Since game inception, Horn and Hand faction leves have always been rather insignificant in relation to the other two factions, in that no NM's and no associated drops. Initially, on occasion, however, some very nice drops popped up that made these leves worthwhile. Since the last patch the rewards for Horn and Hand leves have been reduced to such items as hempen bowstring, iron nugget, undyned velveteen, etc.

The question I have of the developers is why? Do you think it appropriate that 100/200/300 hard earned faction points should be rewarded in such an insignificant way? You can't even get quild marks for these, as far as I know, and I say 'as far as I know', because I've been sitting on 1000 points now for months.

This faction, and the associated leves are so insignificant now, that you might just as well remove it/them entirely from the game. At least in doing so, we don't spend any more time accumulating TOTALLY worthless faction points in the place of the other two, pertinent factions.
