Is there any efficient method?

With the seeds only appearing on end rewards there doesn't seem to be any faster way to get them than 2 per quest.

That's what I've been doing, though the pauses for the NPCs to deliver pointless exposition kind of bugs me.

Any shorter quests floating around?

Chains in Eveningstar net a decent amount of seeds. And I think so long as you are at cap you can run epic and get the seed as a reward option anyway?
Try on a shit short quest like impossible demands.

Stay at 30 cap for a while doing some daily r8+

You'll get tremendous amount of RXP (first time bonuses) and seeds by the way.

Most Cogs quests are short, some Barovia, too.
Borderlands works, too, doesn't it?!

Cogs won't reward seeds because there is no quest giver and thus no quest end reward(only XP and loot). Borderlands might work since many quests are short, all bunched together, and you could knock out several of them in a row.

Yes if you're at cap any quest rewards heart seeds. My grip was I can't get 6x seeds because unlike tokens they don't drop in the end chest.

This one could do it. I'll give it a whirl later today.

Gave this one a whirl. Took maybe 10 minutes to get 6 seeds, so better choice that LoD. Bit of a PITA since most of my alts can't get to estar but I'll earn them a few seeds along the way.

Second Borderlands.

8 quests close together. ~ 5min each. 16 seeds in 40 minutes. Repeat on hard.

Don't forget that you can also trade in 100 Commendations of Valor for 1 Heart Seed to help clear some bag space.

Borderlands worked ok. I haven't done the math to figure out if its an faster than Impossible Demands. I do know ID isn't so quick when you don't have high burst DPS.

I knew all about the stances. It was the passive bonuses I'd forgotten. Come on, man, at least be accurate in your trash-talk.

Would hate to be accused of being a sock. So inaccuracy works.

5 minutes on gimp top.

After the first fight (assuming you can't ruin/greater ruin her to death directly) go left, disable the 2 spell wards (dispel or disable traps).
Clear up the very first room.
Free the prisoners.
Kite the bitch in and eliminate.

Assuming you bring your chest pullers with and autoattack, 6vs 1 can't possibly last longer than 5m even if *all* your chest pullers are complete gimps... or go stone form.
I mean to run 6 I sure as fuck hope you use AF. Otherwise that's just nuts.

Oh it wasn't even that hard on my fire sorc. 3 spells to kill her, 3 spells to kill her again, ddoor out. Running too and from the quest giver took longer. My piece of shit barbarian had a bit of trouble getting past her self-heals but probably most of my other chars won't.

Why the hell would anyone bring chest pullers? The quest drops a single piece of shit named item. The heart seeds are end reward for turning in the quest.

Chest pullers need to TR too eventually.
Might as well load up on hearts at the same time so you only do the shit process occasionally...

The chest-pullers never get to TR. They are naked barbarians. Besides, they are getting hundreds of seeds from their chest-pulling dutites.
