Overview[]
Reputation in Fallout: New Vegas is a measurement of how the different factions in the Mojave Wasteland perceive the player character. It is affected by positive and negative deeds that affect the faction in question, such as completing quests or killing members, respectively.
Reputation is separated into two categories: Fame and Infamy. Fame is positive and infamy is negative. Both types of reputation are tracked separately, the combination of which determines one's reputation with any given faction. The benefits and drawbacks of any given reputation depend on the group itself. The player character may receive discounts with merchants, provoke attacks from hired thugs, or simply be treated differently.
Points are accumulated by various means. Completing quests, helping people and generally making oneself useful will result in accumulating positive reputation points. Negative reputation can be earned by killing people affiliated with a given faction or town openly (+30 infamy points each time), being caught stealing (+2 infamy) or (rarely) completing quests for the opposite side. Each action that gains fame or infamy is assigned a set value in the editor, which is added via script:
Reputation Bump Breakdown Points Breakdown | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bump Type | Very Minor | Minor | Average | Major | Very Major |
Editor Integer | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
Reputation Change | 1 | 2 | 4 | 7 | 12 |
- Example: a script that says player.addreputation 001558e6 1 5 would result in a very major reputation bump, adding 12 points of fame and instantly promoting the player an entire reputation level.
Fame and infamy[]
Fame and Infamy (denoted 1 and 0 in the console) are earned by doing helpful or harmful deeds, respectively, to the faction. The combined effects of the two scales result in an overall reputation that is either positive, neutral, or negative. In the table below, these are colored green, black, and red respectively.
Positive Reputation Points ("Fame") | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Negative Reputation Points ("Infamy") |
± | Range 1 | Range 2 | Range 3 | Range 4 |
Range 1 | Neutral[1] | Accepted[2] | Liked[3] | Idolized[4] | |
Range 2 | Shunned[5] | Mixed[6] | Smiling Troublemaker[7] | Good-Natured Rascal[8] | |
Range 3 | Hated[9] | Sneering Punk[10] | Unpredictable[11] | Dark Hero[12] | |
Range 4 | Vilified[13] | Merciful Thug[14] | Soft-Hearted Devil[15] | Wild Child[16] |
- ↑ People don't know enough about you to form an opinion.
- ↑ Folks have come to accept you for your helpful nature.
- ↑ Enough news of your good works has been passed around that people like you.
- ↑ Renowned for your extensive support and goodwill, you are idolized by the community.
- ↑ You've left a poor impression on the community and may be shunned as a result.
- ↑ A little bit good mixed with a little bit bad, people haven't figured you out yet.
- ↑ People know you're good at heart even though you're occasionally a troublemaker.
- ↑ Your reputation as a good-natured friend of the community manages to outshine your dark side.
- ↑ Now that folks know you're bad, most people outright hate you.
- ↑ Even though you've done some good for the community, people still think you're a punk.
- ↑ No one's sure what to make of your unpredictable nature, but you've left a strong impression.
- ↑ Folks still think you're some kind of hero, but you sure can be nasty sometimes.
- ↑ For your overwhelmingly monstrous behavior, you have become vilified by the community.
- ↑ Despite your reputation as a thug, you are known to occasionally show a charitable side.
- ↑ Most people say you're the devil himself, but most admit you've also done a world of good.
- ↑ Your wild, seemingly capricious behavior leaves people scratching their heads in confusion and avoiding close contact.
