Factions –

There are 3 Factions currently – Marauders, Syndicate and Covenant.

The Marauders are a ruthless military force hell-bent on establishing a free nation where anyone with the strength to do so can prosper and profit.

The Syndicate are a secretive organisation of boundless guile and intellect in search of forbidden knowledge to usher in a new age of enlightenment.

The Covenant is a divine order charged with cleansing the land of heretics and defilers so that its true holy nature and justice can be restored.

Now you need to be careful when picking a faction because if you choose differently to your friends then you’ll have to wait 120 days in order to change it. Make sure that you’ve confirmed with your friends the faction you wish to play. Remember this will also affect your company because you need to be in the same faction to be in the same company. If you choose wrong, you’ll have to restart the whole character and starting section. Or you wait 120 days and just play it out, which we don’t recommend (just restart or don’t mess up😉).

You’ll still be able to party up with members from another faction, this will be helpful when you need to complete the main quests and kill the main bosses and get kill credit.

Your faction should look to control as much of the map as possible as this will give you minor buffs in the territory such as more luck, gathering more resources and PvE is more effective because you’ll do more damage to mobs.

After you’ve picked your faction and started on the faction missions, you’ll earn tokens which you can spend in the faction shop, here we recommend spending your tokens on the faction gear and if you have extra then spend them on weapons that could give you a better advantage against other PvP players. Use them tokens don’t waste your time doing faction missions and not gain your rewards from it! On the topic of Faction missions make sure you take all of them because it will save you time when you go to complete them. Don’t do them one at a time, stack them!

Remember take your time and don’t rush picking your faction as you could have to restart the game which no one wants as you’ll more than likely must sit in the queue again!
