    If you have a good build 5 times Japori is a good option too. Can take less than 3 minutes and gives decent loot you can sell for EC.

    The reps are now pretty easy to get... here is a easy list of things to do.... and remember you get enough marks for 3 days at least from each thing you do... so you don't have to do it all at once. Once per day you earn a special purple reward box for completing a rep mission... this + the marks form the mission = aprox 3 - 3.5 days of marks starting the 30 mark mission.

    Day one... spend 15 min and get 2-3 rep marks... day 2 do ones you missed... after a few days your just building your stock pile. When you end the rep if you don't do the hourly, you will earn enough extra marks to buy gear with out having to grind anything at all.

    1) Undine Rep
    - As others have said space war zone.... all you have to do is capture one point to earn the Daily purple box. This can take anywhere from 2 min to 5 min depending on the point you are trying to capture.
    - Second option any of the new STFs will also reward the daily box.

    2) Dyson Rep
    - Ground Zone... same as space zone you just need one cature so 2-5 min again depending on the capture type and the number of people around to help out.
    - Again the qued missions will also reward the purple box for you... they take a bit longer but to keep yourself sane once or twice a week run one instead.

    3) Romulan Rep
    - Space Tau Dewa Block... this is complete 5 patrol style missions. This one takes awhile... however you will earn 400-500k EC in junk which is nice... and completeing it gives more marks then any of the STFs so you end up with around 130 marks for completing this once... so really you may not have to run this one more then once or twice a week.
    - Alternate is of course again the qued missions.
    - Special bonus... YOU Can complete your Nukura Daily AND a good chunk of the patrol by doing the Alert mission in the Tau Dewa Block... you fight Tholians and for completing it you get credit on the rom patrol, and a purple Nukura box. Two birds one stone.

    (Here is a Tau system list for you... Carraya - romulans, Japori - Nausacian pirates, Beta Thoridar - klingon, Gamma Eridion - Breen.... the rest are different click this that folow the gelki ect missions... they take longer and most people skip them. Acamar is short but it only gives 15% credit so you have to do 7) Most people pick one they like and just repeat it 5 times.

    4) Nukura rep
    - Crystalline Entity... completing this will give you access to purple nukura box.
    - The above Romulan Tau Alert mission
    - any qued Nukura missions

    5) Omega
    - Tried and true pretty standard run any STF... earn purple box first run of day and you are not required to do anything else for 3 days or so.


    Those are the easiest quickest ways to earn the rep marks... and again you don't HAVE to do all of them every day... just a couple. After a few days your fine marks aren't an issue, unless you burn them all on gear or something. :)

    My daily run on a toon..... will often be...
    Day One... Omega STF (3-8min) - Undine or Dyson zones for awhile (only 3-10min needed but I stay and earn some D ect lots of times)
    Every other Day... I make a trip to Tau zone... do the 5 patrol missions... when I see the alart in sector space I do it for the nukura.

    That's it... in between I can sit at the exchange PvP what ever I want because the rep is now pretty much fire and forget. If you are planning to earn gear from anyone of the reps just focus on doing more of that one. The gear unlocks as you go... so if you focus on one and get the daily box and perhaps a bit extra each day as you unlock the gear you will have the marks... and if you don't spend your Dilihitum on anything else you should mostly have that covered as well.

    All you need to do is do 1 mission a day for each rep 3 times a week. You get your daily bonus marks (55) + whatever the mission would normally reward you. That turns out to over 180 marks a week, which is more than enough to fuel the daily rep project every day.

    It's not a hard system, you just have to play a few times a week. Of course if you want any of the rep gear, you have to put in more effort.

    IMO the easiest rep missions are:

    Omega - ISE (assuming you have a half-decent ship)

    Nukara - Go to nukara prime and do the easy mission to break 10 tholian scanners. You just run around and interact with stuff.

    Romulan - Mountain pass mission.

    Dyson - Mine field missions. Generally these just make you blow stuff up. I don't like other missions in the zone that make you choose dialog options and think about stuff.

    Undine - Undine battlezone. Takes longer than a mission, but rewards more marks.

    The reps are now pretty easy to get... here is a easy list of things to do....
    Day one... <snip>

    This post pretty much sums up my own daily run (and no need to repeat it ... again) ...

    Although I generally just do a Tau Dewa Red Alert and choose Nukara Marks as this also counts as 25 points/percent towards the 100 points/percent needed for the 5 "Patrol Missions" for Rom Rep marks (20 points each), or run Gamma Eridon 5 times, as that's probably the easiest of all ...