The ranges of reputation vary by faction. The minimum reputation required for each range are:-
Faction | Range 1 | Range 2 | Range 3 | Range 4 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Factions | ||||
Boomers | 0 | 8 | 25 | 50 |
Brotherhood of Steel | 0 | 3 | 10 | 20 |
Caesar's Legion | 0 | 15 | 50 | 100 |
Followers of the Apocalypse | 0 | 8 | 25 | 50 |
Great Khans | 0 | 5 | 15 | 30 |
Powder Gangers | 0 | 5 | 15 | 50 |
NCR | 0 | 12 | 40 | 80 |
White Glove Society | 0 | 2 | 5 | 10 |
Settlements | ||||
Freeside | 0 | 11 | 35 | 70 |
Goodsprings | 0 | 3 | 8 | 15 |
Novac | 0 | 3 | 10 | 20 |
Primm | 0 | 5 | 15 | 30 |
The Strip | 0 | 6 | 20 | 40 |
Resetting reputation[]
There is no way (unless with console commands) to remove reputation points from either scale, except for the NCR and the Legion:
- visiting Mr. House will trigger an invitation to Ambassador Crocker, clearing the negative reputation pool for the NCR,
- confronting Benny will trigger an invitation to Caesar and clear the negative reputation pool for the Legion.
Beyond that, any positive or negative reputation with a given faction cannot be removed, only offset by a larger Fame or Infamy value. In other words, while it is possible to move from 'Hated' to 'Sneering Punk', then 'Unpredictable', then 'Dark Hero' by doing more and more good deeds while avoiding bad ones, there is no permanent way to move from 'Hated' back to 'Neutral' or from 'Hated' to 'Idolized.' And if the player character 'Idolized', they move down the chart to 'Wild Child'. Also, once a reputation of 'Wild Child' is earned, there is no ability to change it at all.
James Garret can be paid to start rumors in Freeside that affect one's reputation with the town. There is a limit to how much this can be done.
Using faction armor, it is possible to gain a higher reputation than would be possible. Equip the armor of the faction the player character is trying to work with to reset reputation to neutral. Then complete quests and earn fame which will increase from neutral and go up, but only so long as one is wearing that faction's armor.
- For specific low-level range values for various factions, see the Talk Page.
Killing faction members with impunity[]
Killing members of any faction from a [HIDDEN] state will not cause one to gain infamy as long as the weapon is considered silent and the target dies with one attack, or to use Mister Sandman. The one exception is the Brotherhood of Steel: Only Mister Sandman works, as even silenced weapons and C-4 will cause the Brotherhood to turn hostile.
Faction reputation[]
Each faction has a disguise which alters one's reputation among other factions.
With the exception of the White Glove Society, Great Khans and Powder Gangers in Vault 19, all factions will attack the player character with a negative reputation. Additionally, Powder Gangers outside of the NCR Correctional Facility and the Powder Ganger camp south would originally attack them even with a neutral reputation if the player character gets too close to one, but this has been corrected in the latest patch to the game.
Factions provide the following benefits/consequences with adequate reputation:
Faction | Reputation | Effect |
---|---|---|
Follower of the Apocalypse | Idolized | Julie Farkas will give the player character the Followers lab coat and a key to the Followers Safehouse, providing they have completed High Times and donated enough chems to fill one supply need. |
Positive | Arcade Gannon can become the player character's companion | |
Negative | Arcade Gannon will refuse to be the player character's companion | |
Brotherhood of Steel | Positive | The Brotherhood of Steel will give the player character a key to the Brotherhood of Steel safehouse. |
Positive | They will replenish an ammunition crate next to Ramos' room with random energy weapons ammunition every three days if one has a positive reputation. This coincides with the completion of Still in the Dark (for either side). | |
Negative | Veronica will refuse to be one's companion. | |
Boomers | Positive | Required to receive the Howitzer firing mechanism without stealing it in I Hear You Knocking. |
Idolized | Allows progress in the quest Volare! | |
Caesar's Legion | Liked | Lucius will give you a key to the Caesar's Legion Safehouse. |
Accepted | Lucius will teach the player character the special Legion Assault Unarmed move with an Unarmed skill of 50 or higher. | |
Neutral or Positive | The Legion will also provide various items within boxes outside of Cottonwood Cove; for more information, see the quests Caesar's Hire and Caesar's Favor. | |
