Wardship of the Sleeping Moon, quest requires 12000 full faction.
Albeit I think the summon is currently bugged (you get red items where you are supposed to recieved orange) they are range 5-30 (and damage 1252-1252 ;p but irrelevant since throwing dosen't take weapon into calculation anyhow - but you could pretty much outdamage any ranger on distance fight if they did!).
Summons 50 per click, 10 minute cooldown. They are soulbound and thus stay with you if you die - and are pretty much the ideal weapon.
Enjoy factioning!

In Warship of the Sleeping Moon (south east thestra). We went there at ~30 (and since it would pop in patch messages first a few weeks later, we were totally alone there, something you wont be anymore) and started grinding dogs for factioning. Although, I would pretty much recommend 32+ now since you can do a lot more of the quests then once you get your factioning up - although the most efficent trick is to do the 'More foes of the Sleeping Moon' repeatable quest (100 kills) as much as possible before it turns into 'Even more foes of the Sleeping Moon' which is same amout of kills, but 250 faction compared to 500 of the older. Since dungeon faction hits are upped, if you have a stable group that can live in the dungeons, you can ignore this and just grind up to 2000 full faction (or 500-600 when you get 3 new quests in Recondlite stronghold (troll knuckles bugged though since a few patches back when it was upped to 12 but mobs cease droping after 8 )).
At 2000 you'll start getting the dungeon quests, the VT line is pretty straight forward, the Lair of the Drake Raiders opens up once you finish the Find XXX (who's in the lair) back in Wardship. They give quite decent hits (some are weak though) - but again, with the new increase of faction in dungeons, you will get a decent chunk of hits.
On top of this, there's a plentitude of swords hidden in Ruins of Vol Tuniel and Thelaseen that gives 20-200 faction by clicking them (can click a single sword only once) - pretty easy to get as monk with FD once you find them.
Slaughtering senseless amout of blood howlers in trio at early 30'ies was really good xp - I'm not sure how it is now as we were alone in the zone.
By doing most of this and working your faction, you'll also get access to various armours (monk is +strength, +dexterity and +hitpoints in general). Save candles, runes and books you find, along with the ancient armour pieces (you'll recieve the final combine as your faction increase). The quest should be finishable by 35, less if you have higherleveled friends.

Do you have to have a certain level of faction to get the quests? The only quest I can get right now is more foes of sleeping moon and I am lvl34. Did the first recondite quest, but did not get a follow up. Where is the dungeon and how do I get a quest for the dungeon?

yeah you need a buttload of faction for the final item but you can get stuff at different levels of faction... starts at about 4000 i believe the foes quest is for 50 mobs and gives 250 faction and the more foes which is repeatable is for 100 mobs that gives 500 faction... couple hours of group work will get you 4k easy

Heroic: 1250ish damage. +1% critrate
Legendary:1469 damage.
Both are 5-30 range.
There's rumours about the upgraded versions getting some fancy special effects when there's time over to review them again - but without a working throwing damage system it's simply not worth the amazing timesink that is upgrading until then; but if you're grinding up in the area and get over the pieces - go for it. With the removal of candles from TLC, you could always just farm the upgrade on a slow day when you're 50 otherwise.

So if I'm an Orc I pretty much can kiss this goodbye then?
I'm not quite sure how faction works. When I do /showfaction I get -5000+ with most all places "actual faction" or whatever it's called, but then I have like 200 "dynamic faction" for a lot of places like the Wardship and Khal (after I grinded faction a little bit). Do I have to get 12000 in dynamic (the amount of faction I see listed when I kill mobs) or grind up the -8000 or so it says I have with the wardship, and then an extra 12000?
