Why CoF runs are so cheap?
I know that it is a dumb question. People keep advertising CoF runs for 2k yet other runs like Kathandrax Bogroots, etc easily cost 5k or more yet it takes relatively same amount of time. I'm just curious why people do it for so little. Are CoF runs too easy or lots of people can run this. Thanks.

because at one time there was like 15-20 runners in a single district and it became dirt cheap. plus its very easy to spam a few skills and stay alive while holding aggro. CoF is nothing but standing there and lookin pretty while the foes wack you and take damage.

A dungeon that you can 600 easily on a warrior is not allowed to be more than 2k.
I honestly have an easier time running this on derv than my monk.

The loot is not worth anything. (polymock peice is the best, i think)
plus you cant give away the greens you get.
it is more for title hunters looking for Book/Rep Points, and those that are seeking Carvings, relics and chalices.
at 2k everyone makes money with these runs. even the people being run.

longer than 20mins - most runners are slow...
fastest i've been on was 25mins...

I've been doing CoF runs for some time and times has changed. It is an easy run with less change of fails. And try to ask more you will be the biggest noob of the day, atleast thats what people go say in Doomlore. Very good dungeon for starting 600's. But people getting rude and very disrespectfull against these runners. Lately alot of people mess with the agro, perma's just running trough aggro's not knowing this might kill beginner runners as they wont get hit and not gone get any mana. Most try to be helpfull and stuff but do it if you know what your doing. Further more this run is like win/win for runner and there customers. The chest loot is well very bad but hé for 2k and enough hidden treasures this makes like the only dungeon wich garanties profit for everyone.
- An outpost? Is it so hard to run to SoO? CoK? Or any other? Never had much problems with that small part on my perma neither did it cost much time cus well all you do is run.
- Standing pretty while foes wack you and get dmg? Whats the difference with sliver perma?
- Carvings/Relics/Diessa? A dungeon with 3 drop for obtaining masks that are wanted, and gots lot of WTB'rs in Doomlore (good thing these prices still are worth it)
Besides that I will keep running for 2k and sometimes my free runs.
