Run the last mission of the game, you get a chance to find Magma Shields.

I'm guessing the OP wants Treasure Hunter title. If I'm right, I doubt he'll want to CR Hell's since theres only going to be one chest near the end. If you really don't care about the drops, outside Port Sledge is probably the fastest way to go.

Any good reason for this? They don't steal chest drops so why not?

For fastest way to get title, run port sledge, even though it gives really bad drops most of the time (besides the occasional gold fellblade). If you want best drops, run last mission or fow. For a good mix, run places like ice floe for mursaat items or perdition rock.

you could also farm in the tomb of primeval kings, each run will give you 4 phantom chests(same as those in the underworld) and you have a chance to get an ecto along the way as well as greens once you kill the darkness in the end...

He wants to chest run, not farm. That's 4 chests in like 45 minutes to an hour. In that time you could pop at the minimum three times that.

Yeah henchies severly lower the drop rate of good items when CR so its better to just go solo with it.

Well I know that henchies don't effect key chest drops, but do they effect quest drops like fow quests the little sort of free box stuff? Do you have to flag them away so you get the drop or do you always get it?
