Z Keys - Guild Wars Forums

Which method of using Zkeys is the most profitable? Selling for 4.5-5k at gtob or Actually opening the zaishen chest? What are some of the drops that you can get that make it worth 5k?

There's no telling because opening the chest is based 100% on luck. You could get a crystalline, you could get a flask of firewater. It's all chance. I've opened it hundreds of times, and would have said with my luck i would've made MUCH more profit by selling the keys.

1. use search http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10228998

2. It is a gamble, it will always be more profitable to just sell the keys. You could use 1 key and get a req 8 Eternal blade, or you could get a firewater. Better just to sell.

Azure mist · May 29, 2008, 09:33 PM // 21:33

Alright got it I think im going to try to open it like a few times then if i get some epic blade ill stop opening. But i know it will be a chronic urge to keep opening the chest if i do get somehting good lol. Ill just open it like 2-3 times get my firewater and work on my drunkard title ha.

Selling them is much better than using them. It's basically playing the lottery, and everyone knows who truly wins in that...

mazza558 · May 29, 2008, 10:24 PM // 22:24

Selling them by far. You can get about 50k a month. It's great!

Alia Stormkiller · May 29, 2008, 10:24 PM // 22:24

I just got back into the game after a year layoff. What are the Zkeys and where are they used?

Daenara · May 29, 2008, 10:25 PM // 22:25

My husband used about 1000 keys recently.... and has about 300 ecto to show for it. So it's really not a profitable way to make money..

At least, I know nothing about the top guilds and best hero battle players. But I would've (if curiosity didnt get the best of me) made 75k by just putting the top 8 in the order they start in for HB and the ATs.

I actualy made a huge profit by opening the chest
I had opened it around 600times when theywere worth 2-3k and about 70 at 5k
In one drop I got more than all those keys combine ( everlasting transfiger tonic) and still got about 100 cremes and firewaters each +250 to my wisdom title and quite a few rare skins like celstial compass gloom shield etc

For it was far more profitable but may not b in most cases

Zkeys (Zaishen Keys) are keys you can use to open the Zaishen Chest on Isle of the Nameless.

Ec]-[oMaN · May 29, 2008, 11:27 PM // 23:27

I've made about 1mill selling keys and used about 1.5mill worth of keys. By far selling them would be more profitable.

Cab Tastic · May 29, 2008, 11:32 PM // 23:32

Do you feel lucky?

I have opened that chest a grand total of twice. Second drop was one of those phantasmal tonic things. (which I sold).

Molock · May 30, 2008, 12:31 AM // 00:31

I opened the chest 250 times, the best I got was a q11 command amethyst aegis, since the title was introduced I have been selling all my keys and have made a lot more gold...

Destiny2097 · May 30, 2008, 02:28 AM // 02:28

some people are incredibly lucky and get a super rare drop with only a few keys, some use...a lot...and end up being far worse off than if they had sold the keys. for me i would have made quite a bit selling all the zkeys but i always use them, no fun/excitement for me in just selling. generally speaking i would say selling is definately more profitable than using, especially with a lot of prices on rares falling.

Selling them makes you more cash, using them puts hair on your chest.
