3000 Reputation points per hour

Getting 3000 points of any of the four reptations is easy by just doing three quests in the hard mode book and turning it in. You get five filled in with a new book and by doing three more you can turn it in for 3000 points to any of the four reputation npc's. I do Curse of the Nornbear, then G.O.L.E.M and lastly Against the Charr.
I am a Dervish and use SAP'S 3 Necro/Ritualist hero builds which is found in this forum. I also use 2 monks, one earth and one fire elementalist henches.
The Nornbear is always in the same spot the three times you fight him and once you learn them it is really fast.
The G.O.L.E.M quest is tricky but I immediately take the entire party to the east side and after killing two destroyers I flag two necro/rit heros there and take the remaining party as fast as I can to the other side. The necros i flag are the ones with Jagged Bones and the other with Weapon of Remedy. They easily hold off the destroyers while I run back and forth.
For Against the Charr I just go straight for the end Boss and do nothing to weaken the garrison. Fridgid Armor helps as many Fire dealing Charrs.
I do two runs a day and 6000 points adds up pretty fast. I hope you find this helpfull as killing one monster at 2 points apiece means killing 3000 of them to get the same rep points. See you in the game.

actually, with shrine, boss, and hunt bonuses, you never have to kill 3000 monsters to get 6000 points, I think its actually faster to get points by killing monsters because you could probably get 6000 in an hour and a half, making it about 9000 every 2 hours

It's very possible to yield 4500 points in an hour, depending upon bonuses.

Norn example:
151 kills in Varajar Fells in HM and killing the 6 bosses for Path to Revelations alone yields at least 1951 points without going to more than the initial shrine, not killing any other bosses in the area and failing to receive any bumps through random blessings. Add on the Random blessings such as Hunt Rampage, Hunt Point Bonus and Timed Attack.

Dwarf:
Secret Lair of Snowmen...

Asura:
Vanquishing Magus Stones in HM.

The OP is right about quest books being faster than farming areas for rep. Trouble is he is doing the wrong quests.

Nornbear yep good 1, 10 mins in and out.

That last quest wtf is it called again? Anyway killing the 'great' destroyer, with the right HH set up 5 mins. A time for heroes...i remember now

The last 1 I think I agree the quickest is Against the Charr, just ignore all optionals and run straight to the 'full strength' garrison. Should clear that in 10-15 mins.

Finding the Bloodstone is also quick and easy. Sometimes I do that one instead, sometimes I do both.

So 6000+ rep per hour.

I haven't found any areas that are quick and easy enough to guarantee that much. Vanquishing areas the most I have seen is 5-6K but that takes 1 and a half hours or more.

Mind you the 'random' bonuses do hate me. I have reached 200 kills and spoken to every shrine guy and still been on rank 1 before now :/ .

That is a great idea!

Also, I have seen many who will run "A time for heroes" in HM for a few K so if you have trouble with it you can just hire a runner for that one.

I would have to say that if you have the right builds, farming is much much faster, but if you don't want to take the time in working those out, then filling out quests books would be your best option

i did this backwards in normal mode. i farmed all those points by killing things, then i did the dungeons, which got me a few points over the max (8), since i knew hard mode needed to be released. i nearly pulled my hair out it was very tedious...

but if you get them all up to 8, then do all hard mode dungeons and quests FIRST, you will have 9 assuredly in all reps...i did, and did no additional rep farming in-between. so i assume this is average.

THEN get both book rewards--turn them in to either lowest # or least favored rep farming spots, it shouldn't be much of a hassle. 2 titles get knocked out in 1 sitting, then you have 2 others to farm up, in my case i needed 13k for vanguard and roughly 22k for dwarf, so hands down, asura and norn got the books turned in (how bad can sacnoth valley really be, anyway...all the charr...gimme a challenge on my way out of rep farming! ).
i pounded the junk out of asura and norn in normal, and was tired of it, so these were definite "no's" when the time came to turning in books...

that is, if you are going for legendary master of the north and (10) in all reps and plan on filling every page of dungeon/quest to get the max reward from them.

it might not be the BEST way to do rep title maxing, but it is a way nonetheless. nice, profitable way. think of all the money you can get from turning in both books in 1 min. exciting!

happy rep farming everyone!

edit: 2nd paragraph-line-type words: i vanquished all areas while i was doing dungeons...not really considered rep farming, but that is a lot of points.

