Q: what are paragon chests?
A: Paragon chests are the bonus chests you get at exalted with BfA factions. Once you hit exalted, you still gain rep, and you get a paragon chest every 10k rep and it is tracked on the bars.
I tracked my gold earnings for the month of May on 2 max level toons:
toon #1
5/5/2019 7th legion 4272g
5/5/2019 Proudmoore Admiralty 3938g
5/12/2019 Tortollan 3923g
5/13/2019 Order of Embers 3727g
5/19/2019 storms wake 3788g + violet abyssal eel
5/19/2019 champions of azeroth 3963g
5/31/2019 7th legion 4180g
5/31/2019 tortollan 3878g
31669 gold
toon #2
5/5/2019 Zandalari empire 3813g
5/7/2019 Volundai 3815g
5/13/2019 honorbound 4056g
5/25/2019 tortollan 3865g + bowl of pupperfish toy
5/25/2019 champions of azeroth 3847g
(toon #2 has 1 rep at 8k and 2 reps over 9k as of 6/1/2019, so they just missed getting tallied, but it will occur within a 30 day period.
19396 gold
Also I think I got the 2k gold reward for the daily emissary 3 or 4 times on each toon.
My strategy for completing emissaries is to NOT do them all at once but do those that are (1) fast and (2) clustered together.
For example, today on my horde toon I have 2/4 champions of azeroth complete (expires in 2 days) and 0/4 nazmir (talanjis expedition) complete (expires in 3 days). Looking at the map, I'll fly to Doom Hollow in Nazmir and do Shell Game because it is right there for 1/4 talanjis and 250 tortollan rep, then go north and kill Zebast the Everliving for Azerite Empowerment for 3/4 champions of azeroth and that's it for today.
On my alliance toon I am 2/4 champions of azeroth (expires in 2 days) and 0/4 storms wake (expires in 3 days). In this case, there are 3 fast and easy WQs bunched up in Stormsong Valley right now. I will fly to Fort Daelin and do Calligraphy as its right on the flight path, then catch a flight to seeker's vista and do shell game and automated chaos quickly for 3/4 storms wake. Then I'll fly to whitegrove chapel and kill rotbough really quick for 3/4 champions of azeroth.
In my experience you can expect to complete 8 paragon chests and 4 2k gold rewards per 30 day period. That's roughly 40k gold per month per toon. In other words, doing this on 3 toons nets you a token per month.
