I was there during the faction war/temple building

Im simply suggesting that they do bring it back. I have loads of points left from many kills. Im just suggesting, on the wrong thread of course, that it would be nice for some of the newer players. I wasn't meaning tie that into killing the temple guards

But I do know what you mean. sorry to get off topic again.

The mechanisms (honor points, temple people-who-hand-stuff-out, whatever ) exist and have been used already, it shouldn't be too much work to reactivate them. GF would need to come up with another event, but they have a framework they could hang it on. It doesnt make sense to implement something like that and then only ever use it once.
The complaints about the Temple event were mostly balance related.. no reward for careplanning or guarding diggers - along with the usual conflicting playstyles issues.
If GF do another event similar to the Temples, they still need to cater for the neutrals, I didnt have any complaint with sides being determined by actual Fame instead of declared faction
who derailed this thread anyway

Lexius it is possible to spend your Kami honor points. I had ex Kami guildies who ran in invulnerable and out and use their honor points. They did it with 2 ppl in case a rez was needed on exit.-Kil

they also need to make it serious offence (it's temple guards after all), so that every npc who is pro kami, will start to hate you (that includes zorai and fyros races).... and they need to +make fame reward smaller and -fame reward bigger. (so it actually takes few "session" to get you fame and not just 30min.
i'm sure you dont agree with me, but fame should be taken seriously and not treated like socks you change every day.
I pretty much agree; if they choose to re-enable the killing of the guards they might as well incorporate it into 'being factioned' and make it have both benefits as well as a downside. Scaling of the fame rewards/losses would need to get looked into so that the feature doesn't become an easy way to 'win' compared to the missions already available.
Now if they're changing those temple guards they may just as well change it so patrols of tribes that hate you attack on sight and hunt you down. Because right now there's pretty much no point at all to patrols (or not nearly enough for tribal fame) but looking pretty.
