This.

Just did Strength of Snow a couple of times, and every one in two to four enemies drops a cc shard.

Strength of Snow can be done in 6 mins and gives you ~15 shards including the reward, plus 5 holiday items 4 are always the same the fifth one is the one that could be that mini polar bear

so you can get around 150 ccshards an hour doing SoS + all the other goodies you get from the chest.

Would it make more sense to open up the Wintersday Gifts you trade the shards in for, and sell the contents? Or just sell the Gifts themselves? Personally, I am not going to use any of the stuff, except the Peppermint Candy Canes possibly (already got a stack )

Let me try

You fools should be farming collector items. While doing that, you may earn candy cane shards as well. That is great, if you understand my meaning.



With that said, I don't know of a farm that can get you enough collector items for 5 holiday items AND drop 15 shards in under 10 minutes.

Anyone got an answer for this? I am not really up to speed on the pricing of these things.

55 strength of snow runs<>little over 1,000 shards

straight to the heart yeilds around twice as many shards if not more because of the numerous amount of enemies killed

(both rift warden quests)
