The conflict between the Alliance and Horde is really heating up in 5.1. In the recent PTR patch, vendors were added in Krasarang Wilds that sell zone-specific PvP items, and we datamined a few more quest chains charting the story developments in this area.
(Edit: This article was updated 11/28 with finalized Commendation items and prices.)
To recap: there are new PvP hubs in Krasarang Wilds in 5.1 that have daily quests, charting the growing conflict between the Alliance and the Horde. Along with this, there are two new factions:
Operation: Shieldwall
and
Dominance Offensive
. Check out the
dailies for Operation: Shieldwall
, the
dailies for the Dominance Offensive
, and Wowhead's
visual preview
.
Krasarang Wilds PvP Rewards
As you quest in Krasarang's PvP areas, you'll loot commendations from enemy NPCs and players. These commendations are only acquired from looting--they are not quest rewards. Players can turn them into items that buff other players, increase their base's defenses, and even give players additional reputation quests.
Proveditor Grantley
and
Ongrom Black Tooth
sell these items.
These items are dropped by Horde NPCs and players. They can be turned into
Proveditor Grantley
for items that reinforce your base, buff players, or offer additional quests.

Legendary Quests

Faction Quests in Krasarang Wilds
After the Alliance has landed in Krasarang Wilds, you must find an agent in the Brawler's Guild who is posing undercover as a wealthy patron.
Meet the Scout
: Speak with Scout Lynna at Krasarang Cove in Krasarang Wilds. It has been two months since the Alliance have landed on Pandaria.
A King Among Men
: Accompany King Varian Wrynn to find Marshal Troteman, Hilda Hornswaggle, and slay 25 Horde.
Lion's Landing
: Use the Fireworks Launcher in Krasarang Cove to signal the Alliance fleet.
The Best Around
: Report to undercover agent Townsley in the Brawler's Guild in the Stormwind side of Deeprun Tram.
To Catch A Spy
: Deliver the Pink Marmot, the Mogu Melon Twist, and the Rusty Dagger to the correct patron.
Stirred, Not Shaken
: Find Professor Kilt in the V.I.P. lounge in the Brawlers Guild. An agent is posing undercover as a Brawler's Guild patron.
After you unmask Agent Connelly, he sends you to Kun-Lai to learn more about Garrosh's plan to harness the Sha.
He's In Deep
: Find Connelly in Kun-Lai Summit at Fire Camp Bataar.
Bugging Out
: Plant the Cleverly Disguised Bugs in the large tent, near the small tents, and in the supplies.
He Won't Even Miss It
: Create a distraction in the camp, steal the Weathered Journal, and read the Ancient Tablet in Garrosh's tent.
You are asked to negotiate with Jaina to remove the presence of blood elves from Dalaran, since they are loyal to the Horde and she is now in charge of the Kirin Tor.
The Kirin Tor
: Use the Portal to the Purple Parlor in Lion's Landing and meet with Anduin Wrynn.
The Fate of Dalaran
: Speak with Jaina Proudmoore and hear her story.
Brann Bronzebeard is conducting an excavation in Kun-Lai on the mogu, but things go bad when he collects sha energy and it corrupts soldiers.
To Mogujia
: Speak to Brann Bronzebeard at Mogujia in Kun-Lai Summit.
The Source of Korune Power
: Collect a Korune Codex from the Korune Spellweaver.
Bad Blood
: Kill 7 Silvermoon Runeseekers, Domination Mages, or Domination Knights.

There's an additional mission for Connelly:
The Kun-Lai Expedition
: Speak to Agent Connelly at One Keg in Kun-Lai Summit.
A Kor'kron In Our Midst
: Collect 1 Kor'kron Helmet, 1 Kor'kron Armor, and 1 Kor'kron Boots, then combine them into a Kor'kron Disguise. You are doing this to prevent Garrosh from finding the Divine Bell. (Based on the Horde chain, it appears it ended up in Darnassus and later made its way to Silvermoon.)
Memory Wine
: Use the Kor'kron Disguise to enter the camp. Then drink the Memory Brew and witness Shan Kien's past.
On the side, the Alliance has been befriending some of the Hozen, in the hopes of finding another artifact to counteract the Divine Bell:
The Harmonic Mallet
: Speak with Anduin Wrynn at the Tomb of Conquerers in Kun-Lai Summit.
The Monkey King
: Help Anduin Wrynn find the Monkey King in the Valley of Emperors.

The Second Riddle: Fellowship
: Obtain Metal Brew.
The Third Riddle: Strength
: Defeat the Challenger at the Tiger Temple.
The Greatest Prank
: Listen to the Monkey King's story.
The Horde questline seems more fragmented, but we can still tell that there's a lot going on as the Blood Elves, Thrall, and Vol'jin get involved in the conflict.
The Might of the Warchief
: Accompany Garrosh Hellscream to find Blood Guard Gro'tash, Grizzle Gearslip, and slay 25 Alliance.
Domination Point
: Light the Signal Fire on the beach of the Horde Landing Site to signal the fleet.
We don't have quest descriptions for this part, but we think they parallel the Alliance's experiences going to the Brawler's club. It then appears that your character is involved in the clash between the Sunreaver's allegiances to the Kirin Tor as well as the Horde:

Why does Blizzard insist that we have to do PvP do progress in PvE?
I don't like that aspect of the game, why should I be forced to do it to progress in the way I prefer to?
Switch around PvP and PvE and you'll have the same question PvPers have been asking for 7 years now.
its called if ur a pure pvper what are u doing on a normal server? u should be on a pvp server like a real pvper and suck it up and not be a baby while lvling