I Recently maxed out Ebon Vanguard, and I concur with the "fill in a few pages of the book" strategy.

Even in Hard Mode I consider the following quests pretty quick to complete:Curse of the Nornbear A Gate Too Far Finding the Bloodstone The Elusive Golemancer G.O.L.E.M. A Time for Heroes
That's 6 missions which can be done in about 2-2.5 hours or so, and with the standard entries in the book, net you 9000 points (not to mention the 18,000XP and 1.8k)

I consider it easier, quicker, and a damn site more entertaining than slugging through piles of monsters for hours on end.

So it is really worth it to give the book away without filling ALL the pages?
Maybe i should try this in normal mode until i reach rank 8. That should be easier and maybe even as fast as hard mode.

Thanks for the replys guys! I did A Gate to Far in 30 min this AM and was easy in HM. I wrote this post for a friend that was lvl 8 in all four Reputations and tried to average 1000 points in a 20 minute span. Farming for points is fine but to get max points you must kill at least 100 monsters and and then try to rampage as much as possible. I usually dont have the time to play for two hour, plus, so farming didn't work for me.
Adding quest The Great Destroyer is fast for me in NM but in HM, as I am a Derv, is more of a pain that it is worth, but that is only my opinion. Wish I was a 55 Monk LOL.
Finding the Bllodstone might be easy but just getting to the dungeon is a pain if you run into Raptors or Ferothrax's in HM. They must have 2500 health points apiece.
Again thanks for the replies and I have added A Gate to Far to my list as you get 1500 more points for a book with 9 quests done than a book with 8 quests when turned in.

I would not turn in NM rep books until you are just a few points from level 8 then that 20k will get you close to level 9 maybe level nine I forget the amount you need to go from 8 to 9. In any case it would shave off a lot of HM grinding that way.

Finding the bloodstone is quite easy to get to without aggroing any 'saurs once you have done it a few times and know the patrols.

Killing the great destroyer is far less about what you are than what you do with your H/H. You need SS, interrupts and pain inverter. The rest is just about making sure enough of you survive the enraged blast, to PI him again the next time he is interrupted, then he is dead. Other things work really well too (touchers, 55s, mesmers etc), but any character can use this strategy.

its kinda nice to go back and forth. what i am doing and plan on doing for the rest of the rep titles is doing some of the handbook, turning it in and then vanquishing an area, then doing a handbook, vanquish, till i've vanquished all. that means i can work on master of the north title as well. and its not the same thing over and over.

I think there are excellent choices to get reputation points for most paths - except Vanguard. And this is where the partial books come in handy.

Meh, why only fill in partial Handbooks? I'll be maxing my titles with vanquishing and filling in complete HM hero handbooks. The reward increases a lot when you get closer to a full book and it's not like any of the primaries are hard. (only annoying one is BLood Washes Blood and getting there)

3) Avoiding specific primaries. Personally, I'd rather avoid Warband of Brothers and Finding Gadd in HM for example.

True about that one.

Just find out the fastest way to do all of them and bring enough counters to the biggest threat(or whatever it's spelled)

Also speed.

As I said before doing the 3 quickest quests takes 30 mins for 3K rep. A full book nets you 30K rep, so for the same rate of rep return you need to do them all in 5 hours. Some of the quests are painfully long even the quickest way, some are a pain to get to, some are both.

Although doing a full book is more satisfying and just repeating the same 3-4 quests can get boring. Good thing is once I finish vanquishing areas, I won't have to do it many times.

I think I will stick with the Falls 4-6k more points in the same time.

and by good team I mean H/H Ummm actually I said 3 missions in 30 mins or less so at least 6K per hour. In fact I can do the missions so easily it is more like 24 mins, which would work out to roughly 7.5K. In easy bite size chunks instead of slogging through 500 monsters.

