is zwar in englisch, aber ich habs für unsere Gilde mal zusammengefasst. vielleicht hilfts ja ein wenig
Vanguards new faction System
Vanguard introduced a new faction system with GU5. Basically every major town has its own faction progression. Your character signs up for a town and the longer you "work" for a city the better and the more rewards you get. You can sign up for any city with your character, but keep in mind, that you might have a hard time if you want to change your alliegance afterwards. You can repair your CITY Faction, but not your Citizen faction (more later)
What you get for good faction are various land mounts, level 50 armor, a permanent flying pegasus, etc. (see list at the bottom)
Important Things:
Faction Types
there are 2 different kinds of faction for every city.
1. City Faction (determines if you are KOS or not). This is the faction that the NPCs in a town are on. It is the faction that you can influence by work orders, diplomacy and killing mobs that give you faction.
2. Citizen Faction (determines which rewards you are entitled to in a city, has nothing to do with KOS)under 1000 Citizen Faction you dont even see a reward. This faction can only be influenced using faction coins.
Coins that you trade in however do influence both factions, city faction AND citizen faction, which is the reason that you get KOS with certain cities. (see list in the bottom)
if you get KOS you can repair your CITY faction (and get non KOS again) by killing mobs in newbie areas/dungeons or in general by mobs that give faction with the city that you are KOS with. (i.e. every newbie zone has a dungeon, mobs in there give faction for the city the newbie zone is attached to.
Keep in mind, that if you ONESHOT the mobs they wont give faction, so let yourself get hit!!!
Faction Coins:
we are not talking about money coins. we are talking about faction coins. They are called i.e. "a gold coin of Martok" (if you are on Martok faction). You get the coins by killing mobs that give you XP. This is random, so any mob that gives you XP has a small chance to drop a coin for you.
you do not loot those coins, they get automatically added into your inventory. These coins you trade in for CITIZEN FACTION.
Copper = 2 faction
Silver = 10 faction
Gold = 100 faction
Gold Coins drop off mobs level 30 or higher.
you can change coins into the next quality. I dont know the exact conversion rate, but I think its 20 gold coins for 1 plat coin or so.
Platinium Coins
those are the coins needed for all of the rewards. You get them by killing certain boss mobs (see list at the end of the post)who have CAPS NAMES like VELZETHOK or BAELTHON. Again those mobs have to give XP for your character if you want the plat coins.
General:
+ following level 10 you can sign up for cities. you do so by visiting the city faction registrar (usually next to or near the diplomacy trainer)
he gives you a diplomacy necklace (which is also a nice diplo item as it has cool diplo stats). as soon as you equip the necklace mobs will start to drop coins.
here is a list with stuff that you currently get for your plat coins based on citizen faction.
Mounts:
(Level 30) = 1000 faction + 50 Platinum
(Level 50) = 18000 faction + 150 Platinum (100 if you have the level 30 mount)
Flying Mount:
(Level 50)Pegasus = 18000 faction + 450 Platinum
Armor:
Arms = 1000 Faction + 1 Mold
Shoulders = 3000 Faction + 2 Molds
Wrist = 3000 Faction + 2 Molds
Waist = 5000 Faction + 2 Molds
Hands = 5000 Faction + 2 Molds
Head = 8000 Faction + 3 Molds
Feet = 8000 Faction + 3 Molds
Legs = 9000 Faction + 4 Molds
Chest = 11000 Faction + 4 Molds