Positive | Required to complete the quest I Put a Spell on You in favor of the Legion. | |
Positive | Required to help Silus escape from Camp McCarran. | |
Positive | Boone and Arcade Gannon will refuse to be the player character's companion. | |
Negative | Legionary assassins will be sent after the player character throughout the wasteland. | |
Great Khans | Positive | Required to complete Diane's tasks in Aba Daba Honeymoon, unless the player character is wearing Khan faction armor when they speak to her. |
High | Required to be named Papa Khan's heir after completion of We Are Legion. | |
New California Republic | Accepted | Allows one access to Silus during Silus Treatment. |
Liked | James Hsu will give the player character a key to the NCR Ranger safehouse. | |
Liked | Allows the player character to ride the monorail without the NCR becoming hostile if one does not wear NCR faction armor. | |
Liked | Allows the player character to convince each camp in No, Not Much to send reinforcements to Bitter Springs without completing their quests. | |
Idolized | Allows the player character to convince the mercenaries in Unfriendly Persuasion to leave without fighting if they do not pay them off or have high Speech. | |

Negative | NCR hit squads will warn the player character to change their reputation with NCR within three days or they will come after them, trying to kill the player character. | |
Negative | The quests Don't Poke at the Bear! and Don't Tread on the Bear! will become available. | |
Negative | Cass and Boone will refuse to be the player character's companion. | |
Powder Gangers | Positive | Eddie will give the player character one stick of dynamite, four pistol powders and four rifle powders every three days. |
Liked | Powder gang merchants will sell to the player character with 1-to-1 exchange rate. |
In addition, one's reputation with the major factions affects the kind of Courier duster that is received at the end of Lonesome Road.
Quest scripts themselves rarely grant infamy towards factions, but there are a few which do:
- Failing Beware the Wrath of Caesar! gains infamy with the Legion and turns them hostile (even if one's overall reputation is neutral (Wild Child). Reporting to Colonel Moore or Mr. House that the Omertas have been dealt with in For the Republic, Part 2 or in The House Always Wins, respectively, or by completing both Wild Card: Change in Management and Wild Card: Side Bets, will cause the quest to fail, as will killing enough Legion troops (though this is a moot point since they will be hostile anyway).
- Failing Don't Tread on the Bear! will gain NCR infamy, the amount and exact consequences depending on how it is failed. Reporting to Caesar that the White Gloves will or will not ally with him in Render Unto Caesar will cause infamy with the NCR and turn them hostile (even if one's overall reputation is neutral (Wild Child)). Working with Yes Man or House will fail the quest, but the Infamy gain will be trivial and the NCR will remain friendly. However, all active NCR quests will be immediately failed, and it will be impossible to accept further quests from them.
- Completing Back in Your Own Backyard in any way will result in Legion infamy, although this infamy is not enough to lower one's reputation by one level on its own.
- After completing How Little We Know by siding with Cachino and speaking to Caesar, one's will be warned that further crimes against the Legion warrant death. Completing Restoring Hope, Oh My Papa by breaking up the Legion alliance, or I Put a Spell on You by siding with the NCR and speaking to Caesar after this warning OR speaking to Caesar again after failing to confess all crimes will result in Legion infamy and the Legion permanently going hostile. Note that certain scripts, such as Caesar's dialogue on House's death, will override his 'warning' dialogues.
- Activating the self-destruct sequence in Hidden Valley gives the player character 100 infamy points with the Brotherhood.
- Activating Archimedes I and use it against the NCR troopers in That Lucky Old Sun quest will result in a large amount of NCR infamy.
- Completing Ghost Town Gunfight will always grant enough Powder Ganger infamy to lower one's reputation by one level. Killing any Powder Gangers during the quest will further increase one's infamy.
- Completing Beyond the Beef by snitching on the White Glove Society to Heck Gunderson results in White Glove infamy.
- Telling Marjorie that one "eat people, too" will result in the White Glove Society infamy.
