Factions Reference

Factions shape reputation paths and vendor access, so use this page to compare the major groups before turning in reputation items.

Factions give Windrose its sense of people, politics, and trade routes. This page helps you keep the major groups straight before you hand in reputation items, chase vendor access, or follow a questline tied to a specific faction.

Use the cards as a quick reminder of who each group is and why they matter. It is especially helpful when you return after a break and need to remember which faction connects to the rewards, vendors, or tasks you care about.
