Exile Collective favor gain

[Starstruck]

The present method of gaining favor in the Exile Collective is largely done in an OOC fashion -- people dye random outfits but never wear them publicly. It'd be nice if this was changed to an automatic favor gain similar to WaW instead and the fountain was just used as flavor. Other alternative solutions or those that add additional benefits would be cool as well, but I understand why it's not desirable for there to be numerous methods of favor gain.

Whether or not it's specifically related to favor gain, I'd be a huge advocate for bringing back aberrant bounties for Collective members, or really anything to encourage the faction most interested in traversing the Lowerdark to actually do so.

Any other alternative favor gain methods would be cool to hear from other players.

I would think that this method of gaining favor would be frowned upon and that it was intended to reward PCs for wearing the fickle colors of the Exile Collective in favor of vanity. It's kind of their thing. The other subfactions of the EC have their own favor system and I think this is a cool way for PCs to show their membership with the general body of exiles when not wearing some of the other EC armors.

The system is not working as intended, yes. For instance you do not even need to dye anything to gain favor at the moment. You only need to click the fountain.
