Just a quick question. ARe chest drops better in hard mode?

Also

Does party size effect chest running or is that exclusive to farming?

Yes, and no.
I'm convinced chest drops in HM are better. From the 15 I've opened so far, one got me a purple and 10 had perfect upgrades.

Haven't seen any good chest drops yet, my best from the 14 locked chests opend was a warrior tome (non elite).

Party Size shouldn't have any effect at all since they just drop for he/she who opens it. tough it might spread the damage a bit and make it easier to survive the run as a group....

Where are you guys Chest Running? And how many lockpics have you used up?

I am finding it hard to run 600g chests with 1.5k lockpicks...

This is bull crap also, i opened 5 chest, all purple and all the lockpicks broke

onerabbit · Apr 20, 2007, 11:55 PM // 23:55

yes, I believe that since you've opened 5 chests, you're equipped with enough experience to dictate how chests in HM work.

Its not the drops that affect me, its the breaking lockpicks.

MMSDome · Apr 21, 2007, 12:28 AM // 00:28

opened 4 got 2 purples but also got 2 perfect golds with low reqs.

Vyral · Apr 21, 2007, 12:33 AM // 00:33

After 15 chests in hard mode (Gate of Secrets), got 4 golds, 11 grape and broke every single lockpick (allegedly I have a 18% chance to save).

Golds seemed to be of normal quality to me.

Evilsod · Apr 21, 2007, 02:19 AM // 02:19

These lockpicks are bullshit. I havea 23% chance to be able to reuse 1. I've opened 5 chests so far. Only once did my lockpick not break (fair enough... thats about right) and 4 of them were purple shite.

S h e r r y · Apr 21, 2007, 03:47 AM // 03:47

hard mode chests own. i bought *1* lockpick.. it lasted 5 chests and i got sup vigor and elite warrior tome and a req10 jade sword (crap mods tho... YAY 20% vs trolls!!!!!)

krypt1200 · Apr 21, 2007, 03:53 AM // 03:53

Well, i have used up about 18 lockpicks, ive found an elite monk tome/monk tome/req9 gold mursaat hammer w/ no dmg mod/

thats the main good stuff, some are illusion staves, lots of offhands, my gold/purple ratio is real good though. id say 3-5:1 gold/purp?

iono, heading my sin to hells precipice for some further testing. Ice floe is decent, thats where i went to hunt mursaat stuff, i pissed myself when i found the req9 gold mursaat, but RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOed it over when it had no dmg mod, im still a lil upset.