- Completing Cass's side quest Heartache by the Number by killing Alice McLafferty at the Crimson Caravan Camp site will drastically raise Infamy with the NCR (killing Gloria Van Graff of the Silver Rush weapons shop is required for completing the quest, but will not affect reputation with the NCR. It will, however, cause Van Graff guards to act hostile towards the player character).
Towns reputation[]
A town's reputation determines the player character's treatment by the townsfolk. Unlike factions, they cannot alter a town's reputation with faction armor. Towns will never be permanently hostile to the player character; leaving the town for three days and returning should remove any hostility. (Note: Script for Primm reputation exists within the game, but is not used. A mod exists for PC users to activate Primm reputation.)
A positive reputation may yield positive dialogue, discounts from vendors, and even free gifts from wandering citizens. A negative reputation may result in negative attitudes by the citizens and higher prices when trading.
Specific consequences of reputation within towns include:
Faction | Reputation | Effect |
---|---|---|
Goodsprings | Positive | Trudy will give the player character a discount at her saloon. |
Mixed (both positive and negative) | Chet will give the player character a discount at his shop. | |
Freeside | Accepted | A random King will regularly approach the player character and give them ammunition, aid or caps. |
Mixed (both positive and negative) | A local will approach the player character and give them discounts at Mick and Ralph's. | |
Negative | Freeside thugs will not attack the player character. James Garret and Francine Garret will refuse to barter with the player character. | |
Novac | Positive | Jeannie May Crawford (or Cliff Briscoe if Jeannie is dead) will give the player character the key to a motel room at the Dino Dee-lite motel. |
The Strip | Positive | Marjorie will induct the player character as an honorary member of the White Glove Society during the quest Beyond the Beef. |
Liked | Mister Holdout will not sell weapons to the player character. | |
Accepted | Mister Holdout will sell weapons to the player character at an inflated price. | |
Negative | Mister Holdout will sell weapons to the player character at a discount price. |
Scripted instances of town infamy include:
- Lying to Lindsay about Mister Cuddles results in Boomers infamy, regardless of whether one passes the Speech check.
- Walking off during Pete's story in the Nellis Boomer Museum or condescendingly responding to his answers to the player character's questions will result in Boomers infamy.
- Completing Run Goodsprings Run will always lower one's Goodsprings Reputation by one level; killing townsfolk results in further infamy.
- Completing Ghost Town Gunfight will always lower one's Powder Gangers Reputation by one level; killing Powder Gangers results in further infamy.
- Completing Beyond the Beef in a way which results in Heck Gunderson blockading food to the Strip will result in Strip infamy. Generally, this infamy would be garnered by tattling on the White Gloves and failing to pass the following Speech check.
- Completing How Little We Know by siding with Big Sal will lower one's Strip reputation by one level.
Full reputation change list[]
Foreword[]
- The reputations are listed below in alphabetic order.
- Disguises are only available for the five big factions (Brotherhood, Legion, Khans, NCR, and Powder Gangers) and, as such, only mask the standing with those five factions. Other reputations are unaffected.
- White Glove Society attire is special, since it masks reputations with six factions; the five mentioned above and the Society.
Boomers[]
Impressing the reclusive gun-toting tribe is an art.

Positive Reputation Points ("Fame") | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Negative Reputation Points ("Infamy") |
± | 0-2 | 3-9 | 10-19 | 20+ |

Consequences[]
Positive reputation yields the following:
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, the player character will be provided with energy ammo in a restocking crate in the Hidden Valley bunker.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, the player character will be able to tell Ignacio Rivas that they are a member of the Brotherhood.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, Torres will sell an extended array of goods.
- If Idolized, Torres will sell her entire stock (due to an oversight in the amount of possible reputation gain in the base game, Idolized reputation is only possible with the completion of The End quest as part the Lonesome Road add-on).
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one will be able to identify Christine Royce as a Brotherhood Scribe, bypassing a 6 Perception check.
