Many of you should have noticed a recent imbalance in the cost of reputation-yielding items for Aldor over those for the Scryers faction. This is due to the Shattered Sun Pendant of Might which is available to anyone who is Exalted with the Shattered Sun Offensive.
You see, if you are a member of the Aldor faction, the neck piece has a chance to proc, granting the wearer an additional 200 Attack Power, which when scaled with talents and abilities can produce allot more damage than the 333-367 Arcane damage granted to those of the Scryers faction.
When this was discovered by a Hunter friend of mine, he immediately began to grind out Venom Sacks, Marks of Sargeras and Fel Armaments and he is the first person I know that went from being exalted with Scryers to being exalted with the Aldor. That's not to say it hasn't been done before, he's just the first person that I know who has done it. The idea of him being out in Terokkar Forest in full epic gear just running around slaughtering every spider he saw had us all laughing for a good while, but we stopped and marvelled when he achieved his goal.
Anyway, what I am getting at is that farming Marks of Kil'Jaeden, Marks of Sargeras and Fel Armaments can make you an excellent amount of money in the Auction House, and it's easy farming. So from the inhabitants of Kil'sorrow in Nagrand to the Eclipsions of Shadowmoon Valley, grab your weapons and get to farming and you will find it to be quite lucrative.

Aldor Envy - It's not the size that matters, its the necklace.

Great tip, these have been flying off my shelves lately. Also, Fel Armaments, not Tomes. Sorry.
You are absolutely correct, Rocknoats. I have made the correcting. My hunter is a Scryer so I have had Arcane Tomes on the brain. :-)
Yep, Aldor Rep items are selling at a 3:1 to 5:1 ratio to Scryer on my server.
And the Scryer rep items are even more plentiful, since they drop from some of the the SSO daily mobs. There are often people in trade, looking to make an easy profit trading Scryer for Aldor with the uninformed.
You see, Bobo? I am doing my part to keep the uninformed informed. LOL
Great time to be a scryer if you dont care about that 200AP neck.
I was so upset when I chose Scryer for my Druid and it turned out to be the bad faction.
Blizzard made a comment once that it would make sure every faction choice was balanced. But I bet we all knew when we saw Tauren vs. Night Elf bonuses that they were never going to be balanaced. Scryer and Aldor are just the next step in a saga.
My main is and has always been an Aldor, so to see the other side of life I made my alt a Scryer. I actually prefer the shoulder inscriptions for Aldor, and like I said, most people want the Aldor edition of the SSO necklace. I like that the Scryer's terrace has multiple places to repair. LOL
