FPS Rogue works for pickpocketing.
Some of the things to think about too: Rep is gained at 110% with guild levels but lost at normal levels. So things bloodsail honored may not push you all the way to the bottom of hated with goblins. Even more so with battle standards.
For the goblins, pirates that give bonus to one rep won't push that rep all the way, hence the change in profiles. Fray Island stops early on Ratchet, Venture Bay early on Booty, Southbreak Shore early on Gadget, etc. If you plan to do cloth turn in's (which don't hurt achieve progress if you hit honored Bloodsail as many have said and are correct in saying), obviously do what's cost effective, but remember that Everlook doesn't have that many quests and doesn't really have a faster farm spot, so consider turning in Everlook Runecloth.
Another observation on Goblin rep is that Venture bay is even more amazing because it stays within 100yds and thus won't despawn a battle standard (more rep yay!). I had to edit the mob killing profiles for Ravenholdt as my previous post mentioned so the "horde" profile wouldn't do this either. Also, if you are so inclined, the "alliance" Ravenholdt profile is perfectly neutral imo and is faster killing since it's more in the open (just make sure you hit the stealths around the perimeter).
Also, the number of lockboxes isn't 1400 if you have guild rep gains. 21001/82.5 = 254.5 turn ins of 5 boxes = 1275 total boxes.
Finally, Darkmoon Epic decks will net you 385 rep (350 * 1.1) which is ~110 decks. If you are doing this many decks though, remember that there are 50 quests per month on Darkmoon Isle at 250 (275 with guild) rep each. Thats 5 daily quest games (8 days if you hit it up post-midnight on the first day before quest reset) for 40 quests, 9 item to turn in (buy off AH if you don't have 'em), and 250 grisly trophies for the total of 50.
If you do that math, you need 42000 rep total from neutral. Ignoring any "go check out the faire" quest rep gains, you can get 12500 (13750 w/guild perks) rep per month without a single deck! Thats only 3-4 months with just a few decks turned in without perks or 3 months (and 2 epic decks) for those with perks.
If you're like me and want to hurry but don't want to do 110 decks at the end of an xpac (since they won't sell... but hey, herbs are cheap!), you can do 73 decks with 1 month of quests or 2 months of quests and only 38 decks (assuming perks).
Anyway, hope some of this info helps out people calculate how much to farm... I started working on Insane 12 days ago and plan to finish darkmoon next month to save a few gold, but otherwise, all others are complete in a few hundred more lockboxes!