Mixed reputation yields the following:
- If Mixed to Wild Child, Torres will sell goods cheaper, though attempting this will block access to her extended inventory possible at only Idolized reputation, however.
Negative reputation yields the following:
- If Shunned to Merciful Thug, Veronica refuses to join as a companion, or if she is currently a companion, she will confront the player about this and leave, returning to the 188 trading post.
- Restoring a neutral reputation status (black on table above) will allow for Veronica being recruited as a companion again.
- If Vilified reputation is very quickly gained between the time it takes Veronica to confront the player while acting as a companion, the above mentioned dialogue is skipped, and she will immediately turn hostile.
- If Veronica had never been interacted with before becoming Vilified and is still at the 188 trading post, she will notice who the player is, and once spoken to, she will become hostile. If, she had been recruited as a companion beforehand, but had since returned to the 188 or Lucky 38, similar dialogue will occur, factoring in her already knowing the player, and then she will again turn hostile.
Gaining reputation points[]

- Complete Still in the Dark with any outcome:
- Did not fully assist Hardin's plans to replace Elder McNamara as Elder of the Mojave Brotherhood of Steel, and therefore only assisted McNamara in his own tasks (+12).

Positive Reputation Points ("Fame") | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Negative Reputation Points ("Infamy") |
± | 0-14 | 15-49 | 50-99 | 100+ |
0-14 | Neutral | Accepted | Liked | Idolized | |
15-49 | Shunned | Mixed | Smiling Troublemaker | Good-Natured Rascal | |
50-99 | Hated | Sneering Punk | Unpredictable | Dark Hero | |
100+ | Vilified | Merciful Thug | Soft-Hearted Devil | Wild Child |
Consequences[]
Positive reputation:
- If any neutral (black in table above), but positive reputation holds the majority, followed by a 50 Unarmed check, Lucius will teach Legion Assault.
- If any neutral (black in table above), but positive reputation holds the majority, the Legion will also provide various items within supply boxes outside of Cottonwood Cove, as part of the quests Caesar's Hire and Caesar's Favor.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, one can assist Captain Curtis (the Legion spy planted at Camp McCarran) in finding a scapegoat for his cover, during I Put a Spell on You to favour the Legion.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, one can assist Silus in escaping from Camp McCarran during Silus Treatment (positive reputation with the NCR is required to first gain access to Silus' interrogation room from Lieutenant Boyd, the NCR officer currently in charge of interrogating him).
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, Boone will refuse to join as a companion. There is no possible scene where Boone confronts the player about their actions like other companions since while Boone is a companion all Legion members become hostile to the player, therefore reputation gain with the Legion is rendered impossible.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, Arcade will refuse to join as a companion, or if he is currently a companion, he will confront the player about this and threaten to leave, returning to Old Mormon Fort unless the player verbally agrees to stop aiding the Legion further (any more Caesar's Legion reputation gain, regardless of how minor, will prompt a second confrontation with Arcade if he is still a companion, in which he will insist that he is leaving and gives the player no option to stop him).
- Dropping to a neutral reputation status (black on table above) will allow for Arcade being recruited as a companion again, despite his possible angered departure beforehand which caused him to leave.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one will obtain the key to the Caesar's Legion Safehouse from Lucius when he is first spoken to again.
- If Idolized, many named Legionaries will have unique greeting dialogue when spoken to; usually very positive.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better will one can identify that some of the deceased Marked men in the Hopeville missile silo bunker looked like Legion scouts, when talking to Ulysses during their conversation through ED-E at the end of The Silo (reputation level with the NCR must be lower, and the player's Strip reputation level must be equal or lower, when compared to the Legion's, otherwise this option will be overridden with an NCR or Vegas equivalent).
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can reaffirm to Ulysses that they realise that some of the Marked Men in Hopeville are former Legionaries, during their second conversation through ED-E at the end of The Job (reputation level with the NCR must be lower, and the player's Strip reputation level must be equal or lower, when compared to the Legion's, otherwise this option will be overridden with an NCR or Vegas equivalent).
