Merchant Faction in WC and EC?

[GuisedShaman]

Anyone know what the merchant faction is in West commonlands and east commonlands?
Trying to be able to merchant here as a troll wanted to see if it was possible like doing the crushbone belts or something

coalitionoftradefolk i believe

I was told it might be CommonResidents too

here is the link in which you can figure out how you want to raise faction with them

[Swish]

CB belts (hand in Kaladim) is done at Canloe Nusback - very anti-troll, I wouldn't contemplate trying to raise dwarf warrior guild faction :p

Was always too impatient to do the Antonica version, not a fan of orc 1 :(

[GuisedShaman]

So basically my only option is to kill orcs for 800 hours?

Anyone done with this a troll or other evil races?

[Swish]

I grinded probably 1000 or more orcs in CB on my Troll SK - unfortunately that doesn't raise Kaladim warrior faction, so while I turned warmly to the Kelethin/Felwithe guards I was still scowl to most of Kaladim :(

The XP from belts got nerfed quite a while ago as well, they're no longer as sought after. By the time you've done the faction work the belts won't be adding much other than faction to your character :(

I seem to remember the commonlands merchants being on some weird faction like Knights of Truth or something for a while. Not sure if it's still the case, but yeah either way you're pretty much stuck with orc genocide. There is an orc camp in WC along the northern border with 8 or so orcs and the occasional roaming pawn that's usually open. Collect deathfist belts and sell if you don't want to turn them in.

Murissa(sp?) Sandwhisper in Nro is on the dervish faction, so unless you killed dervs she should sell to you, in case you're just looking for a merchant in the area besides Shady.

don't you gain kaladim faction by killing goblins and krags in bb?

Murissa is wierd on faction with the dervish, for myself it didn't appear to be on a 1:1 ratio with the dervish. Once upon a time I was apprehensive with the dervish, and was able to sell just fine to Murissa. I then did some help with some newbies, this knocked down my faction to dubious with the dervish. I then became unable to sell to her as a result of being dubious to the dervish.

10 hours later of killing orcs in West Commons still dubious lol.

10 hours later of killing orcs in West Commons still dubious lol.

What level now? :)

You certainly have "spirit" :p

[GuisedShaman]

Heh I wish I was leveling off them. No exp here for me :(
Hopefully it's the right faction lol

[Crazrum]

Does it have to be the merchants in EC or WC? The merchants in the FP tunnels should sell to you.

[GuisedShaman]

I'm doing it so I can recharge my raiders hat not super far away from where the Hat drops you off.

10 hours was not enough apparently lol..

Just wanna get confirmation that atleast I'm getting the right faction.

It seems like Commons Residents on the wiki says that they should be on this faction.

so far as a troll I was there for a good solid 10 hours then stopped.

Still dubious, hopefully atleast I'm doing the right faction, if not hopefully someone will let me know who has already done this.

[Kagatob]

The saddest part is the 10 hours you've spent factioning is probably less than the commulitave extra time it'd take a shammy to run to Neriak where you can sell.

I'm only saying this because I've been there. :(

[Duckforceone]

so you spent over 10 hours farming a faction to be able to run less when you have to recharge an item... will you ever spend over 10 hours running to recharge this item that often? :D

[GuisedShaman]

well that probably is true lol, but its basically almost afk killing there as a 50 shammy just letting pet do the job.

hopefully I'll get it eventually

[Swish]

Faction grinding is as much fun as XP'ing sometimes I think, same grind/kill mobs mentality.

[GuisedShaman]

Still dubious as a troll, butusing my Guise im amiably lol

And so far its only the innkeepers that will sell to me. Some are still dubious no matter what dark elf or not though.

[Swish]

The non-innkeepers be on a different vendor faction?

There's 3 sub groups of Coalition of Tradefolk isnt there?

http://wiki.project1999.org/Coalition_of_Tradefolk

1. CoalitionOfTradefolkI (Main freeport vendor faction)
2. CoalitionOfTradefolkII (Coalition of Tradefolk Underground - East Freeport tunnels etc)
3. CoalitionOfTradefolkIII (aka Dark Bargainers (http://wiki.project1999.org/Dark_Bargainers))

Not 100% but think that's right...maybe the first one is what the non-innkeepers are on?
