Faction ... faction vs fiction?

[Troxx]

Word on the street is that general giants outside Kael in Wakening lands gives a larger faction hit. According to the wiki this is hit or miss. Compared to Live where faction is reported with a raw numerical value ... general giants in WL are the same as EW and GD with few exceptions.

What's the general consensus?

If faction hits for trash giants is the same per kill, it would make sense that the mindless slaughter of lower level giants in GD and Iceclad is the most efficient way for a solo person. If the faction hits are indeed greater for trash in WL ... perhaps thats the best.

Thoughts?