Also what the hell kind of H/H build are you running to take them down that fast...seriously just to run round covering the entire area without speed boosts must take close to an hour. So every fight you get into is 2 seconds or less??? With a variety of different mobs and skills to face??? You must have the best H/H build ever created, or you haven't checked your timer at the end of a run.

Read what I quoted You on said nothing about 30 mins. Sabs heros modified for that area. the archer hench,interupter hench, hench monks, for your build Echo,arcane echo,pain inverter, Great dwarf weapon, standard of honor. and the rest is your choice you will be spamming GDW and SoH allong with PI as much as possable, Keep the archers GDW on them and the Minnions if your good at selecting them. every group just drops in a heart beat, PI on 3 diff targets+10 minnions+barbs+SoH+weakness=everything dieing way to fast. the tiers in your norn,asura,vangard,dwarf are the key, tier 8 in all works great. tier 10 in all is overkill LOL but with the set up like mine You will be suprised how fast they drop.

I maxed dwarf points during the rep weekend.
After that I was able to get my other 3 rep to rank 8 just with the hero and dungeon books.
Yesterday I maxed vanguard with 2 hero HM books.
I'm at 87k with 2 other reps and will do the same with the books until they are max.

Defiantly a good way to do it, I find it less boring than clearing mobs in an area.

I can h/h all quests pretty easily with my eyes closed.
The ones that present a challenge are:

Blood washes blood (just because of the monk boss, and all those Vetirs before you zone into the mission area, they are just a waste of time.
A time for heros, monk hench can't cut it there at least from my experience but just one more human can make all the difference.
Destruction depth, doable with h/h but needs careful pulling and some party wipes at the bridge.

Ok some more tips for people:

-You can enter any of the Hero Handbook quests from THE SCRYING POOL in HoM. Saves you some time travelling to certain places, tho it is not that far. But EotN could be THE outpost to start repeatable HHB quests in. This makes Blood washes Blood very easy.
-If you have a complete NM Dungeon Handbook, dont turn it in, untill the reputation of that faction is just below 80k, like 79.999 points, then u will have the maximum advantage from a NM Handbook. You can raise the points by turning in other handbooks or farming. This will boost you from R7 to R9 with 119.999 points and only 40k away from max title.

@Boxterduke, start BwB from the Pool XD, Time for Heroes is doable, if you take Pain inverter and Zho, DD is waste of time but ive done h/h before

So only DD cant be done in less then 20 mins...

WOW to 2 things. Can't believe I didn't think of echo chaining PI . Am definitely going to have to try that since I haven't vanquished fells yet. Seriously though those 'bonuses' hate me...i will be lucky to make 6K. Oh and yeah I said the times for each mission in my first post sorry.

And I didn't know about starting quests from HoM , that will make some things much quicker and easier.

I have maxed out delver, vanguard, norn and asuran.

Delver was maxed out during double pts. Vanguard/Norn/Asuran were completed within a week (and I only play about 4-5 hours after work at evenings) by turning in HM hero handbook. It is a lot of quicker than farming in explorable.

I started by just doing few easy ones and turning in 11 pages and then later decide might as well just do all of them (a full HM hero book can be completed in about 4-5 hours) for the last couple book I turned in.

Easiest HM and can be done in 10-15 mins, hero/hencheable if you can't find friends to go with you. I will rate them from the easiest to difficult in my own experience.

