There are different tasks for bigfoots burden quest, some of them aren't dangerous at all, some of them are pretty annoying.

What is the best combination for those tasks and what is the fastest way to maximize the reward, you get?

Also, in which order should the tasks be done?

Level info: 130!

The quickest way I find to do this quest is as follows. Take all of the available missions:

  • Crystal Keeper
  • Raiders of the Lost Spark
  • Exterminators
  • Mushroom Digger
  • The Tinker's Bell
  • Matchmaker
  • Spore Gathering [1]
  • Grindstone Hunt

I start in the first area doing the Matchmaker mission. As I am looking for the proper crystal I do the Crystal Keeper and Raiders of the Lost Spark missions at the same time so all 3 of these will be completed.

I then move onto the Mushroom Digger mission. While in this area I kill the Wigglers and am usually able to kill enough for the mission Extermination. If not I drop down to the Mushroom Gardens (where you do Spore mission) on my way to the Repair missions to finish any extra kills I need.

Once Mushroom Digger and Extermination are complete I run around the Golem Workshop to quickly finish The Tinker's Bell. I then go to the hot spot to finish off the Grindstone Hunt mission.

I then turn in all of the missions at once collecting all rewards.

[1] Spore mission: I didn't mention this mission above as I do this slightly different. Many people drop the Gnomish Spore Gatherer on the ground or you can buy extra from the NPC Gnomally. I collect 40+ of these and as long as you are on the mission you can fill multiple containers. I fill all of the containers at once and store them in depot. I then grab a completed container before I start the missions and the NPC will give you another empty one as well. This allows me to do all of the above missions without having to take the time to collect the spores. If you are filling multiple containers at once you can fill 3-4 containers each time you find the color spores you need. This allows you to take an hour to do this once and fill all your containers which will save you from doing it every day until your containers are empty. Then I just go and fill them all at once again.
