Bear form should not change factions.
I recently heard bear form changes faction.
This should not happen, you should be viewed as your native race. I have tried finding anything to prove bear form does (or does not) alter faction, but could find nothing of era. The best I could come up with was forum posts archived in 2004 (so we don't know when the thread initiated): " I don't think bear form changes your faction like wolf form " "Bear form does not affect faction in current zones. Wolf form raises faction in some areas, lowers it in others. " "no faction issues" https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/...ar-form.33357/ | ||

Thank you for playing Devil's advocate. I did admit the evidence I could find was late a I couldn't find much predating it, but thank you for reiterating that point.
Incidentally, do you have much evidence that faction changing does happen? Regarding the epic thing; people are very paranoid/superstitious when it comes to epic hand ins on live as reimbursements were not so quick/generous. I'd hardly weigh people relaying hearsay of 'don't use it for your epic hand in for unknown reasons' the same as 'I have checked and this doesn't change your faction'. | ||

I've always assumed since wolf(treeform?)/necro lich line/aon/enc illusions(minor illusion? Boon?)/clicky illusions changed your "race" in the race portion of faction calculations (from http://wiki.project1999.com/Game_Mechanics) that it would impact it in some way. -A modifier for your god -A modifier for your race -A modifier for your class -A modifier for your own faction changing efforts -A modifier that is spell based -A modifier that is NPC specific -A zone modifier Since you are changing your visible race, (%R returns bear for bear, wolf[or wolf elemental] for wolf, etc) I wouldn't have any reason to suspect bear would be different from all the other illusions.

I do remember on live the bitter disappointment my shaman of bear form not being the carte blanche for access anywhere like druids had with wolf form.
I was really confused why every illusion but bear form seemed to alter your faction standings. (I also had an enchanter). Thinking about it now, all the different shaman races have a different bear form (polar/black/brown), perhaps each of these different forms faction mods match up to that of the race which cast the spell? Maybe this is falsememory though. Hopefully more people can dig up more info and pin this down either way. | ||

I played a barbarian shaman back in the day and definitely ran into problems when in bear form. In every city, if you changed to bear form, you would indeed get attacked. I remember running into Firiona Vi and getting killed by the guards numerous times...

Kunark made you kos. Velius towns lowers you 800points or so, so make sure you are high faction from start. Bear form i think was treated as a normal illusion stats but no faction, I know there are a few old post about it, will find them when I get home | |||
