The Path to Revelations for Norn
Snowmen for Dwarven.
What about Asura and Vanguard?
Does anyone have any math that says which spots give the most points per minute? Any quests for the N and V areas I could use for extra points?
What are the most efficient places to farm for all four factions?
EDIT: I corrected some things that may make below posts confusing.

The Path to Revelations is more to farm norn if i'm not wrong, since the bosses are all in norn territory and you rack up reputation from killing all the non-quest bosses in the area while killing the quest bosses.
otherwise, the asuran and vanguard places are pretty much the same i would imagine. magus stones and dalada + sacnoth. farming vanguard is still going to be painful.

Whoops. My mistake. Then what quest spawns bosses in Asura territory?

I farm a lot of norn points in Draakar's Lake. I can usually make over 250 kills in that area. I haven't found the Path to Revelations however so I'll check wiki and see if I can unlock that place before the weekend.

Heh, Heh, the bunny cave.. the first time I followed the little bunny in there, I was shocked and then laughed my ass off, you gotta give credit to Anet for coming up with some pretty off-the-wall stuff....

I got around 2,000 points or so in the area outside Vlox's Falls the other day and got my Asura r4. I'll stay there to reach r5.

And how fast did you run a ranger with Charm Animal to the same location just hoping for a bunny pet
One place I will try for a little while is
.
Magnus Stones - it will be boring but possible to zone in and out of Arachni's Haunt and kill Ashlyn Spiderfriend over and over and over

magus stones gives high 3k-5k per 1 hr run.
bring along essence of celerity and it'll go faster. then again ur one rank away.

vanguard is the easiest with all the bosses in sacnoth plus devourer fun!

Well wich zone gives you the 40 or so desteroyers attacking? Wait till you got rank 4 hunter and thats 200 or so points plus boss, not counting what ever else is in the zone.

I think you must be referring to the "O Brave New World" quest that Blorf in Vlox's Falls will offer after completing the Elusive Golemancer mission. That quest is not repeatable.
But why go for something as tough as destroyers if there is no special benefit for killing them? Dealing with the 35+ lvl 15 raptor nestlings plus boss right outside Rata Sum will yield exactly the same amount of rep.

Not much... 'specificness' in these posts. >> I'm too used to wiki telling me the hourly points.

Is that worth it?
ReZDoGG
With Path to Revelations active, you can get up to 10k in one hour farming Varajah Fells. First time I farmed the area with that boss quest active, everything went perfect and I ended up goin from 19k to 29k in an hour. So with double point weekend, you will beable to get up to 20k norn points in that same amount of time... can get lvl 8 norn title in no time. For Asuran points, Magnus Stones is best place I found... can get 4-6k points in an hour, meaning you can get over 10-12k in same time this weekend. And of course what they said, Snowman dungeon would be best for Dwarven. And for Vanguard, Dalada Uplands is easiest to farm with Devourer... mostly because there are alot of char groups that are tight together, and can almost kill them all in one shot with Devourer... can get around 3-4k in under an hour.
Memento Mori
I'm definitely just keeping myself to Dalada Uplands for my vanguard points this weekend. There isn't much competition to the devourer.
I have not tried the Path of Revelations farm, but for 10k points an hour I will definitely be taking a look into it. Most of hte top spots have been stated already in the thread.
Vanguard-Dalada/Sacnoth
Asura-Path of Revelations run
Dwarven-Snowman Dungeon

Dwarven-Snowman Dungeon I didn't edit it out of my first post, but Path is for Norn, not Asura, although it's an Asuran quest.

Yeah, is a looong asuran quest. It's kind of a pain in the ass to do all them quest to get the "Path to Revelations" quest. You have to do all these boss searching quest, which there is like 6 I think... but in the end its well worth it to get hella Norn points. Make sure you kill enough enemies in the area to get 300 points for killin a boss, then when you get Rampage, try to keep it on until you get to those 7 bosses that spawn in a row. You will get 600 a boss, so in the end you get 4200 points for those bosses alone...

I don't think those nestling count toward rep points do they? I tried them a couple weeks ago and only got credit for the broodmother in the cave. If I remember correctly, the same was true for the enemies in the rabbit cave???

Any kill counts. This applies to nestlings as well as rabbit cave inmates or low-level snowmen or low-level spiders (Arachni's Haunt).

And I quote:
"Note: Creature killed must give XP to be counted. Therefore, summoned creatures, animals, resurrected enemies, and creatures under level 15 do not count."

Ah - now i remember.
It was not the hatchlings I wasn't getting credit for - it was the lvl 14 spiders in Magus Stones.

0 exp still counts I believe.

The small spiders are worthless 
Anyway i think the best strategy is running around killing enemys (at least 100) and when you get the frenzy bonus (the one with douple points per kill) try to reach and kill some bosses. You might get 500 or even more points for one boss this way.
The only problem is how to reach the boss without losing the frenzy bonus if you have already killed most of the enemies in the area.
If someone else has a good strategy to maximize the points earned please post

It is anything level 15 or higher counts for points (so the little spiders in Magnus do not count) Not sure on the rabbit area but I think they are level 15 and higher.

Still looking for an alternative for Asura points... Magus Stones seems to be the best, but I cannot stand killing Krait over and over again. They are just as bad as the bugs in dalada feeling the need to just randomly respawn with their little metamorphosis. ugh.
I went out to vanquish riven earth twice yesterday, but found this to be a bad place. Both times I got 1-2k points Just not many baddies, and hard to keep rampage up due to the erratic paths from group to group.
I have a feeling a crapload of snowmen are going to die this weekend

MrSlayer
I craft Essence of Celebrity and farm Magus Stones for Asura. 45 minute run for 3-5k Asura xD

1.5k? 15k? Huh?
I'm going to be doing that quest in hard mode later on. Just going to vanquish the entire area while I'm at it

thats exactly how you farm rep, vanquish every single area, im guessing that can get you from 25-100k for every peoples (norn, asura vangaurd and dwarvs) depending on if oyu have quests etc etc.
gmonster2
Best i found is magus stones getting 12-13k per run..killed 390 ish and got the vanquished on hard mode...
Biggest one point hall was a boss for 1510 points had max rank and boss bounty(now 10 mins making it easier to run to them) on.. 450(rank) + 300(boss bounty) doubled(weekend special) and 10?
Leave some of the boss groups till u have max rank or next to max rank..and come back to them its worth it..
Start off kill all the windriders to the right (15) then go clockwise thru the spiders tunnel getting to the next shrine with 50 killsthen keep going clockwise...
Using necro mm jagged bones and 2 fire nuker eles ,anyone got any other good builds?)
138k asura and counting...