- One can also then prompt further dialogue questioning Ulysses why the Marked Men are comprised of both Legion and NCR soldiers working together, despite the two sides normally being enemies, to which Ulysses will talk about how their feelings of abandonment and suffering have united both in a combined hatred.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can express sympathy for the Legionaries who perished at the Divide, when talking to Ulysses during their conversation through ED-E at the end of The Tunnelers (reputation level with the NCR must be lower, and the player's Strip reputation level must be equal or lower, when compared to the Legion's, otherwise this option will be overridden with an NCR or Vegas equivalent).
- If Idolized, one can make it easier to convince Ulysses to see reason during The Courier quest. Typically, a 90 Speech check, followed by another 100 Speech check, is required to convince Ulysses, However, if this reputation check succeeds, the 100 Speech check is later bypassed, and only the 90 Speech is required (reputation level with the NCR must be lower, and the player's Strip reputation level must be equal or lower, when compared to the Legion's, otherwise this option will be overridden with an NCR or Vegas equivalent).
Negative reputation:
- Once Shunned to Merciful Thug, Beware the Wrath of Caesar! will trigger, regardless of what point in the main questline has been reached.
- As part of this quest, bands of Legion assassins will attack the player at predetermined locations across the Mojave; all Legion assassins will be immediately hostile, with the exception of the first occurrence, where they will peacefully approach the player and exclaim that Caesar has marked them for death, then turn hostile.
- If Vilified, and one has not encountered a Legion assassin band prior, the exception mentioned in the point above never occurs; Legion assassins will be immediately hostile upon spawning.

Completing Restoring Hope, Oh My Papa by breaking up the Legion alliance, or I Put a Spell on You by siding with the NCR and speaking to Caesar after this warning OR speaking to Caesar again after failing to confess all crimes will result in Legion infamy and the Legion permanently going hostile. Note that certain scripts, such as Caesar's dialogue on House's death, will override his 'warning' dialogues.
- Caesar dies in any circumstance, except during his operation in Et Tumor, Brute? and if the player character passes the speech or medicine check to avoid blame (-100). (Even if they were previously Liked or Idolized by Caesar's Legion, resulting in Soft-Heated Devil or Wild Child reputation, all Legion soldiers will be immediately hostile)
- Complete Lonesome Road by nuking the Legion (-100).
- Complete Lonesome Road by nuking both the NCR and the Legion (-100).

- If Idolized, and the appropriate points in the main story have been reached (except during the Legion questline), for example reporting back to Colonel Moore that Mr. House has been eliminated as a threat, Julie Farkus can now be asked to have the Followers provide medical support to the NCR during the upcoming Second Battle of Hoover Dam. Farkus agreeing to this request is required to obtain the "good ending" for the Followers when siding with the NCR.
Negative reputation:
- If Sneering Punk or worse, Arcade will refuse to join as a companion, or if he is currently a companion, he will confront the player about this and leave, returning to Old Mormon Fort.
- Rebuilding to a neutral reputation status (black on table above) will allow for Arcade to be recruited as a companion again, despite his possible angered departure beforehand which caused him to leave.
- If Arcade had not previously been recruited, and reputation was Merciful Thug or worse prior to regaining neutral reputation, Arcade will have to be convinced via Speech check, negative Intelligence check or the Confirmed Bachelor perk from then on. This is because no matter how much fame is gained, the ability to recruit him by just Followers reputation will never be enough.
- Rebuilding to a neutral reputation status (black on table above) will allow for Arcade to be recruited as a companion again, despite his possible angered departure beforehand which caused him to leave.

- Speak to Julie again about donating a certain chem after at least nine doses have been donated, resulting in her mentioning that they now have a surplus of that chem, regardless of whether more is then given, as the dialogue itself is what triggers the fame boost (+2, maximum of +6, once all three chems are in surplus).

