Optimal comm grinding route

Start in evening star and go counter clockwise:

EH outbreak
EH thorn and paw
EE ID
EH outbreak
EE rusted blades
EH broken chains
EH/EE death undone

All of these quests are 4 mins or less on my caster, so maybe 30-40 mins of IRL play time.  This comes out to about 300 comms/hour or 14 hours for 4200 comms.

My rotation is similar, but I also do EE trial by fury, EE maze of madness, EH trial by fire, EH avithoul.

Takes almost an hour for the whole lot.

Still pretty grindy for $10 in TPs...  I'll just be running what I want to run and collecting (not auto gather, dammit) comms as I work on other stuff.  I just hate how much Ghostbane of riposte loot I am missing...  I might buy some eHearts if I get bored, especially so Tolero can make more owl bear costumes and bake more cookies...

One thing for everyone who is a "skeptic" on this issue: Insurance companies are basing their underwriting on the assumption that it is real. They are refusing to write policies on homes that are likely to be in danger from rising seas 20 years from now, even though the resale rate of the homes is so high that they could keep writing policies for another 10 years and still not have to pay out on 1 policy in 5, but that would be irresponsible. Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

It is fairly natural to assume that the fair price for the pot is the fair value of the resources I needed to make the pot plus the fair value of my labor.

Eh, I enjoy zerging those quests, they all also happen to be easy to do in shitty karma spheres.  Doesnt really work out to be grindy by the time I reach 28 (slowly across a bunch of toons)

I'm playing casually and I'm around 3000 CoVs now. I will get my first epic heart with CoVs. I guess I will continue like 1%.

That's fair.  I had plenty of TR "grinds" that I enjoyed.  Some of my usual eVon3 runs now are really more of an excuse to BS with the usual group of guys I end up running with as well. Now to make the challenges more fun to finish some cloaks.

Thorn and paw isnt so bad.  Energy burst/draconic breath kill all mobs in one hit without fail, opening the vine doors. Ignore the druids, kill the corrupted seeds and ddoor.    I'm pretty sure it's faster than 4 minutes, but I always account for a lot of fudge factor.

  I'm going to be having fun with my holiday purchases off Steam for a long while rather than go back to DDO.  $10 for a heart is too much, people can have so much more fun with it elsewhere, and we are.
