Question Sorrows Furnace chest "farming" Q

This may be the wrong board to be posting this:

If you were able to make it to Sorrow's furnace (Hard Mode) and open the unlocked chests, would they drop gold items? I've been trying this but have had no luck making it down to SF with my dervish or 55 and figured it would save me some time if someone on guru knew the answer.

Thanks.

Unlocked Quest Chests do not give gold items.

I've been hearing accounts of people getting golds from the Kilroy chest, have you done any extensive testing on this?

Yeah I'd like to hear from a couple of other people about this subject. It would only make sense for the chests to have golds, since it's so difficult to even make a successful run down there. We don't really know until someone that has done it multiple times speaks up here.

What needs to occur rather then "hearing from" is getting at least three different screenshots from three different players in order to confirm/deny such.

These screenshots should include EACH of the three chests that are avaiable during this quest, and should also include the Hard Mode icon in the top left corner (default spot) of your screen.

Yeah that's the only sure way of knowing. Even if they did drop golds, the people that know they do are probably smarter to not tell anyone about it.

True. The only way to find out is to chest run yourself. I will run these chests and will post the result later.

Did you notice any difference at all doing it in HM? Maybe lower req's?


Also if anyone has gotten golds in unlocked chests in UW or FoW, please add in... because I believe all 3 of these areas drop the same rares.

Nope nothing lower than req 9 dropped. Only difference I noticed was less items like I stated.

The DD chests were removed over a year ago.

Uhh...why am I not surprised you had no luck making it down there as a 55? Seriously, take a better build if you want to beat SF quests, not a solo farm build.

SF is henchable. Just flag your heroes out when you opening the chests.

Ive henched my way through the Kilroy quest in HM around a dozen times now just to test the rumors I have heard about golds dropping. All grapes, 76 delicious grapes.

The stats on the drops dont appear any better either. Might as well go through twice as fast in normal mode if you ask me.
