Initiate Firansad

Im not sure, however I killed him as a 45 monk, easy kill.
He dropped the following
"Kloms Blessed Headband" Lore, Magic no stats

Got faction hits with the same you would get if you killed a guard.
He didnt respond to any of my hails allthough I am KOS to him. Using sneak I was able to determine that he is a monk trainer.....but why would he drop something??

Im a lv 6 paladin on the tribunal server and i have been questing the new low lv pally armor quest. Now for the greaves I am required to find a coyote pelt. I have no clue where to find that at. I have killed tons of coyotes in Nro with my druid but have had no luck. If anyone know where i can find a coyote pelt plz post up a message or send a tell to Talvalia (26 druid) or Korlock (6 paladin). Thanks

There are also coyotes in Steamfont but aside from being on another continent they might not drop the exect ones you need.

However I've kill little less than 50 coyotes and found about 3 cyot pelts

The Coyote Skins do drop off the Coyotes in North Ro; however, it is a rare drop. I don't remember how many I had to kill, but I was about to give up and decided to kill just one more, and there it was. Have patience; it will drop.

RE: Witch Is Better XP???
# Jun 17 2002 at 11:37 AM Rating: Decent
Oasis of Marr! I jumped 2 levels (18,19) there with the orc groups. Not to mention the plat earning loot. You have to watch your back for skellies and madmen that can cast, not to mention Bluto the sand giant (as I spitefully call him) that walks through the main orc infested areas but with a full group weve only lost 2 people over 5 hours (realtime). It's pretty easy to end up in a well balanced group to take out orcs by the hundreds and stay there easily until lvl20.

Just sent out a shout or tell or go /lfg and someone will pick you up eventually. As a ranger though you would probably be picked as a puller unless you get in a group with a tank. Stock up on food and water though cause you'll be there long enough that you'll be low before you know it.

Enjoy =)

General map - main page, click atlas, click main continent map This will have the linking of the various zones

Specific map - Go inside of a creature or quest page related to Ogguk and then click the region (right at the top) and it should bring you to a page with various map options including path maps.

Hope this helps
Merchant Faction
# Apr 16 2002 at 12:35 AM Rating: Decent
There are 2 Merchant factions in the freeport area:

Coalition of Tradefolk Illegal
Coalition of Tradefolk

Then there are the following merchants ---

East Commonlands:
-----------------
Innkeep Blaise
Innkeep Calen
Innkeep Dolman
Innkeep Elora
Innkeep Fenia
Innkeep Harold
Innkeep Juna
Innkeep Leo


West Commonlands:
-----------------
Innkeep Olissa
Innkeep Redthorn
Innkeep Roster
Innkeep Seke


Someone PLEASE tell me what faction these merchants are on. It is NOT either of the above mentioned factions, because i have done the Orc Pick quest that gives only + faction to BOTH Illegal and Reg. factions, and i am dubious to them and amiable to the ones on those factions.

Someone PLEASE provide info on those merchants factions. To make it PAINFULLY clear who i am talking about, these are the merchants in the inn that when you enter, they are the first merchant you see. they are NOT the ones to the left and right.

Thanks!

I was walking along the path from freeport and i saw this NPC in front of the hut. His name was
!theground and i got really confused. Well, anyways, I conned him and he was green , which i was all excited about since the only other green NPC to me is the soulbinder. I asked around about this guy and people said he only has one HP, so me and another guy decided to attack him. But i didnt see another guy around. So when i went up to attack him.....He Just Disappeared! The other guy said he had killed him and the NPC said his comrades will avenge his death, but no faction hits. And he didnt drop any loot. WTF is this guy! Well, im gonna get on now and see if i can find him again cya.

I encountered !theground on 2 different servers today. If you do anything but con, he dissapears and can be found in the tunnel on the way to North Ro. He only takes 1 hit to kill and says he will be avenged. So far no revenge from anybody. He drops nothing so far.

I saw this thing yesterday, kicked it, it went down in one shot. Doesn't have any lot, faction or anything. When I hailed it, it did nothing, when I taunted it, or begged from it, it attacked me. I also saw another mob in ek with just the name (!) But I didn't attack them, thinking they'er bugs or something.

A few times when i was still like, lvl 5 or 6,id be in ec and somtimes ill get the bejesus kicked out of me by like a black bear or willow wisp,or whatever.And JUST before i die(when im already unconcious)somthing called "pain and suffering" strikes me for melee damage(somtimes it misses)but ive never seen it before.WHAT IS THIS THING?
RE: PAIN AND SUFFERING?
# Mar 26 2002 at 8:20 PM Rating: Decent
When you die it's just something that's put in there to show that if you don't get a heal or something then you will die. Once you get this message you will not regain consciousness w/o a heal.
RE: PAIN AND SUFFERING?

