I've always been very partial to the whole Defias series of quests. I like how they're your main enemy if you play Human all the way to around the 30s and Deadmines is a nostalgia overload.
There's also the Syndicate who are from Alterac and are framed as a band of cutthroats and fallen nobles who have resorted to being gang leaders now. Those who played WC2 know Alterac as the ones that end up betraying you midway through the Alliance campaign, it's nice to see the end result of what happened as a result of their treachery. Alterac's colors/banner were also orange, which the Syndicate thugs wear as bandanna colors as a cool little nod.
Edit: It also seemed like the Ravenholdt vs. Syndicate war was supposed to be a questline that never was expanded on and became forgotten over time. You can actually gain reputation with the Syndicate if you kill Ravenholdt members, maybe it was a Rogue exclusive thing where you'd choose your preferred guild or something. It always was a bit strange how you have this giant gap between 20 to 50 before you get another Rogue exclusive quest. If I had to guess the whole conflict was going to be a way to fill in that big blank and considering the Syndicate exist in areas that are 30s-early 40s it seems feasible.
