I have used up about a dozen shiverpeak keys and have found staffs, wands and armor. The chest north of Granite Citadel by the Summit only dropped Drawven armor so far, the chest north of port sledge dropped only staffs & wands, the one south & west of Thunderhead by the Mursaat Jade bows dropped a Mursaat horn bow. I visited each chest about 3 times to try & rule out the random factor. The first couple visits dropped golds, then purple items started dropping.

I'm starting to think that chests are assigned certain types of items, it may be helpful for people to post what kind of drops they're getting at certain locations. If this is correct, it would save time if there is something in particular you are looking for.

I noticed this morning that dark keys were available in perdition rock, so I'll hit that a little later.

Just spent an hour running the 3 chests out of Port Sledge. Got approx 60% gold 40% purple with seemingly no diminishing of drops over time.

Got (approx frmo memory) 50% staffs, 30% rods/wands/cestas 20% weapons (1 v. good gold hammer 1 v. good gold Dragon sword)

Nice items and for now it's great fun since I have been running these for weeks with mostly junk being dropped. However on average I believe the cost of the keys will eventualy outweigh the quality of the drops making it a pointless endevour.

Oh also, the chests seem to move around a lot more than they used to - sometimes I can only find 2 of them...
