Estimating Echoes per Action

A thieves' cache! gets treasures with values 0–80. A Shrine of the Deep Blue Heaven gets treasures in the range 0–160. The average value of Uncovering an Unpredictable Treasure: 0–80 is 27.03 Echoes; the average of 0–160 is 54.67 Echoes. This doesn't include other rewards that the expeditions may bring.

Thanks to the revamp that is Favours: The Docks, the number of actions which are spent on preparing for and undergoing expeditions can be better minimized than before. There is a guide for minimizing the number of actions for Shrine of the Deep expeditions, which can be read here. Incidentally, this type of expedition can yield any of the non-Fate rewards which have been listed above. It can also yield an Eyeless Skull instead of any of the above.

These options generate (2 + UaUT/10) CP of Connected: to the respective college, and (4 + UaUT/2) CP of Making Waves. Hence, you may want to consider the exact treasure value before making the decision to donate.

Eyeless Skulls are not Unpredictable Treasures and cannot be donated.