    That will net me enough Rom and Nukara marks for several days ... Whilst waiting for the Red Alert to pop, I'll normally just PuG ISE, KASE or CSE and that's Omega taken care of for a couple of days ... Then swing over to he Dyson Sphere (which happily is within spitting distance of where the Red Alert respqwns you) ... Drop down and squish a T-Rex for enough Dyson Marks for a few days and some bonus Dil ... Then transport back to my ship and I'll normally try and help at all three points and try and help with the PK's to get enough Undine marks for a few days, plus a little more bonus Dil ...

    I'm afraid I have to agree, in that the claims of 15 to 20 mins are complete BS ... there's no polite way of saying it ... Unless of course you can provide video evidence?

    But certainly you'd only need around 1 hour maximum every couple of days to fulfill every Rep currently in game comfortably, and all from 1 sector, with about 1 minute sector space flight time. (if that)
    Oh, hoho hohhhhh, Oh,, hoho, hohhhhh

    Soooo 1 hour max every couple of days ? ... like every 3-4 days ? .... hmmm 1hour / 3-4 = complete BS ??
    [you just confirmed that so called BS / why does everyone need Video Evidence of something, they're obviously already doing themselves]

    Nope ... Wrong again ... <sigh> I'm not sure how much easier I can explain it ...

    First: "A Couple" is, in most societies, accepted as meaning around 2 ("A Few" or "Several" = 3 maybe 4) ... So no I did NOT just "confirm it"

    Yes I guess you could divide 60mins by 2 and get 30mins per day, but I hope you should be able to see, that you can't actually do that. So that does NOT count as confirmation of the claims of others.

    Second: Claims were being made that the entire Reputation system could be "filled" with "several" days worth of Marks ( accepting that 20hour cooldowns are essentially separate days) in just one 15 or 20 min session ... THAT is what I was calling BS ... And that is what I'd like to see video evidence of ... If you can provide evidence that it IS possible, I will happily start a thread on these forums proclaiming you to be the greatest STO player of all time

    Well you used both "couple" & "several" ... you also said "1hour max" ... so that's more like 50min ? ... so 50min / 2,5 = ? (yeah I already know ... 1h max is more like 59min & 59s)

    Why not ? ... is someone forcing you to collect 5 different kind of marks on one day ? Please enlighten me ...

    You might wanna show me were these Claims were made exactly ... it was alway ~ 15min / day (certainly never ever "several" days, feels like we're playing "Chinese Whispers" in here :P -> next Stop : 15 Rep Systems blindfolded & naked within 1 Day (someone just claimed it, I heard)

    You need 1225 Marks your first time through any Rep now. Alts require 625. Main will need 100 per alt for the bonus application thing.

    Tau Dewa Daily 15-40 minutes depending on build. This nets you 115-138 depending on if you have a mark bonus active. Tholian Event gets you 5 Fleet Marks, 10 Nukara, 15 Romulan, and 55 Nukara for the daily without the bonus. with the bonus is ~20 Romulan, and 78 Nukara. This takes 10 min or you fail. You can run this as much as it pops but will only get Romulan Marks after the first time.

    Nukara - Destroy 10 science things, 65-78 if you do this for your daily bonus. Takes ~5 minutes.

    Omega - Infected Space Elite STF 8-15 minutes 130-156.

    Dyson - Random Atmosphere Daily 65-78 Marks ~10 minutes.

    Undine - Undine Assault Elite Daily 100-111 Marks ~20 minutes.

    How do you level up all 5 reputations ???

    I mean with 11 Hours sleep , 8 Hours work , 1 Hour travel back home time , 2 hours household time , and lets say 2 hours time with your wife and kids you take like 24 Hours ....to play the game person with a normal life (( as mentioned above )) has to do compromises to be able to play at all...PLUS time to get the reputation done...maybe even roleplay or do episodes...or help your friends...

    * Not speaking of the dilithium you need for the gear ...fleet and al that stuff...

    im just curious... im a person with a non-normal life so i hav emore time to play.. but a person with a life as mentioned above would take a real long time to get the reputaions done since they cannot log in every day...

    Probably a joke post... But 11 hours sleep? I'm lucky if I get 6.

    Look on the bright side ... if you need 11 hours of sleep every day, you'll probably be dead within the next 40 days => no reason to do Reps in the first Place ;)
