PoG faction for a wood elf Bard?
 

I've never raided the plane of breath before, so the factions and the quests and the drops, everything is kind of alien to me.

What I'm trying to figure out is as a wood elf bard if I lose faction here am I going to be screwed?

I want to camp the sisters in the ocean of tears, but they give negative faction for this zone.

Can anyone give me some advice? Am I going to lose faction with the plain of growth anyways by raiding? Or am I shooting myself in the foot if I tank my faction here?

Bard armor drops in POG and Tunari herself drops a pretty nice bard dirk, so I assume I'm going to eventually be losing faction with her?

Seems like if you have negative faction the only thing that happens is the protectors of growth spawn and attack you every 25 mins. Is this something that is going to be happening anyways because inevitably someone in the raid here besides myself will have bad faction with POG?

Thanks! I really need to make some money and I'd love to level up Killin these sisters so let me know what I should do, thank you!

protectors of growth not exactly a minor thing...they will zone wide aggro and kill you as you zone in if you are KoS. Leaving your corpse there being camped by them unless you find help.

The muffin quest counteracts some (maybe all?) of the faction issues, so you'll at least be able to hang out in Kelethin again. My Tunare bard ruined her Tunare faction soon after going x-team, and it seemed completely appropriate so I never bothered fixing it. It is nice being non-KoS in PoG, especially as classes like bard and cleric. Can help a lot with CRs and stuff.

If you have a RP reason for not killing stuff in PoG, then please don't do it! It's not worth it imo.

What type of activities are there in POG? Quests? Grouping? Or is it raiding? Killing things that lower everyone's faction there? Is there a dark race counterpart to this zone?

Like what I'm wondering if your a good race, do you not kill things in this zone? No raiding?

There are some quests like the Tunare pally epic. It's really only a zone for elves, druids and rangers. Other good races can kill all they want without losing anything but elf faction, as far as I remember.

EDIT: For Tunare worshipers. Rangers and Druids of Karana can kill stuff here all they want without anything detrimental besides faction, though they really shouldn't.

Why shouldn't they?

because its bad. As in naughty and against their faction lore. And also stupid because then they become KOS. Might cause problems with some quests, but not sure.

There's a class-specific quest for Tunarian: Clerics, Druids, Enchanters, Magicians, Paladins, Rangers and Wizards and there is armor roughly equivalent to Thurgadin/dwarf armor for all classes except druids, paladins, and rangers, who have their equivalent planar armor set available in PoHate2.0 second floor.

Basically if you aren't a Tunare worshipper or you've already completed your Tunarian quest and your epic, you can safely trash the faction.

It's an act of extreme violence rooted in evil and hate.

My live character actually became evil when I gave up being an elf purist and started hanging out with dark elves and ogres. What's your excuse?

So like if I have bad faction there, and my friends go to kill things, will they be like NO YOU CANT COME because protectors of growth?

Guys thanks for the replys! I spent a little over an hour reading various things on the web but have gotten a lot more knowledge from you all!
