I just stopped looting trash. Made more money off stacks of shards anyway. Typically, I start off with ToC, because there are still some 219 epics I want, Then UK>UP>Draktharon>Gundrak>HOL>Violet Hold>CoS>Hearth>Nexus. Nets 37-ish badges and can be done in about 4 hours. Kind of depends on how much time I have to kill.

HoS, Old Kingdom, and Oculus are all on my list of "don't bother", and Azjol Nerub hasn't come up as a daily yet, so I haven't had a reason to see how good it is.
