WALL OF TEXT INC
According to ZAM, Freeport guards in Commonlands, EC, and Freeport are on factions "The Freeport Militia" and "Coalition of Tradefolk Underground" (as a side note I've noticed that many guards across Norrath have similar faction standings; they are half local merchant faction/half city guard)
Deathfist Orc faction hits: Ashen Order (Monk guild) Commons Residents (merchants in Commons area) Guardians of the Vale (stupid halflings) and Knights of Truth (clerics/paladins under Mith Marr in FP)
Orc Scalp quest faction hits: Highpass Guards, Carson McCabe, Merchants of Highpass, Corrupt Qeynos Guards and The Freeport Militia.
I don't recall that HP orcs give you faction toward The Freeport Militia, but I could be wrong. ZAM unfortunately doesn't have the classic faction hit listing that the orcs used to give.
My suggestion: Hoard orc scalps like it's your job.
Best way I know to get orc scalps is to camp Highpass orcs. 8 orcs spawn near the zone line to Kith, and they are on a FOUR MINUTE timer. Crazy, right? When I'd camp here I'd wait until all 8 spawned then AoE them down all at once.
ABOUT STUPID BARDS:
Bard guilds are dumb and you'll probably accidentally run past one at some point in Freeport. Best way to get up faction with bards is to go to East Freeport to Grub & Whatever tavern near the docks and find Fabian. He's got a lute, stands on a table. He's green to me at level 58, but I doubt he's higher than like 12.
Hand in 1 gold at a time to him (he'll accept this even if you're scowls. I've done it) and he'll give you faction with Bards of Antonica and some other guilds. I recommend taking about 900 gold. CTRL+click gold and hand it to him one piece at a time; it'll go kinda fast. Just zone out and think about how much they're gonna love you.
