WoW Patch 11.2 Introduces K’aresh Trust Renown Faction & Rewards

World of Warcraft’s upcoming Patch 11.2: Ghosts of K’aresh unveils a new Renown faction called the K’aresh Trust, offering a 20-tier rewards track packed with cosmetics, profession items, and gear upgrade currencies. As players explore the fragmented homeworld of the Ethereals and Brokers, they’ll battle the Shadowguard in a Void-themed narrative centered around the return of Dimensius, the All-Devouring.

🌌 Who Are the K’aresh Trust?

The K’aresh Trust is a coalition of Ethereals and Brokers determined to preserve what remains of their void-ravaged world. Though not highlighted in Blizzard’s official blog, they’ve gone live on the Patch 11.2 Public Test Realm, revealing a full reward track for players to grind.

🏆 K’aresh Trust Renown Track – Notable Rewards

Players will also unlock cosmetics (cloaks, shoulders, weapons), Resonance Crystals, Valorstones, and crafting materials as they progress.

🔁 How to Earn Reputation

While exact rep-gaining mechanics haven’t been finalized, players can likely earn Renown with the K’aresh Trust by:

• Defeating rares and completing world quests
• Finishing campaign chapters and weekly quests
• Participating in K’aresh-specific activities like Phase Diving and Warrants

🔨 Additional Renown: Manaforge Vandals

Patch 11.2 will also feature a separate Renown track tied to the Manaforge Omega raid. Players earn rep here by defeating bosses, unlocking in-raid buffs, cosmetics, and more. This may be one of the final major Renown factions for The War Within, unless Blizzard drops a surprise micro-track in later minor patches.

Patch 11.2 is shaping up to be a deep dive into Void lore and endgame progression, rewarding long-term investment across both open-world and raid activities.
