K’aresh Trust Reputation Sources
There are several ways to obtain K’aresh Trust Renown below. We have broken down all the ways to gain this reputation, they are in the order we think is the most efficient.

Weekly K’aresh Quests
There are 2 weekly K’aresh Quests that reward reputation with K’aresh Trust the first is Ecological Succession and the second is the Tazavesh Warrant Quest in order to access the warrant quest you will need to have reached renown 3 with the K’aresh Trust.
World Quests

Bountiful Delve
Completing a bountiful delve at any level has a chance to reward a K’aresh Trust token, rewarding 1100 reputation. If you run out of bountiful keys before receiving the reputation you can log a different character and use their keys to try for the reputation, however, this reputation can only be received once per warband.
Contract
By using a Contract: The K’aresh Trust will cause all world quest on Khaz Algar to grant an additional 5 to 15 reputation depending on the quality of the contract. A rank 1 grants 5 reputation and Rank 2 Grants 10 and a Rank 3 grants 15. These are crafted by the inscription profession and the recipe requires 5 renown with the K’aresh Trust.
Note: On PTR the tooltip showed 5 reputation at all ranks but correctly gave additional reputation for higher ranks.
Rares
