Well it seems the standard currently is a group of 5 DwG rits and a UA monk to do the courier between Beetletun and Divinity Coast in 5 minutes.

all bounty rewards can be consider insufficient when compared to the courier... as long as this guy is around and repeatable... War Supplies will continue to drop in price until it reaches a point to where people do not find it worth the time.... and 5-10 mins a run for 12... price is going to be really low as the days go by

Edit:
I hope this courier was a temporary economic ploy effectively lowering demand by flooding supply of these items because otherwise war supplies would be very limited and hard to get, there for high in price... which makes the benefits of having these unattainable for some. If this continues permanently...New content items will have almost no value by Friday...

Well I think they must have thought the rewards were a tad high. After all unlike Nick these gifts have no limit to the number one can purchase.
Add to that the courier and thats alot. So I think they just lowered the reward for that reason.

In my opinion they should nerf the courier award, I'd say nerf it to 3 instead of 12.

A group of 6 takes 5 minutes? I've been doing it with my Spirit Spammer, Talkora, Livia (MM) and Sousuke in about 8-9 minutes.

unless they are planning to add a bunch more bosses, there arent very many right now, so even if they had bounties for them all it would only get us thru like a month or so tops.

I dont get good returns for mine so I think I will start hoarding.

Or make it longer, from Lion's arch to shining blade camp, dunno if cross area travel is possible but right now it is way too easy on a full real player team.

It's also trivially easy H/H, if you have an Ele that can run an ER heal/prot build to keep Falken and the team alive. That's what I'm doing.

Hmm it is quite easy on my necro, ranger and sin build. But my warrior + sabway team keeps on f*cking things up. Could be I am a lousy warrior ofcourse

It should work ok with a war+sabway, if you mess it up go with discord instead it provides more healing.

Well, yeah, it can't really go any faster since you're tied to Falken's walk speed. Fall Back can only increase it so much. The DwG groups spike the spawns in 1-2 sec (spawns are at fixed positions) and move on.

Well I Hope he will stay around... Why must everything be valuable.
Like I had 30 gifts so far by running the courier and the bounty's
and the best thing I had was a BU...the biggest part where scrolls.

I my self even after 5 years don't give a **** about ingame mony. Its all
to have fun. And fun is given by itmes, stones etc. not by something that is worth a stack of ecto's....

But yea thats me...

Just bring some form of stance removal if you're playing on your War. That will make things a lot easier since they abuse blocking stances.

better - today's, Cerris, is worth 10 + 5.

Yesterday's Chronicle mentions Destor in Kessex Peak. That one has got to be worth a lot doesn't it? Maybe that one will be tomorrow...
