Where to farm Romulan Marks?

What is the best/quickest way to acquire them?
Obtaining Omega/Borg marks is incredibly easy. Just by running a single Elite STF, I have enough to queue up the Reputation Missions and have enough left over for a 500 dilithium conversion.
Romulan Marks seems to make me run at least 2 missions from the PvE queue just to get enough to get the daily reputation missions going.
Why would they so freely give out the Borg marks in excess and stifle the romulan marks?

That link above will take you to a guide on farming epohhs.
Long story short, tagging epohhs on New Romulus and then doffing with epohh tags and raising baby epohhs into elder epohhs which can be sold for 400 Rm, takes a few days to complete the process but when you do it's more than enough to sustain you until you sell your next epohh.
That seems like a horribly extended chain of events just to get it.
Run mission to get currency 1.
Doff mission to trade currency 1 for currency 2.
Trade currency 2 for pet.
Run missions with pet to age/evolve.
Sell pet/repeat.
Track what stage various efforts are in, so you are eventually doing all of them.
When a simple 15/20 minute STF can get 90 marks, and the process just to get 400 romulan marks can take a month....sad.
The tagging mission itself only takes a couple of minutes then turn in and start the doffing process. It really takes no more than 5 minutes of your time to do the mission. You do need to have someone else to get the 31 tags you need but there are always people there to team up with and it can be done with 2 people.
The only thing that makes it time consuming is the trip to New Romulus unless you have a friend who can invite you to their embassy so you just have to walk out the embassy door to New Romulus.
That sounds more like what I enjoy. I'm sure others love the epoh game, and I'll give it a short try. But the blow things up route is a bit more enjoyable for my playstyle.
The mission actually can be combined with the Sector Patrol, as all 5 of his Locations add up to 95% of the Sector Patrol Count. The only Issue is that you need to spend several Minutes after each Mission to get to the Satellite to play this 60 Second Mini game to get about 20+ reports.
You can get most of the way to 300 Rad Reports after two days, just on the Space missions alone.
The Bad news is you'll need a space in your inventory for the Radiation reports, but the good news is that they stack to 300 to a Pile.
Tbh the best way was the winter epohhs during the Q winter event, but after that is over, epohh farming is the best way, barring that, just run all the New Romulus Missions, you'll get decent expertise, and some marks. Tau Dewa sector patrol is your best bet. Just remember to ONLY TURN IT IN DURING THE REPUTATION EVENT. That will increase your haul by 20-25%. That adds up quickly.
But other than that, there is no easy (as in STF level of ease) way to get romulan marks.
Helping Gekli in Galorndon, Helping with negotiations, killing rogue Klingons in Beta Thoridor (my fav shoot'em up), collecting alien artifacts in Beta Lankal, etc.
There are more missions available that will give Romulan Marks than Omega Marks. For Omega Marks you got the STFs and Red Alerts... are there others?
After a long day at work, getting into a serious STF is not my idea of relaxation, so I usually end-up going for Romulan Marks. But maybe that's just me...
SCE ADVISORY NOTICE: Improper Impulse Engine maintenance can result in REAR THRUSTER LEAKAGE. ALWAYS have your work inspected by another qualified officer.
I find some of the Romulan Mark missions very relaxing after a long, annoying day of work.
Well the idea with Epohh tagging is that it takes awhile to "prime the pump" so to speak, but once it starts flowing, it flows quickly.
And of course there are no STFs for Romulan Rep, so it's pointless to compare the rates of return in that way.
Apart from Epohh Farming the best/easiest/quickest way to get marks is to run the two daily space missions in Tae Dewa sector, and if you can, turn them in during a Reputation event (bumps the rewards for sector patrol from 60 to 75, for example).
The bottom line is that New Romulus is a much slower and less rewarding rep compared to Omega, and always will be unless/until they put in Borg style STFs for nice rewards.

whoever mentioned that was either dumb, or doesnt know the commonly used definition of mmo farming.
Why is it that with 11 posts to your name, running a search on that name you've necroed 5 different threads now? Some strange form of trolling?
I like that this thread is basically a quadruple-necro or so at this point, kind of amusing. But you are right, he is necroing a lot of threads.
And I dont care about your stupid internet and/or forum conventions. I am not a forumites or dweller. Yes I know what a necro is, but the information in this post is still relevant as none of the Romulan Mark farming has changed any. If anyone is googling "Best way to farm Romulan Marks" this posting comes out at or near the top.
Get a life. Oh wait...
This is what I do when I know I will need Romulan Marks in the future:
- Wait till an event where the Marks are doubled
- Go to New Romulus.
- Talk to Foreman Kylor, accept and complete "New Romulus: Staging Area".
- Talk either to Admiral Valoth (Federation) or General K'vera (Klingon), accept "Lending a hand".
- Complete all assignments under the "Lending a hand" scattered via the transporters.
- Obtain around 172 marks + 15 marks + 150 marks = 337 marks in a relatively short time.