1. A time for heroes -->Pain Inverter FTW. This mission can take as short as 5 minutes to 10 mins.
2. G.O.L.E.M.
3. Curse of Norn Bear
4. A gate too far
5. Finding the bloodstone -> just run to mission inscribed stone and avoid groups in explorable. Mission itself is really easy.
6. Assault on the Stronghold > can be done fairly quick after few practice and knows how to do it.
7. Against the Charrs - up to you how you want to do it. You can just rush the garrison or take your time to thin them up.
8. Warband of brothers ->can be done in 30 minutes after few practice but requries a specific charr killing hero setup.
9. Elusive Golemancer >>mission itself is really easy. forget about the worker golem and his force shield. Just run through the fire corridor and make it to the next rez shrine and die there. -15 dp allows you to skip a good portion of the mission. However, running through the explorable to get to this mission is a pain. It takes a good 15 minutes to just run to this mission in HM. Generally, not worth of your time and I only do it if guildies needs it or it is the last couple blank page that I miss.
10. Blood washes blood > too long. Mission itself is easy but fighting through explorables to get to mission shrine just not worth of your time. You can run through and avoid most of the mobs in Jaga Moraine. However, there is tons of those what is it called camping near the bear shrine. You can avoid them and cap shrines if you are lucky with spawn, but most of the time you still need to clear quite a few of those to be able to cap the bear shrine to start the mission. Not worth the time.
11. Destruction's Depth. too long. Not worth doing unless it is the last page missing and you might as well do it to get the full 30K rep. pts as compare to 22K for turning in at 15 pages.

hope this helps.

If you have the UB skill already can't you just run from shrine to the strong hold with out going to get the blessing first?

If so that would make it shorter and easier.

Hi all,

*EDIT* -.- you can only start the questmarker apparently from the Scrying Pool...

Being able to start repeatable quests from the SCRYING POOL in HoM, I just realised that yesterday, when I was browsing Wiki articles. Now this could actually make GWEN rep farming as easy and fast as LB/SS farming outside Remains of Sahlaha.

Eye of the North Outpost: URSAN LFG URSANWAY 1/8 for HeroBook!

Think what a group of 6 Ursans and 2 monks would do to certain quests.

-Blood Washes Blood, probably possible to rush into camp and kill the Charr in 5-10 mins.
-Against the Charr, grouprush into camp and assasinate the Charr boss in 5-10 mins.
-Finding the Bloodstone, rush to ettins and kill em fast 10-15 mins.
-Curse of the Nornbear, decimate the Jotuns patrolling the cave and kill off the Nornbear (1 person should take Volfen Blessing)
-A Time for Heroes, take Pain Inverter, as suggested above or take a runner for 1-2k. You can hench it, kill all Destroyers of Live to be save, there will ALWAYS be at least 1 or 2 landfills that you can stand on without being burned, they just change from time to time.
-Assault on the Stronghold, someone BOND Armored Saurus with Mending, Watchfull Spirit, Life Bond, Life Barrier

About A Gate too far, Golemancer and Warband I currently dont have experience rushing, but it should be easy and fast with 6 Ursans.

Dont bother spending books on Deldrimor rank, you can just as well farm the Snowmen Lair for a change.

URSAN LFG URSANWAY 1/8 for HeroBook farming!
(btw, Paragons are prob best for Ursan, since they have Refrains that can be maintained forever and they have high armor rating. Also Leadership can give 6-7 energy every 20 secs for the shout. Soulreaping or Critical Strikes is also good for returning energy. If you are going Ursanway, create a Zealous onehand weapon with +5 energy, together with some energy focus (Bison Cup)

The only problem about finding partymembers for Ursanbooking *grin* is that it hasnt been introduced to the metagame yet, so spread the word!

LMAO @ Guildmaster. "Ursanbooking"

But yeah seriously, that could be a great fun way to do it. Even if we have to run to quests. 6 bears spreading out and legging it, someone must make it through.

Totally agree about dwarf rep too. I am on 150K and haven't 'farmed' at all. Done some dungeons a few times trying to work out optimum builds. Although I think I did use a book on it when they changed things that weekend. By the time I finish all the dungeons in HM it will be up to 180K or more. So that was a waste of a book

Well, at least I tried something before I post this time.

Blood Washes Blood is much faster if you bring Ursan Blessing and skip going to the Bear Shrine (you still need to run to the other shrine and ignite the flame near the Vaettirs).

I think it took me 10 mins in NM

i havent done any of this crap and im rank 10 in all but vanguard. might use this idea to max vanguard tho... i got max in the other 3 as a side benefit of getting legendary master of the north. all that rep from vanquishing everything + all the dungeons and primaries + 4 full books = 10 norn, asura, deldrimor.... much more fun than repeating the same dumb crap over and over and over
