Reputation

Reputation is a numerical representation of various Wasteland factions' opinion of you.

It plays an important role in FOnline 3: not only does it affect your pool of random encounters, and NPCs' willingness to deal with you, but it can also have a direct effect on your character's stats.

• Taking part in GM events

Lore factions

There are five lore factions that you can gain/lose reputation with:

• Enclave
• Brotherhood of Steel (BoS)
• New California Republic (NCR)
• Vault City (VC)
• The Master's Army (TMA)

Your reputation with a lore faction will increase when you:

• Win a War Event while fighting for that faction
• Donate currency to that faction
• Complete faction contracts (only available to faction members)

Your reputation with a lore faction will decrease when you:

• Lose a War Event while fighting for that faction
• Kill players from that faction outside active control areas (TC, BC, ZC, events)
• Open that faction's cases while not in the faction
• "Bad behavior" (faction members only)
• Join any other lore faction

• If you're a faction member, your reputation with the faction you're in will affect your faction-related rewards
• High reputation with a faction will decrease your odds of randomly encountering that faction's patrols
• Negative reputation with a faction will increase the initial gear XP amount of other factions' armor that you craft by 10%

New Reno crime families

New Reno has four crime families, each with its own reputation:

• The Mordinos
• The Bishops
• The Wrights
• The Salvatores

You gain reputation with a crime family when:

• You fight for it in New Reno Wars (winning awards reputation equal to three times the number of participants; losing awards reputation equal to the number of participants)

You lose reputation with a crime family when:

• You leave New Reno Wars (in fact, this decreases your reputation with all four families by 7)
• You trade your reputation to buy family weapons, armor, or blessings

Four family blessings are currently available (you can only have one of them active):

• Bishop's blessing grants +100% XP gained for 24 hours
• Mordino's blessing grants +3 action points for 24 hours
• Wright's blessing grants +35 hit points for 24 hours
• Salvatore's blessing grants +3 to all damage thresholds for 24 hours

New Reno reputation (alongside currency) can also be spent to participate in a very rare Shark Club slot machine GM event.

Reputation titles

"They literally don't need it any more!"

Reputation titles, sometimes also called "karma perks" despite their mostly negative effect on your gameplay, are a direct result of some of your particularly questionable in-game choices.

There are currently three of them: Childkiller, Grave Digger, and Slaver.

• Childkiller means you've killed at least one underage NPC. The title will make you unable to talk to kids, blocking your access to the Light Step support perk.
• Grave Digger means you've desecrated at least one grave. The title doesn't seem to affect your character in any noticeable way.
• Slaver means you've joined Metzger's merry band of slavers and have a facial tattoo to prove it. It lets you catch slaves but may prevent some NPCs from interacting with you.

Notes

• Depending on your build, having some of the reputations in the negative may actually be a good thing.
• To check your reputation, open your character sheet ("C" by default) and click on the Karma tab.
• Contracts are a good way to increase/decrease your Wastelander/Raider reputations.
• To reset your Wastelander/Raider reputations, ~reroll your character.
• Resetting your negative lore faction reputation requires joining the faction, which may not always be possible.
• New Reno reputation cannot be reset; if you're in the red, you'll have to work it off.
