In World of Warcraft , reputation levels usually go from Hated up to Exalted. The standard standing order is: Hated, Hostile, Unfriendly, Neutral, Friendly, Honored, Revered, and Exalted.

Reputation standings

  • Hated : The faction is fully hostile.
  • Hostile : Still attacked on sight.
  • Unfriendly : Very limited or no interaction.
  • Neutral : Baseline standing for many factions.
  • Friendly : First positive reputation tier.
  • Honored : Better access and some discounts.
  • Revered : High standing with stronger rewards.
  • Exalted : Highest reputation rank.

Practical note

The exact benefits vary by expansion and faction, but Exalted is generally the top reward tier, often unlocking mounts, gear, recipes, or other faction- specific perks.

Classic vs later WoW

In WoW Classic, these standings are the core reputation ladder players usually refer to. Later expansions also added systems like renown or paragon-style progress for some factions, but the classic reputation ranks still follow the same main structure.
