Reputations — Wiki · WoW Burning Crusade
Every faction you can earn standing with: where you start, the fastest way to raise it at each standing, and what each standing unlocks.
How reputation works(show)
- Hated36,000to next
- Hostile3,000to next
- Unfriendly3,000to next
- Neutral3,000to next

- Honored12,000to next
- Revered21,000to next
- Exalted1,000to max
- From Neutral to Exalted takes 42,000 reputation; most of it is Honored and Revered.
- Many kills only count up to a standing (often the end of Honored or Revered); the faction pages show each cap. Turn-ins and quests usually keep counting to Exalted.
- Some factions share gains: the capital cities pass part of every gain to the others on the same side, and the Steamwheedle Cartel towns to each other. Rival factions lose standing when you gain with the other side.
- Human: 10% more reputation from everything (racial: Diplomacy).
- Quests give 20% less reputation for each level you are more than five levels above them, down to a fifth of the full amount, and grey creatures give less as well. Do quests while they are still yellow or green.
