Its funny that the grindiest content is casual content. No rep from rares. 25 rep from events. 125 rep from elite WQs. Why bother? Blizzard needs to take notes from Beast Tribes, these renown tracks are insufferable.

Looks like this is bugged in the latest patch. None of the rep you earn toward Loamm Niffen will go toward the progress of the quest.
I found myself running around looking for ways to get rep at the start with them and then I came across Incense Gratification which I received after completion of Smells Like Kith Spirit and rewards Pungent Niffen Incense, worth 1000 rep.

Description
Djaradin, dracthyr, and dragons! Oh my! You can't help but smell the danger in these here caverns. We sure could use some armed assistance. You scratch my back, and I'll make sure the kith scratch yours! We got loads of good stuff... for the right clientele. How about it? Get out there and bury the competition?
