Quote:Here are the rewards for collecting the various doodads:

30 Bone Fragments - 1 Insignia of the Crusade
30 Crypt Fiend Parts - 1 Insignia of the Crusade
30 Dark Iron Scraps - 1 Insignia of the Dawn
30 Elemental Cores - 1 Insignia of the Dawn
30 Savage Fronds - 1 Insignia of the Dawn or 1 Insignia of the Crusade
Completing a Writ - 1 Insignia of the Dawn or 1 Insignia of the Crusade

The first turn in gives 200 AD rep. Subsequent turn ins give 10 AD rep.

I had the most luck collecting elemental cores by solo farming the first pylon in DM West. The elementals had a high drop rate and normally dropped 3 or 4 cores at a time. Bone Fragments are extremely easy to collect. Just grind the first farm in WPL. You can also collect minion scourgestones and destroy cauldrons while doing this, so it's a good way to farm AD rep. Crypt Fiend Parts can be obtained in Terrorweb Tunnel, but watch out for the 60+ Crypt Fiend Overseer that wanders in the cave and town. BRD seems to have the best drop rate for dark iron scraps, but I haven't been there yet.

The best place I found for farming these is BRD lava. If you know the shortcut to the anvil and forge you can knockout a run in less than 45 minutes and the elementals can drop BOTH elemental cores and dark iron scraps, the most seeming to be 4x of each. I did 2 runs with a hunter friend and his priest wife. I didn't take a tally of how many we collected but after we did a little trading so we could all have the most turnins, I had enough for 2 dark iron and 1 elemental. Downside? You can only get insignia of the dawn for these items. :(

Edit: After doing this a little bit I think the best sources of crusade insignias are bone fragments. Farm felstone field for these and they build up fast. On a side note you can also build up a lot of mats for the cauldron there for 15 rep turnins.

The best source of dawn insignias is as I stated above. With good gear you can burn through this very fast.
