First off my character is a human cleric of bertoxxulous, and I wanted to get those nifty human cleric items in paineel. I conned a scowls to attack to the guards, having never lowering my heretic faction once in game. By default I went under the assumption that I was at MAX KOS at paineel to make my calculations easier on myself. I used both charts on this wiki page to give me a rough guesstimate on how long this will take,

http://wiki.project1999.org/Faction

I proceeded to kill this guy for my faction hits. http://wiki.project1999.org/Yelesom_Paust

According to my understanding of how the faction works, every time I killed this guy I would gain +10 heretic faction. So I killed Yelesom Paust 150 times, and did a faction check back in paineel. After 150 kills I was at "threateningly" level. Which I figured to be about correct, myself being at a total of -1000 faction level with the heretics, if I was at max KOS. -2500 + (150 * 10) etc.

Now that I knew I was at threateningly zone, I wanted to get to amiable. I would need to move 1000 faction to get to indifferent and at least 150 to get to amiable. 1150 / 10, so at least minimum 115 kills more till I'm good in paineel. I then proceeded kill Yelesom Paust 125 more times, just to make sure I was good and in the amiable zone.

I did another faction check in paineel, only to find that I am still in the "threateningly" faction zone, after a total of + 275 faction hits for heretics. This should have landed me in the amiable zone.

Is there something wrong with this chart? My understanding that I was getting +10 faction ever time I got + heretic faction? Or is heretic faction completely bugged and wasn't fixed properly from when anyone could just walk into paineel?

Yes.

No. Now, if this fellow should give 10 heretic faction points per death i'd need to see evidence for that.
