Twenty-Five Tabards (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1021) is one of the cooler achievements to do -- not only does it reward a pretty neat-looking tabard (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=40643#.) in the end, but having the reputations necessary to pull it off (unless you're cheesing it with a lot of TCG tabards) is going to help you a lot while going for The Exalted (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1015).
The first thing I'd like to point out is that you don't need to do what I did while getting pictures for this article and run around like a headless chicken collecting tabards from all corners of the world. The easiest way to re-collect any tabards you've previously owned is by visiting Elizabeth Ross (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=28776) in Dalaran or a tabard vendor in any major city. I do need to mention that they sell tabards for the currency each faction uses (e.g. you still have to pay 10 Glowcaps (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24245) to purchase a Sporeggar tabard (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=31775) from them) so if you don't have the currency on you at the time, you'll still be making a field trip to collect it.
For this guide I'm assuming that you do not necessarily have access to now-unobtainable tabards like Competitor's Tabard (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=36941) or Tabard of the Protector (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28788#.), so if you do have pieces like this sitting around your bank, you're just that much closer to the achievement. As mentioned previously, you can fudge Twenty-Five Tabards by getting TCG tabards like Tabard of Nature (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=38309) or Tabard of Frost (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=23709), but I'm also assuming you don't have access to any of these. This achievement is very much doable with a little hard work and a pinch of luck, so let's get rolling.Continue reading The OverAchiever: Twenty-five tabards (http://www.wow.com/2009/11/13/the-overachiever-twenty-five-tabards/)
