Which Reputations to Target For Each Specialization in Cataclysm Classic

wowhead.com:

Cataclysm Classic brings with it tabards for nearly every Faction on launch, allowing players to earn Reputation with a chosen Faction in every Level 85 Dungeon they complete. With a choice in leveling zones and the tabards that come with them, players can target certain Reputations based on the rewards they want to receive before Raids release.

Reputations by Leveling Zone

Each leveling zone in Cataclysm Classic has a primary Faction from which players will earn Reputation, with the exception being The Earthen Ring, which players can earn Reputation from in multiple zones. Depending on which Reputation reward you want to prioritize, you can choose to level in that zone, but keep in mind that you can also buy a tabard upon reaching Friendly and farm reputation via Level 85 Dungeons instead.

• Vashj'ir — The Earthen Ring
• Mount Hyjal — Guardians of Hyjal
• Deepholm — Therazane and The Earthen Ring
• Uldum — Ramkahen
• Twilight Highlands — Wildhammer Clan / Dragonmaw Clan and The Earthen Ring

Baradin's Wardens & Hellscream's Reach

The Baradin's Wardens and Hellscream's Reach should be a priority for nearly every player, not only due to them being a part of the «endgame cycle», but also because their rewards include a trinket for every specialization at Exalted, as well as Heroic dungeon level weapons at Revered.

They also follow a different system than many of the other reputations in Cataclysm Classic, with little «choice» in how to focus on gaining reputation with them. They are not present in any leveling zones, nor do they have a Tabard to gain reputation in dungeons.

• Impatience of Youth — used by Strength DPS
• Mandala of Stirring Patterns — used by Healers
• Mirror of Broken Images — used by Tanks
• Stump of Time — used by Intellect DPS
• Unsolvable Riddle — used by Agility DPS
