I was killing mobs in OT by the book and a guild of 70s walked in and started killing mobs. They let me loot everything which was cool ade almost 1k. Then they pulled one of the GMs and after 45mins they killed him frist time I ever seen anyone kill a GM in the game. No not a Gamemaster or guide this was a guild master. I wish I took a screen shot so i could show everyone. Only thing to loot was a raw hide cloak lol what jip.

Faction raising.

My 58 sk gnome did some faction raising here for his Worker Sledgemallet quest.

Sk started off as dubious. Took 24 warbraids to get to apprehensive, another 44 to reach indiff and yet another 44 to get to amiable.

As mentioned in other posts, sarnak warbraids drop from sarnak beserkers. One braid drops from every kill, along with an occasional word or rune or semi-precious stone. My sk seemed to have the most hunting luck in The Overthere, south and southwest of the central chasm, with most being in the extreme southwest corner and around the nearby muddy pond.

For lower level toons hunting in that area, beware of the sarnak messenger (he is a higher level) and the occassional patrol of guards from the evil colony (including General V.). If you are kos to VS, the guards will chase you down. They hit hard and run with sow.

Good luck,
Shadome.
any ideas?

Apparently, they nerfed Advisor in MM. He doesnt give VS faction anymore. Any ideas on how one can get positive faction hits for VS besides dragons in VP and Kunark? Isnt there any cheesy *** green mobs that give VS faction? How are lowbies supposed to fix faction after they hit Keasora or HS or KC? Someone said that fairies in FV gave VS faction but they were wrong.

what to kill
# Oct 21 2003 at 4:40 AM Rating: Decent
I have bought spells from evil vendors in OT before.. I am a Dark Elf Necromancer, but now they wont sell to me anymore, after my trip to KC. Should i just kille a bunch of sarnaks in OT to get better faction with Evil vendors or what?
RE: what to kill
# Apr 23 2004 at 5:50 PM Rating: Decent
If your only reason for being in the outpost is to buy from the evil vendors, and they won't sell to you, just make a new dark elf character to do the shopping for you. Since the PoK book is right next to the outpost, you don't have to worry about your level 1 character getting killed by a wandering rhino. This is how I do my shopping there and it's completely safe. If you don't have PoP, then you're in for a long walk, but it's definitely better than building faction and quitting Karnor's Castle.

I worked my faction in OT to get the hammer, the next day I went to HS and killed in there for about an hour. Found out the first time i used hammer---severely KOS. What mobs ( besides dragons and named) can I kill to raise faction again. I can't hand in braids so thats definately not an option. I am looking to kill any mob that is available to solo to a level 61 SK.
RE: VS faction Help
# Apr 21 2003 at 9:18 AM Rating: Decent
See the list above. Kurnark dragons are the only way. Not really an option for solo faction work, but you can tag along a gore raid and cast a spell on gore or buff one of the raiders to get faction.

On the other hand why bother? If you just use your gate hammer you can do it kos, too. Only 1 mob at the entry point and that is green to my lvl 52 bard who uses the hammer quite frequently.

Just swim around the outpost towards the PoK book or whereever you want to go.

no faction increase?
# Dec 26 2002 at 7:15 PM Rating: Decent
I am a gnome necro and i have done the quest and the faction does not say that it increased. Is it realy increasing? Have they nerfed it? Usualy when you get a faction increase it tells you right out that it increased. Instead i get the shield and it says he will tell the general or something like that.

Any ideas?

is there any way a vah shir agnostic war lvl 36 could do a quest/kill some stuff to be not kos at the outpost? it would be nice if i could sell and bind there, since i'm hunting in ot all the time...

am i KoS?
# Aug 01 2002 at 11:57 PM Rating: Decent
Well I've scoured the posts, and still haven't found a satisfactory answer... would I, an agnostic halfling rogue be KoS at the outpost? I know very well that rogues are generally frowned upon in most cities, so I was wondering if that meant we were considered "pseudo-evil" or something... any info would be greatly appreciated :)
RE: am i KoS?
# Nov 10 2002 at 6:09 PM Rating: Decent
The best/safest way to check your faction at the Outpost in The Overthere is to take the raft from Oasis to the Ogre Island in Timorous Deep. Get in sight of the Ogres and /con them. If you are KOS to them, you will be KOS at the outpost.
RE: am i KoS?
# Sep 03 2002 at 5:07 PM Rating: Decent
the best way to find out your faction is to head out to KC and find a Drolvarg inside to con. the drolvarg are on VS faction.

