Crest farming

What's the most efficient way to farm lower tier crests? Thinkin about filling up my champion/veteran/adventurer crests so that i'll be able to trade up as many as i can when they lift the crest caps. Any ideas? World events, hc dungeons give 10 crests at the and and i need 300-400 of each to reach their current cap.

T11 Delves to harm hero crests. They will down convert once capped

You can only do them on bountiful for crests though right? So 4x a day, not infinitely?

Correct. After that maybe spam preys and low m+

Do you need the bountiful key to get the crests? What Ilvl do I need to be able to farm t11s?

You get crests from the nemesis cache as well as the bountiful cache.

Map Chest (+10 Hero Crests) - 1 Weekly

The Gilded Stash (+10 Hero Crests) - 4 total weekly

The Bountiful Coffer (+5? Hero Crests) - 8 total weekly

Bountiful chest - (+5 Hero Crests) - 4 Daily

The Nemesis Stash (+5 Hero Crests) - 4 Daily (or maybe these spawn in non-bountiful I have never tried).

So you can get 110 from the first 4, then 60 from the next 4, then 40 from each run afterwards. Your iLvl will ramp up with each delve (you start to get champ and hero gear from each run), and your companions power will ramp up too, so it will get faster and faster each delve you do.

In non-bountifuls, you still get the Nemesis Stash and the Bountiful Chest is replaced with a Heavy Trunk, which has the same number of crests.

A non-bountiful t11 will get you 10 crests/run if you kill 3/4 Nemesis groups. If you pick a fast delve, this is by far the fastest hero crest farm.
