VP Dragon Faction Hits are too large

Quote:
Currently VP dragon hits are used by end game raiders as an easy fix for Overthere Outpost (Venril Sathir) faction. This guy in era (Dec 2, 2001) is talking about the hits being a trivial increase to OT outpost (Venril Sathir) faction. 60+ hits and still kos. While we may never know the original amounts, it seems the current values may be way too high. | |||

My Dark Elf ended up KOS in the outpost, and well liked in FV, just by playing Kunark. I didn't set out to do that. I feel like the classic devs were trolling with that faction, it never made any sense.
I'm max ally now, years later, from VP. I couldn't care less though, that's by accident. The faction is useless. | ||

Seems these dragons only gave +25 to VS

No...
No way that's correct... I remember SPECIFICALLY getting from Non-Kos to Warmly on live in just a few dragons kills my first time in VP. I'm not saying factions perfect, but it was definitely WAY WAY higher than that on live without question
I remember because I got my hammer literally after leaving VP for the first time on Xegony server on my Wizard. | ||

How do I provide evidence for a memory? All I'm telling you is what I remember and I remember it VERY well because I was stoked to get my OT Hammer.

I've not researched VP much, but if your guild killed a lot of guardian wurms that split a bunch (And if they gave similar hits?) then perhaps that boosted your faction.
Also, not sure what you mean from "non-KoS". Could be quite a lot of gray area there. Race/class, illusion as well, etc

AK log shows no faction hits on the trash in VP:
[Sun Oct 6 10:41:38 2013] guardian wurm has been slain by Hinky! [Sun Oct 6 10:41:38 2013] You gained raid experience! [Sun Oct 6 10:41:38 2013] Guardian wurm's skin peels away as moonfire consumes their body. [Sun Oct 6 10:41:39 2013] Theus begins to cast a spell. [Sun Oct 6 10:41:43 2013] Eomerz's body is covered with a soft glow. [Sun Oct 6 10:41:48 2013] You receive 3 platinum, 5 gold, 5 silver and 2 copper as your split. [Sun Oct 6 11:57:38 2013] A racnar is cleaved by a great obsidian blade. [Sun Oct 6 11:57:38 2013] a racnar has been slain by Eomerz! [Sun Oct 6 11:57:38 2013] You gained raid experience! [Sun Oct 6 11:57:38 2013] Eomerz delivers a critical blast! (3164) [Sun Oct 6 11:57:38 2013] A racnar is cleaved by a great obsidian blade. [Sun Oct 6 12:01:56 2013] You unleash a flurry of attacks.

It's not exactly reliable, but here's the last faction hit on the log after a few VP raids, not sure how bad their VS faction was to begin with, or if they killed much VS faction between their VP raids : [Sun Oct 6 14:27:03 2013] Xygoz has been slain by Jugo! [Sun Oct 6 14:27:03 2013] Your faction standing with Ring of Scale could not possibly get any worse.

[Sun Oct 6 14:27:03 2013] Your faction standing with Mayong Mistmoore could not possibly get any better. [Sun Oct 6 14:27:03 2013] Your faction standing with Venril Sathir got better. [Sun Oct 6 14:27:03 2013] You gained raid experience! | ||

I just killed Hoshkar on live I can confirm 3 of his 4 hits:
Ring of Scale -??? League of Antonican Bards +375 Mayong Mistmoore +225 Venril Sathir +75 The Ring of Scale must be enormous hit, in the revamp zone a yard trash bottomed me out with -799 before reaching max floor. Hoshkar's hit would be at least 25% higher than whatever that true value is.

2 trips to VP will take you from KOS to max ally VS off just dragon hits right now -- closer to 1.5 trips really. Current P99 hits are probably +300-350ish? maybe more? | |||
