Hey I am a W/Mo and was wondering how much profit I can make from chest runs. Im wondering where I should go to do it, what build, and how much they keys are and the profit I can make from the runs.

Thanks in advance.

The most common chest run locations are (for 600gp keys) in chapters 1-3 are:

Shiverpeak keys;
-Ice Floe (hexes)
-Witman's folly

Darkstone Keys;
-Hell's Precipice

Kurzick keys;
-Melandru's Hope (hexes, knockdowns, cripple)
-Drazach Thicket (hexes, knockdowns, cripple)

Luxon keys;
-Silent Surf (hexes, knockdowns)
-Gyala Hatchery Explorable (hexes, knockdowns)

Forbidden keys;
-Raisu Palace (hexes)

Vabbian keys;
-Mirror of Lyss (hexes, cripple)

Ancient Elonian keys;
-various desolation zones

Your profit will depend heavily on the drops - due to the market for weapon mods, Elonian chests are more stable somewhat as you can sell inscriptions even if the skin/req is poor. Your build should contain a few running skills (Charge, Sprint), skills to counter the things you'll encounter (hexes, cripples, knockdowns, etc. I noted the ones I remember by zone on the list), and some healing (healing signet and a signet of stamina for the healthcap boost).
