Getting back gnome faction from killing in SolA

[Melodyy]

Hi,

I stupidly ruined my gnome faction in SolA and need to get it back. I can do quests over and over no problem if that's the best way, or kill mass mobs--I'm lvl 38.
Specifically I need to improve:
1) Gem Choppers
2) King AkAnon
3) Merchants of AkAnon
4) Solusek Mining Co.

For the first two I went to kill Mino's in SF but it looks heavily camped and not that many mobs. Any ideas how I can tackle those four factions?

Thanks!

The minotaurs in the caves past the windmills are rarely camped. These will give Gem Choppers and King AkAnon faction.
The aqua goblin camps in BB are also rarely camped and will give Gem Choppers faction.
Mining Company faction requires mass killing in SolB.

Btw, all of the mobs give only +1 positive faction per kill so it will take a while.

Good news and terrible news lol. Dang.. .

There is a big hit on Meldrath iirc.

Bow down to Christina and I'll put in a good word to King Ak'anon for you...for forgiveness.

I know the ways and am legendary in my city.

Facts.

first 3: https://wiki.project1999.com/Shondo_and_the_Tonic (will have to kill some minos or kobolds until dubious unless you have tricks. he on Gemchopper faction.)
last one: mass murder in solB is only way I believe

[Algarana]

I'm very nearly in the same situation.

As others have indicated the Minos in the mino cave with Meladrath is amazing. I farmed it for about 2-4hrs and went from KOS to warmly for King Akanon and GemChoppers.

The quest shondo and the tonic, used 160p and purchased 16 stacks of Vastly Deep Ale, turned these in at a time, bit tedious but now I'm no longer KOS to the bankers and merchants will sell to me.

I've slaughtered kobolds for weeks doing groups at royals probably 5 different occasions for 2-3hr stints gaining Solusk Mining co rep. But I'm still KOS.
I've found 10 dwarfs in BB that give Miners 628 Faction, I've spent about 7hrs just grinding them out, but I'm still KOS.

So it's between the Miner reps, near as I can tell unless I am missing something. All this after a single session of about an hour killing gnomes. I would very much like an indicator of which faction I need to raise more as it's super annoying trying to guess which of the 4 factions listed the gnomes in Sol B are actually on Miners 628 or Solusek.

Wait... why do people want Gnome faction?

[Algarana]

No good reason, other than I would like to be able to walk past them.

Kill kobolds and minotaurs all day, in steamfont. Its easy. The king will be pleased

[Algarana]

It's not easy. There are 5 factions I'm warmly with 3 of them and unsure which or if both of the 2 mining reps needs focus.
Kobolds & FG's are the only mobs to kills for Solusek Mining Co in Sol B and Mining Co 628 is 10 bandits in BB. It appears each of these kills are 1 pt gains, despite the wiki indicating 10, so it takes a while to see any improvement. There's no way to validate which of the two mining factions requires more work as neither of those reps have any mobs that are exclusively on one rep to check the status of either.

I would be nice if it was just steamfont kobolds.

I assumed OP was a bard, there's a gnome on these factions repeatedly involved in the bard epic. On the other hand, I think many players here don't realize how incredibly unlikely it is that their bard will ever get an epic on P99 anyway.

For everyone else (epecially you rogues who think this is somehow a big deal for your epic, or really even for natural gnomes in many cases but I kinda understand that) you shouldn't give a single shit. There's nothing you need from Ak'anon or that small part of Kaladim that you should need to care about by the time you're mid 30's+ and can kill at SolA.

So many people since the opening of green/teal replying to group invites that they are scared of their precious factions. Fortune favors the bold here in Norrath, stop being afraid of killing these gnomes.

Bards have sneak problem solved.
