Manaforge Vandals is the new raid-only Renown tied to the Manaforge Omega raid in Patch 11.2. The following article explains how it works and the rewards you can unlock.
Raid Only?
Similar to Gallagio Royalty Rewards Club, the raid-only Renown track grants you various perks inside the raid, including a stacking buff that increases your damage and healing, a raid skip, and more.
How to Increase Your Renown with Manaforge Vandals?
Every week starting August 5, players can increase their Renown by 1 with the faction by killing bosses and lieutenant enemies. A catch-up is in place for players who fall behind up to the current cap.
Manaforge Vandals Vendors
We have two vendors tied to Manaforge Vandals.
Ba’choso sells cloak appearances for 
Loombeast Silk that starts to drop from Loom’ithar when you reach Renown 2.
At Renown 12, 
Ethereal Essence Slivers start dropping from Nexus-King Salhadaar that you can exchange for various cosmetics at Zo’ropo at Shadow Point.
