Deepwater Knights faction (Pally Epic)

Anyone got an opinion on the best way to raise this? So far i've been killing baby sharks in Erudin but this is painfully slow. What about guards in Paineel or something? Any ideas?

Spend an hour or two ganking Elial Brook at the dock in Toxx. That should get you enough faction for whatever you need. Could also spend the whole day there and max out the faction, working on spell skills and fishing in between kills. That's what I like to do at any rate, hehe.

As I understand it, guards in Paineel have no faction hits. Tadkins is right, Elial Brook is the way to go. He's a substantial faction boost per kill. What Tad left out is you can raise your begging skill on the canoe at the dock along with your other skills while waiting for Elial to respawn.

The Stonehenge-style hemicircle in Paineel just down the steps from the entrance out in the open has 5 or 6 Erudite necros that hang out around out - with 1 additional npc that paths in.

Respawn time is approx 6 minutes and change. Just been setting a timer and chilling with YouTube, knocking them down for a couple hours now. Already gone from Apprehensive to Amiable with Deepwater Knights! Only thing is I don't have a Paineel key so I can't run out and hit Elial Brook too but this is pretty chilled tbh.

Compared to sitting underwater in the Erudin docks for days on end killing Diseased Sharks (that spawn very inconsistently) this seems to be the way to go about it.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Having done this on my paladin and telling other paladins about the following tip, my recommendation is farm warrens for molars and turn them in. Refarm warrens to offset any hits to paineel guards if you want to stay good on both sides. Had a paladin buddy who was at least 2 levels beneath mine (this is 2-3 months ago) go do the warrens farm while i camped Elial for 2 or 3 hours. He quickly caught up to and passed my rep level (he was dwarf paladin while i was high elf). In terms of rep per hour - the warrens beats out elial hands down. I did elial for a few hours over a few nights and it was slow going. (This is on a non xp / rep boost normal day ).
