Actually, there are NO actual new quests with the proposed 9/4 update. Only the 'timed' special event quests with the Casa Muertos Guild. If they are not changed from what we saw on test, these are barely a scratch in the surface as to the required number of reps to hit level 50.

The Black Mack quest I believe rewards you a cheat card, nothing more.

Treasures reward the pirate 25 notoriety reps if it is a "NEW" item. Once you have your collections full, I do not believe you recieve any further rewards (other than gold value). Cards do not grant any rep whatsoever, and neither does playing cards.

Reevaluating the amount of rep necessary to get to level 50, I do not think its possible to hit level 50, even if you start a new pirate, and did all the quests, and mastered all your weapons. However a 2nd story quest which I believe all this is in preparation for may provide the additional reps necessary.

Keep in mind that Double Rep events, Crewing etc, only expedite your getting to the implemented caps, and wont help get any closer to level 50 than without them (other than speeding up the process). Added: There is one exception to this, questing during a double rep event will definately help towards reaching level 50, these points are only limited by the notoriety cap itself.

Regarding the treasure rep, you get it regardless of whether it is new or not. I reached level 40 on a treasure I already had on Shadow.
