Buying someone else a mount

[Mirajj]

Um, you don't gain rep simply by being in the group.  You have to tap the mob in some way, either by dealing damage to the mob or healing someone who has done damage to the mob.  I'm afraid that your potions were wasted.  The good news is that you can do this out of party.  So you can bribe your farmer friends again but this time stay out of party and make sure to in some way damage each of the mobs that the farmers kill or heal the farmers as they fight.

It's slightly different in this case, Mongo. Wintersaber Trainer rep is only acquired through the quests. You can't get it just from killing mobs. The last two quests he gives you are "Kill x of y" sort of quests. So what this guy would do (I assume) is stay far enough away he'd get the credit for the mob being killed, while not close enough for anything else. That's actually pretty easy to do, as you get kill credit while standing somewhat close to the questgiver. So he basically cut himself out of the run back and forth.

I think that Blizzard has changed that, so that you now have to be present at the area (the Village or the Gorge) for some of the kills now. I know that with the giants, if I had someone else killing them for me, I'd get 4 Preservers, and 1 Giant. Then no matter how many Giants my friends killed, I had to truck my tail down there and help kill the last three needed.
