Never had a char not go coldain/COV so I thought being not KOS in kael for once could be nice. Not like I'm getting 10th ring anytime soon anyway.

Kael is the better city. Thurg bank is easily accessible - but Kael you can port to WL and succor to entrance, and the bank is right at 4 way. And Skyshrine bank fughedaboutit

Rallos is the way to go because you start off dubious to Kromrif and Kromzek, which means you can turn in Coldain Heads to Bvellos without doing any faction work beforehand.

Anyone can do this with minimal help. Snare bvellos near the zone line or hail lock,pacify him. Start turn in,have someone invis you. Click trade,repeat.

Any good reason to be factioned in kael? Outside central location, raid quests and raid pulls?

There's some decent minor quests and like sammohung said it is well located but there's basically just food bank, and that's about it, apparently you need kt faction for bandages? Overall I think SS has better quest armor but it depends on the piece.

Thurg has like everything that can be sold in the game.

Kael faction is for raid pulling and the quest armor which has really good ac and arguably better FQ.

Otherwise thurg is better and you can gate to it with potions

Kael quests are pretty good.

Selling Coldain Skin Gloves/Boots, Frostbringer, Cloak of the Maelstrom, and Barbed Dragonscale Boots/Pauldrons is fairly lucrative for Torpor Shamans, as an example.

It takes me like 15 minutes to kill the two dwarves for Coldain Skin Gloves/Boots, and they drop their heads like 90% of the time. Plus the scribe usually drops an amulet that merchants for 230pp.

Coldain Skin gloves/boots also sell fast since every caster alt wants them. 2200pp's worth of items/plat for about an hour of work total between killing, travel, and turnin is nice. On Green it looks like Boots/Gloves are closer to 1.5kpp each.

Dragon head drops are not quite as consistent, but it only takes like 30 mins to kill a WW dragon, and you can get both a dragon head and a piece of dragon armor. So again you can get like 2k worth of items at least from a 30 min kill. They also drop spells, so you can make a bit of money off of the more popular spells too.

Often times when I've done the WW dragons with a duo or a group, the dragon heads are left to rot. Even if you're not a torp shaman, if you're able to get some people together that can kill them, you'll rarely have other people wanting that drop.

The only remarkable velious faction armor for a warrior is the skyshrine gloves (90hp). The rest is just a stop gap until you replace them from other raid targets with pieces that won't see a lot of competition.

Unless you're a puller, Kael faction is really only a temporary thing for when you turn in a dain or yeli head.

You'll want to switch back for the quests in WToV and coldain ring war.
