Prolly the only"camp" ingame where everyone have the same goal and are actively helping each other without drama.(and all it took was faction for people to be nice to each other, no rules no staff no nothing other then faction)
Aye lets remove it asap, can't have people doing this!

Yeah it's kind of funny when you see people grinding faction now, you see Awakened, Aftermath, Rustle, unguilded, Kittens, Infernus, essentially you see every guild and non-guild type player there working together getting faction.

It is kind of funny if you look at it that way.

Just make another toon, I have 1 primal rogue geared out to be negative CoV faction. And I have a second primal rogue equally as geared, to fight with CoV faction for pvp. Solves all the issues, don't have to re faction every dozekar loot etc.

Calling BS on this bro. But w/e guess you must get faction faster than me.

Even though I been in groups where we are waiting for spawns, meaning we wiping giants out so fast we got to wait for them to spawn.

Took me 5-6 hours in these types of faction grinding groups and I was taking characters there that had zero faction hits one way or the other.

I don't know if its true that certain diety's start at a higher/less scowl rate or what not, but 2 hours to ally(NOT MAX ALLY) is not bullshit, its easily done. Respawn is about what 6 1/2 minutes 7 minutes max? there is approx 8 sentinels on the wall + 2 the at the entrance, there is i think 5 + surveyor in hut. Then there is 4 labourers + lieutenant, and i THINK 4 Escorts, 2 of the golden tox giants. thats roughly 26 giants every 6-7 minutes. Almost everything dies nearly instantly once everyone gets there hit in, the tox giants take a bit more work but they still die anywhere from 20-40 seconds since escorts can be assassinated.

[Sun Apr 16 14:01:36 2017] Wuoshi kindly considers you -- what would you like your tombstone to say?

obviously not <2hrs but that was on a level 44 mage which a necklace click put me just into warmly // and not keeping everything down quick enough, this ones a bit older and i was max ally by time I noticed and ran to wuoshi anyway for the con. so thats about 2hrs from amiable. It is not unreasonable to believe that mid/low scowl to amiable only takes about 45 minutes or ~10 waves of kills if you pull everything.

5-6 hours would be from max kos, with not getting every single hit especially the ones that apparently give larger hits ie lieutenant, surveyor/tox/tome/overseer on spawn or simply slow kill/pull.

There are three factions, Dwarf, Giant, and Dragon. Most (good) races start out somewhat cool with the dwarves, but not with the giants, while evil races start out the reverse. Dragons hate everyone at first. When you kill monsters of one faction it raises the other two factions (or sometimes only one). Because of this, you can never have more than two factions in Velious.

All three factions have a set of armor quests, and some people decide (for instance) "I'm going to be on Giant faction because I like their armor best". The problem is, if you decide that before raiding, then join a raiding guild, you basically have to adopt whatever faction(s) your guild has (and your guild might kill giants). So really I wouldn't worry about Velious faction until you start raiding, unless you need to for a quest (eg. if you're an Ogre who wants to do the Coldain Prayer Shawl quest you need to get some Dwarf faction even if you never plan to raid).

As for getting to Velious, catch a boat in Ro (I think South Ro) to Iceclad Ocean, or get a port there. You can't port to any other Velious destination though because you have to visit the "dragon circle" (druid rings/wizard spire) first on foot, and pickup a "tooth" for that circle on the ground. The tooth acts like a sort of key (a key that lets you port to that circle).

I think dwarves and giants are cool and dragons should be eradicated and at best be worn as decoration or used as carpets and fancy shoes. Is there a way I can be a giant and dwarfbro?

Sure, raise up Thurgadin faction to where you want it, then acquire dwarf heads (people sell them sometimes) or kobold paws and turn in lots of those until your Kael Drakkel faction rises to where you like. The wife's Shaman is positive faction with both dwarves and giants from utilizing this method.
