My character is a rit main and I mostly grind with Heros and henchmen if that matters
Eye of the north reps
FallingLeaves
Hello, not sure if this has been asked before but, I have a question about the 4 reputations in eye of the north (asura, ebon vanguard, deldrimor, and norn). What is the order of the four from the easiest to max out to the hardest? I wanted to know so I can turn in the 4 books accordingly later on, thanks

Easiest would be a tie between Asura and Norn, there are established farms out there for both. Deldrimor used to be the easiest until most of the dungeon runs were nerfed. Now you'll be paying through the nose for runs, and they'll mostly be rushed through with minimal killing. Vanguard has typically been the hardest because there's really no established farm for it. Most people vanquish or partially vanquish Sacnoth Valley finishing up with the charr bosses but that takes a good amount of time, and vanquishing the same area over and over again...I'd get tired pretty easily.

Easy
Asuran - Leech some raptor farmers if you need to
Deldrimor - Snowmen is quick and easy
Norn - Should be easy with 'A Path to Revelations'. I was able to max two titles after doing all the NM and HM content so me not having it wasn't an issue anyway. Vanquishing Varajar Fells is another option.
Ebon Vanguard - No real farming options. Vanquish Sacnoth Valley.
Hard

I agree somewhat. While asuran may be easiest for people with the ability to go hours doing essentially nothing asuran is easy. (or ofc if your doing it on a war)
But if you aren't good with doing nothing for hours it can make asuran a real pain.

You can repeat O Brave New World by abandoning the quest after completing it. That's doing something Asuran. 
Slower overall gain than raptor leeching/farming but it's not as brainless.
If you want to make raptor leeching a little more exciting you can run to the Sky Krewe Member after getting the bounty...if you make it in time (it's very close) you can get +30 points every time and you're not sitting around at all. You will need a consistent 33% run speed boost.

Depends on your class. For my Ranger, maxing Asuran was just vanquishing Magus Stones over and over and over again with a pet build and Sabway, Gwen replacing Master of Whispers with a Panic and etc dom build.
The others are such a pain in the lower anatomy I haven't maxed none of 'em.

I could not agree more! So why are we still up to our eyeballs in meaningless senseless grind in GW 1? This is the same ANet, right?

Just do FULL Hero handbooks in HM a few times, and Dungeon handbooks in HM. Turn in books to a rep agent of your choice. Finish the remaining points via vanquishing EOTN fully during double rep weekend.
Or you can speed-book hero handbook zillions of times...THIS IS GRIND...stupid....
Not much grind involved if you use your brains and take advantage of the special weekend bonuses.

Asuran : Just leech some raptor runs or do them yourself
Deldrimor : Nothing is better than the snowmen run
Norn : Vanquish with the "A path to revelations" quest active
Vanguard : The snowball fight quest at wintersday cause that is soon here.
Good luck
Another nice option is doing books

Vanguard is pretty easy in the upcomming wintersday. Snowball dominance will get you max very very fast.

Can't vouch for farming faction, but one thing I have noticed is that my Dwarven faction is usually surprisingly high, given that I never intentionally farm it since few of those skills are of use in my builds. Couldn't say why. Maybe because of the dungeons?

Don't forget the zaishen missions for the story quests. Do 3 of them to "fill" a book and get points from the z-mission rewards + points for turning in the book.

In my opinion, they're all pretty easy. If you want to do minimal farming/grinding, take each kind of book with you (NM/HM Hero's/Dungeon) and just do all of the GW:EN content. Vanquish along the way or before you start the HM quests and dungeons. I did some Raptor and Vaettir farming along the way, but not enough to make a huge difference. Playing through a few times you get to experience all the content and you'll land awfully close to max on a couple of tracks.