If you're amiable or below at the outpost in dark elf form, you'll be KOS in halfling form.
If you're kindly, warmly, or ally at the outpost in dark elf form, you'll be dubious or better in halfling form.
This works both ways: halflings in dark elf illusion or dark elves in halfling illusion.
(actually it's only a 950 point penalty for halfling, not the full 1000, but that's close enough)

Humans, Gnomes, Ogres, Trolls, and Erudites have the same good faction at the outpost as Dark Elves.
Other races (including iksars, skeletons, and werewolves) have the same bad faction at the outpost as Halflings.

Some examples of faction hits, for raising faction in both Overthere in Chardok:
Killing Sarnak Berserker: -2 to Dizok
Killing goblin in Droga/Nurga: +1 to Dizok
Killing Kunark dragon: roughly +20 to Venril Sathir
Turning in four sarnak war braids: +8 to Venril Sathir
Turning in green goblin skin in Chardok: +3 to Dizok
Turning in two Mt. Death Mineral Salts in Chardok: +3 to Dizok

Killing sarnaks in Chardok: probably lowers Dizok about -10
Killing various evil things in Kunark: lowers Venril Sathir

-----

Faction is the sum of five factors: Race, Class, Religion, History, and Magic. Every NPC considers those five things in deciding whether he likes you. Each is a number, you add all five together and get:

less than -801 -- scowls ready to attack
-800 to -501 -- glares threateningly
-500 to -101 -- dubious
-100 to -1 -- apprehensive
0 to 99 -- indifferent
100 to 499 -- amiable
500 to 749 -- kindly
750 to 1099 -- warmly
1100 or more -- ally

History is what's affected when you kill something or do a quest. I've seen quests with +1000 and kills with -1000 (or more) but newbie delivery quests are usually +1 and -1. The good quests usually give +10 to one faction and -1 to others, good kills usually give -10 to one faction and +1 to the others.

Magic is what's affected when a bard or enchanter casts a faction spell. It's either 0, +100, +200, or +300 for enchanters, it's probably variable for bards. Faction spells never stack, you can't even use them for two seperate factions at the same time.

It's possible that some NPCs have a sixth factor, a + or - because that particular NPC is just grumpy or friendly to everyone, but that is rare at best.

It appears that killing a sarnak in Chardok is -4 to (brood of) Dizok.

It's religion, not race
# Apr 13 2002 at 2:41 PM Rating: Decent
It all depends on your religion that'll make you kos in the outpost in the ot. For example. True that some humans will be welcome in the outpost. Some aganostic humans, and those warrior humans who follow rallos zek, and the human sk's who follow the innorrukk, they won't be kosed. Now a human paladin or cleric will be kosed in the outpost. Also all iksars I'd be gussing are kosed in the outpost. However if your allready an evil race, Darkelf, troll, oger, you won't have to worry about being kosed no matter what your religion is. Not sure about the oger shammys though. Of course you'll be kosed if your evil and you've killed ogers in TD. I made a mistake and killed a few ogers, not enough to be kosed though. Just Dubiosly. Handed in a lot of war braids to raise faction to apphre. Hope this helps. Btw, the mercheys won't sell to ya if your con dubiosly. As for the new vah shiar race, I'm not sure if they'er kosed or not.

Not entirely true about the evil race religion thing. A troll illusion cast on my halfling didn't work. He worships Karana and therefore the illusion was worthless. Just an FYI for anyone else thinkin of tryin that.

They both play a part in it. As a Vah Shir Beastlord I am KOS in the outpost. I'm only level 32 and haven't hunted anywhere in Kunark besides Lake of Ill Omen and Frontier Mountain, so it wasn't anything I killed.

