As you venture through the Waking Shore, you may notice that you have earned reputation for the faction, with every 2,500 reputation also earning you one renown.

This renown level provides players with faction-exclusive rewards that makes grinding reputation well worth it. This how you can earn renown for the Dragonscale Expedition, rewards, and more.

How to earn renown for the Dragonscale Expedition in WoW Dragonflight
