Nope, no faction hits. :)

Initiates do assist each other, but there are places with static spawns that are widely spaced (like the castle steps) and easy to single out. To work the steps, you'll need snare, or pull them down and off to the sides; else when they flee they'll cause adds. Unsnared, they flee at a walk, but when I was soloing they could walk a long ways sometimes.

Caution: if you are working the outside of the castle it might be best to stick to the stairs. There is a...porch?...that runs along the outside of the castle but there are real problems pulling there. Soloing there, I pulled one, and since the wall is curved, it came hugging the wall...and caused multiple adds from INSIDE...cheesy. That's a bug if you ask me; aggro thru thick stone walls shouldn't happen, and I haven't seen it happen elsewhere. Imagine how bad that would be in Blackburrow hehe.

I heard the aggro message but didn't realize the full import. Looked around, saw nothing, shrugged...figured a group was inside. It took the add a good 45 seconds to run through all the rooms to the exit, bringing an INCREDIBLE train to trap me on the porch and erase me. This was a huge motivation to get the run speed AA's.

So, careful fighting on the porch.

Killing the 6 initiates on the stairway, you'll net around 100 plat an hour, mainly from the occasional gem drops...plus all the shivs you can carry, hehe. Handy for pet classes, but they sell for a measly 7 silver.

It's nice to solo here until you're 54 and they go light blue. So I'm not sure 45 is their correct level.
