The achievement is now account-bound, so you can earn Exalted with the Oracles on one toon and Exalted with the Frenzyheary on a different toon and it will give you the achieve. Switching factions is no longer necessary unless you just want to do it on the same character.

This achievement is yet one more example of Blizzard's rather questionable moral standards.

Player: "Yeah, so... I just spent the last few weeks mercilessly slaughtering literally thousands of your kinsmen, but we're cool now, right?"

Jaloot: "Yeah we're good. You have shinies?"

ANSWER to everyone asking how to pick up quests after killing Artruis and changing factions, only to find that you can not pick up any quests afterward.

The issue : You're exalted with the Oracles, but you want to switch to Frenzyheart and start doing dailies and become exalted when them instead. You go kill Atruis, then you talk to the Zepik in the cave and your faction actually switches, so that you are now hated by the Oracles and Honored with Frenzyheart, however at this point you are stuck, because there are no quests.

Killing Pitch does nothing. Ignore everyone saying that. They aren't addressing the issue. You can't pick up the initial quest to kill Pitch, because you already did it two years ago. None of the Frenzyheart are offering quests and you can forget about a horn that summons Zepik. You don't know what to do. Well, I figured it out.

First of all, you are probably level 85. You killed Artruis too fast. If you kill Artruis too fast, Zepik and Zaloot never get released from the ice, so you can not kill one. You can talk to one after Artruis is dead and switch factions, but that's where it gets stuck. You have to actually kill one. You can only switch factions once per day.

Now, you have to wait until after the daily reset and go switch your faction back to Oracles, the right way.

Attack Artruis, but only use auto attack, no spells or special hits that will hurt her too quickly. Wear her down as slowly as you can. When Zepik and Zaloot are released from the ice blocks, attack Zepik, again, only with auto attack. One shotting him will despawn all of the mobs and you have to wait and start over. Once he is dead, finish off Artruis, continuing to hit only with auto attacks.

Now go talk to Zaloot. Your faction switches back to Honored with the Oracles and hated with the Frenzyheart.

Wait for the daily reset.

Go back and repeat this process, but kill Zaloot this time. Now talk to Zepik and your faction switches back to Honored with Frenzyheart and Hated with the Oracles.

Now, talk to Zepik again! He has another quest for you at this point, which will lead you to the Frenzyheart camp and open up the dailies.

This procedure has been fully tested and approved by yours truly. Please mark this up, so that it stands out, because I searched for hours for an answer to this dilema and never found one, so had to spend days figuring it out myself.
