I've been looking over the update notes, and trying to make my way through the forums, but after wanting to gouge my eyes out from reading I decided to just go ahead and ask the question I had.
What is the faction cap for the Normal Mode books turned in from the Factions and Nightfall Campaigns? That may of not been clear enough for some so in other words, will the NPC's stop accepting a Normal Mode book after you've reached the point in the title you can only gain points in Hard Mode for the Sunspear and Lightbringer titles, and where or is there a cap for normal mode books for the Luxon and Kurzick titles?

You will stop gaining Sunspear and Lightbringer titles at the same rank you stop receiving the bonus in NM from the guys by the rez shrines. As for the NM cap for Luxon and Kurzick, I'm not entirely sure, I don't think there is a cap on those.

I looked closer and my tendancy to miss stuff hit me, like the poster above said Sunspear is at Rank 8, but Lightbringer is at rank 5 in the title. So the only question left is on Kurzick/Luxon books.

I'm r10 Kurzick and I still can get both NM and HM books. Having a cap to appear on the way for the last rank only would make no sense IMO, so I assume there's no cap on those.

okay question:

My main char has already reached the r8 SS and r5 LB ranks, so I can only gain from HM.

Does that mean when I log in tonight, I WON'T get ANY points for all those quests I did, and that the update notes stated you would get retroactively?

I'm beginning to fear that I won't get sh*t when I log in, except perhaps some faction (of which I can only spend 1 side )

You'll get it, don't worry.

No, you won't get any points for the quests/missions you did before the update. Quests/missions you do after the update, work the same as EotN books, which is what the update notes was referring to.

You're right, you'll only get some faction and some titles will go account wide. But, there is nothing to fear - you are not losing anything, you are gaining new ways to get faction, if you still need/want it.

But have you tried to turn a NM book in? I can recieve normal books for all the GW:EN titles but i can't turn them in due to being over the max level required.
