For those not aware, one of the objectives for the last part of the season 1 journey is to purify 10,000 Seeds of Hatred. There are also objectives to purify 1,000 and 5,000 in Chapter 4 and Champion (Chapter 6) respectively. If you don't like PVP but still want to complete all the season journey objectives, now's your chance while everybody is busy spamming dungeons and quests to level!
It took me about 20 minutes to collect 11,000. Didn't see one other player or have to kill people to take their Seeds. Here's what I did:
- Run around looking for the special PVP area chests that drop 1,000+ seeds.
- Complete the objectives in the area to get batches of 1,000+ seeds.
- Kill elite packs to get 200+ seeds.
- Kill the little enemies that spawn while the ritual is completing. It seems they have a higher chance to drop seeds than other enemies.
Non season you typically have people 20+ levels ganking you. I've seen level 70+ flagged people even on world tier 1. It's stupid. Season start is probably also a good time to farm non season shards, if you want to unlock all the cosmetics.