Consequences[]
Positive reputation:
- If any neutral (black in table above), but at least one instance of positive reputation had been gained, or better, Cass can be corrected on what the Ranger Monument at Mojave Outpost represents.
- Once Smiling Troublemaker or better, assuming positive reputation is maintained until his appearance, an NCR Ranger will confront player after around one in-game day and give them the NCR emergency radio.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, one can identify themselves as a soldier for the log book when first talking to Major Knight at Mojave Outpost
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, one can convince Lieutenant Haggerty to allow entry to HELIOS One and begin That Lucky Old Sun without the need to pass any skill checks.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or Accepted, one will be allowed to keep their weapons for Aaron Kimball's visit by Ranger Grant during You'll Know It When It Happens, but must keep them holstered. In this situation, actively aiming a firearm at any NCR personnel (the Legion NCR Engineer and NCR Ranger assassins not included) at the Dam once Kimball's Vertibird has arrived will cause all other NCR personnel to turn hostile and the quest to fail.
- If Smiling Troublemaker or better, one will be allowed to interrogate Silus by Lieutenant Boyd and begin Silus Treatment.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, followed by a 50 Speech check, one can open trade with Quartermaster Bardon at Hoover Dam before starting For the Republic, Part 2.
- Once Good-Natured Rascal or better, one will obtain the key to the NCR Ranger Safehouse from Colonel Hsu when he is first spoken to again.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can convince each camp in to send reinforcements to Bitter Springs without completing their respective quests during No, Not Much, those being:
- Flags of Our Foul-Ups for Sergeant McCredie at Camp Golf.
- I Put a Spell on You for Colonel Hsu at Camp McCarran.
- Restoring Hope for Major Polatli at Camp Forlorn Hope.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can ride the monorail without an NCR MP soon confronting them when they enter out onto The Strip, or the next time they return, depending on if the monorail was used to travel to or from Camp McCarran.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one will be allowed to keep their weapons, draw them and aim them wherever they please, without incident for Aaron Kimball's visit by Ranger Grant during You'll Know It When It Happens.
- Additionally, one can be granted access to the Vertibird landing pad atop the Visitors center by asking permission from Grant.
- If Idolized, one can convince Norton and his fellow mercenaries to leave peacefully at no expense during Unfriendly Persuasion.
- If Idolized, many named NCR military personnel will have unique greeting dialogue when spoken to; usually very positive, with a few exceptions, such as Razz who refers to the player as a "brown-noser".
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can identify that some of the deceased Marked men in the Hopeville missile silo bunker looked like NCR special forces, when talking to Ulysses during their conversation through ED-E at the end of The Silo (reputation level with both the Legion and the Strip must be lower or equal to the player's NCR level, otherwise this option will be overridden with an Legion or Vegas equivalent).
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can reaffirm to Ulysses that they realise that some of the Marked Men in Hopeville are former NCR troopers, during their second conversation through ED-E at the end of The Job (reputation level with both the Legion and the Strip must be lower or equal to the player's NCR level, otherwise this option will be overridden with an Legion or Vegas equivalent).
- One can also then prompt further dialogue questioning Ulysses why the Marked Men are comprised of both NCR and Legion soldiers working together, despite the two sides normally being enemies, to which Ulysses will talk about how their feelings of suffering and abandonment have united both in a combined hatred.
- If Good-Natured Rascal or better, one can express sympathy for the NCR soldiers who perished at the Divide, when talking to Ulysses during their conversation through ED-E at the end of The Tunnelers (reputation level with both the Legion and the Strip must be lower or equal to the player's NCR level, otherwise this option will be overridden with an Legion or Vegas equivalent).
