I agree, modifying the base has very limmited use. The Neriak Ghouls are one example, and incidentlly are a faction that do not take diety or class into account what so ever, only race.
The shroud system on live makes it possible to gauge faction hits on a single character and reset the values when you're done, by losing the shroud. It takes a lot of data, attention to detail, and some careful math to determine both how big the faction hit is, and where the faction was initially, but that's the only way to pinpoint all of the values in each table. Just doing the five factions in Cabilis took me two weeks of nothing else.
