    Faction change

    If i have the Acidic Bloods for The Sacred and the Corrupt quest (http://www.wowhead.com/quest=24545) and i want to faction change will i loose my bloods when i change over? they don't show as quest items, but they are for the quest...i have faction changed once before and know i lose the Light's Vengeance item upon changing.

    Anyone know for certain?

    bump...i have checked the FAQ about Faction Changes and it still leaves the question for me. I understand quest items, but i am wondering if the bloods are considered quest items or just a rare item and is safe for transfer.

    When I had my 2 bloods and went from orc to tauren I got to keep the bloods. Assuming action change and race change are the same (wiping out the quest logs) I'd say it's safe to faction change.

    This seems like a bad idea. A better idea would be to ticket BEFORE you make a faction change and talk to a GM about it. Screenshot the conversation with the GM and if he tells you it's safe and you won't lose them, go ahead and faction change. If you did lose them, now you have the screenshots from the GM saying you wouldn't, and you can file another ticket and show him those screenshots saying you wouldn't lose them.

    i like this idea. i have posted this on the Warcraft Forums as well, hoping for a definitive answer. Will try this if i get nothing else.

    Thanks for the feedback so far. If anyone has Faction Changed while doing this quest with the bloods in your inventory and kept them or even lost them, this would be helpful info. Thanks again.

    funny thing about this question/thread is i posted the same thing over on warcraft forums and have gotten 560ppl to view here and more helpful info or ideas here than i did on the warcraft forums. Not even a Blue response or any idea as helpful as the info here.

    lol, i did get a Green post(MVP) response telling me that there are often lulls in times when players or Blues are available to post responses or that it may take time to research the question...i guess that's helpful.

    The bloods are a boss drop. They drop even if nobody can use them. Meaning you are safe to X-fer with them.

    In other words, yes you get to keep the bloods but you have to re-obtain Light's vengeance.
