Question, going to start doing Port Sledge runs...

Should I have higher unlucky, (doing it in HM) or... Lucky... cuz wouldn't it be easier to max lucky, after you have already maxed unlucky? Instead of, maxing lucky first.. then trying to max unlucky?

Where should I run with an ele?

Right now I'm just running in Pongmei using:
Glyph of Swiftness, Shadow Form, Deaths Charge, Storm Djinn's Haste, Dash, Shadow Refuge, Feigned Neutrality, and Shroud of Distress. Thinking about changing either feigned or refuge out for heart of shadow.

Also, do you normally do the entire run? or just til you get a quick chest? or does it depend on where the first chest is?

If running Xaquang for Celestial weapons, which is better: NM or HM?
Also, where are the chests for those weapons? I've only been running to the Vermin boss each time.

@whiteasice: HM, cause nm gives canthan chests which don't count towards chestrunners' title...

@shrimpz... full run always. easier and faster than opening single chests and then wasting time with rezoning and so on

Shrimz · Aug 30, 2010, 03:45 AM // 03:45

system what do you recommend as a build for me to run?

system.fan · Aug 30, 2010, 10:09 AM // 10:09

check the last 3 or 4 sites...i posted enough builds that work with any class =)

system, on page 28(not sure) u posted a run in grothmar from longeyes.
I'm finding chests there 5/10 times in HM, so it's not worth it for me.
Do you know if something affects chest spawns there? Since you wrote 9/10 time for chests.
Still having trouble staying alive in Pongmei Valley tho.

i only need to break about another 840 picks for max unlucky title, so my question is where is a fast place to run for lucky points. i'll be doing it in nm for the extra % on retention rate but most of the runs i usually do take to long. i was thinking ascalon foothills or flame temple corridor in ascalon cause they are small zones but not sure how often or how many chests spawn there. any advice would be nice or just another fast zone would be good too

they drop normal canthan items too, and cocatrice staves, or however it's spelled. And req is totaly random.

got the hang of pongmei ^^. The 3x incoming+fb really help.
System, do you run into the 'sewers' at pongmei or stay on the normal land?
If you run through the sewers you see all the chests, can u also do that if you don't?
ps: for a 4min run that nets 3-5 Chest it's awsome! ty

system.fan · Sep 17, 2010, 04:50 PM // 16:50

if you mean with sewers the area where those am fah assassins/necros are... yes i do run there....

but usually i follow exactly the route i posted.... and if there is no chest you can see it before aggroing to many am fah...

Yes...they also drop canthan items, infact i had many cockatrice staves and stuff like that....but NEVER a good modded celestial....I know i'm particularly unlucky with drops XD

system.fan · Sep 17, 2010, 06:07 PM // 18:07

well... i got tons of "perfect" cele swords/bows/axes there....
but good modded cele staves/scepters are rarer than many ppl know or think....

Tender Care · Sep 18, 2010, 11:10 AM // 11:10

Today I tried the chest run/farm in Domain of Fear during the quest "Holding the line".

Some Tyrian Titans spawn, they can be killed with a 55hp Spoil Victor and often a chest spwan that can drop a Magma Shield or Magma Arm or even Titan Armor.

Hadn't got any good drop in few runs, but i'm gonna try this again...

Minimized Rook · Sep 20, 2010, 02:02 PM // 14:02

exacly, the am fah/afflicted place.
It's a relief to know you can pretty much always follow the route you posted because making that detour requires some skillcasting/time ^^.
I was worried I wouldn't be able to see the chestspawnspot at the portal to the tunnels if I didn't enter that place.
Going back always makes me hang on that hill, it goes further than most ppl would think. Including me

Mirror of Lyss Chest Run

W/A - OQcUE1K6lPPdFDLPSnF6GsblAAA

I use this build - Thanks to whoever made it, it works like a charm!

You should get 5 chest in this run. Locations are marked.

Gold drops I normally get 2 per run, sometimes more sometimes only 1 in NM.
HM yields about 4 - 5 chests with 1 necro tome & 3 golds from the run in 12 mins.
Got some Jeweled Daggers, added Measure for Measure to it & got 2 Sapphires from it xD.

This run takes about 7 mins to complete, once you're used to the spawns in the area.

I recommend using Shadow Form due to high amounts of necros, mesmers, etc in the area.

Ichi The Shadow · Nov 07, 2010, 06:52 PM // 18:52

I am looking for a Low lvl area that I can chest run in normal mode for the sole purpose of Lucky points as I already have Unlucky/Treasure hunter completed. Does anyone have any good spots to farm this?

Thx

Was talking with someone about chest running in the undercity (cantha), was wondering if anyone had a map for this since I couldn't find one in this topic yet. Checked all thirty pages

Thanks in advance!
