In
Azeroth, players
will encounter many
different factions
throughout the
world. By completing
certain quests or
killing certain
creatures, players
are able to gain
favor with some of
these factions.
Gaining reputation
with certain
factions allows
players to purchase
items or undertake
quests that are
unavailable to other
players.
Players can check
their reputation
with other factions
by pressing "U" on
the keyboard.
Listed below are the
different reputation

special heroes

reputation level for
factions not on a
players team that
are not KOS
- Cannot buy, sell,

- Kill on Sight
- Kill on Sight; all
opposing team
factions are set

Affecting one
faction can
potentially ripple
through and affect
others that are
connected. For
example, killing a
goblin in Gadgetzan
will anger the
goblins of Ratchet
and Booty Bay.

The Horde and
Alliance are each
considered a team,
and the four races
comprising each team
are considered
factions. The four
starting racial
factions for each
team are displayed
under the
appropriate team's
header.
The factions of the
opposing team are
always at the lowest
reputation level of
Hated, and are
always locked in the
"At War" state.
Players have a bonus
to their starting
reputation with
their own race's
faction.

lower-than-normal
starting reputation

You cannot declare
war on any of your
own team's factions.
