Reputation and factions
Every faction the Forever beta client lists for your reputation pane, with what the client says about it. The new ones are marked. The client does not say where reputation is earned, so this page does not either.

Official sourceGet to Know the Legacy System (opens in a new tab on Blizzard’s site)
Read from the game client of build 1.60.1.70425; “New” means Classic Era’s table of 1.15.9.70003 does not have it. “Opens at” is the standing the client gives a character who can earn it, with the usual limits: Neutral from 0, Friendly 3,000, Honored 9,000, Revered 21,000, Exalted 42,000. The city factions open to the races of each city, which the client lists race by race and this page does not repeat.

Exalted reputation for Legacy points
Four of the Legacy challenges ask for Exalted reputation, each worth one Legacy Point. The first three name the battleground factions above. The fourth names the horde or alliance faction of the Southseas Archipelago battleground; the client’s new battleground factions are the Darkspear Raiders and the Theramore Expeditionary Force, but the challenge text does not name them, so that link is not confirmed. Both factions belong to the new Battle for the Darkspear Islands. Blizzard’s Legacy announcement (opens in a new tab)
- Reach exalted reputation with the Frostwolf Clan or Stormpike Guard
- Reach exalted reputation with the Defilers or League of Arathor
- Reach exalted reputation with the Warsong Outriders or Silverwing Sentinels
- Reach exalted reputation with the horde or alliance faction at the Southseas Archipelago battleground
