Priests of Life Faction Help?

[Speedi]

Hello p99 friends! Its great to still be playing on this box. Even though I am super casual I do still have a lot of fun and I appreciate the the job you all do to make this a great game. I thank you guys because EQ is a very social game and we all know without the players, p99 would definitely lose its appeal!

Now lets get down to business. I stream at times to promote the server and I would like to start doing something different than the usual solo efreeti/tranix and velketors camp on my druid. So I thought I would try HS south out with my necro. But before I done this I wanted to get a soulfire on my iksar necro (worships CT). All of you old school raiders know between Speedi and Kaleadar I have probably done over a hundred soulfires. But I need your guidance to enable me to get this done on Krikey (my necro)

TLDR:

I go to get the faction on my necro and its been a pain. I won't go into what exactly happened, but lets say it was total noob mode! Well I am sure you guys are not surprised, after all we are talking about Speedi right? :) Anyway, my iksar necro is KoS to Lashun Novashine (http://wiki.project1999.com/Lashun_Novashine). Even with an alliance neck and in wolf/skely form I am threateningly. So I need to know the fastest way to get my Priests of Life (http://wiki.project1999.com/Priests_of_Life) up to dubious so I can do the gold turn in quest to get high enough (amiable) and then finish up with the fish quest and be done. Right now I have been killing putrid skeletons in SK. They are a semi-fast respawn and give priests of life faction, but I am not sure if that is the fastest way. So I came here in hope of everyone's knowledge and guidance to hopefully get this done! :)

Thanks in advance for your time. I look forward to your replies!

Puppet strings and then do the gold quest?

You can borrow my strings if needed.

No go, enchanter friend that was charming him for me while I was doing turn ins said when he had him charmed he didn't get the faction. I have strings as well, if it worked I would use them. Thanks for the offer though friend.

it seems unlikely an iksar necro could ever be on good terms with the priests of life

Have you tried Silver Bars with Fixxin Followig: http://wiki.project1999.com/Werewolf_Hunters

I remember reading that Iksars can use him to increase faction with wolf form, so it might be worth a shot if you haven't tried it.

I have saw other Iksar's do soulfires before. I think I have even saw an Iksar necro as well. Was you joking or serious? I can't tell with you sometimes :)

i'm saying iksar necro being able to become friends with this faction is a non-classic bug

and that you're trying to exploit said bug

I will try this, thank you sir!

I wonder how much faction it gives per bar though?

[GinnasP99]

You can get priests of life faction from the undead camp in South Karana, right near the bridge. It's slow going, but it works.

I always wondered what the purpose of that pretty cool looking undead lowbie camp in SK.

Be aware this will hurt Opal Dark Briar faction, among others. Just saying.

Have a druid cast ensnare on Lashun, egress/escape his ire, and then wolf form you to get non-KoS for turn-ins.

Wolf form MIGHT get you high enough although with a CT worshipping iksar necro I don't know if that's enough. It worked for an iksar monk.

[Lemonhead]

What about bandit sashes? There's 2 camps in Lake Rathe with a total of 11 mobs on 6 or 10min timers, if you don't wanna bother anyone. No one is ever there cept me =P My inny dark elf was able to quest in wolfform, and was indiff after 6 bags or so.

[Lemonhead]

Check that, I was indiff with guards. Didnt check priests, but I'd imagine it's a good hit with them, since you are turning in to a priest. I thought I remembered faction going up pretty quick doing on goodies.

Get a druid pal to snare + Harmony him and do invis turn ins til you are dubious

done

[Muggens]

Your TLDR is just as long dude

Yeah, any time a mob is charmed it's not supposed to give any faction from turn-in's. I would just keep killing the skellies, by the time you run around trying all this other shit you probably could've got to Dubious killing skellies.

Is the Alliance neck bumping you from Scowls to Threatening with wolf form on? Or are you Threatening before click and after click? If you are Threatening before click and after you shouldn't need to kill that many skellies, Threatening is only like ~350 points on P99 and the neck gives you almost 1/3 of that.

Don't think you'll need a Soulfire to do South though unless you are planning on giving your pets some expensive shit.

Thought the same thing, lol.

Anyway, someone batphone Aalderon! The master of faction is needed.

[Aalderon Crystafire]

Like Speedi said in his OP -- he's Threateningly while in wolf form while using Alliance necklace. He will not accept turn ins if he cons threateningly -- Lull/Harmony doesn't change that. Also charmed mobs also do not give faction hits when you do turn-ins to them.

When you're KOS to a mob and you don't have sneak your best option is pulse (bard) invis. If you don't have a Bard friend I'm pretty sure you can use clickies items while the trade screen is open you so can spend copious amounts of platinum on cloudy potions using 1 potion per turn in.

did you ignore....

and do invis turn ins til you are dubious

Snare to keep him in 1 spot.
Harmony to keep him unaggressive
Open trade, use CoS ( or cast invis :P ) and voila

His was explained in detail so it was understandable.

I explained exactly what Speedi needs to do in 1 line :P

[Aalderon Crystafire]

^Yup. Though he probably will not need harmony or lull since Lashun is such a low level.
