For the Druid Epic 2.0 step 2 if you do not have Apprehensive or better Faction you still need Dubious Faction to do the work around.
At Dubious Faction you can passify the other Dubious mobs in the room (I don't know why they attacked me when I interacted without passify)
When you hail the A Broken Ritesdancer at Dubious he calls you slime and basically says **** off. However, if you say "Rune Fragment" to him he gives you a 6 slot bag and one (1) undamaged Noc Fang while telling you to fill the bag with 5 more. Combine 6 fangs in the bag. Hand him the new bag and he will automatically hand you the rune fragment back.
