My bard is 48 and wearing lambent, but I want to go dragon helmet mode
 

I like my armor except the stupid bucket human helmet. I want to wear a dragon helmet. Which is the fastest way to move my fashion quest in that direction from this point? :D

Faction song + thurg plate helm mq.

Just aimable needed right? Is grouping possible in kael at my level yet?

I did thurg helm at 19 on my human cleric. You need kindly. Going from apprehensive to kindly takes about 170 kills in WL with faction groups. Thats the quickest. With faction song, you may need alot less. Go check in thurg first to determine how many kills in WL you need. Every giants gives about +5 thurg faction (+1 CoV only). Faction chart is there :

Faction song with a decent modifier is a massive faction boost.

Faction song almost 600 at my level

Yes, that's a bug that will be fixed. Cinda's should cap out at +300 faction like Collaboration -- not give the +610 it currently does.

Kindly is required for Thurgadin armor.

You can do ring quest up to 7 to amiable (ez solo on bard because of calm) then faction song or another ring up to like 4 or 5 and be kindly

What about the mq itself how much do people sell it for? Is it content off limits to non guilds?
