I like FoW, problem is, Keys are 1500g, man thats a lot

And what realy annoys me, is when u farm like mad for 1500g for a key, You use Endure, you open a chest... It drops a gold. Endure runs out, u die and sombody sez "I'll res you" then waits, nicks ur drop, THEN res' u

Yes...except when u open that chest u spent all the time running to and it turns out to be purple. I prefer FoW chest runs with real people just because they can test the chests (so i wont wasts 1.5k on a purple chest) and they can run ahead and take the hits .

Raisu Exlporable - Agreed.....

I also run some kurzick chests in drazach thicket as part of a solo boss farm. Usually get 3 bosses, 3-4 chests (depending on placement) per run. Drops from kurzick chests are not absolutely brilliant (but some are ). Have gotten a few perfect mods and low req weapons, keys are also only 600gp.

I've never seen that happen once... Also the lesson here is, open the damn chest if you can pick it up! I've had to res countless people from the Tower of Strength area from the middle of 2 patrols and 3 groups just because i know where the safe spot is. Then of course i res them, they run in grab there item, die and send them all my way again!

Tschh, Raisu is bad drops. Nothing to see there. Move on.

I dunno, my chest runner isn't too far into factions, so I've been doing a lot of Nahpui runs. They are OK. Gold chests there seemed common for a while, but I havn't gotten many lately.
