1) What's Pre-Searing?

2) My Guild Alliance has a total faction of 72M - is this good? What does a higher faction do/mean?

3) I'm really struggling to get to rank7 in sunspear, I need this rank to continue the game but i've finished all the quests avaliable to me - it keeps saying I have to speak to preists in the area but I've tried that to no avail - any help?

Thanks

1) Pre-Searing is an area in the Prophecies campaign/timeline, wich is where players start. When the Searing happens they're moved into the post-searing where the game continues.

2) Guess it's good. That just shows how many faction the alliance has wich if you don't have factions, doesn't mean a thing. Even if you do, it still won't mean anything.

3) Priests give you bounties, that when you kill an enemie of the bounty you got, you get sunspear points. They don't give any quests. Read the description of the bounty, it might help.

With high enough faction your alliance can 'own' an outpost providing access to cheaper merchants, firework sellers etc for alliance members.

The NPCs you need to talk to are the Sunspear Scouts that stand by every rez shrine in Istan. Each scout will give you a bounty for a particular kind of monster, such as insects or plants, and you will get Sunspear points for each monster of that type that you kill while under the bounty.

72 mil is a great fac raiting it means that you will own the second best town so you will nvr lose it if the luxons win a bunch in ab. owning a town is nice bec if you go there there is a section that only ppl who own towns can get to where there is a merchant that sells everything for 20% off
this means that you can buy lockpicks for 1.2k and small equipment packs for 2k

Pre-Searing is Prophecies start area. When you make a new character in Prophecies, you start in Pre-Searing.

The rest of the posts pretty much explain faction for ya. If you have alot, you can own a town that gives you discounts at the merchant. Otherwise, faction isn't really useful.

For your priests for bounty, you might be too high level to get that bounty in certain areas. Some areas stop giving you bounty after you reach a certain level. Meaning, move onto higher level areas. Or if you have completed Nightfall, vanquish some areas. Otherwise if you're in a low level area at level 20 or so, the Priests won't have a bounty offered for you.

the first two have been answered, but to help you out a bit with the sunspear title, it's easy getting rank 7 if you keep going outside of yohlon haven, talking to the priest at the shrine right outside and killing the bugs right outside. each run will get you about 100 pts and it only takes a couple minutes
