I have no idea what happened during the patch, but I was attacked by Newport Guards immediately upon being TLed to my bind spot in the SNP bank. I found after landing in the Badlands (thanks, Aarielly) that I was KoS to the guards in the tower there as well. Am I going to have to work on advancing faction for no obvious reason? If so, where do I need to start? I'm a little confused, please advise. :eek:

No, sir! I had just been TLed over from SG. No illusions to speak of. Even Mask of the Hunter had worn off, if I recall.
 
As an iksar necro, not using a skeleton illusion spell, I'm now KoS to newport guards as well. I am 100% sure I didn't change my faction - I was fine there as of yesterday, and logged on today for the first time since then, did nothing but get a port to NBL, run to SBL, and the bridge guards aggro'd me.
 
Good to know I'm not alone in this. :p
Anyways... I'm going to bed. Just wanted to make a post to bring it to the attention of the powers that be. Thanks for the prompt response, Wiz.
 
I'm KOS too! I haven't played in about a couple of nights and I automatically became KOS from indifferent in Newport. ;(
 
Hmm, you really shouldn't be KOS unless you've hurt your faction earlier. Especially as a druid. I'll look it over.

EDIT: Okay, yeah, Iksar/Troll necros/SKs were incorrectly tagged as KOS, I'm fixing this, but the "I am a druid and went KOS" makes zero sense.
 
From what I can see, everyone (or almost everyone?) went down in newport faction.

Aarielly went from ally to warmly.
Buppwin, Joudaro, and Nako went from Dubious to KoS.

Mycroft was, and still is ally.

Not sure if any of this helps at all.

Yeah, Newport Faction was given a major adjustment, but noone is supposed to be KOS to guards/citizens unless they killed people.
 
Not sure if this was already fixed for other but for some reason I am now KOS to the guards of most of the cities I tried to visit (Steamfront, Newport and Mistwoods) in an attempt to go to the bank. I'm a hafling Druid and I definitely haven't done anything to them to lower my faction. Unless somehow hunting Island Giants would lower it...
 
I found a MAJOR bug in faction, I'll patch it very soon. Should fix these KOS issues.

Keep getting a mental picture of Dale Dribble from King of the Hill and wondering if Wiz would drive a "Bugabego" van too! (Do not know if you guys get that show in Europe but it is funny, from Beavis and Butthead creator)

Yeah, I went from Threatening to Scowling with Nport (got to threatening as an Iksar Necro by doing the evil main quest) and worse, from Amiable to Indiferent with the sewer crew.
 
So what happens if an enchanter decides he/she is feeling frisky and just starts turning people into things that newport no longer tolerates?

Illusions are group-only. Don't group with an enchanter you don't trust in town. ;)

I dont trust chanters period!
 
I've been KoS in newport for a while. Was my own fault though. The grobb neck plus the 'accidental' killing of a guard (ok, ok, I didn't know they were such damn pansies, and I got 'lucky' on the RNG for a big assed double attack) pretty much did me in there. I haven't found it too hard to deal with, since they can't really kill me, but lower level toons would for sure have problems.
Glad to see your faction is going to get fixed.
