The Sha'tar are a faction of naaru headquartered in Shattrath City, led by A'dal, and you earn their reputation mostly through Tempest Keep's three 5-man dungeons — The Mechanar, The Botanica, and The Arcatraz — plus the quests tied to them. Trash and bosses in those instances grant Sha'tar rep, and completing them on Heroic (once you're keyed) is the quickest push toward Exalted.
Quick Facts

How to Farm Sha'tar Reputation Step by Step
- Level to the 65–70 range so Tempest Keep dungeons are accessible.
- Run The Mechanar, The Botanica, and The Arcatraz on Normal, clearing trash and bosses for steady rep.
- Pick up and complete every dungeon quest tied to these instances — the turn-ins give large rep chunks.
- Around Revered, buy the Warpforged Key from the Sha'tar quartermaster and switch to Heroic runs for faster gains and better loot.
- Grind Heroic Tempest Keep until Exalted, then spend your standing at the quartermaster.
How do you gain Sha'tar reputation fast?
Spam the three Tempest Keep 5-mans and hand in their quests. Normal mode carries you to roughly Revered; after that, the Warpforged Key lets you farm the same dungeons on Heroic, where kills give more rep per pull. A well-geared group clearing Heroics back-to-back is the single fastest route to Exalted.
Where is the Sha'tar quartermaster?
The quartermaster stands in the Terrace of Light inside Shattrath City, near A'dal. Because the Sha'tar are neutral, both factions shop here freely — no Aldor or Scryer choice affects your access. Bring your standing here to grab the shield, mace, and recipes once you're revered or exalted.
What do you actually need Sha'tar rep for?
The big one is the Warpforged Key at Revered, which unlocks Heroic Tempest Keep. Beyond that, Exalted opens solid pre-raid caster and healing pieces plus a few crafting recipes. It's a clean, self-contained rep — everything you need is inside the same dungeons you're already running for gear and keys.
