Chest Runs: Still Worth It?
Recently my fellow guildie told me that after the "Double Drop Weekend" all the chests when, quote 'bleh' and arnt worth running anymore.
Ive been thinking maybe this is true, i have been running many, many chests in Nightfallen and out of many, many items only had 2 gold drops(a crapy armor, and a -20hp chalice)>.<
My Question: Do you still think Chest Running is worth it? Am i just running in a bad spot?
Id like to know people's feeback before a squander more money on keys.

well personally i think that some of the most "valued" areas have been a bit over run, but some areas are still "worth it"... give it some time and itll prolly be back up again... people just have to calm down on certain zones

Depends where you run. I went FoW chest running a few times when I happened to drop by ToA and some guy was offering to pay the whole fee. 14/20 gold.

only chest run in places where the key sells for 600g minimum at the merchant..preferably more.
best places to chest run--FoW, DoA, raisu palace, realm of torment and the fire islands for more high end-ish chests.
good places to chest run--echovolad forest/jade sea, sorrows furnace, vabbi, the desolation...ive gotten great golds out of all of these...especially vabbi and echovolad forest (req 8 15^50 gothic dual axe ftw..)

Maybe ill wait to chest run in DoA, but people seem to get nice stuff from Nightfallen Jahi.

req 10 sephis axe from poisoned outcrops. They're totally worth it, and you get to grind a title.

Your skills are kinda right, take Shields Up, Endure Pain, Remove Hex, and Purge Conditions, instead of HB, Smite Hex, Holy Veil, and Balth Spirit...

i've gotten 2 elemental swords running in the sulfurous wastes (in wurms). you need to be really patient though, cause after a while the drop rates kinda get tossed down the drain for a day or two, so you need a backup place instead of the same one all the time
