Emissary system

This article is about the world quest rewards. For the Warcraft III unit, see Emissary (Warcraft III). For the occupation, see ambassador. For Paragon quests, see Paragon reputation.

Two available emissaries in Battle for Azeroth.

Emissaries provide additional rewards and a reputation boost for a faction. Players will have three emissary slots and each emissary quest will last for 3 days. Players will need to complete four world quests that correspond to the emissary (3 for Tortollan Seekers or Kirin Tor) to complete the emissary and be able to turn it in to the faction's Quartermaster, labeled as an Emissary. One new emissary quest will be available every day.

Shadowlands factions uses a feature called Callings.
