1k faction = 1k gold sounds better

I will assume you do not PVP at all. 500-1K faction is nothing. 1K faction is nothing. If you want a lottery that people will want to enter, they probably want gold items and superior runes...

/Signed for 1,000 factions to be redeemable into 1,000 gold
/Signed for 100 factions to be used as Guild Invite / Guild Guest Invite

Proposal:
Allow factions to be redeemable for PvP Items that are customized for the character who redeemed the item with factions. Items redeemed via factions like this cannot be sold for gold or be salvaged for materials, such factions redeemed items can only be used by the character who redeemed them.

Example:
John Thomas uses 2,000 factions to redeem a 10/10 Sundering Sword Weapon Upgrade.
This Weapon Upgrade can only be usable by John Thomas.
If John Thomas uses this Sword Weapon Upgrade on a sword that is yet to be customized for John Thomas, that sword will automatically be customized for John Thomas.
This Sword Weapon Ugrade cannot work on swords that are already customized by other characters other than John Thomas.

With this suggestion / proposal, perhaps make it such that 'rare' weapon upgrades are available?
My definition of 'rare' items:
Shields with non standard modifiers:
i.e:
20% +1 Tactics
20% +1 Strength

Weapon Upgrades +20% vs certain monsters
Staff Upgrades 20% +1 (Insert Skill Name Here)

With this proposal / suggestion, PvE only players who used up their 4 character slots could make put their factions to use.

/Signed for my own proposal / suggestion

Another Proposal / Suggestion:
Remove the 10,000 faction limit
-OR-
Allow players to use 10,000 factions to increase the faction limit of 10,000
For example:
Use 10,000 factions to increase the faction limit of 10,000 to 20,000

If saving skill points is just fine to them, let use convert our faction into skill points.

I unlocked everything a month ago, in an environment much harder to do so. Now I should get nothing with faction being given out 10X as quickly?

That's crap.

It's not like we're going out of our way to 'farm' faction either, we're just doing the pvp. But if other people are getting something from it, so should we.

Best argument for this suggestion.

If the future expansions are going to introduce new skills, then something has to be done about the faction limit for hardcore PvP players. I'm fairly confident I can get 1 skill point a lot faster than someone could get enough faction to unlock a new skill. Also considering that I can get 300% extra experience with a Scroll of Berserker's Insight, I'd like to see a PvPer keep pace with me in terms of unlocking skills. Let's ALSO take into consideration that I have the chance to unlock new mods for weapons and runes just by doing my normal farming routine.

would be nice to be able to get SOMETHING for faction once you've hit UAS.

gold, dyes, skill points to save up for the next expansion, just something.

/signed for greens/ales. There should be a sizeable amount of faction, not just 1k.
