The more exp a monster grants you in a signet area when you have signet on, the more impact you will have on a zone's allegiance.

When I was on Odin a few years back, population was low enough that I could merit on Abraxas while restricting LP character to 75 to solo take Tavnazian Archipelago for Bastok. Usually I'd shift the bar by about 1/3rd over the course of a week, getting like 2k exp per kill on 2hrs or so of exp per night or something like that.

Kills without exp still count, but they're minimum influence.

Something you can compare it to, is the Outpost Trades that also affect zone allegiance. If you trade low level gear, like stone arrows, then it's minimal impact. If you trade high level gear, like kabura arrows, and trade them in bulk, you get more points.

It takes quite a lot either way to actually swing a zone.

Was Maletaru's hypothesys on the HQ* on new limbus gear confirmed or debunked?
He initially made an hypothesis where +2 comes from HQ3 instead of HQ2.

The null masque isn’t just the NA translation broken (yeah I know not a breaking news), the gear itself is broken.

Using checkparam <me> you can clearly see haste and DT doesn’t work.

It might be the second page of the gear, or just the bottom couple lines, just can’t tell as I don’t have clearly access to that but yeah at least those 2 stats

It comes from both HQ2 and HQ3. He wasn't meeting the subcraft requirement to be eligible for HQ2 on most of his synths, so he saw only HQ1s on those synths and interpreted it incorrectly.

Most of the gear will be relatively cheap now that the cat's out of the bag on that. HQ rates don't seem notably different from SU5 to me, and cost per synth is lower on many of them. The ones that use nio/ruth ingots are still gonna cost a pretty penny, especially ignorance and wrath bodies since they also use cores.

.. what?
