    There is still JP and VP to farm. You can get it through dungeons, as usual, and also through the many, many, many daily quests available in MoP. Valor buys you gear, Justice lets you upgrade it. You also have faction-based gear rewards most of which will require you to do dailies. Most of them are simply time consuming, but we do have a thread on speeding up The Tillers. You also get a boost to the rate at which you gain Valor Points by 50% when 1 toon on the account reaches their cap, so you could turn around and farm faster on alts

    One thing to note, you don't *need* Exalted this time around. Most Exalted rewards are pets or toys, honored or revered should be good to get most vendor-bought faction rewards, tough it should be noted that the gear wasn't even really worth the effort when MoP was new. Now you are better off farming Timeless Isle when you get a chance and filling your team up with ilvl 496 Epics. They come from chests and mobs and are bind to account. Here's a thread.

    PS - If you're going for max rep or like to farm rep, make note that we now have Grand Commendations. These are available at Revered for most MoP factions and provide a permanent boost in rep gains for that faction on ANY character on the account. Many people keep this in mind while doing quests and dailies, skipping the hard or tedious stuff {if not everything} on their slaves so they can get the master to Revered for the commendation. At that point, the entire team, including the master {and any subsequent alts} will get double the rep for all that faction's quests. Make sure to use it as SOON as you hit revered. You should only need 1 assuming your entire team is on the same BattleNet.


    i'm quite an achivement guy... makes me feel happy when i hear the 'dang' 5x and get a new achivement.. is that still pretty much the same? i noticed there's some new stuff, like challenges, pet battle? is that cool?
    Achievements are shared across the account now. As are mounts and pets. There's some exceptions, I'm sure but nothing I can think of offhand. So if you got a bunch of achievements on your main but not your slaves {like the X# of Mounts or Factions @ Exalted} your slaves should all have the same achievements {again, assuming the same BattleNet}. This means that when you do something like the Anglers or OotCS where the "top" reward is a mount or pet, you only need to get it on your main - it'll "share" over to the slaves. In some cases, you will still need to do the dailies to get the faction to USE these items, so your alts and slaves won't be able to fly around on cloud serpents without Cloud Serpent Riding. But it does mean that you can have everyone take a different color mount as a reward from Riding the Skies and vendor the other two {or just pick one and vendor all the extras if you're cash-strapped} so everyone has all available colors.

    You can also box up and auction pets in many cases. You might want to go through your pet tab and clear out all the duplicates you might now have if you were a pet collector before. Or you can do Pet Battles and level them up before selling them. Pet battles were kinda fun - a good way to waste some time if you're into that kinda thing. Not something you're likely to multibox, but you never know.

    Challenge modes weren't something I tried, but Kruschpakx4 has been running them lately.

    There's also Scenarios now, which are 3-person dungeons designed to be quick run for non-standard groups. These are good ways to bump up your gear as you enter dungeons. You will probably want to do The Arena of Annihilation ASAP for the weapon rewards - weapons were severely lacking when I played.
