Easy PvP Rep Badges?

Hey guys,

I'm in need of some easy ways of getting my PvP rep up for the badges. I've gotten the 100 rep badge, after about a week of play (I hate PvP, and my build is not even close to that of a PvP build).

I've tried the obvious trick of getting on teams in RV. The rep income is slow, but it does add up. But after a week and 100 rep, I'm ready for different methods.

I need the 400 rep badges for my Longbow Warden 2 badges, which in term leads to all my healing badges

I've heard of a method of two friends going to a PvP zone (Warburg if the same side), and getting a kill, logging onto a different toon, getting a kill...back and forth. Sounds cumbersome, and besides, Im not sure if I have any friends that are as badge-hungry as I am and wanna go through that.

If the above mentioned IS the way to go for the non-PvPer, anyone on Freedom need a sparring partner?

Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Well, this would work if you have enough toons to choose from (you need several toons because of the rep-timer, or it's slower than it needs to be). If you have a second account you could even do it alone. However, I'm not sure this would be easier or faster than doing it in PvP.

Btw, if you switch back and forth between RV and Sirens Call you might have more PvP action overall.

The fastest way to do it is to get a few friends and kill each other. The rep timer resets every 5 minutes I believe, so 3 friends should do it.

Friend 1 kills 2, 3 and 4
Friend 2 kills 1, 3 and 4
Friend 3 kills 1, 2 and 4
Friend 4 kills 1, 2 and 3

At this point the 5-minute timer should be over and you can start the loop again, without anyone having to log off and back on. Make sure everybody has a ton of wakies so you can rez in the spot, otherwise travel will be an annoyance.

fast recharging self rezzes also help (or if your all the same faction using toons with a rez power, temporarily team with the person, rez them, then quit team)

I havent done this in a while, but unless the change was more significant then a 4 person Farm wont do it even with the 5 minute timer.

Example:

Unless you take 5 minutes between the time that Friend 1 kills 2 (first line, first kill), and Friend 2 kills 1 (second line, first kill); Friend 2 will not receive Rep for the kill, and all subsequent kills will suffer the same way. In fact in your example it is quite possible that the only Friend to get any Rep would be Friend 1 and all subsequent kills will be Rep-less.

Personally, I have worked Rep with just two accounts (mine and my wife) using all our toons on one Server in a secluded area of Bloody Bay near a Hospital since Wakies will only work for a few rounds. The downtime between Loads/Toons generally eats up the 5 minute timer, and the Low Health of the Rezzed 'Target' toon makes for a quick kill. If the Killer toon is a MM (or perhaps a Controller) it can be set to Auto-Kill so that the Farm is soloable from the Target Account.

Unless you get 400 toons together for a marathon Rep Fest; there is no easy way to do it.

Incorrect. "Revenge reputation" works correctly now. If Friend 1 kills Friend 2, and Friend 2 immediately kills Friend 1, both get reputation.

Thanks for the input guys. As a matter of fact, I will try this out in a few hours. Got some friends together for a Warburg 'rep-farm.' I'll post back and let you know how it works out, and how many people I had along for the ride.
