The amount of items needed for each town is:
Currently, Hogsend and Diagon Alley require 27 and 18 items respectively, making them the top two towns with the most items needed for Tasks just right after Antrum which needs 16 items. Most of the other towns have at least 2 to 3 mobs needed to kill in order to get the items except for Squalus Cove and Rushstone which ask for 1 mob to kill to get an item from them.
What I'm getting from this is that since Hogsend and Diagon Alley are lower level - introductory type towns - then they should at least require a lower amount of items needed to finish each Task. To top it off, the gold rewards seem to be abysmally low compared to the marketplace pricing for each item required from Hogsend. Each of the 6 Tasks give 5g and XP as a reward for Hogsend.
Hogsend - 27 items
7 each - Asphodel lvl 10 - 3g marketplace = 21g
6 - Flufflepuff Fur - 5g = 30g
3 - Ghoul Bone - 1g = 3g
6 - Grindling Tooth - 1g = 6h
5 - Wolfsbane lvl 10 - 10g = 50g
Overall you earn 30g if you finish all 6 Tasks in Hogsend - but calculating the amount of items and the current marketplace pricing, a player could have made 110g assuming that their items were bought from their own shop. Of course that might not be the case since other players may end up getting items instead of buying them from the market.
To get to the point -
Hogsend Reputation Tasks require too many items and gives significantly low rewards for the items required for each Task.
Suggestion - Reduce the amount of items for each Task or increase the Rewards for Hogsend Reputations
