Need help with going from max scowl to ally for Armor Quests

About a year ago, i stopped playing while at max scowling faction with giants (from raiding prison i believe). just before i stopped playing my shaman got a chain quest chest peice and also got 2 of the ornate gems. i want to say my shaman and my monk went about 3-4 days of clearing Great Divide caves (the cycle i go with clears 22 wyrms) with about 3 clearings a day. Then we stopped playing.

I just recently came back and saw that my shaman and i were at scowling. Since i've been back, i've done my cave cycle on maybe 7 seperate occasions. on those 7 days, i make it a point to do my cycle at least 4 times. that's 88 wyrms a day. that's 88x7=616 faction hits. I'm letting the shaman loot the scales (she's bagged about 40). however, we are both still at scowling.

Is it possible my faction is stuck (i know this happened on live from time to time)? Is there a better place to kill dragonkind for faction hits?
 
If I recall, they're quite small faction hits. Just keep plugging away, to go from max scowl to threatening does take quite some time.
 
Max scowl is a really really really deep pit. It takes literally forever to work your way out of it.
 
I have heard, and might be way off, that a representation of the scale of factions would be from -10,000 to 1,000, with zero being indifferent. (not real numbers or anything, just representation of the ammount of work it takes to get from max scowl to indiff as compared to indiff to ally.)
 
If you can, try to group in DHK or even tag along on a raid to get some hits on named mobs. I went from max KoS to Indifferent in about 2 days of raiding there. Also, since you can't go above indifferent by just killing, save all your scales until you are.
 
i'd love to hang in dhk and wait for a raid, but the 36 person raid limit has been preventing me from joining in on faction hits. if i hit the mob once, and i'm on it's hate list, someone else in the raid won't be included (can't heal, cast spells on creature etc).

am i missing (misinterpreting) something?

Who does DHK with 36 people, geez.
 
would it be accurate or close to accurate to say that each wyrm kill only results on +1 faction point? and if so, that it would take over 9000 kills to become indiff? (greater divide wyrms)

reason i'm asking is because my time could be better spent elsewhere (like finising up rivervale gate neck quest etc).

You'll still receive scales which will help once you do hit indifferent so it's not exactly a waste of time. Though just taking into account trying to get to indifferent, it is a big waste. Perhaps it might be a good idea to make a post in the guild section to ask if any guild that raids DHK might be willing to take you along?
