I've gotten as many as 7 chests in a Mirror of Lyss run.

Also you can start in mihanu and just to the wester third of the map and see up to 3 chests spawn. Then restart in Mihanu.

Anyone have a comment on Cathedral Of Flames? I've been running level one of that and can hit two chests in under 2 minutes. I'm a ranger with Paragon/W hero's egging me on.

whenever i vanq that place with 600/Smite, the amount of chests i get is fantastic. i haven't actually tried running the area yet, but i suppose it can't be too hard. it's a great place to CR Vabbian skins, too.

Default FoW Chest Run Build For W/Me

Well, One Day I Was In ToA And I Joined A Chest Running Group, I Currently Had My Drok's Run Build On And They Entered When I Wasnt Ready, So Instead Of Complaining I Just Ran.

Profession|W/Me

Attributes
Strength|12+1+1= 14
Tactics|12+1= 13

Build
["I Am Unstoppable"] [Soldier's Speed] [Expel Hexes] ["I Am The Strongest"] [Sprint] [Healing Signet] [Signet Of Stamina] [Feel No Pain]

"NOTE'
This Isnt My Build And I Tweeked It A Little For Chest Runs.

Equipment
Full Knight's Armor
Superior Vigor
Superior Absorption
Minor Tactics And Strength

Weapons
Any Weapon Will Do, But A +45/-2 Shield Is Helpful

Usage
As You Enter FoW, cast [["I Am The Strongest"] and [[Signet Of Stamina].

Use [[Soldier's Speed] And [[Sprint] To Run

As You Run By Skeletal Creatures Be Ready To Use [[Expel hexes] To Take Off Slow Downs. Also When You go by the Ancient Skales be ready to use [[Expel Hexes] also to take off major degen.

Use [["I Am Unstoppable"] to instantly take off cripple and to avoid getting knocked down by Abyssals.

Healing: Always Find A Safe Spot To Use [[Healing Signet] And To Alive Long Enough To Find A Safe Spot, Use [[Feel No Pain].

More Notes
This Build Can Get Through All Of The Burning Forest, The Beach, The Cave, And The Great Battle Fields, I Advise You Not To Go Through The Forest Unless You Know Your Way Through It.

I Will Add Pictures Maps And Safe Spot To Use [[Healing Signet] In Certain Areas.

Good Luck And Have Fun And Remember This Isnt My Build I Saw It On PvX Wiki.

One Last Note: My Norn Rank Is Max So I Dont Know If It Will Work With A Lower Rank Of 7.

They're not commonly ran cos they don't add to your title and don't tend to be max dmg.

to be honest, I wouldnt waste time chest running Hell's anymore.

People used to run it just because it was harder to survive alone and it was one of the only things to run. Now, it is pointless, but if you want one still i should be able to get 1.

Here's the build I use to run literally everywhere:

[skill]Deadly Paradox[/skill][skill]Auspicious Incantation[/skill][skill]Arcane Echo[/skill][skill]Shadow Form[/skill][skill]Mindbender[/skill][skill]Dash[/skill][skill]Dark Escape[/skill]*Optional*

You can easily perma SF anywhere, even with certain energy denial spirits to some extent, although not forever. The last slot can be used for anything, if I'm chest running in, say Raisu Palace I'll use [skill]Shadow of Haste[/skill] to get the chests at the big monster spawns. If I'm just running I'll most likely bring along an anti-KD skill like [skill]"I Am Unstoppable"[/skill] or [skill]Dwarven Stability[/skill] and some beer lol.

Once you get the hang of perma SF (need a 20% enchant weapon, not a staff with HSR) running almost becomes relaxing. With the anti-KD/Cripple of IAU, its a no-brainer. Mindbender isn't expressly needed, but its nice to have, for Drok's runs I'd probably switch it with a shadow stepping skill of some sort, to help avoid getting trapped, such as in the troll tunnel.

Fow chest run on my derv/anything:

[vital boon] [mystic regeneration] [enchanted haste][signet of mystic speed] [I am unstoppable] [feel no pain] [great dwarf armor] [vow of silence]

[feel no pain] it's only in critic situation when u don't have the time to cast [mystic regeneration] and [vow of silence] cos u may get an hex/stripped/attack so u have a permanente regen on !
[i am unstoppable] obviously in case such as: get stucked in that passage where the ghost Miko is and abyssals begin to knock you down; also good for forest where u may get crippled by traps by skeletons or crippled by those wurms.

gear: gemstone axe of enchanting 20%, +5 energy ///// Amethyst Aegis of devotion +45hp^enchant,inscr. -5/20%.

Sorry for offtopic, but what was the button you press to make nearby chests
"visible"
(to make their name show up, just like pressing CTRL makes enemies names to show up)
used to do chest running before, but then I had 1½ year break from Guild Wars and forgot almost everything

Nice build, ild give it a try.
I dont know your attributes but why not faithful intervention instead of vital boon? one less thing you have to worry abt refreshing and it heals you when you need. A clear downside is the lack of + max hp but uld only normaly have to worry abt sig of mstic speed, and renewing vow. might not be a good idea in places where your hp goes down 50% a lot.

Don't lie. There are ALWAYS just 5 chests in Mirror of Lyss.