I though Vah Shir were a newtral race and all other races are welcome in Shar Val? As far as I know Vah Shir are Newtral and Agnostic, but are still KOS in the outpost. I though the only places we couldn't go would be Erudin and Paineel, but I was wrong. I wish someone would come up with a PC race faction table showing not only if someone likes/hates us and how much so. Am I so far in the red with the outpost that I don't have a prayer of not being KOS in there? Factions in EQ are just plain screwed up. They are more for balance then follow an actual history or guideline, which would explain why a DE necro can walk in to Shar Vhal but I can't go in to Neriak.

I'm am a 46 chanter on the rathe, and i mainly hunt on kunark, dont know much of luclin or velius, and dont like to solo. im currently warmly to the szscorpians, and amiable to the outpost. I've been in DL for a long time and am getting sick of it, but as far as i know, my only alternative is KC, as im too low for Seb. anyone got any suggestions on other places to hunt so i can keep my faction?

I raised my faction with OT enough to get my proc hammer, I con mobs in kc to look around and the front side I'm amiable, but the back side across the bridge I'm kos, any ideas why? and if I should raise the faction for the back or not.
RE: Different factions?
# Mar 16 2002 at 1:17 PM Rating: Default
The reason for the different cons is that some of the Drolvargs in Karnor's are on Venril Sathir faction, while others are on no faction. As an example, the larger Drolvarg Sentries are on VS faction while the little ones will con scowling to everyone, despite your standing with VS. Hope this helps.

Just to let the poeple who messed up ther faction with Venril Sathir (The Over There)... There could be some creatures you killed along the way to ruin your faction..for me it was An OGRE Raider. Hehe the funny thing about it is they are there right where you catch the boat to The Over There.

Lets get down to business..from my experience I fouond out the only way to increase you faction in the over is the warbraids of course..but you can;t turn them in or your dead..sop the answer is you have to get a drak race mask which means you will need a hi lvl grp or hope you have a lot of EQ buddies..or hopefully you are in a guild...but if you happen to get the dark race mask that will allow you to freely go in The Over There and turn in your warbraids...thus raising faction in hope one day you be able to reveal yourself..I hope I answered some questions if any and good luck...it will be tuff
Evil Faction
# Jan 08 2002 at 7:18 AM Rating: Default
This is basicly evil faction. You rais Venthril Sathir faction your good in all evil places. Not like the braids where it it just for Overthere, even if the braids did do VS faction, ya, its gonna be slow and hard to rais it cause your talkin ALL evil race, thats ogre, troll , and dark elf. Ya just cant do it without killin big mobs. I have a 52warrior(ogre) and a 56enchanter(dark elf) and i hunted in Karnors castle. Boy was that ever a mistake. Look what i gotta do now. Being 55 Hopefully wont be hard to get a good amount of Braids to TRY the quest and see how many it will take to get my faction up so that i can at least enter the city. FURTHUR MORE i have TWO characterst to do!! Evil faction is the hardest to get. You get it when you start the game, DONT MESS IT UP!!

I am a human SK who screwed up my faction killing Ogres in TD before i knew anything. The evil out post is where the SK epic starts and now im kos. Does the werewolf illusion to turn in the braids work? And are these the only mobs to kill to get good faction? And can you turn the braids in more then once if needed?
RE: Faction
# Feb 04 2002 at 11:34 AM Rating: Decent
You don't really have to worry about ******** up your factio for the SK epic. The NPC who starts off Inny's Curse in OT isn't on VS faction, he's on TrueSpirit faction and you'll be apprehensive to him. He's located near the shore in the outpost, far enough away from the NPC's on VS faction for you to be able to start off your epic without any problems. Just don't fear kite inside the outpost :P

I am not sure, but i think an enchanter friend of mine told me, the spells bone of garou and/or Illusion Werewolf would change faction with Vs so you could go in and traid in Sarnak Warbraids for faction.Friends please be carefull i am not sure so please con and let me know if i am right, Because i never tried

# Jan 02 2003 at 12:28 PM Rating: Decent
I've tried just about every illusion i can think of that a lvl 39 enchanter has. Spiritwolf does not work, even with benevolence cast on the guards. The ogre and dark elf in the building where the braid quest takes place are dubious to me. But the SK Iksar and the guards outside are kos. As soon as invis drops the guards comethrought the walls (I frigin hate that aspect of the game) and kill me in 2 seconds. I don't have the werewolf illusion but I'm told it's just as kos as Iksar illusion so that's a dead end as well.
