What is Reputation in Diablo 4 and how to increase it?

Blizzard’s Diablo 4 is set to release on June 6, 2023, and fans are excited about it. The game promises challenging World Tiers, exciting gameplay, and a Reputation system for the individual region. This regional Reputation or Renown is a key element to the game that will impact players’ progress, so they should consider increasing it. 

As they progress further in the Renown system, the game offers valuable rewards. The reward is tied to making their character powerful as this includes skill points, Potion charges, and even Paragon points. Players should know how to increase their Renown in Diablo 4 to map down a route to become stronger as quickly as possible. 

The following guide will give them an insight into how to increase their in-game renown. The quick rundown of each of the key elements of the Reputation system will help them conquer the Mortal Realm.

Guide to Reputation in Diablo 4 and ways to increase it 

The Reputation system in the new Diablo game marks a progression that can make your character even stronger. As a player, you can earn this Renown in all five major regions in the game which are: 

• Fractured Peaks
• Scosglen 
• Kehjistan 
• Hawezer
• Dry Steppes 

Now, each of the zones mentioned above has its individual Renown that you have to grind. Keep in mind that a fresh account starts with 0 points in every region and you will have to increase them through various task completion and exploration. The following list contains objectives in each region that grants the respective Reputation reward: 

• Discover new area: 2 points
• Unlock the regional Waypoints: 10 points
• Interact and activate the Altar of Lilith: 5 points
• Completion of Strongholds: 50 points
• Finishing Side Quests: 15 points
• Dungeon completions: 20 points

As you grind your way through some of these Renown points in Diablo, you should optimize your journey. Firstly, decide on routes that will allow you to collect as many points as possible. Secondly, complete all the Dungeons properly that are within the side quest to get the reward for both. Finally, events and cellars do not offer Renown points so you can skip them.

Renown rewards 

As you embark upon collecting Renown points in Diablo 4, you have to reach a certain threshold to unlock the rewards. Do keep in mind that there are account-wide bonuses and a character-specific reward for each of the stages. Here is a detailed list of the account-wide rewards that are available in the game. 

For the character-specific reward, each stage grants Bonus XP and 10,000 Gold depending on Character Level. 

A total of 800 points from each zone should give you all the Reputation bonuses. This reward system is a huge boost to the Diablo 4 experience as you can retain the points after switching characters. The new character can now begin with the total 15 Skill Points achieved during the previous run.
