Someone also posted that it can be buggy if you kill them to fast (mass AOE) you don't get all the points.

I'm a little confused. I took a 3 month break from GW and only came back a few weeks ago. How do you get Ursan/Volfen blessing on your bar without going to the shrine? Also what does h/h stand for?

You gotta do the Hogni Truthseeker quests to get the blessings permenantly.

To save time can you take multiple books and repeat mission then change build/team and move on to another mission and repeat etc then hand in all books at once?

Yes, but (a) remember to have the book without the entry FIRST in the inventory (left to right, top to bottom), and (b) keep a straitjacket team on call because the sheer monotony of doing a quest over and over again will drive you a bit batty.

6000pts an hour eh it good for some rep profession. In the Norn Farm you get 6k-15k rep points a run. This 3000pts is good for Vanguard. He has a Point, It adds up so it good and fast.

You can't. You pick them up there. Just saves the trip to the towns/questgivers.

Ive always found A Gate Too Far stupidly easy in hard mode, so id probably do that one over GOLEM or Against the charr. Then again, Id probably just do all of them for a little bit more whack. its like an extra 2000ish points for one more quest, right? why not?

Ok after figuring out this. My Calculations is this - HM Book 3k Rep Points, doing the main Rep Faction(like Norn, Asuran, Vanguard, Dwarf) then do A Time For Heros(Runnerable). If you have done beat the game, get the main Quests. 4Main+3Main rep you want Faction for Then A Time for Heros = 8 Done. But do the method rofly 27 times that 80k Rep Points and total of 54runs = 160k. Though 27 times you will make 16.2k X2 = 32.4k money made. Using the Method make 129.6k for maxing out all Rep Factions. Wondering if this would help.

Think of the Scrying Pool as your own personal "Quest Giver".
That way when you highlight the quest in the log your compass will show the way to go.

They all come from different quests, so basically play through the story and look out for people with quest markers to pick up side quests.

A lot of the Asura skills come from that facet/cipher quest chain from Kerssh in Tarnished Haven. The rest? come from Polymock, so frustrating times there for you.

Vanguard skill quests can mostly be found in EotN itself or outside Longeye's I believe.

Norn all over the place, start with tournament in Gunnar's, then you have some quests from Sif and Olaf (or daughter) then Hogni Truthseeker.

Dwarven skill quests are again all over the place......hold on...... http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Categ...vE-only_skills here's a link to wiki where you can click the skills you want to check out.

Right now I've been working on timing missions and working out average rep/minute for NM handbooks, with HM ones still underway. So far for NM I have the following average results, based on completion of the fastest missions:
Pages Time Rep/minute
8 22:00 91 (5460/hour)
9 33:30 89 (5340/hour)
10 46:30 86 (5160/hour)
11 1:00:30 99 (5940/hour)
12 1:17:00 104 (6240/hour)
13 1:38:00 102 (6120/hour)
14 2:01:00 99 (5940/hour)
15 2:24:00 104 (6240/hour)
16 2:50:00 118 (7080/hour)
HM results should follow once I get good averages from a few guildies, but should yield similar trends in results.
(Anyway, this was mainly in response to the claim that you could get 4000/hour hunting monsters and would therefore earn more points that way)

Doing all 16 missions in HM is the fastest way to max rep except for Norn. You also get more money by doing so.

Get a hold of 2 HM books. Do mission, then swap books and repeat the mission with the same build or tweak it if it didn't work as well as you'd have liked. Gets boring but makes things go faster.

Absolutely correct, though if you're going for the mastery of the north title, you'll want to stick one HM Dungeon Guide in there as well. A full one of those is a LOT of rep.

Edit: okey.. i change my question..


I have for example completed alot of the quests WITHOUT having the book, because I didnt know about it.. If I get the book now will the pages be empty? And I have to do all the missions again? I have done most of them but without the book.. =(

No. If you take your book to one of the rep guys, they will fill in the missing pages for you at a cost of 100g per page.

They will also suggest you should keep your books with you when you do EotN stuff in future............ good advice

Sorry I have to vent a little, but I really dispise all this reputation point farming. My number one complaint is its for ONE TOON. I play 8 toons regulary and like diversity which keeps the game fresh. This grinding (doing the same thing over and over) on the same character is so demotivating. In addition most, but not all, are doing these with henches and heros, so in addition to the grind it is solitary confinement.

Is there a way I can just buy the points? I would pay a healthy price just to buy my toons up in Reputation points and not spend my time grinding on one toon.
