Dawntribe Orc faction

[Snotgrubb]

Is it possible to put in another way to increase Dawntribe Orc faction besides farming low level orcs for darksun headbands?

I've hunted desert orcs for exp as long as I could and I'm not even close to ally faction. That means green farming time. Best way to do that is bring in my highest level toon and lay waste to a zone(s).

The Tarhyl's and Oasis are basically low level hunting areas. I really don't want to impede on any low level hunting by engaging in a mass slaughter of orcs. I was on the other side of that coin in Blackburrow and its no fun when you can't find anything to kill because high levels are hunting for faction.

I suggest replacing most of the orcs in North Tarhyl with much higher level orcs. (leave Sundancer and the War priest camps as is). Replace the derv 1, 2, 3 orcs with corrupted desert orcs avengers/fanatics that will be blue/light blue to a 65. Add +Dawntribe faction per kill or up the headband drop rate to compensate for the slower kill rate. This will give the high levels a spot to hunt for faction. The derv camps aren't really needed for low levels anyway as they are basically the same level orcs as in the oasis camps.

This is supposed to be a serious time sink due to the exceptional end reward.

It's not the length of the timesink I'm suggesting you change but rather the timesink activity.

I spent some hours last night in South Tarlyhl working on this faction. It only takes a blink of an eye to wipe out each orc camp and I'm off to the next one. While I tried to keep an eye out for lowbies hunting, I don't have eyes in the back of my head and any low levels who wandered in after me would have just found empty orc camps and probably left before I even saw them.

To me it's the same problem as Blackburrow, I'd love to see another option for raising this faction that doesn't require me to disrupt low level hunting zones.
