|Intro Text='''Fame''', or Reputation, describes how well your character is "known" to NPCs in a nation or region.

Fame is measured in "Levels" ranging from 1 through 9 (or up to 6 in Abyssea), effecting the availability of new quests as well as both vendor ''Buy'' and ''Sell'' prices. Fame may be increased by completing more quests in a given region.

Various '''[[Fame#Fame Checkers|Fame Checker]]''' NPC will acknowledge you differently as your reputation grows. Their various responses is how a player may measure their Fame Level.
|Secondary Text='''Tip:''' No quest has a Fame Level requirement beyond Level 6, however vendor prices will continue to improve in your favor. Besides, who doesn't like to be called "My Lord/Lady..."?
}}
=Overview=
Quests offer varying amounts of fame: shorter, easier quests grant smaller fame, more difficult quests grant more. [[Artifact Armor]] quests, for example, are notable for their large fame increases in the nation they are offered. There are several simple repeatable quests to rapidly increase fame shared below.

Regions determine fame based on quests completed within themselves and elsewhere, linked through in-world historic or cultural ties.

'''[[Jeuno]]''' fame is derived from a combination of fame from Bastok, San d'Oria and Windurst, in addition to directly completing quests in Jeuno. You may find your fame to be quite elevated in the Duchy prior to your first arrival. '''[[Norg]]''' fame is likewise raised as you may have run favors for the Tenshodo elsewhere in the back-alleys of Bastok, San d'Oria's docks, or all the way out in-between remote [[Rabao]] tent-shops. Likewise, '''[[Selbina]]''' quests increase fame in both Bastok and San d'Oria. '''[[Mhaura]]''' quests will increase fame in Windurst. '''[[Kazham]]''' quests will increase fame in Windurst, and Windurst quests will directly increase Kazham fame.
*'''[[Selbina]]''' and '''[[Rabao]]''' are linked directly with Bastok and San d'Oria.
*'''[[Mhaura]]''' and '''[[Kazham]]''' are linked directly with Windurst.
*'''[[Norg]]''' fame is derived from quests specific to the Tenshodo organization across the globe and within Norg itself. Each of the three nations and Jeuno have ways of increasing fame in Norg.
*'''[[Jeuno]]''' fame is derived from a combination of fame from all three nations, as well as quests from Jeuno.
*'''[[Adoulin]]''' fame is derived from many [[:Category:Adoulin Quests|available quests]] across the Eastern Ulbukan continent. [[Coalition Assignments]] do not raise fame.

'''Aht Urghan''' offers no fame mechanic as lore-wise, your mission is hush-hush to begin with. Likewise, '''Tavnazia''' and '''Crystal War''' quests have no fame requirements and offer no vendor price variations for lore-related reasons.

'''Abyssea''' areas each have their own separate Fame Level. It generally takes five repeatable quest completions per Fame Level, up to a maximum of Level 6—approximately 25 repeatable quests from no fame. Some repeatable quests may require player's to zone in-between completions adding additional time to this task. [[Dominion Ops]] do not raise fame.

==Fame Checkers==
Each '''Fame Checker''' NPC will give a specific dialogue according to the player's Fame Level in that region. Check the NPC's page for more details.

<big><big>Tenshodo Fame - Rice Ball Trick</big></big>

Traveling to [[Norg]] solely to check Tenshodo fame could be tiresome prior to the introduction of [[Home Point]] instant travel. To save time, players determined their Tenshodo fame level by checking {{Item Tooltip|Rice Ball}} prices offered by [[Ghebi Damomohe]] in [[Lower Jeuno]] (J-7) at the Neptune's Spire Inn.

=Quickest Claim To Fame=
The following are easy and repeatable quests to reach maxiumum fame for each region.

'''The amounts listed below assume starting from no fame (Fame Level 1).'''

*{{icon|Jeuno|small}} '''Jeuno''': Jeuno fame is derived from Jeuno quests and a combination of fame from San d'Oria, Bastok and Windurst. Between reaching maximum fame in the other nations, and completing "must do" Jeuno quests (like [[Chocobo's Wounds]]), Jeuno fame will naturally max out on its own and not generally require additional quests in the Duchy.
*{{icon|Bastok|small}} {{icon|San d'Oria|small}}''' San d'Oria, Bastok, Selbina, Rabao and Jeuno''': [[Only the Best]]
**{{Item Tooltip|Millioncorn}} route as they are cheap and readily available. Requires ~24 stacks.
*{{icon|Windurst|small}} '''Windurst, Mhaura and Kazham''': [[Mandragora-Mad]]
**{{Item Tooltip|Cornette}} route as they are readily available for either 50 [[Sparks]] or from [[Harmodios]] in [[Bastok Markets]] (K-10) for 224 Gil when Bastok is at least 2nd place in [[Conquest]], if in 3rd place they '''will not''' be in stock. Requires ~55 Cornettes.
*{{icon|Tenshodo|small}} '''Norg/Tenshodo''': [[Shady Business]]
**{{Item Tooltip|Zinc Ore}} are readily available for 200 gil each from [[Teerth]] in [[Bastok Markets]] (H-8). Requires 80 Zinc Ores (20 completions). Purchase 81 total Zinc Ores (6 stacks plus 9 singles) if you have not completed the required prerequisite quest [[Beauty and the Galka]].
*'''Abyssea''': Each Abyssea area has its own seperate Fame Level, and its own Fame Checker NPC.
**There is a "quick fame" quest in each zone that is repeatable. These are denoted with a "{{color|red|*}}" mark on the [[Abyssea Quests]] page. Requires ~25 completions per Abyssea area.
*{{icon|Adoulin|small}} '''Adoulin''': Fame is derived from many [[:Category:Adoulin Quests|available quests]] across the Eastern Ulbukan continent. Doing various different quests seems to be the best way to improve fame.
**Repeatable quests such as [[A Shot in the Dark]], [[Cafe...teria]], [[It Sets My Heart Aflutter]] and [[A Good Pair of Crocs]] (Aflutter must be repeated first), or [[Flower Power]] requires ~105 completions.