- If Idolized, one can make it easier to convince Ulysses to see reason during The Courier quest. Typically, a 90 Speech check, followed by another 100 Speech check, is required to convince Ulysses, However, if this reputation check succeeds, the 100 Speech check is later bypassed, and only the 90 Speech is required (reputation level with both the Legion and the Strip must be lower or equal to the player's NCR level, otherwise this option will be overridden with an Legion or Vegas equivalent).
Negative reputation:
- If Sneering Punk or worse, Cass will refuse to join as a companion, or if she is currently a companion, she will confront the player about this and threaten to leave, returning to the Mojave Outpost unless the player verbally agrees to stop acting against the NCR further (any NCR infamy gain, regardless of how minor, will prompt a second confrontation with Cass if she is still a companion, in which she will insist that she is leaving and gives the player no option to stop her).
- Rebuilding to a neutral reputation status (black on table above) will allow for Cass to be recruited as a companion again, despite her possible angered departure beforehand which caused her to leave.
- If Sneering Punk or worse, Boone will refuse to join as a companion, or if he is currently a companion, he will confront the player about this and threaten to leave, returning to Novac unless the player verbally agrees to stop acting against further (any more NCR infamy gain, regardless of how minor, will prompt a second confrontation with Boone if he is still a companion, in which he will insist that he is leaving and gives the player no option to stop him).
- Rebuilding to a neutral reputation status (black on table above) will allow for Boone to be recruited as a companion again, despite his possible angered departure beforehand which caused him to leave.
- Once Shunned to Merciful Thug, Don't Poke at the Bear! and Don't Tread on the Bear! will trigger, regardless of what point in the main questline has been reached.
- As part of the first quest mentioned above, an NCR hit squad will approach and warn to improve reputation with the NCR within three days.
- If still Shunned to Merciful Thug following the three day warning, multiple NCR hit squads will attack immediately until neutral reputation is reached. However, being forced to kill hit squad members will likely cause reputation to decrease further and recovery will be much more difficult.
- If then Vilified, and one had not been approached with the NCR hit squad waring yet, the encounter never occurs; NCR hit squads will be immediately hostile upon spawning.
- As part of the first quest mentioned above, an NCR hit squad will approach and warn to improve reputation with the NCR within three days.
- If Sneering Punk or worse, one can side with Father Elijah during their conversation in the Sierra Madre vault and unlock a non-canon ending.

- Completed the rest of the quest by wiping out Cottonwood Cove's Legion forces by dropping radioactive waste on the area (+4) (Wiping out all of the Legion forces manually, followed by dropping the radioactive waste, will not reward additional reputation.

- The only exception to this is if Eddie dies during the NCR attack on the NCR Correctional Facility after warning him of the attack plans beforehand, as part of the I Fought the Law quest. Eddie will almost certainly die unless the player actively joins the Powder Gangers in killing the attacking NCR troopers, and though no infamy will be gained, the player will miss out on the large amount of potential Powder Gang fame awarded for Eddie's survival.

Notes[]
- Even if the player character's reputation is neutral, if they have sided with the NCR, then Caesar's Legion will be hostile and send hit men after them, and vice versa.
- If Boone or Arcade Gannon refuses to join the player character as a companion due to positive reputation with Caesar's Legion, using the NCR armor as a disguise will change that reputation to neutral. This will open a new dialogue option that allows one to recruit Boone or Arcade with a promise not to aid the Legion again.
- Wearing faction armor can be used to kill members of an opposing faction without gaining infamy with that faction. For example, if the player character wears Legion armor and kills an NCR soldier, infamy will be gained, but will be reset to one's prior reputation upon the removal of the disguise.
- If the player character fast-travels away from a location where/when they are normally expected to receive scripted fame or infamy before the notification pops up (e.g. fast-traveling away from HELIOS One after activating ARCHIMEDES I before the notification of NCR infamy has time to pop up), the player character will not receive the boost/penalty until the next time one travels to that location.
- Testacles the Debug Centurion, which is a "cut" content NPC, can alter one's reputation. He can only be spawned via console commands or mods, and cannot be found otherwise.
