Reputation

Reputation tracker

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.

All of your reputations are tracked in real time by the Karma tab found right below your SPECIAL on your in-game character sheet (press C to access it).

• 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
• Exhibit "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.

Caravans

Caravan reputation is awarded whenever you manage to complete a full caravan route in one go.

Similarly to New Reno reputation, caravan reputation doesn't modify your character; instead, it is used as currency. There is only one caravan reputation merchant in the game; he resides in The Hub.

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.
