There are a large amount of changes so I suggest reading over the official patch notes after this shortened version. All achievements award 10 points unless otherwise noted.

Reputation

Quote from: Bashiok (Source)

Changes to Ambassador Title in 4.1

• If you have the achievement you'll keep the title. The Exalted worked differently because we wanted to move the title to a different achievement altogether (50 exalted).
  In this case, if you have the achievement you'll keep the title. If you're close to getting the achievement, you might want to hurry and get it before 4.1 because after 4.1 you'd need to also gain the additional rep to meet the requirements, earn the achievement, and get the title.
  Same as it was for Loremaster or Explorer, if you had the achievement you still have the achievement, even though the requirements changed.

• Ambassador of the Horde requires you to be exalted with Bilgewater Cartel in addition to the previous home city reputations.
• Ambassador of the Alliance requires you to be exalted with Gilneas in addition to the previous home city reputations.
• 40 Exalted Reputations now rewards "The Exalted" title
• 50 Exalted Reputations now properly requires 50 reputations, no longer rewards "The Exalted"

Feat of Strength

• A new feat of strength with an associated title, "the Camel-Hoarder", has been added for players that have bested Dormus and obtained the Reins of the Grey Riding Camel -- because there must always be a Camel-Hoarder. Scourer of the Eternal Sands Obtain the reins of the Grey Riding Camel from Dormus the Camel-Hoarder.
• Agent of the Shen'dralar Earn exalted status with the Shen'dralar.

Achievement Bug Fixes

• The guild Rated Battleground title achievements should now properly be awarded.
• Valor and Conquest Points are displaying the correct values when tracked for achievements.

Guild Achievements

• The criteria on many of the profession-related guild achievements has been significantly reduced:
  • Dust, Dust and more Dust! now requires the guild to disenchant 25,000 Items, down from 100,000.
  • Dinner Party now requires the guild to place 1,500 Feasts, down from 5,000.
  • Skinnin' For A Livin' now requires the guild to skin 50,000 corpses, down from 250,000.
  • Gemcrafter Extraordinaire now requires the guild to cut 2,500 gems, down from 25,000.

  • Like Shooting Fish In A Barrel now requires the guild to catch 50,000 Fishes, down from 100,000.
    • (I've noticed Live, that a guild may have more than the required amount but not earn the achievement. You will need a guild to do the requirement one more time, e.g. You have 80,000/50,000 skinned (you will need to got skin a mob to get +1 more and trigger the achievement.))
