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.
I won’t be purifying a single seed, I hate the fact that they force PvP in these zones, I want nothing to do with them whatsoever!
I was able to do it at 10am without seeing a single person. You don’t actually pvp, you just kill enemies and click a thing. I got like 4 levels and upgrades and mats and gold while doing it so it wasn’t a wasted 30 mins. You can turn off cross play to lower any possibility of running into people.
I just popped in there with cross network play off, and you’re right it was totally empty! Took me about an hour to do all 10,000, didn’t see a single other person the whole time. Great tip!
I agree, nothing ruins a PvE game more than forced PvP.
I used to play The Division, and there’s a lot of other examples.
