking forward to seeing some taunka only to find out I can't..... /sigh

Kommentar von Chilenaren

I am currently 9295 / 12000 and dont know what i have missed
enyone can give me a tip what i could have missed, somthing everyone might do?

Kommentar von jacob1818

Anyone else stuck at 9275 / 12000 ?

I am 430 short, so that would mean that I need to do a 250, 150 and three 10 rep quests.

I have looked almost everywhere and cannot find what I am missing. I put in a ticket just now to see what item drop quests I am missing.

Kommentar von dreadblood

when i first saw these guys i thought they were wearin masks... but then again i only had a quick look before they attacked me :D

Kommentar von Alterraia

It is now possible to gain exalted reputation with the Taunka faction. The only way to do it right now, is to faction change (preferably Human). Then your Taunka faction will change to Explorer's League according to the faction change info page on the wow website. Do the daily 137 times (122 as human), and you will reach exalted w/ Explorer's League. Faction change back to your original race and your rep will transfer back to Taunka, being the same level as it was for Explorer's league. Takes a bit over 4 months to complete, but it is possible, and pricey. So, be willing to say bye to your friends for a bit.

Kommentar von Xebas

Im at 11679/ 12000 and i still need some of the "rare" quests, and also the storm peaks q hub.

As of 3.3 doing a normal or heroic dungeon will grant you reputation with the Hand of Vengeance and The Taunka all the way up to Exalted. As far as I can tell there are no rewards other then a credit towards the "40 Exalted Factions" achievement.

Kommentar von 496143

As of patch 3.3, you are getting rep with all Horde Expedition faction by doing instances and heroic instances.

The factions which you can get reputation with are:
- Warsong Offensive
- The Taunka
- The Hand of Vengeance
- The Sunreaver (not sure, since I was exalted already)

On normal difficulty you'll get 2.5 rep per normal mob, 7.5 rep per 'bigger' mob and 75 rep per boss.
On heroic difficulity you'll get 7.5 rep per normal mob, 15 rep per 'bigger' mob and 125 rep per boss.

Good luck farming!

Kommentar von SIMSteven

In addition to instance rep, you can also gain spill-off reputation for both the Taunka and the Hand of Vengeance from daily quests. This includes the first four Champion daily quests from the Tournament (the three quest givers in the AC tent near Eadric the Pure) as well as all dailies that give Warsong Expedition rep.

I also have not tested the Valiant dailies as of yet (Sunreaver rep) as all of my characters that are in able to do tournament dailies are all Crusaders at this point.

Kommentar von Hanan

ok since patch 3.3 , when you do heroics without a faction tabard , not only you gain reputation with the Horde expedition , but you also gain half of that rep as spellover to all the sub-factions (not sure about the sunreavers tho.)

so since 3.3 went live , its possible to get exalted with both the Taunka and the hand of vengeance , simply by doing alot of heroics. proof

hitting exalted with them give nothing special so far , but it helps if you're trying to get The Exalted title.

also since you are already doing alot of heroics , do it using the new random heroic dungeon system for the perky pug <3

Kommentar von 512689

I received Exalted after turning in a daily quest at the Argent Tournament so it's possible to raise the needed faction there as well. Surprised me I heard the gong go off and had no idea why.

Kommentar von 488309

do they have any quartermaster? u know like The Kalu'ak have 1 and he sells good stuff, do taunka have 1 too? if so where?

Kommentar von 653998

Taunka... Tonka? Or am I pronouncing it wrong?

That's because Tonka come from a Native American word of about the same origin as the name of the taunka.

Kommentar von 648967

Never again will you say a tauren is hairy.

Kommentar von Magmarrax

It seems that nearly all Taunka NPCs are slightly bigger than any Tauren players.

Untrue.

As of today (after completing all questlines in Borean Tundra, Dragonblight, Howling Fjord, & being about 1/3 way thru Grizzly Hills), i am 15769 into revered, & i still have several Taunka-related quests to go in Grizzly Hills.

Kommentar von 816118

Heroic Halls of stone gives taunka rep W/O a tabard, is unbeleivably helpful for final leg of rep for this very PIA faction.

Kommentar von daerelas

Note you will get rep for all Horde Expedition factions doing any of their quests, at least all those I've encountered so far. For example, I just did a few quests in Venomspite which primarily give rep for Hand of Vengeance. I checked my rep screen (the 'u' key) after seeing +10 rep for HoV was rewarded, and noted that I had also received +3 for Sunreavers and +2 for Taunka even though neither faction was indicated in the floating blue text after quest hand-in. Yesterday I was doing Taunka quests in Grizzly Hills and noted the same thing in a different order (i.e., quests that give Taunka rep were also giving reduced rep for Sunreavers and HoV).

The moral of the story is, even though the quests tab on this page only shows 79 quests, know that those are only the quests that primarily give Taunka rep...you'll get rep for them from other quests as well, just not as much as the primary faction.

Kommentar von Aksannyi

What a nice surprise when I logged in today to do the few dailies that actually give Taunka and Hand of Vengeance rep and found a slight increase in the rep granted.

There were two in the Argent Tournament that used to grant a combined total of 125, which now grant a total of 162. **
There was the Blackwater Brawl daily in Grizzly Hills that used to grant 125, which now grants 163.

This leads to a total rep gain of 325, up from 250. While it's certainly not much, anything to get me done with these two factions quicker is greatly appreciated. I don't know if this has changed across the board for Northrend factions with these two dailies, as I'm exalted with all of the others, but it seems as though the reputation grind for Wrath has lessened slightly.

** Note that I skip a couple of these, I personally hate jousting so I avoid doing so at all costs. I can't confirm, but I'm willing to bet that the other two also grant a slight increase in the rep, consistent with the increase across the board.

Kommentar von Ghoulcraft

Guide is incorrect, where it says "The Silver Covenant" - It should say The Sunreavers, meaning that when you get exalted with the Sunreavers faction, you begin earning rep for the Horde Expedition.
