How can I boost rep XP?

Apparently you can only run so many hourly rep projects (in addition to the dailies), and I want to hit a goal faster than both of those will allow. Is there any way to boost the Rep XP gained on those rep assignments? Or some other way to gain Rep XP? (Focusing on Undine at the moment..)

    You can purchase Rep Boost packs on the exchange.

    I see mark pools and Duty Officer Commendation XP boots...

    So far I don't see anything for Reputation XP...

    Hm, i dont think so. The only way to boost reputation xp is through reputation tokens. Once you complete tier 5 on any of your reps, you can make an extra project that will grants you a token, that you can use on any of your characters. It will double your reputation xp on that reputation of that character.

    Stop searching, as far as i know there are not reputation xp packs in the c-store/exchange, that never existed.

    Yes, the C-store was the first place I looked, already preparing myself for sticker shock when...surprise..no such item!

    Occasionally they do bonus mark weekends, so rep grind levels give an extra 50% or whatever. Generally the best approach is to get the tokens from one toon and do only 1 mission per day with the others so the dailies bonuses save you effort over the long term. Some of the rep levels now also give R&D boxes, which you'll need for crafting or can sell.

    As others said, no, BUT...
    -you can keep farming marks so you can afford gear when you hit tier 5
    - you can keep farming for the special item as well, also for t5 gear (borg processors, voth implants, etc0
    - you can work on all 5 reps each day. If you do 3 hourly and 1 daily each day in all 5 reps, you should be about tired of it for one day, but if not...
    - you can roll a second/third/50th/... character to grind. This is very productive -- it nets you something like 200k dil (for all the rep grinds combined) and a farmer if nothing else, even if you don't seriously gear and play the character.

    Best advice is to concentrate on one toon, and get that toon to Tier 5 in each Reputation.
    You can then run a project for a "Sponsorship Token" that can be then given/sent to your other toons, which double the amount of Rep XP generated from each Rep XP project.

    Seeing as Cryptic, in their infinite wisdom, have made it impossible to get a full Rep gear set until you reach Tier 5, your best bet is to only do Rep XP Projects and don't bother making gear, until you reach Tier 5, by then you should have enough Marks, coupled with the bonus for completely Tier 5, to get three pieces of a set.

    Oh, and although it's hurts me to say this, you can get Reputation Boost "Tokens" from Lockboxes, that give a 20% boosts to the Marks received (same as XP and CXP Tokens)

    However I think they are Bound to Character, or at the very least, so rare, and valuable, that you will never see them on the exchange.
    Oh, hoho hohhhhh, Oh,, hoho, hohhhhh

    Is this true?? ive never seen one of those in my life. Are they as rare as lobi ships, i suposse? because i got everything from a lock box, but i never saw reputation boosts. I know there are reputation MARK boosts, but i didnt even know reputation exp tokens existed.. :eek:
