Unfortunatly, Lake Austin has no faction activity at this time
. There's an occasional few but with EA taking a look at faction bugs etc, there might be a rise in it. Some of the new changes will be
Faction Vendors no longer block Faction Guards or players
Fixed an issue with Sigils getting stuck in the incorrect state and requiring a server restart before corruption could resume
Faction abbreviations will show in the player's onscreen name in Felucca (works with All Names)
[Min] Minax
[CoM] Council of Mages
[TB] True Britannians
[SL] Shadowlords
Red faction members/enemy guild members now con orange to an opposing guild or faction
Fixed a bug where logging out in Sanctuary caused loss of titles and kill points
Fixed the faction crafting menu. Players who craft items in a town they control, in the proper shop, will receive the faction enhancement menu after successfully creating an item.
Non-faction guilds that are part of an alliance can no longer join a faction without first leaving their alliance.
There aren't many hot pvp spots, just Yew gate, from time to time you can stealth around despise spawn area and see a fight. In the mornings its usually quiet but ocassionaly there will be a fight or two. I havn't heard about warring guild's being able to pvp in Mala's or Ilishner but maybe?
