[Guide][H/A] Easiest 1000 Achievement Points
Foreword: This guide is written from a Horde player's perspective, so I apologize for any errors on the Alliance side! This guide assumes that you are a fresh 80 with access to daily quests/some amount of gold. Prices assume that you are exalted with that faction. Clicking on the link gives you either the seller or achievement link. :)

[30] 10 Exalted Reputations
By 80, you should have your 5 capital cities, Thrallmar/Honor Hold, and the Horde Expedition/Alliance Vanguard reputations all at exalted.
[10] The Ambassador
Exalted with your capital cities. By 80, you should have this. Leveling classic + through Thrallmar/Honor Hold + even into Borean Tundra/Howling Fjord all give reputation to your capital cities. If not, then you should go to the starting quest zones for the race you're missing.
[20] The Winds of the North
Gain exalted with the Horde Expedition, you should be exalted at 80, but if not, quest around in Borean Tundra -> Dragonblight.
[15] Tuskarrmageddon
Gain exalted with the walrus people that fish near the ice. Doing quests in Borean Tundra/Howling Fjord/their dailies will get you exalted.
[10] The Wyrmrest Accord
Quest in Coldarra (Borean Tundra) and in Wyrmrest Temple. After all the quests, I was revered. Took about 3 days of doing all the daily quests to get to exalted.
[10] The Kirin Tor
Quest in Amber Ledge (Borean Tundra), do the Kirin Tor questline in Dragonblight (NOT from Agmar's Hammer), do the Dalaran dailies. After doing these, I was barely revered. Took maybe 5 days of Dalaran cooking and fishing dailies to get exalted.
[10] The Argent Crusade
Do the Argent Tournament quests. After reaching Champion with all capital cities, I did the gold donation quest maybe 20 times if you want to speed this up, but the dailies should give you reputation.
[10] Knights of the Ebon Blade
Do quests and dailies in the Shadow Vault (Icecrown). I am a death knight so I had a head start.
[10] Northrend Vanguard
Get exalted with Kirin Tor, Argent Crusade, Knights of Ebon Blade, and Wyrmrest Accord
