Just grinding the sentinels ALONE will take you max kos to ally in roughly 4-5 hours(did this solo as a rogue). I understand they give roughly same hits as the giants in GD etc and kael, but that lieutenant, surveyor, overseer, tox/escorts all give anywhere from like 15-50 per kill. Which understandably they are more difficult. But considering stuff like vindi/statue/KT only gave around 100 faction is pretty weak, thats like killing 10 giants out on the wall in WL.
I have parsed from max kos to ally++ 3 times on my rogue, first time was purely sentinel grind, no kael hits no kael boss hits and thats where i got the #/hrs spent. second time I mixed in some surveyors/overseers/lieutenants etc maybe a few toxx hits but not many. and my total kill count was about 50-60 less kills for the same faction.
Haven factioned numerous "new" toons who never took a CoV hit, jumping into a faction group or two where we sit at tox hill and pull all the sent/labourers/surveyor hut up, and just root or fear kite everything and burn it down with sheer rogue dps. I have got around 5-6 characters from mid scowl or low scowl to ally within 2hrs at max.
Even if they change, it will not be hard to grind the faction out unless they reduce it to like 3 faction per giant, which would be what nearly 3x less then current average giant kill?
