As I understand rep isn't going away, but it will serve no benefit.
The items you can purchase now will still be available, but not in the current manner. They will be "purchased" through turning in mark of honor tokens from the battleground, as I understand it. And each piece will have a seperate "cost"
So while now, to get any of the epic pieces, you need to grind all the way to exalted. If all you want is the epic piece, the expansion will allow you to participate just enough to buy just that one piece, skipping all the other pieces.
It is a system that allows a bit more flexibility, but does end up screwing some people.
