WoW Forever Cenarion Circle Reputation Guide
The Cenarion Circle is the druid order at Cenarion Hold in Silithus, and in WoW Forever its reputation is a level 60 grind. Quests carry you to about Friendly, and after that the reputation comes from one hand-in: ten Encrypted Twilight Texts for 100 points at Bor Wildmane, as often as you like and all the way to Exalted. The texts are a quest item, so you cannot buy them: you farm them from the Twilight's Hammer cultists in the camps around Silithus.
Below you will find where the texts drop and how often, a map of the cultist camps, how many texts each rank takes, the Abyssal hand-ins for groups, the one-time quests and what the vendors of Cenarion Hold sell at each rank, including the new Forever patterns for tailors and blacksmiths.
Cenarion Circle at a Glance
| Detail | Cenarion Circle |
|---|---|
| Side | Alliance and Horde. Everyone starts at Neutral; Night Elf, Tauren and Skyborne Druids start 2,000 points into Neutral |
| Hub | Cenarion Hold in Silithus, Bor Wildmane at 48.6, 37.4 |
| Main grind | 10 Encrypted Twilight Texts for 100 reputation, repeatable, no rank limit |
| Where the texts drop | Twilight's Hammer cultists in Silithus: Twilight Prophet about 88% of kills, Twilight Stonecaller and Twilight Marauder about one kill in three |
| Kills | Cultists give 1 point each until Honored; Abyssal Templars 5, Dukes 25, Lords 50 |
| Texts to Exalted | About 3,650 after the one-time quests, 4,200 without them |

The scale is the usual one: 3,000 points from Neutral to Friendly, 6,000 more to Honored, 12,000 to Revered and 21,000 to Exalted, 42,000 in total.
Where to Farm Encrypted Twilight Texts
Every Twilight's Hammer cultist in Silithus can drop a text, but the rates differ a lot. These are Wowhead's loot statistics, collected before Forever; the Forever data lists the same enemies and the same drop.
| Enemy | Level | Drops a text | Where in Silithus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twilight Prophet | 60, elite | about 88% of kills | The cultist camps in the northwest (around 18, 31) and the southwest (around 17, 82), and the central camp (around 39, 44) |
| Twilight Stonecaller | 59 to 60 | about 34% | The same three camps: 18, 84, 26, 33 and 38, 44 |
| Twilight Marauder | 58 to 59 | about 33% | Patrols in the south (around 39, 77), the southeast (51, 68) and the east (68, 35) |
| Twilight Lord Everun | 60, rare | about 23% | Spawns in the cultist camps |
| Twilight Overlord and Twilight Flamereaver | 60 to 61 | too few kills recorded | The northeast camp, around 65 to 72, 13 to 19 |
Bor Wildmane in Cenarion Hold (1) and the cultist camps: northwest (2), centre (3), southwest (4), northeast (5) and the Marauder patrols (6)
The Prophets are the best target: they are elite, but almost every kill gives a text, and players in Classic counted several texts from some of them. They come back after 25 to 30 minutes, so a group that circles the three camps keeps finding new ones. Solo, the Stonecallers are easier: about three kills per text, and they stand in packs inside the same camps. A good loop takes 80 to 100 texts an hour in a group, which is 800 to 1,000 reputation.
How Many Texts Each Rank Takes
Every hand-in of Encrypted Twilight Texts is 10 texts for 100 points, at every rank. The kills themselves add 1 point per cultist until Honored, so before Honored the farm gives a little more than the table shows.
| Rank | Reputation | Hand-ins | Texts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral to Friendly | 3,000 | 30 | 300 |
| Friendly to Honored | 6,000 | 60 | 600 |
| Honored to Revered | 12,000 | 120 | 1,200 |
| Revered to Exalted | 21,000 | 210 | 2,100 |
| Total | 42,000 | 420 | 4,200 |
The one-time quests of Silithus give about 5,500 reputation together, enough for Friendly and part of Honored, so do them first and start the texts at Friendly. A tip from Classic still holds: before Honored, every kill gives a point, so farm in the camps until Honored and keep the texts in your bags. They have no rank limit, so they count fully later. A stack holds 250.
Abyssal Hand-ins for Groups
The second repeatable source is the Abyssal Council. A full set of Twilight Trappings, three pieces of cultist gear that drop in the same camps, lets you summon an Abyssal Templar at one of the small Wind Stones in Silithus. With a medallion you summon a Duke at a larger stone, and with a ring a Lord. The bosses give reputation when they die and drop the items that Bor Wildmane takes.
| Enemy | Reputation per kill | Drops | Hand-in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Abyssal Templar | 5 | Abyssal Crest | 3 Crests for 50 |
| Abyssal Duke | 25 | Abyssal Signet | 3 Signets for 100 |
| Abyssal Lord | 50 | Abyssal Scepter | 3 Scepters for 150 |
The first Crest, Signet and Scepter you bring start one-time quests worth 100, 150 and 200. Templars are soloable at 60, Dukes and Lords need a group. Per hour it is slower than the texts for one player, but a group that farms the camps anyway gets the Trappings for free.
Cenarion Circle Quests
Most of the reputation before the grind comes from the quests of Cenarion Hold and the Silithus camps, level 54 to 60. Together they give about 5,500 points. The ones worth the most:
- Into The Maw of Madness and The Calling, 200 each, and Vyral the Vile, 150.
- WANTED: Deathclasp, Terror of the Sands, 100, and Securing the Supply Lines and Deadly Desert Venom, 75 each.
- Secret Communication, the first 10 texts for Bor Wildmane, which opens the repeatable hand-in.
- Scouring the Desert for the Alliance and Scouring the Desert for the Horde: 100 for each Silithyst you bring to your faction's camp, repeatable.
- Ve'han's Fall, a new Forever quest on Mount Hyjal at level 54: 150 Cenarion Circle and 150 Guardians of Hyjal.
- Druids also earn it from their class quests in Moonglade, 10 to 100 each.
Cenarion Circle Rewards by Rank
Three vendors of Cenarion Hold sell the faction recipes: Mishta for tailors, Vargus for blacksmiths and Kania for enchanters. The twelve marked new are Forever recipes for level 58 gear with Nature Resistance, which makes them useful for the raids that open in December.
The new Forever patterns cost about 7 gold 90 silver each. Twelve more new Forever patterns for leatherworkers, the Bileblister, Hivethrasher, Scalegut and Broodwatcher pieces, need Friendly or Honored too, but the Forever data does not show who sells them yet. Every new recipe is in our new recipes guide, and our blacksmithing and tailoring guides show how to reach the skill they need.
Tips for the Cenarion Circle Grind
- Do the Silithus quests first. They give about 5,500 reputation and experience, and the kill quests send you into the same camps where the texts drop.
- Keep the texts until Honored. Each kill gives a point until Honored, the texts have no limit, so hand them in later and lose nothing.
- Farm the Prophets with a group, the Stonecallers alone. A Prophet is elite but gives a text almost every kill; a Stonecaller needs about three kills.
- Do not give the texts to Hermit Ortell. He takes them for no reputation.
- Pick up the Twilight Trappings. Three pieces let you summon an Abyssal Templar, worth 5 reputation and a Crest for the hand-in.
- Stop at the rank of the recipe you need. The new Forever patterns need Friendly or Honored, about 900 texts at most after the quests.
