Yop I'm lost, I can't find how to get my faction back to the druids so I can't be KOS in the rings. I thought that by killing : https://wiki.project1999.com/Unkempt_Preserver it would work, but it's the opposite :confused:

It depends on which rings. On my SK I killed blackburrow gnolls until I was no longer KOS to the druids in north karana, but I was still kos to the druids in West Commons

Those guys will make you non KOS to surefallglade/karanas. It'll make you KoS to those at Rathe though.

Nah that happened to me on blue. It's called reroll. Can't complete epic once kos.

So anyway, to fix WC, kill Shralok orcs in Highpass or Kithicor.

There are two factions for the spawns at the WC Druid Rings. Theres a few different npcs that can spawn there so it can be 2 Druids or 1 Druid, 1 Ranger
Surefall Glade Druids - Jaggedpine Treefolk (https://wiki.project1999.com/Jaggedpine_Treefolk)
Surefall Glade Rangers - Protectors of Pine (https://wiki.project1999.com/Protectors_of_Pine)
Jaggedpine is easy to fix, can kill those unkempt druids or the gnolls in Blackburrow
Protectors of Pine is extremely difficult to fix and they may always be kos
Links above go to the faction pages where you can see what quests/mobs raise or lower each one. NK/EK Rings I believe are only Jaggedpine Treefolk spawns

Don’t think that’s accurate

Kavious is correct about 2 factions at the ring, but I'm telling you from firsthand experience that the "ranger" faction pertinent to the WC ring is Kithicor Residents, and is raised by killing Shralok orcs.

I am willing to test this. I have a Druid that farmed Pixie Jongluers (https://wiki.project1999.com/A_pixie_jongleur) and became kos to the Rangers in Surefall Glade. I am also kos to Shadow Treebright (https://wiki.project1999.com/Shadow_Treebright) at the WC ring and thought for sure these were connected. I am not kos to any npc in Kithicor
Starting out I am:
Scowls, ready to attack (Shadow Treebright in WC)
Amiable (Morin Shadowbane, Leaf Falldim, Ged Twigborn in Kithicor)
I will be killing orcs in Highpass and will see if I can get anywhere with the faction

Did you account for (fixed) the jagged pine protector faction you lost from the pixies as well?

Thats the whole point of the test. I suspect that Shadow Treebright is on Protectors of Pine and that I cannot fix his faction (in any easy way)
Sirquestalot believes he is on KithicorResidents and that it can be fixed by killing Shralok orcs

My fault, I missed the part where the conversation transitioned to discussing the Epic quest

Got home from work and did some testing.... have more work to do to verify with 100% certainty, but so far, it seems that Shadow Treebright IS on Protectors of Pine, and Ceel Moonwhisper is Kithicor Residents.
Protectors of Pine can be raised easily but it will be tedious... easier if your druid is halfling and can sneak, but...
Each kill of Gnoll Poacher in Surefall bear caves is +PoPine, and you can do the quest "Nesiff's Statue" given by a druid GM.
If halfling, collect poacher heads either in Toxxulia or Surefall or both, and sneak behind the ranger GM to hand them in.
Time consuming but very doable.
I have no information yet on Cei Sunjumper, who supposedly shares the spawn point with Ceel.

harmony plus a friendly friend invising, i would collect poacher heads and pay someone 100p to help me turn them in

So looks like there is in fact 3 factions for the spawns at WC rings. After killing about 800 Orcs in Highpass, I was still kos to Shadow Treebright so he has to be Protectors of Pine. I can see that Sil and Ceel/Sei are on different factions and Sil matches SFG Druids and Ceel/Cei match Kithicor npcs factions. So I believe the following is what we have:
Shadow Treebright - Protectors of Pine
Sil Silverstar - Jaggedpine Treefolk
Ceel Moonwhisper - KithicorResidents
Sei Sunjumper - KithicorResidents
I still dont think fixing Protectors of Pine is easy but there are some options that have been pointed out (Ratskin Gloves or Poacher's Heads) so its doable with a lot of time

thank you for all these indications!

So, if by "easy" you mean difficulty, then it's incredibly easy to raise Protectors of Pine. Poachers in Toxxulia are something like level 2-6 and drop a head every time. The Nesiff's Statue quest is given by a druid GM and is just a trip from Surefall to Qeynos (south) and back. You might need invis to get in and out of Surefall past the rangers if you're kos.
Now, if by "easy" you meant "quick" then no... it's going to be time consuming (very) as the poachers in Surefall may or may not drop a head, in Toxx, only 1 poacher spawns every almost 7 minutes, and the Nesiff's statue is Lore.
But if you're committed to the faction dance, and willing to devote the time, you can raise this faction with practically no danger.

For annoyingly slow factions, I just commit to doing it a few times a night. Eventually a month goes by and your apprehensive and once your indiff/amiable its a piece of cake usually to get ally with one of their other quests.
There's more than 1 poacher. And a few in surefall itself so thats honestly not that bad... like.. 3 days work maybe.
Probably best to faction ahead to warmly before you them if you care.
