Raising CoV Faction

[DeadlyReza]

Are Frost Giants the best way to be doing this? I see the wiki says +10 per kill and i'm Threatening atm so assuming im somwhere between -1000 and -900.

This means I'm going to have to kill 90 Giants just to get to 0?

Surely there is a better way?

Anyone have any tips?

Also is the wiki correct with it's Faction set up? the post was from 2011 so I'm curious to know if it is :)

Thanks for the help peeps!

Hang out at the entrance to Kael in WL, not only do groups form there often to faction, the faction hits seem better than inside Kael -- Mg

If you have druid /wiz to port and a cleric to rez you back velium delivery is fastest but at cost of about 5k. that's not including cost of hiring cleric and druid/wiz for 2hrs.

I am a druid and I have clerics on tap in the guild, what is this velium delivery you speak of?

One of Sentry Kale's quests. http://wiki.project1999.com/Velium_Retrieval

You need apprehensive or indifferent, I think, and Sentry Kale may be on the wrong quest depending on who wanted what from him last. If he's on the wrong quest, you have to kill him to get the right one.

Hmmmmmm ok I can see how this would work.

Die at Skyshrine
Start quest
Port to thurgadin
Hand in
Rez
Hand in

Rinse and repeat?

Is that right?

Can you bind/gate? binding at one of the spots and rezing at the other is much faster than porting.

COV is best raised on days Statue of Rallos Zek is in window

the largest nerds of the server will hang around Kael all day killing the giants outside in WL which give great faction - then if you are lucky - Statue will show up and give a huge + CoV hit after you tag him for faction....and THEN AoW shows up which is another huge CoV hit

Literally could be max KOS to max Ally in 1 afternoon of neckbearding with the neckbeards

Truth - this is the way

Once you get to dubious, then I'd hunt mercenaries and turn in their assignments.

Or just tag stuff during a Ring war. Very good faction opportunity there.

Not really. It's great Coldain faction. The CoV hits are miserable.

By the way, the wiki carries stock values for most faction hits. Typically trash mobs will all have a default +10 / -30 faction hit shown on the wiki. Almost all of these are false. They're just the defaults.

The wakening lands are bugged right now though, the 2 wizard NPCs carry an absurdly high faction value which has no basis. I've made posts but with no results. So unfortunately this is the best way to gain faction outside of Statue/AoW hits.

Rest in peace Kael arena groups. You will be missed.

Guys, thanks so much for all the help, I will wait till Statue of Rallos Zek is in window, this will be my best shot :) he carries 300, and AoW carries 500!

Where would be best to ask?

its not necessarily about the statue and aow hits, though they are great.

outside Kael, in WL, groups of many nerds will gather to slay-en-masse the WL giants. These net +10-+15 a kill, and the named Tomekeeper and Lorekeeper are +100ish each.

no exaggeration I have personally done threateningly to ally in 2 hours

With the added bonus of Coldain faction, there really is no reason to be anywhere near the arena in Kael unless you're after Thurg armor drops (or Vindi etc)