Actually, pain and suffering IS a mob that hits incredibly fast. They used to let u kill it, but i believe that's been nerfed = P
RE: PAIN AND SUFFERING?
# Jan 24 2002 at 12:05 PM Rating: Default
it's damage over time knowen as poison and/or disease. a spell that makes you loose life over time faster than you can gain it. if you have a healing spell or cures, you should use it if you have this poison and/or disease as it WILL go away in time. good luck hunting!

There are a few things i have seen that were not in the bestiary--has anyone heard of Bzz Da Bomb or Bzz Da Charmer? i was outside the tunnel and they both showed up. they look like bixies and are apparently pretty powerful because they cast and there were about 50 people of various levels trying to waste them; it took about 10 mins.

RE: Con
# Dec 19 2001 at 10:19 PM Rating: Default
The guards have to con dubious or better, and u can enter the city... be aware that not everyone in the city will be dubious, for instance the wizard/mage/ench faction (academy of science, i think) will kill you, and north freeport guards are paladins (knights of truth) they may also hate you unless you build faction. consider as you go.. until u know
FACTION
# Nov 15 2001 at 9:00 PM Rating: Default
I have worked a long time to try to raise faction with the merchants in the inns, with a small degree of success, but it's getting a little upsetting.
I (a DE SHD) started dubious to all the merchants in the inns, and the guards (freeport melitia)..and the residents (commons residents) and merchants in freeport (coalition of tradefolk). KOS to the Knights of truth and priests of marr..blah,blah..so i set the stage..
So i kill enough orcs and hand in enough belts to be amiable to the melitia and coalition of tradefolk ill... this was the merchants in the inns in the middle only, the two on either end were still dubious. So i keep killing orcs.. until one day i get the message that my faction with deathfist orcs could not possibly go any lower. I check all around then, and even the knights of truth are amiable to me but none of the merchants in fp will sell, and the ones in the inns are still dubious too! So i start running some letter quests, and gaining faction withthe militia and coalition of tradefolk.
Now: i am amiable to knights of truth, amiable to merchants of freeport (coalition of tradefolk) , amiable to coalition of tradefolk illegal, kindly to melitia..... and the two merchants on either side of the inns in EC, WC and NRO wont sell to me still. (dubious) So.. what faction are they? and if the easiest answer is something like beta neutral...lets just say they didn't start out nuetral. (BTW the gypsies are like this too in OOM and NK, but there is one in OOM that does sell to me ( the shamen spell girl, she's on beta neutral)
So it all comes down to: has anybody ever noticed that they have been able to change facton with these characters? and if so by doing what?
RE: FACTION
# Feb 16 2002 at 7:44 PM Rating: Decent
I finally figured it out. Being a dark elf, I started out dubious to almost all of the merchants in EC. After killing a couple hundred orcs, I became amiable to the merchants in the middle of the inns, but the left and right side merchants would con dubious still. Thousands of orcs later, no change. Finally I went to work on faction in Qeynos and started killing Blackburrow Gnolls. Once I got to amiable with the merchants and guards there I stopped. Later I came across the merchants in EC and lo and behold I was amiable to all of them. Therefore I conclude, the outside merchants are either on Qeynos Merhcants faction or share faction between Commons Residents and Qeynos Merchants. Hooray! Now you know you can kill blackburrow gnolls to raise faction with these guys.
RE: FACTION
# Mar 05 2002 at 6:27 PM Rating: Decent
"Therefore I conclude, the outside merchants are either on Qeynos Merhcants faction or share faction between Commons Residents and Qeynos Merchants."

Your conclusion is pretty much correct. For some unknown reason, the other merchants in the inns are on Merchants of Qeynos faction. Which basically means that there are more NPCs in the Commonlands on Merchants of Qeynos faction than there are on Commonlands Residents, which makes next to no sense to me.

Just a FYI, every NPC that has faction is on a single primary faction. Your faction standing with a single NPC is never a combination of more than one faction, only their primary one. Killing that NPC may lower your faction standing with other factions, but only one faction is the primary one. That faction is what the faction part of /con messages (scowls, threateningly, etc.) is based on.
RE: FACTION
# Jan 03 2002 at 5:18 PM Rating: Default
I fully understand your plight. Am a DEF SK as well and have done pretty much the same as you. Haven't gotten to point where faction is low as possible with orcs yet though. Surely someone out there knows a way to gain faction with the merchants (they are supposed to be commons residents)
