Hi. My faction char gain up to 1942 promotional points and are still a few hunders shy from the rank of general. I can't find any more quests to do to get there. Guildwiki is out so any quest guide available?

Take the bounties from every scout you see in the EA's.

EA = Explorable Area. Have you ever talked to those wandering priests at the shrines?

First time you ever left Kamadan there was a scout at a shrine with an excalmation point above him. He explained what they do.

If you got that far on quests alone, let me be the first to say congrats, I didn't think it was possible. But judging from the fact that you have a non-multiple of 5 points, I'm guessing you didn't do it all on quests.

On the island, once you get to a certain level or have a certain amount of sunspear points. . .they don't seem to give you the bounty. Got to Commander pretty darn quick with the bounty though

With my Warrior, I tried to kill as many things with the bounty before I accepted rewards for the quests. Worked pretty well especially just outside Kamadan where those things are so easy to kill. I also did it around Halloween and quite a few sentient roots too

I think the bounties outside Kamadan expire around level 8 or 9 with the exception of the Scale bounty so either head to the cliffs or zehlon reach for the early farming.
