20% enchantments weapon.

Basically, keep djinn haste up, use dash to break aggro in HM, use deadly+SF while opening chests. Feigned neutrality and Shadow refuge helps a lot against degen hexes. Can use it almost everywhere with a little bit of time practicing

sweet, ill get right on trying this and give you feedback.

Ok, I just tryed this on the Poisoned Outcrops run. I did manage to make it even though i died once, that was on NM. (btw got 4 chests and 3 lockpick saves) So probably a little more practice and this will work.

Thanks I'll also be testing this one out.

posting here my favourite chestrun route. told several ppl about this ingame but i guess i'm posting it for everyone now.
this is simply the fastest and easiest HM chestrun u may find.

leviathan pits --> hatchery explorable.
if u find 2 chests in the big reefclaw/jaqui plain just /resign and start over. ^ the plain run is usualy 90 seconds including loading times.
should u find 0 or only 1 chest just go on. there are up to 5 chests in the map.
after 15000+ chests i can safely say it's 65-70 HM chests / hour.

Interesting drops are Jade swords / axes. canthan hand axe (the non inscr one) emblazoned defenders, outcast shields and oni blades (only from chests surrounded by onis).
anyway. here's the vid showing a full run should u find no chests at the beginning. there might be a 5th chest in the west part of the map, but it wasnt profitable time wise to go find it. 4 in 3:20 was fine
ignore me dying before picking up the last chest item, i lagged a bit and naga surronded me
have fun

Just use R/A .. the usual sin skills and ranger running skills, deaths charge is decent here, also shadow form is to.

[The Far Shooter]

okay, does anyone have the route for this run??

And also... if you have a titan quest open e.g. Defend Droknar's Forge do the chests have titan stuff in them? and what places, only mineral springs or...?

[Quartermaine]

hi just took a 6 month hiatus from GW and am looking to finish my CR title, 1 queston do req 8's still NOT drop in HM?

Max dmg Req 8 from chest? from what I've seen NO. from monsters or killing stuff NO (but some around the forums say YES and i have yet to see any my self)


***EDIT****
I meant GOLD drops.. sorry mybad

[royal mercenary]

already got a r7dropped but that was while vanquishing, but they do drop

[expounder2]

is chest running in hard mode profitable? Like, if i bought a bunch of lock picks and opened chests, could i make enough back to pay for the lock picks? Also, what can you get from chests that is worth something. I know you can get purples and golds and unidentified runes. Is there something good to look for?

[placebo overdose]

you can get tomes and other stuff mainly money is dependant on luck and how many chests you open
@royal i was under the impression that req 7's dont drop anymore so for now imma call you a liar until i get a screenie

[The Far Shooter]

Elite tomes would probably get you the bulk of your money back. But also the fact on how many lockpicks you retian effects how much you will spend and what your net profit would be.

i dropped a 15-22 14^50 FDS Q8 a while ago (but purple :/ )
from monsters in NM though

[Matt_Night]

any advice for an efficient chest running GW:EN route guys?
those maps just seem to be big as life... :|

[cellardweller]

I'm getting 45-50 chests per hour running Fronis Irontoe's Lair. Best of all, its doable by any class and pretty much impossible to die.
