Factions Enemy: I think I found something

Take me where I cannot stand.

The Better Part of Valor

I just noticed something while I was doing the Advertisement Quests for factions in North Kryta Provence. I was gaining faction with the Kurzicks and I wanted to check how much faction I had. So I went to the Character Attribute Screen and went to the Faction Tab. There it had the faction bars that tell you how much faction you have with each group.

Here's what I noticed. Next to each faction bar, there is a symbol representing that group. Next to the Luxon faction bar, the symbol looks familiar. It's the same symbol that appeared burnt into the ground at the end of the Factions Cinematic Trailer, right as the narrator was saying, "Evil has returned."

Does this mean the Luxons are going to be associated with the bad guys in Factions? Has this already been discussed somewhere else? Has anyone else noticed this?

It could just mean that the cinematic was from a Kurzick PoV.

Err, how do you see that huge scorchmark on the end of the cinematic in those little pictures?

Kurzick's looks like a leaf - Petrified Forest
I'd say Luxons looks kind of like a Flame...

Anyone got a screenshot of the scorchmark? I remember it but I don't ahve a pic of it...

The scorchmark looks like a neat paw print, the luxon symbol looks more like an open flame. They dont really look the same upon closer inspection.

Uh I dont see how that looks like it. If anything it looks like the head of the Dragon thing (Kuuvang or something) and NOT a flame.

I noticed that too when playing in FPE but taking a closer look Luxon symbol is little bit different.

My assumptions are heading to a different direction: The "enemy" will be this assassin shown in the trailer; and the kurzicks and luxons will have to team up against this evil guy. That will be fun.

If you played the PvE enough during the preview, you'd have found out that the Afflicted are the new enemy that the Luxons and Kurzicks need to team up to defeat.

Thanks for the spoiler, Ensign! I mean, I can't read a thread about Factions Enemies without finding out who the enemies are?!?

the ( Kurzicks ) petrified forest has a pretty "dark and evil" atmosphere
the ( Luxon ) jaded sea has a pretty "bright and good" atmosphere

but like Ensign said, they need to co-op
