One of the key unlockable features of the Valdrakken Accord reputation is theability to participate in The Siege on Dragonbane Keep, in which youassist a group of drakonid known as the Obsidian Outcasts in reclaiming anarea of The Waking Shores that has become overrun with Djaradin in exchangefor rewards.

The Siege on Dragonbane Keep occurs every 2 hours and will be marked on your minimapbeforehand once you have completed the initial To Dragonbane Keep! quest.During this scenario, you will fight through waves of dangerous Djaradin beforefinally confronting a powerful boss, earning a reputation with the Valdrakken Accordduring each stage. Upon completing this scenario for the first time each week,you will receive an Epic Dragonbane Keep Strongbox,containing item level 376 gear, Dragon Isles Supplies, additional artifactsor reputation tokens, and Gold. Any completions of this scenario beyondyour first for the week will instead reward Dragonbane Keep Strongbox,containing fewer rewards and no weapons or armor.

The Valdrakken Accord is unique among the main four Reputationsof Dragonflight in that it also contains four distinct "sub-reputations."While each of these factions do not have their set of Renown levels,they do feature a more traditional form of reputation grind through specificend-game activities. As a bonus, earning reputation with any of these factionswill often also provide some amount of reputation with the Valdrakken Accord!

We briefly go over these four sub-reputations and their progression below.

The Artisan's Consortium is a sub-reputation of the ValdrakkenAccord that specializes in Professions and all that they have to offeran artisan. While it is a faction that is quick to gain progression throughmany artisan and profession-related quests offered by trainers around the world,there are nonetheless some valuable recipes that may be worth seeking out, dependingon your trade.

The five reputation ranks with the Artisan's Consortium are:

• Neutral (0 total reputation)
• Preferred (500 total reputation)
• Respected (2,500 total reputation)
• Valued (5,500 total reputation)
• Esteemed (12,500 total reputation)

Beyond offering useful recipes such as missives that Scribescan use to let crafters choose the secondary stats present on crafted gear,players that are interested in becoming master artisans will want to reach thereputation level of valued to be able to purchase Pentagold Seals.These bind-on-pickup materials are sometimes used to create weapons and armor of thehighest quality!

The Cobalt Assembly is a small section in the northern Azure Spanwhere members of the blue dragonflight are protecting a cluster of magicalartifacts from The Sundered Flame, a rebellious group of drakonids and dracthyr.It is an area filled with almost exclusively elite-level enemies, where yourgoal is to defeat them to loot items that may then be turned in for reputation.There are five levels of reputation with the Cobalt Assembly for you to progressthrough in this way:

• Empty (0 total reputation)
• Low (300 total reputation)
• Medium (1,200 total reputation)
• High (3,600 total reputation)
• Maximum (10,000 total reputation)

While it may seem daunting to have to exclusively defeat elites in orderto gain reputation, many enemies will occasionally drop orbs of Wild Arcana,which act similarly to the Anima Powers once located within Torghastfrom Shadowlands. In addition, similar to the Box of Many Things,you can also unlock a variety of "talents" that are active in the area.With the help of these powers, you can greatly reduce the danger of fighting here.

As for why a player would want to participate in this reputation, there aremany cosmetic rewards available, including blue dragonflight themed drakonid armorand weapons, along with 8 Dragonriding cosmetics. Alchemists,Scribes, Leatherworkers, andTalors will also have additional recipes to unlock,including the best in slot leg enchantments: Pattern: Frozen Spellthreadand Pattern: Frosted Armor Kit!

Though considered separate factions, reputation with Sabellian andWrathion is gained in the exact same way as each wish to become themain representative of the black dragonflight at the Obsidian Throne inThe Waking Shores. Each week, you will be given the opportunity topledge your allegiance to one or the other, unlocking a variety of daily questsrewarding reputation with your chosen ally. There is no penalty if you choose tosupport one dragon over another, as the only real difference between the two inrewards offered at each quartermaster is a choice of toy. In total, there 6reputation ranks to gain for each dragon:

• Acquaintance (0 total reputation)
• Cohort (8,400 total reputation)
• Ally (16,800 total reputation)
• Fang (25,200 total reputation)
• Friend (33,600 total reputation)
• True Friend (42,000 total reputation)

Regardless of which dragon you choose to support for a week, your time atthe Obsidian Citadel will revolve around collecting Key Fragmentsand Key Framings to create Restored Obsidian Keys. Turning thesekeys in will grant you reputation with the black dragon factions and also progressthe triggering of a bonus event to fight unique, rare enemies. Players who areBlacksmiths will want to turn one Obsidian Key in toForgemaster Bazentus in particular to unlock the only Professionrecipe associated with this area: Plans: Obsidian Seared Alloy.

For players who are not Blacksmiths, rewards fromthese two factions include a variety of cosmetic obsidian dragonflight drake weaponsand armor, two toys, a battle pet, item level 389/398 gear, and seven Dragonridingcustomizations.

Soridormi is a representative of the Bronze Dragonflight, working toclose a variety of Time Rifts opened in Patch 10.1.5. As such,this sub-reputation is exclusively handled from participating in these events,obtaining catchup gear and other cosmetics along the way. There are a total of5 reputation ranks to gain with her, with each milestone rewarding somethingdifferent:

• Anomaly (0 total reputation);
• Future Friend (7,000 total reputation) — grants the Minute Glass toy;
• Rift-Mender (14,000 total reputation) — grants Ensemble: Rift-Mender's Vestments;
• Timewalker (24,000 total reputation) — grants a Greater Encapsulated Destiny consumable;
• Legend (42,000 total reputation) — unlocks the "Unparalleled" title and a Greater Paracausal Chest.
